Nokia N95

I finally got around to changing my case to one of the full replacement black ones I purchased on ebay. I really like the look of it now that I have done it.

I will say that, the non oem back cover doesnt have the same grip, it feels to smooth and has almost slipped out of my hand twice while sliding open the phone.

Quality appears to be good but I feel the front fascia will scratch to easly.

The hardest part of the transfer was slowing peeling off the ribbon cables form the old case without ripping them.

Cant decide if I should put back on the siver menu keys? whatdo you think ?

hi mate that looks the biz top job just waiting for my case that i orderd from ebay hopefully want mines to look like yours dont supose you have a guide on how to change the whole lot do you would be great thanks

Sorry slim, I tried to look for a guide myself but could not find one.

All I can say, is go slow when removing the green ribbon system board things lol.. they are very thing and will rip easly.

There is also, I presume its a silver magnet you have to remove and transfer into your new case. It very small but you should notice it, unlike me, who had to re-open my phone once I noticed my slide did not function.

I have now replaced the black menu keys with the silver ones.. I prefer the look.

theyre horrible. I got a first set,, and the black peels off with my finger and the N95 fades away (at the top) I emailed the guy and he said hell send a beter one. Same thing after a week the Imprinted N95 faded away and the case got scracthed. The d pad is also not raised and not easy to use ull feel the difference when you go back to the silver one. I still am using the back cover (black) which seems to be ok

I love the black, would be tempted to purchase one to replace my current case but lack of N95 branding is putting me off.

Do you do the menu key's with symbol branding still on them ? also, do you do them in silver and black like the N95-8b?

Looks fantastic tho, from the photo's.

hay thanx for the fedback! yeh i can do the black covers with branding still intact! however this was a custom order on my site and was metallic black and not really possable to keep the keys symbols, however we can do normail black with symbols intact! i dont have a pick of black but here is ones done for other customers with brandins intact...

as u can see we can keep the branding in most cases!

Those are mint!

Do they do replacement cases for the N95 8GB, in black, OEM? Would love one, and somebody may of found one, but I'm not reading 28 pages in this topic :P
