But i re-measured, and it seems that the model has small error too.

From the model: inner length = 127.34079 measured from print 127.2
phone 127.75

inner width = 65.443081 measured from print 65.3
phone 65.0

I just ordered some Premium PLA 90 from Orbi-tech. Lets see is it any better, color selection is poor for 1.75mm (3mm better)

I think i have asked, but what cad do you use? possible to share originals under DWTFYWT-license ? or just for me, i'll buy you a beer or ES
Yes, there's is a small error in model but not so big as that comment in GitHub indicates. I measured the dimensions with a simple ruler and made some scaling afterwards so there's definetely small errors (+-0.5mm) + PLA shrinks a little.

I modeled the model originally with Autodesk 123D Design: https://www.123dapp.com/design
The .iges and .step can be found from here: http://relativity.fi/jolla_toh/3dmodels/ (I'll add the DWTFYWT-license). Those were converted with FreeCAD from .stl back to solid models. I can of course provide the 123D Design file too if needed.
