I was very unhappy to have problems with the iSkin Neo, because aside from the one major design flaw it is a very, VERY cool case. With all of that storage space in such a compact, classy and high quality unit, I would love to recommend it. If there were a redesign that addressed the accessibility to controls issue I would not hesitate to call the Neo a great buy. Unfortunately with such a glaring flaw, I simply can’t put a whole lot of enthusiasm behind it, especially at a $49.99 price point.

Highs
Nice quality lambskin leather with sturdy fasteners; Stylish design and colors; “Kickstand” allows PSP to be propped up for viewing; Allows access to all buttons and ports, as well as UMD slot; Storage pockets for 2 memory sticks and 1 UMD; Jump PSP multi
Lows
Design makes button and joystick operation difficult and uncomfortable; High price for a case; Not a perfect fit around PSP.
Final verdict
While the iSkin Neo is undeniably stylish and conceptually cool, the poorly engineered form factor causes it to lose a lot of its functionality.
