Review Covertec CLie NX73/NX80 case by Ivo Kampshof

Covertec

A few weeks ago I received my covertec NX73/NX80 case. I was able to test the case a few weeks long, and I may say that I won't even think of it to buy another case...

The packaging and installation

The case arrived in a very stylefull, and really good looking package.
The installation over my Clie was simple: I just "moved" my clie in the case and that's it!
It all fits perfectly at the first moment, and it still does....

Usage in normal life

As you see in the picture above, the case looks great, and the leather is of really good quality.
The black leather does look good with my black nx73, and the white stitching adds a nice contrast to the overall design.

Inside the case there's a good protection cover. When you use the case, and you carry some creditcards and memorysticks, the screen might become scratched when you use your clié in tablet mode. The protection cover prevents this.
If you choose not to use the protection cover (what I normally do), you can simply remove it from the case, and reinstall it as much as you like.

You can carry a lot of stuff in this case with you. Below here a list of the things you can carry easily:

- 1 memorystick normal
- 1 bluetooth memorystick
- 4 till 8 business or creditcards

You must notice that the size of the case might increase when you use this stuff: when you don't carry anything the size is like this:

when you carry 2 memorysticks and some creditcards, the size is like this:

The only thing I dislike a litte bit, is that you can't hotsync in the normal cradle.

Of course it's easy to remove your Clié from the case and put it in the cradle, but a synchable case is easier :)
You can also buy a sync-cable, and of course that one is usable.

Belt-clip

Covertec designed a nice new version of the belt clip. The case keeps it's original size, and the only thing to do when you want to use the belt clip, is to screw the round black clip into the hole on the back, and you're done! You receive a screwdriver and some screw's too! Great offer I think!!

Conclusion

I might say that this case is the best one I ever had. I use it everyday at school, and I still love it! The case perfecly fits my needs; I can carry everything I want and for the price of only 44,90 euro's, you really won't miss this one if you have a Clié NX73 or NX80!!

Pros:

- the overall look
- price
- space for cards & memorysticks
- belt clip

Cons:
- no hotsync while in case

Thanks a lot to Covertec for providing this sample!
