Did you see the new FB post from Biowaves? Still no date, but with pictures of the cases and new additional accessory.

Guys, I am quite happy with my soft case reviewed before yet do consider getting tudia for better protection.
Will something like a popsocket or a ring stick to this textured surface though?
Hi Anna, I wrote to you a direct message here on the forum and as an email to your shop contacts, listing some features Iâd like to see in a case. Might share it here if anyone is interested and/or wants to add to the list 
I have the same issue. The case does not help AND also destroyed the metal case:
Hi Mate, I finally had the time to reply to your questions

Iâm also interested in these ones, so yes please, if anyone tried them can you tell if the internal cover holds the phone firm (with some bumbed rim too) and whether the camera window has some rim or if itâs thick enough not to make the camera touch surface when on flat surfaces? Thanks
Got my bark case this weekend and Iâm really happy with it. Edges are high enough to protect the screen if put face down and its not too bulky. Iâm much happier with it then the fairphone case I bought when I got the phone. Would recommend it if you donât want a lanyard or flip case.

For anyone whoâs been waiting, the Biowaves biodegradable case for the FP5 is apparently going on presale today.

die Original-SchutzhĂźlle fĂźr 39 Euro hat nur ca. 0.3mm Ăberstand Ăźber dem Display und sitzt recht locker. Habe mir heute die wesentliche billigere von Conapica gekauft, der ich mit ca 1mm Ăberstand einen wirksameneren Schutz zutraue. (Nach dem Tod des Motherbords beim FP3 bin ich mittlerweile etwas skeptischer mit Fairphone. Wenn mein neues FP5 jetzt auch schon nach gut 4 Jahren versagen solte, war´s das mit dieser MarkeâŚ)
Anyone ordering the case?
Iâd really appreciate a review for it before buying it.
I was expecting it to be the cheaper eco-friendly case (compared to bark), but alas it the price increased slightly compared to the FP4 case.
Itâs a heafty price to pay for a case for me, and now the choice lies between bark and Biowaves, since they cost about the same.
I was going to order one, but theyâre not shipping to the UK so I think my only option for an eco case is from Bark.
Just a heads up:
The German Amazon offers Biowaves cases for the FP4.
Once the FP5 case is out it might also be offered on Amazon or other resellers (perhaps also in the UK?)
I had the same thought at first. However, we should keep in mind that almost all products have increased in price in recent months due to inflation.
In addition, the Bark case is too heavy and bulky for me. The SmartShell 5 from Biowaves offers me more - I especially like the new expandability with the Hanghub.
I pre-ordered the deep black Smartshell 5 together with the Hanghub and the black wrist strap - Iâm excited
I am very satisfied with the Fairphone 4 case from Biowaves. I hope that the new case is just as good for my FP5.
just fyi - if you have signed up for the newsletter, there will be an extra discount on top of the pre-sale price. Maybe the code also works without registering: NEWSLETTERSALE05

I agree it doesnât hold great, especially after a couple of years. Itâs good on the upside and downside, but on the left- and right side you can easily put a (small) fingertip between the bumper and phone. However the protection is amazing. Iâm very clumsy and unfortunately drop my phone quite often. It doesnât have a scratch! The backside doesnât need protection while the sides and front do, thatâs exactly what the bumper provides. I would by the bumper if they had it for the FP5.

Hi! Do you have your original FP5 case now and how well is the protection? I need a GOOD case in case of dropping the phone + placing it with the display down. I need a popsocket to hold my phone so face down on surfaces is the only option.
Hi,
I am using at the Moment the original one, but the Display will Not BE save by dropping IT with this case.
If you use abpop Socket and lay IT in the Display Side IT will BE damaged If you do nor use a Display Safeglass or Foil.
I have one transparent Version also, that IS much better for Display Security

Hello, the original case for FP5 has been heavily criticized in this thread.

I got a bit lost since other cases were mentioned as well. I had hoped the case had been updated in the meantime. Too bad it hasnât, Iâll look for another case when I buy the FP5.
Thank you for the warning! I donât want to buy a display safeglass as I think that shouldnât be necessary.
Which transparant case do you have?
