Hmmm... looks to be about the same price if not cheaper than a non-metal OEM option. I wonder how the fit is.

Anyone gonna snatch one up? I think I'd miss the texture of the OEM case though- and I don't really care for the idea of a black N95. Don't think it looks proper at all.

If you're looking for a black case though- metal would be nice!

Hard to tell from the pics but it looks to be well made...

EDIT:
Looks can be deceiving! See later posts!

Bit mystified as to why the back cover incorporates the protective shutter for the camera tho! The original is glued to the PCB and is classed as a non-reusable component, why this comes attached to the back cover is puzzling.

Yeah don't put a £3 case on your £500 N95. It's just not right! I'm sticking with genuine only from now on.

Black with chrome doesn't look that great to me.

However I'd love to switch the deep plum back cover to a black or warm graphite... It's a lot more purple than I'd thought/hoped.
