I don't have their case for the Priv yet but I have had 2 of their cases previously and quality wise, they are probably the best made cases that I've owned.

I have two Stilgut cases on my two Passports . The leather quality is top class BUT BUT the quality of PLASTIC material on case body particularly the CORNERS are very very POOR . My mobile dropped once and the corners cracked . This has happened on both the cases . I have used Araldite adhesive to repair the corners . Considering the amount one pays for expensive cases it is not worth it in my honest opinion.

I received one last week.
StilGut UltraSlim, Genuine Leather Case for BlackBerry PRIV, Black
My Priv still slides open well, the case seems to protect it well, the case doesn't add much bulk, and it isn't awkward.
I do not know about it long term.
The cover has felt to protect the screen and mine is covered in pet fur already. The latch doesn't feel that secure but it has not come open on its own.

Of what is available right now, I would vote on this for function and value.

I have experienced the same issues on my Tetded case for Passport. Broken plastic corner on top right corner and was never dropped.

Exactly the same issue. Broken plastic corner on top right of the case body.

Just got the Stilgut UltraSlim for my Priv. This is my second Stilgut case, Had one for the Passport. Same great functionality and quality. Love how it protects the screen and doesn't add much bulk. Totally happy with my purchase

Only thing I dislike is that there is no hole for the notification light. Hardly a deal breaker, though.

According to Amazon Germany the Stilgut will not work with the BB cradle. So I bought the original BB (with the window) even that i would prefer the Stilgut as I was very satiesfied with that in the past.

Have one for Passport and it has been great, use it on and off. Sometimes I want to feel the breeze and run naked and sometimes I get paranoid and run the case 24/7.

Similar experience with the case and the top right corner, snapped not due to dropping but I think from removal of case over a period of time. I stopped the leather separating from plastic further by quickly holding lighter near cover to melt plastic and leather. Looking at the Priv case it will have a longer top corner than the Passport so should be a little more sturdy.

Other than the above issue this case is great, I would buy another one, even bought one for wife's Lumia 930. I have simply just purchased through them direct. Took a couple of weeks to land down under but when you are further away than the moon to Europe that is to be expected :-)

Can you post some images of the case with phone?
I would like to know if opening the screen for use keyboard can damage the rim of the skin.
Thanks.

Which case?

I have a Slitgut case for my Classic, without the clip, and it works for me. Easy to flip the front flap around to the back for typing.
As mentioned above, it will not fit in the standard cradle with the case on, but the wireless charger works even with the case on and the front flap flipped to the back. (I got a RAVPower 3-Coils Wireless Charging Pad Stand from Amazon.)
Slitgut has great customer service. I too had an issue with the upper right-hand corner. The hard plastic edge was fine, but the leather (rubber?) trim was separating. I sent a note with a photo to Slitgut directly, and they offered to replace the case for free. (I bought it through their store on Amazon.) When I asked if I could get one of their Priv cases, instead of a Classic case, as a replacement, they said yes. (Now I'm waiting for Verizon to release the Priv before I get the new case.)

From Amazon.
The Stilgut case are from Germany but the manufacturer is the same of Tetded.
Perfect case, there is hole for led and the flip turn off the screen.
Look the photos.
Hi.

How is the bulk of the ultra-slim vs the OEM case?

[VITOS72]

I dont have the OEM case, but flip of Stilgut looks, for me, thinner.
Perhaps the side edges of Stilgut are a little thicker because made of leather, but I prefer it instead of the OEM in plastic.

Just got a confirmation for a credit refund for my original flipcase from Blackberry.. Used it for a month, stitching was letting go and I was disappointed anyway with the hole original BB flipcase. Issue for me was that when in pocket, the "flip" would slide easily in all directions making the screen wake up unnessecary.. Also the hole fit is to wide..
Thinking now on getting the StilGut flipcase with extra clip for closing.. Wondering which on to choose, the bookstyle case, or the flipcase which opens from top to bottom..? any thoughts someone?

Hi.

Yes, I was going to ask: do Stilgut and Tetded use the same supplier? Their leather flip cases, other than their branding, look exactly the same!

Actually, the pictures you QUOTED are different than my Tetded case. None of those cutouts on the front at the top or speaker grill at the bottom.

The Tetded seems to have a thin foam "stuffing" which adds to its bulk or thickness. I might have preferred less of it.

Also, I prefer a small flap to keep the phone latched which is what drove me to the Tetded. But I'm not sure that I like the Tetded - still deciding. And then there are reports that the corners wear prematurely.

I was going to say that that looks exactly like a Tetded.
