Nokia have their own leather cases out now as well, but I brought one of those for the 7650 and never used it as I thought the inside was to rough and would mark the case/screen.

I'm hoping it may come tomorrow, it was free delivery in 2-6 days.

Hey All,

This is a truly great case. A really snug fit around the 6600 and once it's lined up right and the zip closed it's perfect.
If your still after a good case for your beloved 6600, at a little over �10 GBP's this is the one I'd suggest.

Thanks for posting the pics Coolice! I have now cancelled my order for the Body Glove case and am getting that one.

Cheers fella!

😊

coolice 22 Jan 2004, 20:40

Hi Kennyboy,

Your welcome mate.

The thing that put me off about the body glove one was that it doesn't cover all the phone, which is a shame.
This one covers everything and I must say works well.

I was worried about the tightness (ooh err) of the case on the buttons, but it's fine nothing gets pressed unless you press it.

You'll love it when you see it.

10 pounds for a casing? Ouch.

akawsh 22 Jan 2004, 22:04

Howdy, I like the look of this BG case and some of the others on the UK site, unfortunately they don't ship internationally (NZ). Anyone know a good US/Aust. online case retailer that does? Cheers, W.

kennnyboy 22 Jan 2004, 22:10

try www.mobilefun.co.uk

I think that they ship internationally but they dont have this particular case in yet....but they do sell the brand. Just a matter of time till they get them in - so they say!

@Coolice

Nice one for the link and photos of the Krussel case.
I have juts received mine due to your recommendation. Very pleased with it.
I feel a lot happier now that it's protected.
Cheers

Tight Git 😃 😃

It's a lot cheaper than 340 GBP when you drop the 6600 on the floor and it smashes into 1,000 pieces and you have to buy a replacement. 😃 😃

i have the krussell case (13 Euro) and i cut of the silly click thing of the back and i tore off the velcro so now its flat and it looks 100 times better,i recomend it because it fits nicely and snug on the 6600!!!!!

lovesign 23 Jan 2004, 21:54

Well, having seen this case and heard your opinions, I think I might get one of these myself.
I originally bought a case from Carphone Warehouse and then another from Vodafone.
Both are adequate, but this new one looks the biz.

So if any1 wants a cheap 6600 case, I'll sell them for �5 GBP each, buyer pays P+P.

Let me know.

Rob.

P.S This is my 100th Post !!!! 😃 😃 😃

The one from Mobilefun is Cheap and tacky

You cant see the screen properly and it fells baggy and horrible

Waste of �10 the �2 job I got of ebay was a lot better.

nightgyr 27 Jan 2004, 06:01

good lord, you guys pay 6 pounds for this??

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=3380763966&category=57245 (this guy is a rip!)

My advice is to look for other asian sellers, in hope they sell cheaper. The quality will be the same, because they all come from China, and the production costs only a few cents (about 30c). The shops here in Singapore sell the exact same thing for about SG$5, which is approx 1.5pounds, which is already too much. oh well.

just my 2 cents.😊

dtakias 27 Jan 2004, 06:16

I cant understand why this thread is still going.
http://www.krusell.se/ is the answer for 6600 cases.
Their Multidapt� system is so usefull. The case is cheap and the quality is excellent.
Theres no point buying a new phone like 6600 and trying to save a couple of f***g �� on a case for it. If you want a good case, you are going to pay for it. And 10pounds is not expensive for a good case.
Some links for krusell with multidapt in UK here:

Hey All,

Well said everyone about the Krussell case.
I'm in total agreement, I should be I suppose as I have one, but for �11GBP's it's really good and leather to.

�6 for a bit of clear plastic does seem a little steep, especially compared to the Krussell. Plus as has already been said the different mounting solutions make it very versatile. I'm thinking of getting one for my car.

Also for me as I use the phone for business as well as pleasure (great pictures 😃 ) the leather is best.

The only thing I'd say I'd change is the velcro under the rear clip. It's a good idea, as I think it's there to keep dirt from getting in the back of the case, but sometimes I'm worried I'm gonna lobe the phone across the room when the velcro releases. I haven't though 😊
It may have been better with some sponge material or something as the buttons keep the piece closed tightly.

Apart from that, to quote a phrase "I'm lovin it!"

I dontl like the velcro and button clip on the back of it I use the camera a lot and puttling down the back is just going to look kinda ghey :/

Like the camera to be ready when I push the button :lol:

And yup I paid�6 because i thought it was one of the proper ones you get from the orange shop not some nasty peice of kak defo wont buy form mobilefun again always thought they werepretty good in the past.

elton 30 Jan 2004, 19:12

You say you ripped off the clip at the back!
I dont like this either as i have no need for it and it is a bit bulky,isnt it a bit messy now tho?
And what about the poppers??????

elton 03 Feb 2004, 21:46

Oh Poo,
John got banned b4 answering my question.

Unplugged 22 Feb 2004, 00:31

Coudent remove the poppers but did remove the velcro and clip because they were kak and just annoyed me

looks kinda like this :/ if anything poppers stop the camera screen from resting on the suface and getitng dirty and scratched.
