> W800i- Skin or Case? Any suggestions?
Bookmark topic
Hello All
First of all, I want to say a big HELLO to you all...
I got my W800i last week, and I've been really careful not to scratch it at all... I've been looking for cases for it, and I've found that there are so many to choose from...
I stumbled onto this forum after googling for cases, and I thought that you guys might be able to give me some advice, so that I can get a better insight from your experiences...
My choices are:-
1. Leather case from Krussel (around £12 from ebay I think)
2.
White Skin from Pivot
3.
Glow in the dark skin
My Questions are:-
1. Has anyone had any experience for the Krussel case? The two pop buttons at the back looks to me that it will scratch the phone... Is that the case? Does it make the phone really bulky? Does the belt clip make it so that it is difficult to put into a pocket without it blulging out?
2. I realise that pivot has been giving out free cases on this forum, but I would like an unbiased opinion... Are they better than the cheaper OAD ones on eBay? Looking at the glow in the dark one, do you think that it would be as good as the pivot one?
Also, has anyone got the official SE pouches? Any comments on them?

Hi! Chaffers,
Not sure whether you're based in the UK (or not) but today I'd got my case from Link @ £9.99 (for the K750i/D750 and fits snuggly over the W800i) which almost looks like those silicone ones but kinda crystal clear rather than creamy/white. It's an all in one case like an extra skin with no buttons, no belt clips etc at the back.
Not a big fan of those Krusell ones, it does have a button clip at the back plus a belt clip, making it bulky in the pocket!

i have a krussel case for my W800 and it's great, i had one before for the orange SPV c500 and i like it so i thought i'd get one for W800.
it's a bit snug out of the box but if you leave your phone in it for a couple of days it'll get used to the shape.

I use a mixture of a Pivot case when I go out at night and a
ICE-20 pouch for use while at work.

i use both the ICE-25 and Pivot case together to gain the maximum protection. It works fine!

Ordered a white pivot case, and a Exim screen protector...
I'm going to look into the SE pouches... Using both can be a good option

Avoid Pivot if you can,poor quality and no customer support.I can highly recommend the Sony ICE 20/25,they really protect you phone well.
