for Apple Watch 9/8/7/6/5/4/SE 45/44mm Case with Band (Unicorn Beetle Pro), [Anti-Scratch] [Bumper Protector] Rugged Men Cover with Adjustable Strap Band for iWatch SE 3/2/1, Black

First impression was a 3/5 stars. After wearing for a week my mind had been made up and the band was a 5/5 stars and has continued to stay at that level. I have now had the band for 15-16 days and I couldn’t be happier, especially at the price point. I paid $20, but I can now say I would of paid between $35-$40 and still felt that I had gotten a great deal. My biggest concern prior to receiving this in the mail was of the material. I used to wear and collect G-shock watches and anyone who has done that has most likely at one point inadvertently purchased a fake/fraudulent “authentic” G-shock watch. One of the easiest ways to spot the majority of fake G-shocks is by the material of the band. No matter how long you wear it the band retains a straight shape and will not hold the curl of the wrist. This SUPCASE band does obtain a worn curl from your wrist (take a look to the last picture I added”. I really like the feel (both to the touch and on my wrist) of the Apple Watch band that comes with the watch. Please note that the SUPCASE band does not feel the same way. When I first opened this band and saw that it feels different than the original I was worried. I almost thought to send it back without even trying it and I am so so so glad I didn’t. Other concerns initially: -The power button would not work well or at all, this couldn’t be further from the, it works impeccably. -I have a 44mm watch so I was worried that with this band it would be too big. I am 230 pounds and 6’ tall. I love a bulky watch and this band is large, but my arms and hands are slightly above average in size and this was not a problem at all. -I was worried that the loop would regularly slide off. This has happened once, maybe twice. I do check it several times a day out of habit from my G-shocks, but it hasn’t proven to be an issue for me. The once or twice it did slide down was not a problem. The watch manufacturer put time and consideration into this product when it was developed so even if it slides down the watch remains fastened. -A big concern I saw in several reviews was that this watch did not remain in contact of the users skin and therefore anything related to heart rate was not reliable or even effective at all. I have not had that experience. I use my heart rate for several things and it has worked superbly for me. -Perhaps my biggest concern (based on other user reviews) prior to receiving my SUPCASE Apple Watch Series 4 44mm band was that it made the pedometer completely useless. Several people said that the fit of the case into the band wasn’t perfect therefore the pedometer became less than useless. This has not been the case for me. Pedometer still works extremely well. This wouldn’t be a helpful review to anyone if I didn’t list my personal “negatives” for this band. Please know these are my issues or things I find to be less than ideal about this SUPCASE Apple Watch Series 4 44mm band. -This band and case is one piece. If you want the case you have to use the band and vice versa. -The outside edge of the case is raised substantially so it definitely helps with protection from bumps and drops, however the screen has no protection and SUPCASE does not include its own screen protector so I found it of extreme importance to purchase screen protectors. I preferred the ArmorSuit (6 Pack) MilitaryShield Screen Protector (I will do a review for that soon). -The material feels slightly underweight, but at this point I’m really going out of the way to find “complaints.” It works beautifully well. Final Thoughts: Spending $350 on a watch then $20 on a case and band just seemed weird. This is my first Apple Watch I kinda thought that in order to get something of quality I was going to have to spend $50, $60, $70. I was wrong. This band is amazing and realistically could not be better for the price. My wife gave me the watch as a Christmas gift and she bought it on Black Friday. Since I have the best wife on the planet and she knew how long I had been wanting one she gave it to me the day she bought it. So I had about a month with the original band. I loved the material, but I just felt extremely vulnerable to impending damage. I made the decision I had to get a case ASAP. I HAD NO IDEA what to order. Please heed my following advice...unless a waterproof case is 100% necessary I’d stay away from it. I looked at dozens of waterproof cases and the negatives far outweighed the benefit of being able to take my watch in the shower. Finally, if you’re on the fence about this product just order it and give it a try. The worst thing that happens is you don’t like it and you send it back at zero additional cost. The best thing that happens is you love it or learn to love it once it’s broken in and you’ve found an amazing case and strap for $20. Sounds like a win-win to me. This is the first review I’ve ever written, but this product definitely deserves a positive review. Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope it has helped you to come closer to making a decision on how you can better protect your Apple Watch. Joshua

