I think the rim is not deformed. The back cover is just not put on properly.
Now the back covers for FP2 are in the shop.

Just a pity that people who order now can add a 2nd one to the same shipment but not those who already pre-ordered
Anyway, this way I am going to wait until I need to order something else as well - especially since the shipping costs are 11 ā¬ for the back cover on its own as well even though this is no hazardous product at all and could be sent in a padded envelopeā¦
But probably this is ok since I truly do not think Iād really need another back cover - itās more that I also liked the blue matteā¦
Maybe you can find others, who would be willing to do a bulk order.
I agree with you, itās really a pity and I wouldāve liked to order a second one as well directly. I guess itās one of the (smaller and more trivial) risks of preordering. Maybe this could be improved with future Fairphones, thoughā¦

[/quote] You only need to be lucky enough to have enough fairphoners around you!
You can just come along to Amsterdam and pick one up when visiting FP
Actually, did you ever ask support whether it is possible to extend your order by another FP2 back cover? That might not be so difficult!
Yes, if you find that out, please let us know
I just raised this questions to support. Will report back if I got an answer.
Cheers, Robert
Update: After only 40 minutes
I already got an anwser
(awsome response time for the support!!):
Unfortunately it is not possible to mutate an existing and paid for order.
If you would like to have several items in one order, you can have us cancel and refund your existing order so you can place a new one including all the items.
This does mean that you shall have a later delivery time for this new order than the old, existing order.
Thatās a serious bummer!
They canāt even ship two orders in the same package?
Guess, we do need to pick those cases up in Amsterdam next fall
The Community trip sounds very tempting and yeah I guess thatāll be the perfect moment to pick up a case (if Fairphone is prepared for direct sales). However, Iām actually quite often in Amsterdam, so Iām probably going to pass on coming with you guys.

http://www.bureoskateboards.com/ making Skateboards and Sunglases out of old fishingnets, it would be grate to have a backcover made out of this material. Would it be possible to get in contact with bureoskateboards and start a backcoverproject?
Do you plan to add a stylish, cool silver metal back cover? Similar to the FP1 or iphone?
I like the look and touch of metal.

A silver one would be fantastic.
That would be a nice way to thanks the FP1 buyers.
It would be funny to have namens for the colors.
Midnight black (dark blue)
Fairphone blue
Lake blue (kind of greenblue like a clear lake)
Canadian green (dark green like the tree in canada)
etc.
Look whoās BACK!
Thanks to @bennett for the find!
So Iām relieved that the āregularā covers are still manufactured. In my eyes, they look better than the āslimā covers whose design I donāt like.
according to the social media team these are not newly produced, but only the last in stock:
