Okay so I'm kind of curious how long do the heavy duty case manufacturers usually take to make a case for a Nokia phone or if y'all think they even will?

There have been a few posters that have said they have contacted Otterbox, and that so far the company has not said any plans are in the works for a L1520 case.

Not sure about Trident or Sedio. Will keep an eye open.

I'm awaiting delivery of a "genuine" Nokia CP-623 cover. I say genuine with a certain amount of concern as I've bought it on ebay and the official Nokia website says it's "coming soon." So how did some ebay buyer get hold of these cases before Nokia did????

Anyway, we'll have to see what arrives in the post over the next two days.

I've done some research web research on a number of cases and must say I'm not blown away with what I've seen so far. The problem with a phone as large as the 1520 is that it needs a whole lot of protection, particularly the screen (can you imagine putting a big old scratch on that awesome HD screen......that would be gutting...) and there doesn't seem to be a great deal of choice.

Hopefully, as the phone gathers pace in the market other case manufacturers will get on board.

that's what I'm finding too and there are cases already for the one max and it just came out as well so far the picture is looking bleak :/

Got me curious...

I emailed Seidio and Trident to see what response I would get. I wish I could say it was encouraging:

My email:
To all:

I am purchasing a Nokia Lumia 1520, and I will be shopping for a rugged case for protection at my job site. I am simply wondering if Trident was currently preparing a case for that device?

Any response would be appreciated.

With regards,

Todd

Here is the response from Trident:


Hello,


At the moment we currently do not have any plans of offering a case for the Nokia Lumia 1520 but i will be sure to pass along the suggestion to our design team.


Kind Regards,

And from Seidio:

Hello Todd,

Thank you for your inquiry at Seidioonline. We are more than happy to assist you with your concern. Unfortunately, we currently do not have any plan to release accessory for your device at this time. We'll notify you when our most popular items are available. This doesn’t mean that we will not eventually release any accessories for this phone we just haven’t got plans to at this time.

We’re always in the process of developing and releasing new accessories so I do recommend periodically checking our online store for product updates.

Your business and continued satisfaction is of great importance to us here at Seidioonline Customer Service, so feel free to contact us at (832) 204-1118 with any questions or concerns.

Thank you,
Seidioonline Technical Support Team


So, we can scratch them off. I am going to post this, then post a link to the thread in which Otterbox also begs off on the idea of a L1520 case.

Basically, we have some less great ones on Amazon, and that is about it. Kinda bummed.

:unhappy:

Are you looking for one of these products due to the functionality or brand loyalty? I ask as there are a plethora of cases that replicate functionality available for our device already. I recently purchased one from amazon that ran me less than six bucks and works wonderfully. The hybrid silicone/hard plastic options have worked really well in my last couple of devices.

I just want the protection honestly, I've got a eBay hybrid case on right now but the front protection feels so minimal since it barely goes above the screen
