sorry lads, but how do you upload photos? First time in doing it. Just had a look and can't figure it out. Thanks

here you go (finally) :unsure:

the first one shows the work that I did to make the power button more accessible.

Only one criticism on the Nillkin hard case: the sides are smooth, and its only the back that has texture. So, it still can a be bit slippery, better than without the case by far. But, had I known this before, I think I'd go for the ROCK cover that's on the sofiz site. I think the texture finish covers the whole case on that one and @ 50% off how could you go wrong?

Hope this helps

Edit: if you enlarge the third photo, you can see where the texture ends

so umm.. what's a good cheap jelly case that doesn't cover any buttons etc?

also the CASESSSssssss deal even with 50% off isn't that great as postage is so high.

Just a quick update, not too pleased at how difficult it is to use the volume buttons. This really shows up when you're using them for navigating CWM. I had to stick my fingernail in to make it go, and then I kept skipping past stuff that I wanted to select. Tried to open it more on the bottom side, with a knife, like I did with the power button. Got a pretty big hole now, but it didn't help that much. I may try to sand a taper around the hole to make the opening concave. In my mind that's how it should have been made in the factory. The thickness of the case is just too much for the height of those buttons.

This could be the same for all hard cases, so Smiff I'm curious as to why you ask about a gel case with openings? Is because the soft/gel/tpu covers hinder the buttons as well, but in a different way?

Good point about the shipping too; that's probably not half price!? It might the best pricing out there though?

Later

it's a problem of many soft cases too that they are quite hard plastic and make pressing buttons they cover (usally volume/power) difficult - have had this with other phones and various soft cases. anyway, ordered the frosted soft case from UK supplier as singapore site will take up to 3 weeks, too slow!

edit: can confirm the one from liliamfashions is ok, buttons work ok through case, not sure if enough protection of glass screen edges we'll see. good service, bit expensive for what it is but that's fair enough from a real UK seller!

50% discount offer for all Ascend G300 cases when you enter g300modaco on checkout. :D

Tried to order, but the discount isn't valid anymore? How long was it valid :-)?

Hello,

I got this Soft Jelly Meifeng Cover Case + screen protector from eBay for £5.49. The seller is from China but the item was posted from Singapore and it only took 8 days to arrive :) . I have purchased other stuff from Hong Kong and it usually takes about 2 weeks, so I was really happy with the speedy delivery. I can't guarantee your delivery will be as fast as mine but here's the link: http://www.ebay.co.u...#ht_8117wt_1066 .. Make sure you order the right colour.

Also it feels like part of the phone and it looks awesome too.

My Nillkin hard case arrived today - pretty decent, but as has been said before it does make pressing the power button from behind a little trickier.

These are excellent cases. I got the black one for my phone a few weeks ago. Then, when I bought another G300 for my wife, I wanted a pink one for her. Unfortunately you don't do them in pink so I had to purchase elsewhere.

The eBay seller I used for the pink one was here http://www.ebay.co.u...9417990&afsrc=1 which is exactly the same case.

I have to say that both sellers were absolutely excellent. Excellent service, great communication and very quick delivery.

The 1st gen cases for this phone are lots better than the early cases for the Blade, which usually had holes in wrong places, buttons that can't be pressed, charger pops out because hole to small for most cables etc etc.. looks like the case designers are getting their act together :)

Putting textured sides is such a massively good idea i can't believe it wasn't done years ago (all the cases i got for Blades have smooth sides).

These cases do not have the power or the volume buttons mapped onto the case, but the buttons are still accessible and easily pressed with the case on.
