ROCK "Flexible" Ultra Slim S View Cover Flip Leather Case Cover Flipcase in BookStyle for Galaxy S4 i9500 with magnetic closure and windows in black (Electronics)

Customer Review

Actually I wanted to buy a genuine leather bag for the S4, but these are heavier, thicker and not get especially with a S-view Cover. The Rock "Flexible" is the material her naturally not quite as noble, but functionally provides everything you could wish for:

+ S View Cover (working properly)
+ Stand Function
+ Magnetic closure
+ Thin and light
+ Equipment protection by extensive plastic holder
+ Beautiful design
+ All connections / controls accessible

Next tarnishes the joy unfortunately a little:
- S-View window and listener-neck not quite fit (both should be about 2 mm above). So unfortunately missing a small part of the notification bar, unless you look at an angle from below.
- Glass or plastic in the S-View window is not very high. It is very prone to fingerprints, smudges or scratches.
- The magnetic closure keeps the cover closed while reliable, but is in the open state often in the way.
- I would have still wanted a cut-out for the blue notification LED. Thus, in the closed state, unfortunately, can not be identified calls / messages have been received.

Overall, I am satisfied with the bag, because there is (as of 07/2013) seemingly not even better alternatives. Let's see what's coming. The price is in the light of the material (textile and plastic) is not really cheap, but for example, already ok compared to the original Samsung S-view Cover.

Note: Here is seemingly at every Handyhülle "Leather Case" in the product description (including here). However, it is annoying when you then only get one artificial leather or cloth bag. In textile and plastic products, the term "leather bag" me nothing lost!

UPDATE:
But I have sent this bag back now, because I've found a better alternative (Tridea Samsung Galaxy S4 Italian Standing View Cover View S Premium Folio Case for S4). This solves some of the problems described above and also looks much more stylish. There are also more colors to choose from, including a very nice brown. I have so far reduced the rating of rock Flexible from 4 to 3 stars.
