Portenzo Levant iPad 2 Moleskine Case - Unboxing and Quick Review

[kellyflwr]

Hey, thanks for the review. I'm thinking about getting one of these for my first gen iPad. All I've had up to this point is a zagg shield. Really glad to see how nice the Portenzos are. Thanks a lot!

[BlueRidgeRuckus]

@kellyflwr - you are welcome.. the portenzo and pad & quill are really good cases..

[gongxia649]

not hard enough....if u drop it its going to break

gumdrop case is the best i think so far

[Raioh87]

I was like 'FU*K!' when you cut open the packaging lol

[BlueRidgeRuckus]

@Raioh87 - lol yah me too.. knife sharper then i thought :) it was ok though nothing damaged..

How well does this case stand up vertically (and horizontally) on a slick surface such as a kitchen counter? Also, do you have difficulty typing on it due to the fact that you can't make it sit at an angle? Thanks!

Thanks for the review! The video editting looks good. Looks like I'll have to get iMovie to make my own review on my customized comp II when it arrives.

[BlueRidgeRuckus]

@tehKettyBear - Thanks for watching... come back and post a video reply with your review of your comp II.. i really like how that looks..

this or the octavo?

[BlueRidgeRuckus]

@krmlgrl08 - well.. right now im really diggin my portenzo levant.. im biased though because i really like the light blue interior.. I am from North Carolina so blue is in my blood.. both are really good cases.. only thing i wish portenzo had was a ribbon like the octavo.. but right now i cant really decide which i like best.. if you got either one you would be happy.. :)

[krmlgrl08]

@BlueRidgeRuckus ok thanks I was leaning more towards the octavo.

[BlueRidgeRuckus]

@krmlgrl08 - Octavo is nice.. did you see my video of my Octavo? only difference really is the octavo is a lil bit thicker along the sides of the ipad.. other then that they are very close in detail and design..

[FrankBenitez83]

Sweet!

[Flaksting]

From 1:17 on - it really looks like there are quite a few flaws in the woodenframe. Ridges and holes. Especially on the left side of the hole for the chargercable.

But also on the other side.

What is that?

[BlueRidgeRuckus]

@Flaksting - there is a couple of spots that look dark.. and i thought the same as you that maybe the plywood material had fallen out or there were holes there.. but i felt it with my finger and smooth.. not a hole.. its just color difference in the same layer.. its like a optical illusion..

[GhostStan]

I like it sell me the white one

[BlueRidgeRuckus]

Also.. just for reference.. this video i recorded with my digital camera.. transferred to my pc.. converted it using the software i showcase in another video so you can convert videos to .mp4 in a format that the iPad 2 with iMovie can then edit.. and once i got all the editing done.. i used iMovie to record the narration.. i think it came out pretty cool.. it came be done just takes time.. i wish apple would make iMovie import more codecs..

Nice video!

[BlueRidgeRuckus]

@xultar - Thank you for watching.. keep checking back.. 23.5 portenzo review coming soon.. :)

[h2rulz]

Please do the 23&1/2 review soon~

Also, please compare the thickness of the new cases to the iPad2 and to the original portenzo case.

[BlueRidgeRuckus]

@h2rulz - 23.5 review has been recoded.. i am editing now on my iPad to go up on youtube later tonight.. if youtube and my ISP will cooperate.. keep watching.. :) I dont have an original portenzo case to compare sorry..

[johnnyphu]

Between the octavo and portenzo, which do you like more?

[BlueRidgeRuckus]

@johnnyphu - Honestly right now its a toss up...i haven't had the Portenzot long enough to give a honest comparison.. but i do like how their corners are held in and i like that its a little bit thinner.. I will be doing a comparison video between the octavo and portenzo levant.. and then the treegloo in white vs the portenzo 23.5 but again i have to have more time hands on before i can give an honest opinion of each.. thanks for watching
