Before I come to the pros and cons of the envelope, I want to write some of my pre-collected impressions. From the visual impression the shell can look very sophisticated, all seams are uniform and do not dissolve. The leather outside matt to slightly more lustrous and has a fine structure, and after 3-4 weeks in the jeans you can still see no signs of abrasion, even at the edges. When held in your hand makes you that the leather is lined with some foam one can almost one millimeter purely pressing, resulting in reverse means that the phone already significantly increases in size. Inside the envelope is a plastic socket is receiving the phone. When the phone is properly inserted the grip is perfect, so good that it is sometimes difficult to get the phone out of its holder. Since felt the plastic version is 2 millimeters thick, I had no doubts that in a fall something might happen. If the shell is not closed you can see, unfortunately, the Notification LED. By that you open up the cover down, you can, if you would like me is accustomed to not support the bottom of the phone with your little finger, which operate with one hand much more difficult I think.
The pros and cons at a glance
+ Phone holds bombproof in the shell
+ Visually appealing and very valuable
+ No smell of artificial leather
+ Haptic pleasant feeling of the fingers on the leather
+ Magnet at the top ensures that the shell is closed if it is on the table.
- With cover the mobile phone is almost twice as thick
- Folds down to keep not possible in one hand with the little finger on the bottom
- Notification LED is covered when closed
- Must be opened for loading
- The side buttons are no longer easy to "feel" as the plastic plate of the phone holder reaches as almost to the keys.
Conclusion:
Who wants a shell when he can be sure that is given in a fall the best possible protection. Or who in a bag carries his cell phone with him and not every 5 minutes times it looks, the, this envelope is recommended. However, if you value specifies that the mobile phone is compact and slim, or who want to be mobile often operate with only one hand should look around for something else.
