First thing first: The "package" came a day before the expected delivery date - wonderful! I am very pleased with the delivery time! I was just very skeptical regarding. The X designs. Finally finally, I have yet decided because I was hoping that I thus have more grip. That's actually like that. In the end, are available at all places where you tackle the smartphone easily roughened surface with small, circular knobs. This mobile phone is firmly in your hand. Otherwise, I am very convinced of the material. My HTC slides wonderfully into my pocket and it accumulate any lint on the envelope. Some reported that no recess on the power button is (has as far as I have read that too clear), this I can not confirm at my sleeve. For me, a recess is provided which is also large enough and does not affect the IR transmitter. It is as natural to operate minimally heavier the power button - but will still work and I also take into account. Because the material is somewhat stiffer, it clings to me at the bottom, unfortunately, is not 100% of the mobile phone. But that is only an almost insignificant optical aspect.
