Back surface?

[PiggyMiddle]

Hi, planning on getting a 735 in the next few weeks to replace my 520.

I love the 520 except for one thing, the grippy-back rubber/plastic coating.

Does the Lime green 735 have a plain slippery plastic back or are they also of that grippy finish?

Thanks

I think the 735 has a back similar to 900/920 (polished rather than "grippy")... I haven't seen one in person.. May be someone else who owns one can pitch in here...

Yes, it is slippery. I have dropped and almost dropped mine a few times already. So far, no damage!

Thanks, sound great. I have had it with the 520 it takes two hands to get it all the way into a shirt pocket.

The green back has a matt finish, but is still relatively slippy, and the orange one has a shiny finish that is very slippy. As to why they're different - not a clue

It's very similar in feel to the matte 920 models. Definitely not as grippy as the 520 - slides into the pocket easily
