Do the ones with the magnetic flap holder do damage in anyway to the LCD screen? The reason I ask is that I have noticed a blck ring appearing around the portion of my screen where that hold is in reference to the phone in the case.

I am carrying my X in a Krusell vertical case... am also using a Crokfol screen protector. The dark circle appears to be under the screen protector, but not actually on the LCD itself. Thoughts?

I would think it is theoretically possible ... hmm from memory LCD screens do use electric current to charge and discharge the actual crystals themselves. possible the magnet is screwing them up after a long period of time. polarization and all from the magnet.

no complaints equals them not knowing or caring as the case may be. The other thing is that the magnet on your case may be stonger then others. or the x doesnt have enough shielding. I know that all mobile phones cases I have ever had have never used magnets as a clipping device.

first rule of electronic devices keep all magnets away from them especially for prolonged exposure.

unfortunately this is the only case that i have found that fits and does NOT have a swivel clip (don't like them). i will try one other this weekend... still a little strange though.

well have you looked the case made for the Sendo X specifically, I have one and it doesnt have a swivel clip the only problem is that it doesnt have a clip just a belt deal.
