The material of the case can desense the mobile radio, and more than this even the paint color of the case can affect the performances. For example shall be careful using colors having oxide pigments, as red color (iron oxide) or white color (zinc oxide).

Desense is happened usually when the case change the path of ground currents of the antenna, or is making the coupling of the digital noise from the board direct to antenna.
