I don't like the white stitching on the roxfit side flip.

I have the second one, received it as a pre-order bundle, and I have to say it's very good and stylish. I'm not using it anyway cause i don't like hiding my phone in a case, but from those two I can recommend Roxfit.

Which one you are using ?

Or your just applied Screen Protector on front and back.

Can you provide you opinion on quality of back glass, does it require SP to protect against scratches ?

I'm using this one on the back:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SPIGEN-SGP...item2a29310e3a

On the fronst I applied the one that Sony put in Xperia Z box.

The back is made of Gorilla Glass 2 so it's as scratch resistant as any other high-end phone these days, there is an anti-shatter film applied on it though, and this film is not that scratch resistant. My opinion: use SP on front and back to prevent the anti-shatter film from scratching. The longer you can keep it on, the better ( although it ( the antishatter film ) can always be removed and replaced with another screen protector )

Agreed. I've decided not use a flip case anymore. Its to beautiful to hide. Still seeking the perfect case that protects (I drop and bang up my phones alot) and showcases it ....
