After I had already ordered me a flip case for my Samsung Galaxy Ace and thus am very satisfied, had to be the same case for the Galaxy Gio from my wife. It is a very robust and stable part. The holder for the smartphone is a solid plastic housing and is lined with black velvet. Below are r + l ever catch a nose. Upstairs there is the retaining tab that holds the phone securely after pushing. To remove this tab must be bent slightly backwards. The cutouts at the back for camera and speaker are precisely in the right place. The flap itself has a felt coating inside. The locking tab is provided with a self-closing magnet which (with one finger) hugs the Zuhaltelasche when snapping. The outer shell has a Nadelstreifenkarakter and is provided on both sides with a imitated stitching. Looks so very classy. I can really recommend this Flip Cover on.
