Hi,
Like to hear your opinions which is the best casing for the P800 in terms of the look, the protection and the convenience. I kind of like the Piel Frama compared to the rest so far. It does cost much more than the rest though, and I'm not sure if it's worth that amount of money.
Thanks.

The Piel Frama is a very bulky case, IMO, but it gives the most protection.

I'm using the Piel Frama,..without no doubt the best case I have,..very good built-quality. Protection-wise I believe its the best one, as the upper leather is very strong and firm,..the inner part is soft.
I dont really consider it big or bulky, regarding the fact that you have room for additional MS Duo and stylus and e.g. businesscard.

Price-wise,..I dont consider it expensive in any way,..the quality is High-End

regards

I bought the Piel Farma case and when I got it I loved it but within 2 days I hated it it kept slipping of it's holder whilst attached to my belt the angle is also wrong it's complicated to use this clip that, it's a really well made product but the best is the Sony IBK20 Business Case it's the dog's bo**oc*s.... and great value with the other bits that come with it

I have the Piel Frama, and would highly recommend it to anyone. If you live in europe, you can buy direct from their website... (forget the address sorry, it comes up easy if you google for it).

I did this and the case turned up inside 3 days. Very very pleased with it indeed, it gives heaps of protection to the screen - and I use my P800 with the flip off.

A few questions on the piel frama, please

My P800 is always flip off, is there any chance that the edge of a spare duo stickor the spare digitizer thingy may damage the screen?

And how do you answer calls with the flip off, do you leave in the case? does the flap get in the way when you are on the phone?

Also, is there any noticable lose of reception (phone) when P800 is in case......I found I got this a few years ago when I tried a case on an old phone

thanks

N

@nigelot1

to answer calls, i just open the flap and bend it all the way back, no problem. or could also leave it hanging but looks and feels kinda funny. i've also used it on speakerphone with the flap closed and it worked fine.

haven't noticed any effect on reception at all.

as for mem sticks damaging the screen, i guess it's possible although the clearance between the flap and the screen appears to be adequate. i have my flip removed also.

I've got the Piel Frama and overall I like it. It protects the P800 very well - I've dropped my phone a few times already and the case has done its job.

The holder/belt clip, though, as somebody else mentioned is the weak part of this package. My phone/case kept slipping out of the holder and within a fortnight the clip broke! The solution I found was to use a belt clip from an old Motorola Accompli 008 and it has been faultless. The case never breaks away from my belt and it's easy to attach/detach.

In summary, get the case but find an alternative belt clip!
