Nice case to make the phone more comfortable to hold?

[Derausgewanderte]

Thanks for the pics. It does look like a solid case. I'm beginning to wonder about the white/transparent case. It seems more like the case is white. Which part is transparent... the stripes?

yeah, it says clear on the ATT page. But a closer look shows that it's not clear (the picture actually shows a black battery housing underneath and the white shell doesn't reveal any of that. The box of my wife's black one reads "flexible impact resistant case with transparent pattern". There is nothing transparent there. The pattern is merely glossy as the pictures show above. Somebody was smoking at Incipio....I just contacted them via email.

I just ordered a OEM white back battery cover and that white incipio case to match. The whole case is transparent with a frosted tint:

Ejay Lozano: Can you post a pic of the white case with it on your phone? Front and back please.

mind writing where you got the OEM white? I would like to buy an orange one...
edit: never mind. found a few on ebay.
wow, UK seller seems to be the only source currently...

The 830 has these nice colored backs. Wouldn't want to put it in a case that covers the colored backs. Can't tell which if any of these cases do not cover the color if the back, does anyone have such a case?

I ordered the Evecase from Amazon because of the good reviews it got for the L920. I will get it on Wednesday and will report back unless somebody else already did it by then. The picture of the clear one looks promising at least.

here are the images I promised. You get what you pay for ($7). It's good enough until I find a really good one for now. It is definitely transparent with a frosty pattern on the back as you can see. The Incipio case is much better quality, but you also pay much more ($20).

I have this

Nokia Lumia 830 Premium Imported Matte Finish Multi Color Hard Back Case Cover | eBay

It has added a nice grip to my 830 and solves the sharp edges problem too. Truth is, I did feel very uncomfortable holding this phone for the first couple of days as i used to have a 4-incher previously. But I'm surprised at how quickly the phone is feeling 'normal' in my hands.

I do have the same case but the thing is the metal frame at top and bottom is naked, and i have gotten 4 lil scratches recently. So i pulled the cover off.

Oh! Were the scratches caused because of the case? I'm handling my phone very carefully so no scratches so far, but you never know I guess!
I do like how this case covers the phone 'just enough' without hiding its beauty

No. My phone was in my hand and i accidentally brushed it with the kitchen shelf. And the bare metal part of the bottom edge got scratched. Good fr u.. u need to handle it with care..

Any idea if the Incipio Ocatance case will support Wireless charging with NOKIA DT -900 charger???

Thanks a lot for the images. I had been waiting for someone to post pics of the clear case.

Can you comment on how it looks with a black battery cover on? I have a black back with silver trim 830, and am hoping the back stays black with this case on. If possible, a picture would be nice, similar to the second picture in your post with a black battery battery cover.

I've used the thick and cumbersome Otterbox Defender on my 920. It never interfered with wireless charging.

With the black back cover with the clear case makes the black back cover look grey:

I'm still waiting on my white back cover, can't wait to see how that combination looks...

That's my setup now, green back with clear/frosted case. Working well. Good grip, good access and function for buttons, the green comes through.

Now I just have to find me one of those orange backs.

Thanks. $21.50 sounds awfully expensive, is that really what they go for?

 

[Ejay Lozano]

Yup +$6 shipping

I'm really diggin' the TPU case. I never was a fan of them on other phones but it works well on the L830.
I got the flip cover. And LOVE it. The color is very polarizing now. But then the frame was exposed... so I compromised.
Chopped up my TPU case to accommodate the flip cover. It's great now!
But if I could redo it... I would have cut the indents for the buttons rather than chopping off part of the entire side.
