Price: 60? (Approx: 80 USD) Including Shipping

To start off I would like to say that I have always loved Piel Frama's Cases (as I also have the X5 case) and this case is no exception to their great quality and craftsmanship.

I received the case in a standard UPS Express envelope and the case was in their standard box with the box well protected in bubble wrap. The presentation is amazing with a great box.

When I first took the case out I noticed the great quality of the leather, it is very soft yet durable leather and you can tell it is very high grade. The edges are all very nicely stitched and in some areas is almost like branded so that it is a smooth edge and not rough. This case comes in black or tan and for review we received a black model.

Before I go into the fit, you should know this is a universal case that comes in a few different sizes. When you go through Piel Frama's selector it will automatically go to the Unipur Big Size. This is the size that the X50 Series fits in. When you slide the X50 in there is a bit of room that it can move around (to be expected with a universal case), but it is not so much that it will hurt the unit at all, or cause any real problems.

To open and close the case, the top portion slides over the bottom (larger portion) where the unit is. This works well and provides quite a neat look when the case is closed. I have really never seen anything like it in Pocket PC cases (and trust me, I have seen lots of cases).

There is no belt clip on this case so you do have a nice finished look, but if you are one that likes to use belt clips, this could be a downside. This case does not add much to the dimensions of the X50 though, so it easily fits in a pocket.

My sample was a straight black case and it looked wonderful. I also have used the tan case (for the X50) and they both look wonderful. The quality of the colors and the leather is wonderful.

This case is very simplistic in design so there is not a ton to write about it, except that the fit is very good for a universal case, and the leather quality is like no other!

Overall I think if you have the money to buy a good case and you want an executive feel with great functionality and looks, the Piel Frama is for you. From using my X5 case I know the leather holds up very well and its is tough. The workmanship is great and nothing beats it. This Unipur model also gives a very unique look and feel that I think many will enjoy.

Thanks to Piel Frama for the Review Product, I used pictures from Piel Frama's website because they were the clearest and easiest to see from all angles. They truly represent exactly what you get. If you would like to see how the case comes, look at the pictures in my X5 Piel Frama review here: CLICK HERE The packaging and boxing is the same as the X5 case's in the review.
