Good case for Prime - CheshireChris - 08-15-2024 04:06 PM

I'm not a fan of the hard slip-on cover supplied with the Prime, so I looked around for alternatives and found this:

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B088NZ1JLB

It's arrived today, and I like it. It fits the Prime very well and gives a good level of protection to it. I was hoping it might fit the 50G as well, but although the width and height are OK, the case is obviously designed specifically for the Prime and doesn't have sufficient depth for the 50G. Good Prime case, though. Recommended.

Nice! This https://a.co/d/cVcR2ZG might be the same thing in the USA store.

Good case indeed, I have the same.

I previously bought a case for the HP Prime from Eduwinkel. I don't like it all too much, because it is too bulky in my opinion. After using it on and off I am actually not sure anymore that I really need a case anyway. Should I decide to go back to using a case on a regular basis I'd check out the cases mentioned above though, since they seem to be a better fit for the HP Prime.

I finally got around to purchasing a Prime instead of using the software versions, so the first thing I looked for was a good case. After much searching, I think I have found the perfect one. Here is the Amazon link: https://a.co/d/7Zq1Moo.

The case is made of soft, textured PU leather with a Velcro-flap closure and two compartments, one that blocks RFID and one that does not. The Prime fits snugly in either side but I use the non-RFID-blocking side for the Prime. I suppose that leaves the Faraday side for more sensitive items that you may have.

Hope this is useful info!

In my opinion theres no good case for Prime...

All cases i have searched over years, are big, and non-functional.
I dream about old school Casio book case of 80s, and early 90s...

So I designed first quite primitive model for 3D print in PLA, or PET/PCTG.
This first model is far better and more useful for me, than other "big covers" -like pockets...

After close (good protection for screen, and rest of Prime):

Opened (this will open up to 180 degrees).
In left side there is room for a little cheat sheer Smile

Well done! Not bulky yet what my wife calls “an armored calc”. For her, it’s the most important feature of any calculator. And with her track record it’s quite understandable :-)

It fits snugly with the hard shell cover, or without the hard shell cover?
Thanks.
