Update regarding the cases (and some other things)

[AndiTheBest]

@EvilDragon You are responsible for that website! If you don't delete that, i will report it to police! Your moderators just offend me by direct message!

Guy was clearly trolling for a long time.. had some fair points but his style of questioning was never meant to raise concerns but just meant to irritate ED and/or community. I guess he succeeded in both.

yep he did, i really have a lot i want to say to that guy, but i would get kicked off this site i think, and me want my pyra

I think that suggesting he delete his account is fairly in bad taste of the image of this community. Despite the fact we all think his opinions are bad/wrong.

Well, I am not actually representing the community, just expressing my opinion .

If you post here with any bit of frequency, you are part of the community. Like it or not.

On the bright side - we're 7 pages into comments on a news post about cases that is only 3 days old. A very involved community.

OK, so the topic has shifted a few times...

Could try this on the case Seemed pretty reasonable to me, but I don't know anything about plastic.

Wedge and buckle an old one, within reason, and then spray and pray.

Looks like I don't have to visit Greece after all.
Some pictures from today my contact made.
Most of the parts are still lying in water (to cool off), so he couldn't take pictures.

But here are some of the parts that are already out of the water, including the machines at work.
Beware of crappy smartphone quality



They're also trying out a different material tomorrow.

 

[Neelix]

Out of interest, What's the goal of this other material test? What are they changing?

Probably to achieve different looks, etc.
I don't know myself, they haven't told me

I want matted cases, not glared once. However, looking at pictures of the matte GPD Win which have been made with smartphones, it also looks very glarey, so I guess this is just an effect there.

I'll make proper pictures once I receive them,

 

[Xcl4m4t10n]

Wow nice, I can breath again .

Hope we can get some more parts photos soon.

 

[second exodous]

This is very good news! I think they're a little shiny also, hopefully it is just the cell phone camera.

 

[Neelix]

Interesting. Sounds like they're trying to make up for dropping the ball by going an extra mile. May be interesting to see what they come up with.

[Stainy]

ooh lovely

 

[remjey]

Nice, thank you for the pictures!

I’m curious though, I highlighted some areas where the plastic seems to have a recess. Is the case supposed to be flat at those places or is it the expected relief? Or is it light that, for some reason, makes those weird-looking reflections?

Hey @EvilDragon, I think you lost a sale...
