    Hand-made Leather Case

    Hello,

    I have recently been searching for a quality case for my new Meizu M6/SL.

    The reason being that I was not particularly impressed with the cheap looking crystal case and the dust magnet generic silicone skin supplied with the player.

    Well I have found a Spanish company called Piel Frama, which manufactures hand-made leather cases for both the M6 SL and TP versions of the miniplayer.

    I thought that some of you would be interested in this product.

    If you click on the following link you will see what the cases look like and what colours are available Meizu M6SL Cases.

    I have just ordered one.

    Regards,

    Eugol14. :D

    Wow, nice find! It even comes with a money pocket. Which colour did you order? You should post here once you get it, I really want to buy one too. Practical and good-looking, just pure awesomeness.

    Looks brilliant. The clip should also work with an armband. Please tell us how reliable this company is.

    I have ordered a black case to match my black M6/SL.

    I have had an e-mail confirming that my order should be delivered within the next 10 days.

    I will post my feedback on the case and the company once I have received my order.

    By the way, I have found a Youtube video of the cases that shows the features of the product.

    Here's the link.

    Enjoy!!!!:D

    As harsh as Hendrik put it, I have to agree.
    Then again, I've never been a fan of Leather Cases, whether it's on a Cell-Phone, MP3 Player, or any other Electronic Device.

    the M6 deserves to stay slim ( by design ) ! with these SM leather overwears it is then almost thicker than a Cowon D2, which is just about its main weakness ...

    It's arrived!

    Hi everyone,

    I just wanted to let you all know that my leather case for my Meizu M6/SL arrived today.

    It is in my opinion a very well crafted and good looking product.

    The quality of the workmanship is very high as is the company's customer service.

    The case fits the player very well indeed with full access to the hold button, headphone socket and USB socket. The belt clip attachment is very easy to add or remove from the case depending on preference. The case makes the player about 30% to 40% thicker, the length and width is about the same as a crystal case.

    I would highly recommend this product for any M6 owner that wants to protect their investment and make their Miniplayer look even more stylish.

    And to all those who don't like leather cases, you don't know what you are missing.

    Compared to the cheap and nasty crystal and silicone cases from Meizu or third party companies, this product is a high quality, professional case that is in a completely different league.

    And finally, if nothing else, it smells wonderful!

    Regards,

    Eugol.

    Hi,

    The case looks nice but the belt clips they use seem to be too big and chunky. I had a silicon case for a mobile phone using a similar type of belt clip and it just sat too far away from my waist and It bumped into things when I walked around. So to anyone that has one of these what is the belt clip like, is it too chunky?

    Personally, no I don't think it is too chunky.

    Yes it's about half the size of the player, but once I have got it clipped onto my belt I really don't notice it too much.

    The clip needs to be large enough to support the weight of the player securely.

    If you really don't like the clip it can be removed very easily.

    With or without the belt clip this is a practical great looking case.

    I am happy that I bought one. :D
