Review - Fuse Plus You Mossy Oak Phone Case

A while back I was contacted by FusePlusYou.com. They wanted to know if I would like to try out one of their camo cell phone cases. I love my iPhone, but have never used a belt case, so I decided to give them a try. They sent me their "Mossy Oak BreakUp Infinity Camo Large Phone Case with Strap".

I'll be honest, I didn't expect much. The belt cases I have seen other people use are nice, but I don't think most of them could stand up to the riggers of a day in the woods. So, the question is:

Is the Fuse Plus You cell phone case rugged enough to be useful for an outdoorsman?



Poodle not included

The short answer is surprisingly, Yes!

From the moment I took this case out of its padded mailer, I was struck by its construction. It is made of rigid, very heavy duty material. If you are familiar with Maxpedition you will understand the type of material I am talking about. It is rugged. Very rugged.


The high quality clip is sized perfectly to fit on my 1 1/2" wide gun belt. It goes on easily, but stays on well. 

If you are like me, you will not trust your several hundred dollar phone to a clip. I have had knives, flashlights, even a pistol stripped off my hip while crawling though heavy brush. No clip stands a chance in brush.


Apparently Fuse Plus You thought of this and included a lanyard anchor to the case.



With a little bit of paracord, this will never get left behind.

I normally keep a rubber OtterBox case on my phone. Unfortunately, I had to remove this case before my iPhone would fit. Small gel cases will work with this belt case, so that is not a big deal. 


The iPhone nestles in nicely and is easily accessible due to the magnetic clasp. I would have liked a stronger magnet, but have not had a problem with the case opening by itself. 



The best thing about this phone case is not that it holds a phone, but that it is perfect for a point and shoot camera!


I have been looking for years for a good camera case. Now I found one! Every time I need my camera it is at the bottom of a pocket or bag, out of reach. Ever since I started carrying my camera in this case I have gotten more and better pictures! It is always right there at my fingertips!

This case is priced at a reasonable $19.99. I have paid double for cases not nearly as nice! Check out their other cases, including pink camo for the ladies!

This review is my honest opinion. I was not paid to do this review. Fuse Plus You did give me the case at no cost.
