Nokia Lumia 1520 Protective Cover – A closer look

Post-obit the full review of the forthcoming Lumia 1520, it seems advisable to show the CP-623 cover in more detail.

The Protective Cover for the Lumia 1520 comes in Reddish or Yellow and information technology will cost around $40. Currently, the Microsoft Store has it listed as out of stock, but presumably the case should be available this Fri. It's not clear if AT&T Stores will offer the cover, though AT&T sometimes passes on official Nokia accessories.

Equally you can come across in our video review, the CP-623 is an 'ok' accessory. The soft, felt cover protects the display when placed in your pocket or bag, and the difficult shell dorsum cover (with corner protection) shields against minor drops and banging.

The cover doesn't latch in whatever way, flopping effectually a bit, just it can be rolled back on to itself to be used as a kickstand (as seen in our atomic number 82 photo). It works but it's a little tricky and cumbersome.

Luckily, the cover adds very little to the size of the Lumia 1520. On the negative, this does not offer wireless charging, making it of express appeal to those who desperately want that feature.

Do I recommend the CP-623 ? Yep, for bones protection. It's decent and gets the job done. It is expensive though for $twoscore and nosotros're non exactly blown abroad by its design, and then gear up your expectations low for the cover. Personally, if you're not prone to drops and you think you can go a few weeks, y'all may want to expect for another third party options to go available.
