HTC Touch Pro2 Krusell Orbit Flex Premium Leather Case

7th September 2009

Until now, I've never had a Krusell case that I didn't like; and there are two simple reasons I don't like this one -- which may just be personal to me, however: (1) it takes a lot of effort to get the Touch Pro2 into the case... -- following some very complicated instructions... -- an exercise which seriously risks damaging the phone, if you're not very careful; and (2) the plastic cover renders the slide-out keyboard... -- well, not useless: just not as nice to use.... You have to give Krusell's designers kudos, though, for managing to design a case that still allows the keyboard to slide out, and -- in my experience -- still allows access to all the microphones and controls. I also like the fact that you can remove the front part of the case.... These two facts go together to add a third star; and mean I'll keep the case; and maybe use it towards the end of my Touch Pro2's life. In the meantime -- until my nice, custom, handmade case arrives...(!) -- I shall carry on using the stock one that came with the phone (...which is pretty good; although a little basic).
