Design
+ It's one of the few folding cases that are rounded at all (4!) Corners; many are just above.
+ The black leather looks great.
+ The contrast stitching make her something (the color would have a little bit firmer desired to orange, but is more reddish)
+ The embossed look very good, but would not have to be.
Function
+ The fit is very good. The S3 Mini is sufficiently recorded. It must not wear out over extended use, however.
+ The USB connector on the bottom remains free in Case closed. Thus, charging and data exchange is possible.
+ Also, the headphone jack and the keys remain free. Thus, it is fully operational in the envelope.
+ The inside is coated with leather and protects therefore quite well the display.
- Unfortunately, the sides are very open and offer less protection.
- At falling the corners offer though adequate protection resistance, however, the lid can be opened from the initial impact quickly.
The packaging of cardboard is also great and very suitable for gifts.
Meanwhile, I have the envelope 2 weeks use and am satisfied. As I put more emphasis on the appearance and the technical function in this case, I forgive despite the protection deficiencies 5 Stars.
