The Bellagio Flipper case is cool but...

[tubbycub]

I have problems taking pictures and using the NX in tablet mode is a big headache as the front cover keeps obstructing the way. I am not going to take my NX out whenever I want to take pictures, it's too tight! No doubt its really eye catching and fits the NX almost nicely but it has its flaws on design.

Does anyone have problems using this case?

Care to share your views on how you use it?

I was dissapointed when I first got my bellagio case. Keep using it. Once it breaks in a little and you get used to it you will find it is a great case.

I too have the Bellagio case. Just flip the cover back on itself and reverse the tongue and snap it on the snap. Walla, you have a nifty handle to slip your hand through AND the cover is out of your way!

However as noted my ddsmith, it is a little stiff and will take a little "breaking in" first.

Good advice nike33!

And I was just fighting with the case *smacks forehead*

I love this case......

This technique sounds cool but isn't that abuse? My Bellagio is brand new and it will leave stretch marks! and moreover, <stupid question> will this break the case into 2 pieces?

[crzygrl]

Looks like broken in leather to me........nothing more than that....

Does the Bellagio case have a magnetic or snap type closure? I'm a little nervous about magnetic closures in general (credit card demagnetization). Any bad experiences?

I've had it since the beginning of January and not had any problems. Before that, I had a Vaja (for my Visor) with a magnetic snap for 2 years without problems. I keep them in my purse, so they are next to my credit cards, but I don't actually keep the cards in the case....

HTH

I use the Covertec case and it is wonderful. All functions including soft reset can be use while in the case. The NX Covertec also has cutouts for the speaker, jog-dail and you can easily use the camera while it is in the case. mem stick slots and cc holder. This thing rocks.

I just got it and am sending it back---It fits way too tight(even if I wait to break it in) I cant use it to do work while in the cover---so I have to PRY it out---and to take pictures you have to remove it---forget about it

[tubbycub]

Simply force-bend the top flip backwards as instructed by someone in the earlier in this thread and it should work out fine.

I just got my case from Bellagio. I ordered the NX case and I got the NR case in the mail. I guess I will find out how good their support really is since sales isn't very good.

i was disappointed in the size too....i sent it back and they graciously refunded me...i then got a covertec which i'm happy with
