Here you go guy's. It came in some wood shavings so still have to get those off the case. I can tell you that it is light and beautiful. Vey nice work by Grove. Will try it on the phone with my PS film and let you know about the fit

Just got my plain Grove Made case today also and I'm not happy at all with it, the case makes the phone too bulky, I just emailed them so I can return the case and get a refund, it's a great wood case but the phone feels huge in my hand with the case on, feels like I'm holding a EVO...

Wait so you ordered the wooden case expecting it to make the phone feel thinner and now complaining it's bulky? Are you serious? Hey I just bought an SUV but I'm returning it cause i expected it to be the same size as a car. I hope your refund gets denied. :rolleyes:

So I am impressed with this case. It does add bulk...but what case doesn't, it actually feels A LOT better than what I was expecting. The bamboo is super light and Grove had a very nice black suede like material to protect the back. Here's the only problem. I have a PS Crystal on (just the front, had to take off the back screen protector) and it fits well (very tight) but I have had some bubbles show up on the left edge, which I don't mind just don't want to get the screen scratched. The phone just looks nice and I got what I wanted....a different and unique case.

No Ass, I didn't expect it to be that bulky. Where did you read that I was expecting it to be thinner?? Keep rolling your eyes...

Well I've come to my sense and just took off my PS film. The case was too nice for it to be surrounded by bubbles. Why am I keeping the screen protected anyways so when I sell it some other guy enjoys it....the bare screen feels wayyyyy better than any screen protector, can't beleive I bought into that hype....sigh

To: Mav. No problem
