Simple and Decent Case
Very nearly accidentally binned the plastic screen protector! Make sure to put on buttons end first as I overlapped the plastic perspex.
The two hardcase parts were very simple to clip on, literally seconds.
It seems to make the BB look more rugged now, but am safe in the knowledge that it's well protected.
There seem like there are a number that offer similar protection but very glad I decided on this one.

Perfect - just what I've been looking for!
Been trying to find something to fit my phone properly for ages and this is just perfect. Easy to fit, easy to remove when needed, and looks great as well - just right!

Looks better than it performs
The product looks and feels good, but the front guard comes off very easily if knocked,the fit is not tight enough. The back fits fine.

Some good / some bad
Th product as a whole is average but the clear protective cover for the screen which came as part of the kit was completely useless. The stickers that you have to peel off simply don't peel off and left me with a big sticky patch on the part of the screen. The only solution was to remove the screen cover and bin it. The top cover too is a bit loose / prone to come off if it is in a pocket etc.

Wouldn't buy again
On the whole a good idea however front part of case constantly comes off, especially when in a handbag. Wouldn't buy another one until manufacturer has come up with a solution!!!

Very good product
The rear case is an excellent fit, however I find that the front part of the case which goes over the slide keeps falling off as the lugs don't seem to be able to keep it in place. However it's better than a broken/scratched phone!

Easy to use
I was worried I was going to hash up the screen protector, and end up with bubbles. I followed the easy instructions and the screen protector went on with very few bubbles that were very easily removed.
The protector has had no affect on the sensitivity of the screen and I have not had to make any adjustments to my settings.
The case clicked on easily. Its a harder rubber rather than a softer gel like rubber which I was expecting, but it look like it will protect my phone from any dropping that I am likely to do.
The case fitted on perfectly and allows the camera len, flash, buttons, and charger to still be easily accessed with no fiddling with the cover required. Whilst still looking sleek, and not to bulky.
The rim of the cover over the screen part of the phone is raised off the phone which does make the hard keys feel a little bit smaller to the touch. However they are still easily accessed and responsive.
Overall a good purchase and well worth the £16 I spent on it.

case
It's ok, I wouldn't say it's brilliant but it is a good thing to have
the only flaw is the cover it comes off too easily.

Excellent, but front is easy to come off.
I am completely happy with the product, the screen protector was a bit fiddly but once it was on, it does the job. The case feels nice and robust - not that I have purposefully dropped my phone on the floor just to see...! My only criticism is that the front of the case is quite wiggly and noisy and comes off very easily and so I cannot put it loose in my bag, it must go in the zipped up compartment which can be quite irritating. Other than that - the case does the job.

Blackberry 9800 protective case
Product came quick. good price and easy to fit. The back casing fits good but the front, although fitting is easy, is not as secure as the back. It's a bit baggy on the sides - could do with some twin stick tape. Once all fitted, I didn't get on with this case because the phone was rocking when you press the green and red keys. This is due to the clip mechanism of the cover, which is in the middle of the slide section of the phone.
I have since taken off the front case as it started to annoy me. However, the protective screen is good.

Overall, I'm satisfied
Within a week of getting my new BB Torch and instantly went looking for a protective case.
The Case-Mate Barely There Case is overall quite a good product. I LOVE the back session, it definitely protects it and makes it feel safe. I have some issues with the front. The cover seems to keep coming off too easily and seems to add quite a big lip and makes some of the buttons slightly harder to reach.

CASE
Exactly as described. the plastic front cover was a bit of a pain to get all the air bubbles out but once once on looked OK. ideal item if you need to use the Phone a lot and still protect it, but will never take the place of a leather carry case for complete protection when carried in a pocket.

98% good
This is a very nice case although I have one criticism, the top half of the case is slightly flexible therefore creeks if u press it in a certain place. Otherwise pleased with the case and would recommend it.

good but
This is a good item, for protection, the screen cover needs to go on exact or it is dificult to get rid of the air bubbles, the front of the protector is not very secure as it tends to fall off, but it just clips straight back on so not an inconvinience, otherwise a good protection of the phone at a good price

Case-Mate Barely There Case - BlackBerry Torch 980
Good soft touch material. Cover for unit fits and stays on very well. Cover for slider fits well but can be quite easily dislodged.
Fitting the single (there should be two or three supplied - Casemate take note) screen protector is akin to a surgical operation.
Overall an effective product but could be better.

Case-Mate Barely There Case - BlackBerry Torch 980
Have to say that I was a little bit disappointed with this product. It is okay but a couple of aspects let it down.
The fit for the front of the case isn't as snug as the back part, feeling a little bit loose and as a result tends to come off quite a bit. I could live with that, but the real downer for me is in using the case with the 4 main keys on the phone - you have to slip your fingers "up and over" the raised bit of the case to press them - slightly awkward for me.
Aside from that ok, I pretty much just use the bottom part of the case now.

Case Mate barely there for the Blackberry torch
A great case which is "barely there" REally snug fit and fitted with a screen protetor give good protection for the handset. Only one area which could be a little more secure is that the slide up element of the case could do with being slightly more secure. If the handset drops or gets knocked this part of the case seems to come off a little too easy for my liking. Essentially it will protect the handset from the initial drop though the second bounce could do some damage. Overall a good case and definately better than some of the softer cases in the market.

nice fit
The case is a nice fit no hassle, just be very careful to put the screen cover on as it takes a bit of patience but otherwise a good item to have for the Torch.

Surprisingly good product!
Pleasantly surprised. A surprisingly unobtrusive way to protect your phone if you don't want to keep pulling it out of a wallet.
Functional rather than attractive, matt black, soft-ish touch finish. Good fit. Adds to bulk a little and slightly hampers bottom keys, but you'd get used to it.
Really can't complain at the price.
