How a Nokia case is made is certainly cause by the phone's overall dimensions. Almost all of the Nokia cases are in their original position, for instance, the mobile phone is made to be used, even opened up, without the Nokia case being taken out. The Noreve Nokia case is no different and the goal is, as customary, to offer mechanical shielding from impacts and drops, to protect the exposed camera glass from scrapes and scratches, and of course to look nice.


Fortunately, the Noreve Tradition triumphs at every respect. In folded over mode, you can notise the superb leather finish, perfectly stitched. In the Nokia case it is blue, however, you can order the leather in another colour, by display. The flap on the top is bound round to the back with a flap and press-stud and the fit and grip is amazing. The additional panel has a screw thread in and you can screw in the optional belt clip stud when you want to take photos. It takes only 10 seconds to take out and leave the Nokia case well stocked.


The Nokia case itself is made of two leather layers, the inner one embossed very nicely with the manufacturer logo and offering a level of additional shock shielding. The phone's construction is maintained with no less than eight clips, of varied sizes, each of which connect easily but sturdily over the curved edge of the device's frame, to millimetre accuracy. Different from other well positioned Nokia cases, the Noreve Tradition can be pulled off and back on the device in just a few seconds, if needed at all.




In standard use of Nokia cases, the unprotected camera glass is entirely wrapped, if you need to take a snap (or use the torch feature) then the camera flap sways down simply and bends entirely flat under the construction of the device, it is not improperly difficult.


The Nokia case has accurate cut-outs, some with integrated metal mesh, for the phone's mics and speakers. Once more, there are not enough reasons to praise the fit and finish of the Noreve Tradition enough, different from some other Nokia case designers, you can tell that Noreve minded to get a real device and run through a number of design recapitulations before ending on their production Nokia case.


While in opened mode, you are offered to choose between two options: the top flap of the Tradition can be left stretched to the left and looks a little clumsy, and the camera flap adds a degree of totter to the Nokia cased phone, in case you want to try typing on a flat surface. Or you can simply bend the top flap all the way back under the device, offering even more totter but having the benefit of raising the phone further off your table and way from dust and other minor damage, maybe.

Made for thumb typing in two hands, the top flap of the Nokia case is certainly best tucked under and offers a nice gripping surface for your fingers.
