Bought on 27 March.
Initially we were pleased with the shape and amazed at the stench.
The stench is fortunately vanished quickly.
However, it is not genuine leather but relatively well-made leatherette.
Now, after four months of use without falls and bruises I had now today dispose of the shell,
because the mobile phone is no support in:
1. Lack: the lower left corner of the shell is broken off.
2. Lack: the bridge over the volume knob is broken out.
3. Lack: the crack runs at this point further down.
For me, a classic bad buy.
By comparison, in November 2012 I bought a jacket for my HTC Desire C.
The HTC often occurs to me back but its shell, also in Book Style,
has except a few abrasions on the edges no breakdown over time.
Conclusion:
Processing of artificial leather well.
Unfortunately, the dish was MMN on material saving, thin plastic, very susceptible to cracking.
No buy recommendation.
