Display key leather case

Thought I would share this link for anyone who like myself was looking for the same display key case as seen in most youtube reviews!

Pretty pricey for a case!

In Msia it's times 5.5 due to the exchange rate. Absurd

I think that's probably what my dealer is giving me as a freebie.

Booked the 530i. Expected delivery later this month.

Who would have thought that a BMW branded accessory would be appear to be 'good' value for money! Not a good value as your pocket though.

Exactly. You'd have to take it out of the pouch then use it then fumble it back in. Lame.

I just tried to order this case but the mont blanc website says it is currently unavailable, where did you order it from? would they deliver to the UK?

Yes! Wireless charging does occur with the leather montblanc sleeve as well.

Who would've thought we'd have to spend so much money just to have a means for attaching a key ring?

It reminds me the kind of leather phone protection we had back in the 90's on Nokia phones..
it just looks bulky, ugly and useless for a car key, even if it is branded Mont Blanc (I actually use a credit card and wallet from that brand).
I will just keep the display key as is.. when my car will be delivered !

I was pleasantly surprised by how sleek the display key is. I mean it's still massive for what it is but it looks a lot bulkier in videos.

The display key is not as big as it appears in videos. It is definitely much smaller than the smallest of iPhones (iPhone 4)

Agree. I thought some owners said the same but I like it. I wish it were the size of a credit card, but tech not there yet I guess.
