I wanted to get a nice case for my phone so I ordered 3 cases by CruzerLite. A Blue, Black and Smoke. Each has their own issue which makes me wonder what happened? The quality used to be so good but now 3 faulty cases makes me question this.

Black - creased by the volume keys. Doesn't sit correctly on the bezels.

Blue - Issues on the bottom. Clicks in but the bottom isn't covered at all.

Smoke - Fits best of all but still not perfect and is apparent that's not the design. Doesn't cover the bezels on the sides but covers the bottom and top.

Such a shame. Anyone have a good experience? Their customer service is top notch and I've used their cases before. My sister is using one on her Droid RAZR Maxx still and it's holding up great.

I have a cruzerlite case for my HTC One X and it's fine. Although I only ordered one, so I can't verify if I got lucky or not :/

It may just be a Note 3 case issue. Either way 3 cases with 3 faults isn't something I consider acceptable. Its disappointing since I really like them but what can I do?

What devices were you getting Cruzerlite cases for before the Note 3? It might be that it is a popular phone and that they're rushing to get them out...

That may be it but still not good. I've used them on RAZR Maxx, Droid Maxx and Note 2 with good results. This phone not so much.

Did you get those cases immediately after you bought the phones? I didn't get my Cruzerlite case until about 4 weeks after I got my One X.

Yes, within the first month of the cases being offered. However, I don't want to give CruzerLite a bad name since their cases are for the most part top notch. I just cant understand how the Note 3 batch was done so poorly. The reviews seem positive so some how I must have ended up with 3 bad ones. LOL

Not your day I guess :p I would buy another to see how it's like, but I personally would be a little concerned if 3 cases were in bad shape.

I'm trying the Diztronic case next. My only gripe is they're slippery but I do like that its thin and the buttons are covered. It should also allow me to use my dock. If that fails and I dont like the Note with a slippery case (worked fine on Droid Maxx) then I will just ditch the dock and go back to the Spigen Bounce case. Its a tiny bit bigger but overall a great case. :)

I had a good time with Diztronic. Downside is the one I got was relatively thin. I prefer my cases to protect my phone and be thick. I wish you good luck with whatever brand you get :)

I prefer thin. I've yet to drop a phone but I just want protection for the edges when I set the phone down or bump it. I've had good luck with my one Diztronic so if its thicker TPU like my Maxx case was I'll be happy.

*thicker as in not bendable with no force. Its minimal protection.

Understandable. My Diztronic was delivered this morning so I'll see how I like it once I get home. I hope I like it or I'll be back to an SGP Bounce lol.

I expect to like it. I loved it on the Maxx minus the grip but that wasn't a deal breaker. :)

Got my Diztronic case and I love it. Buttons are covered but press just as easily as uncovered and it feels great. The front has a lip on the edges and the back has a lip around the camera. :)

Sturdy case. Bezel completely covered.
