Tan flip case from Bell

I was prepared for a long hunt for a Passport case but surprisingly stepped into a Bell store in Toronto Eaton Centre and quickly stepped out with the OEM tan flip case. They only have 2 of each of the tan flip case and white hardshell. Well now they only have 1 flipcase left after I stepped in. Really love the tan flipcase. Typing is still quite easy with it on and the adhesive is good. Was hesitant about the colour but in person it actually looks even better than in the pictures, gives a very professional look and feel. But it's not the type of case that will protect your phone if dropped, unlike the Z30 flipcase.

Also, after 24 hrs with the phone, typing isn't at all a problem for me. Type almost as well as I did on my curve about 2 years ago. I guess I just adapt easily. What I really love is how easily I can go in to correct words, etc. using the keyboard to control the "cursor ". That was the biggest pain with the all-touch.

nice, if you can add pictures would be great, but the fact that it won't protect the phone in a fall is a kind of show stopper for me...

Is this case designed to be added and removed as needed? Or permanent?

I'd like to have the ability to add the case intermittently, as needed. Not 24-7

Does it have a magnet that: i. wakes up the phone; ii. keeps the flap shut?

From my understanding, the adhesive is reusable. So you can remove and reattach as needed.

Also, there is a magnet in the flap that puts your phone to sleep when closed - same function as previous BB flipcases.

It does have a magnet. The flap doesn't shut very well but it may be because it is still new and needs to be broken in.

yeap, it looks pretty nice, congrats... but yes, it won't help in a fall at all... if one of these phones drop and hit the corner, i am afraid it will be in trouble...

You guys say typing isn't an issue.
Cool, but how about taking a picture?
Does it feel fine for that?
Or does that feel akward, like taking a pic with a book??

I can't tell you how jealous I am of you. I ordered a black one from ebay that will be here in two weeks but I could not find the tan one anywhere online.