This Unicorn Beetle PRO case is a fantastic investment for anyone who wants serious protection for their Apple Watch. I'm an active person, and I'm always worried about dropping or scratching my watch. This case provides incredible peace of mind. Pros: * Robust Protection: The case is built like a tank. It's incredibly sturdy and offers excellent protection against drops, bumps, and scratches. The raised edges also protect the screen. * Comfortable Fit: Despite its ruggedness, the case is surprisingly comfortable to wear. It doesn't add too much bulk and doesn't interfere with the watch's functionality. * Easy Access: All buttons and ports are easily accessible, and the case doesn't hinder the use of the digital crown or side button. * Stylish Design: While primarily focused on protection, the case doesn't look overly bulky or unsightly. The black color is sleek and professional. Overall: I highly recommend the Unicorn Beetle PRO case to anyone looking for a reliable and protective solution for their Apple Watch. It's a bit pricier than some other options, but the level of protection it provides is well worth the investment.

This product came in time and the design is perfect!! I love how it feels on the wrist and the way it fit was exceptional! The Installation of the watch fit right in and its durability is too notch! I would recommend this product to any apple lover!

Good looking watch band. All buttons are accessible with good protection for the watch. A little bulky to what I’m used to, but that shouldn’t be a problem over time. I wish the straps were just a little softer and more flexible. I would recommend this product.

For about 2 years I wore a Gshock brand watch. The same one every day. Recently we decided to grab two new series 4 Apple watches for me and my wife. I wore a gschock because I work commercial construction sites, as well as spending a lot of time on my local river fly fishing. When I first put in my Apple Watch I knew it was too fragile to just have on my wrist while at work or in the outdoors. Which led me to start researching for some cases. When I found this case I couldn’t believe the price. I was very skeptical about the quality of this case. But it was my favorite look so I jumped and purchased it. To my surprise this thing is well thought out, and well designed. When holding it, it feels light but very sturdy. I popped my watch into the band and haven’t looked back. The comfort is amazing, I have been wearing it for about 2 and a half weeks. I have banged it agains brick walls hit it against metal studs and door frames and I never have to check and see if it’s ok. I have nothing bad to say about this case whatsoever. If your thinking of buying it, it was well beyond worth it. This is not a paid review I bought this myself and I’m just really excited about it!

I originally purchased this for my series 5 44mm. I have worn this every day for 6 months and it does the job well. There are some small styling aspects that are not my favorite- a bit rectangular and angular, but the pictures are accurate tho so you get what you see. What works for me is the protective bumper including the bezel over the front and sides, which is what I bought it for. I bang into walls, doors , doorknobs etc and this case gives me comfort. There are no obnoxious brands or PROTECTION references in large letters in the face- there is some lettering / logo on the buckle and a barely visible supcase on the strap. When my series 7 45mm arrived last week I was able to swap it in and it still works great. No problems with the crown, button, charging, or sensors. I do see some reviews with crown or charging interference but mine seems fine. The thickness and bumper dimensions are similar to my gshock watches, but the apple watch is longer and more rectangular so this does make the package a bit larger. The bumper is about 3mm above/over the glass. Sometimes the excess strap end slides loose from the keeper, but Ive had that with other straps and the actual buckle clasp itself, with the 2 prongs, does not come loose. No way for the watch to come loose or fall out unless the strap / case physically breaks. Update: lasted 10 months of daily use, successfully protected the watch from multiple bumps and mishaps. Today I noticed the plastic has cracked near the crown. Possible the larger 45mm size contributed to that. That part is quite thin and I noticed other reviewers having the same issue. Not ideal but this is all about protecting the watch so I would be willing to order a second band. I ended up buying a different band to change the style. On that one the strap is also just a little longer to stay tucked in better.

The band works very well at protecting your watch. The down side is that the band will break and split in a year. I have replaced it 3 times and every time I notice the band starting to split at the year mark. So as long as you don’t mind replacing it every year, it’s a good band. Has kept my watch face from a lot of scratches.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: I don’t normally write reviews unless I’m mad about a product but honestly, I’ve bought this same band 3 times over the last 6 years and get about 2 years out of each one. It does eventually break but I wear it literally every day. I used to do manual labor and it held up. I hike and camp a lot and it holds up. The only time I’ve see this thing break is from the constant folding and stress I’ve put on it. I get that maybe there are a few bad ones in the bunch but I’ve yet to see it. Solid product.
