Hi all!, got my 64g N9 last week and would like to thank everyone for the abundance of useful info found here!

TBH, I'm not the most careful of users and already it got flicked onto the ground, not exactly my doing (gf) but I myself do manhandle it quite a bit - putting it in my jean pocket and what not.

Imo I dislike the rubber cover that came it with, feels really odd in my hands and ruins the whole "fits naturally" feel.

Scratches and dings don't really bug me that much although the shiny back plating where the camera sits tend to get scratched up the easiest and it shows up quite obvious.....

Caring for your tech is always good, but so is not stressing over something not worth stressing over. Nokia did say the N9 would age gracefully anyway with the full colour polycarbonate body and all.

I guess... just try not to drop it, hard and enjoy using it more.
