I uploaded some pics in another thread. My thoughts are:
1. Yes, it's difficult to get on and off, but I don't take my case off every day so it's not an issue.
2. Yes, it's bulky but I didn't buy this phone to be compact
3. Protection is great. Camera, screen, everything
4. I love the latch that keeps the cover closed
5. The way it props itself up in landscape is very sturdy
Overall, I'd say it's worth the $45. After seeing videos of the Nokia case, I was very disappointed. The screen cover looks floppy, and the way it stands up looks unstable. For me, the Belkin case really fits with what I'll be using the phone for. I'd love to see Nokia rework their case before release. Maybe even incorporate wireless charging. But until then, this is the case for me.
