Griffin Survivor Play for Siri Remote

[JBaby_9783]

I just got my case! I just opened and installed it. First impressions are great! It adds great grip and thickness. It adds much needed weight to the remote, but it isn't heavy at all. It just feels like a remote now. It still lighter than a Dish Hopper remote. It may impede edge clicking. I'm not really sure yet. Truth is I always found the edge click to be awkward. When I want go back 10 seconds I just use Siri.

Now that I'm used to the case I don't think it interferes with edge clicking because you don't have to be right on the edge to activate 10sec rewind/fast forward. I don't think edge clicking is awkward at all anymore because the remote isn't slipping out of my hand. I'm doing it more now than I ever did before.

Here are a few photos with the case. Slightly different from when it was announced (mostly the coverage on the bottom half of the remote -- the top was uncovered in the prototype).

I like it -- seems to fit well and gives more to hold on to than stock. The material on the bottom half helps with orientation.

Makes it look like a Wii remote ...

It does very similar!

Would be surprised if they don't offer a darker color at some point.

I think it'd look nice in black. I like the translucent clear though because I like being able to see the .
