Phones review - Samsung Galaxy S4 cases with diverse price range
"The Cygnett Feel is an ideal case for the Samsung Galaxy S4 if you like simple hard-cases without much bulk. The Feel comes in 5 different colors and retails at $20. The Cygnett Form is very similar to the Feel, which is also offered in 5 colors at $20 with a minimalist look and soft rubber finish. Finally, the last Cygnett case is the FlipFiber that doubles as a wallet and flip case. In our opinion, this $35 option is the best Cygnett Galaxy S4 case" |

coolsmartphone - Cygnett SoundWave Bluetooth speaker with dock Review
"The Cygnett SoundWave Bluetooth speaker is a great little speaker. Ideally suited to a kitchen, bedroom or workshop environment, but the addition of batteries means it can go outside with you should you want some tunes in the garden. In fact, the volume hits decent enough levels for it to liven up a summer barbecue or kids party." |

Galaxy S4 Accessories - Cygnett WorkMate Galaxy S4 Rugged Case
"If you’ve been looking for something very protective and built like a brick sh-…. well, you know the rest. The Cygnett WorkMate is an extremely rugged Galaxy S4 case that consists of a polycarbonate shell, a TPU skin, and a silicone panel on the back for grip and extra shock dampening. There’s a lot of engineering that went into this product from the industrial designers at Cygnett, including a lot of elements that we love to see in any case that purports to be extra protective." |

PhoneArena - Cygnett Feel Samsung Galaxy S4 case hands-on
"Out of everything, it’s the soft touch feel of the case that really stands out most. Not only does it provide for a decent and soft grip in the hand, but it’s nice that the Cygnett Feel Samsung Galaxy S4 case has a very clean finish to its visage. Sure, it’s not trying to win any style points with its straightforward approach, but it’s comforting that there isn’t much bulk to it – so it essentially maintains the lovely slim profile of the handset. On one hand, the case will protect the smartphone against scratches when it’s stuffed into your pants pockets or backpack" |

Product Reviews - Cygnett SoundWave Bluetooth gets hands on review
"For a Bluetooth speaker that retails for under $100 you can’t go far wrong with the SoundWave. For your money you are getting a great sounding, well made and robust speaker that can be used effortlessly at home or just as easily at the beach or park. With simple Bluetooth connection to many devices including Notebooks, Ultrabooks, Samsung and Apple products why not let all the party guests throw their own favorite tunes into the mix?" |

Android Spin - Cygnett Cases for Samsung Galaxy S4 – UrbanShield, Cache and WorkMate Evolution
"Let’s start with the UrbanShield. This case was designed for the “Slick Professional” and there’s little to suggest otherwise; just looking at the case, this Brushed Aluminium version looks fit for a hot-shot executive The Cache is a more reserved case than the UrbanShield with its conservative notebook appearance which is made up of frosted-canvas The WorkMate is a much more rugged offering from Cygnett and has several features that will probably appeal more to… well, active people" |

AUSDROID - Cygnett WorkMate Evolution case for Galaxy S 4, Mini Review
"Being somewhat brave, I’ve tested the durability of the WorkMate Evolution (and it’s protective impact on the Galaxy S 4) on a number of common surfaces around the place, including carpet floors, tile floors, brickwork, roads, concrete and even a simulated throw in anger against a wall. None of these have actually managed to damage the phone while so encased. I have no doubt that had I tried these feats of stupidity without such a chunky case, my phone would have been destroyed by now. If you’re working in environments where destruction might occur, then you owe it to yourself, and your wallet, to invest in this kind of protection for your Galaxy S 4" |

Gizmorati - Amazing Cygnett SoundWave Bluetooth Speaker Review
"The Cygnett SoundWave is probably the best speaker for outdoor parties and barbecues. It has two built-in speakers for the high-quality dynamic sound and the device also comes with a smartphone stand. The smartphone stand is adjustable and it was perfect for my iPhone 5. You can charge and sync the device while it is on the stand, since the cable fits perfect with the Cygnett stand." |

CNET - Cygnett FiberFlip for S4
"Cygnett makes a few different folio-style cases, including the FiberFlip, Cache, and Lavish Executive (it's not that lavish, but it's nice enough). The FiberFlip has the most eye-catching design, but the Cache and Lavish Executive convert into stands, which is a good feature to have, particularly if you use your GS4 to watch video." |

Core77 design magazine and resource - Cygnett's WorkMate Phone Case
"For Cygnett's WorkMate line of protective cases, ID'ers Shannon Brown and Haydn Smith have whipped up a tasty stew of thermoplastic polyurethane, silicone and deliciously rubberized polycarbonate. The combination was chosen to pack a lot of shock absorbency into a slim package while still providing a measure of ergonomics; the rubbery texture means it's less likely to fly out of your hand, but if it does, the protective design does the rest." |

AusDroid - 'Cygnett tests out its cases by dropping a Galaxy S4 from height'
"As you can see in the video above, Cygnett have put their cases to the test by dropping them (eventually) from a scissor-lift that’s 3 metres up. I wouldn’t be trying this, but they did. The video is an interesting watch, but if you’re keen just to sit on the edge of your seat, you can skip ahead to the drop at the 1:50 mark. Unsurprisingly, the Galaxy S4 survives the drops, and while this could be the result of very controlled drops, it equally could be (and probably is) a testament to the quality of the cases Cygnett make." |
