I have received the envelope today and am very disappointed. I bought this case for my wife, a colleague also has the Galaxy S3 Mini with such a shell, original from Samsung, so I know how it should actually look like. When I was looking at the store after that I was slain by the prices, about 30 and thought, look at Amazon. Behold, nearly 10 euros for a "original" envelope, so you will but pulled at the store just over the table. Well, as I said, the disappointment came with the package. First, the packaging looked different than the ones you find in the store. But that can happen, yes. So unpacked and amazed. The flap, which lays down on the display is nice white, but has very awkward shapes and looks very cheap. It looks like as color that has died smell about it and has formed at the edges runners. The "lining" of the flap does not look like on the product image and not as the original of colleagues. While it is relatively soft, but has not, among other things the deepening of the phone's hardware key. Only the fit of the cover can be described as good. As written here before sitting this really fixed on the phone than the original. But the color is different from the original. There is another white, but this would not be so noticeable. Then there are the logos / indicia that I want to complain about. If one the original cover next to the "Samsung" print looks much thicker, almost aufgeschwämmt. On the lid of the pressure is partially completed. Pictures I uploaded, see for yourself!
All in all, makes me doubt that this really is an original cover, and then maybe it's 2nd choice.
The shell comes back, I'll still buy the right stock.
