I received mine this morning too.

It looks great and the quality is good. The only downside is that the standard micro-usb cable does not fit without falling out, even though

video shows that it should.

[Guest grudas]

well for me the usb is fine.. the headphone jack does not fit in properly without pushing the case a bit... :) overall im happy

[Guest Snippo]

The plastic part of my usb cable (the standard one in the box) is too big to fit in the USB hole of the case.

If I put the phone on a flat surface and don't touch the phone or cable it will stay in, but if it moves it will fall out easily.

I think there are smaller micro-USB cables though, so that should fix my problem.

After trying a couple of ill fitting Nokia covers from phone shops I ordered this Nillkin case on Sunday night and it arrived Tuesday Morning. Well pleased for £4.95 including 2 screen protectors and free P&P.

I have the same issue with the USB cable as the above posts but likewise placing the phone and cable on a flat surface overcomes the issue.

EDIT: I was using another power charger... the cable one that came with the phone fits like a dream!!

thanks mate!

[Guest ndubz]

Ordered the plain cheapie £1.57 one from ADVERTISING SPAM on Ebay - arrived today vg for the price, good fit and the holes are plenty big for the charger and camera.

Also ordered the Sikai in green - best case I've seen so far and I like the textured finish. It's more rubbery so very good grip. Again the holes are in the right places and big enough + I really like the buttons for the power and volume.

Did also order the Sofiz one from China - not arrived yet needless to say - but it'll need to be something else to be better than the Sikai one.

hey! i was wonderin coz you got the green one, which looks nice in the pics on ebay but i wanted to know is it a little too bright?! or is the green ok? i was interested in the blue one but i dont want it to look too boyish lol... i want it to b a electric blue colour.. so far im stuck with either the green or the blue case. thanks.

Looking to buy a black solid Sofiz case, anyone got any pics of those?

If not then does anyone have pics of the black Nilkin cases?

Thanks

There are pictures of virtually every case available for the blade in this thread

Just start turning back the pages :)

Anyone know where I can find the cases that were in the £1-£2 range? They're ALL £5 or more now :)

Also would you guys recommend the Normal style cases (here) Or the solid glossy black ones (here)

Do they block any buttons etc?

Thanks!

In short, Blade does not have that mass demand like HTC or Samsung does, and demand determines prices...

You can try www.sofiz.co.uk for slightly cheaper prices. 9 euro for any four cases incl. postage, so just under 2 quid per case in average.

P.S. You can request glossy black and milky white when checking out.

QUICK UPDATE: OK I just found that that there was a currency bug... paying by EURO is actually much cheaper than by British Pounds. It seems like they have swapped the currency wrongly. So just grab the deal before they correct it back. :)

I managed to make my usb cable fit just fine.

I took a knife and cut off a bit of plastic on the micro-USB end of the cable. Works great :)

(I actually found that advice somewhere on the internet :))

Haha the Irony of seeing you read how to cut off the plastic with a name like Snippo xD

which case was this?

[Guest Snippo]

The new Sofiz jelly case.

The new Sofiz jelly case.

Odd I've got the new sofiz jelly case and everything fits fine. No need for any cutting at all?

Due to the nature of the manufacturing process it is inevitable that there will be a few millimetres of variation in size and position of the case holes so some owners will find no problems with the cable falling out and others will.

I've bought 2 sets with your link

1x grey smoked and 1x glossy black for 6,11€.

I've completed the Paypal order but the redirection after order shows me an error in the page https://www.jsebeauty.com/store/index.php?m..._number=V880RJC

Wait & see...

Not sure if it's been mentioned in here but the Exspect Silicon case for the San Francisco is actually probably the best case/cover I've tried so far (had a few off ebay and amazon market)..

It's the one the guy posted about from play.. costs 9.99 GBP so its a bit more expensive. But it really is worth it. All the cut-outs are perfect.. its thick enough to protect it a bit.. and it feels decent in the hand as well.. (i've ordered another for my other phone as well)

One thing to watch for it that they say it comes with a screen protector and a cleaning cloth.. mine didnt and I see nowhere it would have been in the box either.. pretty sure none of them will, plays description appears to be wrong.

I ordered 4 today and had the same problem.

However, I checked my paypal account and saw that the payment was made so I reckon it should be fine.

Was going to go with the Sofiz but changed my mind at the last minute after seeing a picture of the Exspect. It looks really smart.

Likewise, we got one of the green Sofiz jelly cases and it's a perfect fit.
