Review Overview
SCORE
GREAT!
Id America has created some really unique products in the past, but combining them into one package and allowing you to get decent protection while being able to flaunt your good looks is even better. The Cushi Plus Complete Protection Kit is what id America came up with. Does the Cushi kit win us over? Find out in the full review after the break!
What we noticed right away was the design of the decal included in the Cushi Plus Complete Protection Kit. Written on the back was “I DON’T GIVE A SHIFT,” via keyboard keys. Our only thought: that’s awesome. We can always count on id America coming up with some out of the box designs.
A Cushi Band was also included in the Plus Protection Kit. It possessed a clear band, with covered keys for both the volume buttons as well as the standby/wake key. They provided great feedback and had a great feel to them. With the rubber like front and back, the Cushi Band also provided a good amount of shock protection. The Cushi Band also fit snug, with no excess wiggle.
The decal included not only covered the entire back portion of the iPhone 5 but it also served to provide pads for both the home button area and the iPhone 5 receiver area. These were installed on top of the included screen shield. With this much coverage, our iPhone 5 was pretty much completely covered in Cushi.
As always, with the 3M like material that is used on the decals, removal and reuse is made very easy. No residue was leftover after each removal during our tests. With everything installed the Cushi Plus Complete Protection Kit added very little with regards to bulk/weight, but it did add a significant amount of protection and flair.
Overall we were seriously happy with id America’s Cushi Complete Protection Kit. While it was essentially a combination of existing products, the combination works and provides the user with good protection for the iPhone 5 while also making it look good.
