4 Cool Samsung Galaxy S2 Cases

Wednesday, September 28th, 2011

Introduction

Today I thought I’d shine a light on four cool Samsung Galaxy S2 covers I’d found over the weekend. EachSamsung Galaxy S2 case, or coque samsung galaxy s2 as you might say in France, has a unique and clever design, lending a brush of brilliance to your already thin and fit sim free Samsung Galaxy S2. Let’s have a look.

4. GelaSkins Protective Skin – Infinite Oz

The Infinite Oz skin is one of the nicest Samsung Galaxy S2 skins I’ve seen in a long time, offering a beautiful design by Philip Straub of what is either the Wizard of Oz or Australia. Whichever it is, it looks absolutely fantastic, as you can see below:

3. Superhero Protective Back Cover – Superman

This protective Samsung Galaxy S2 cover features the famous Superman symbol. Beyond the cool looks, the case also serves as effective protection for the back and sides, although Samsung Galaxy S2 screen protectors could be applied to good effect on the front. The case is compatible with all Samsung Galaxy S2 chargers and cables, as all necessary cutouts are provided.

2. GelaSkins Protective Skin – Motherboard

Here’s another GelaSkins Protective Skin, this time in the design of a Motherboard. It’s important to note that this Samsung Galaxy S2 skin is not a Samsung Galaxy S2 screen protector; it provides little scratch resistance. However, it does remain compatible with a large number of Samsung Galaxy S2 accessoriesincluding Samsung Galaxy S2 car holders and Samsung Galaxy S2 desk stands, so it’s a fairly even trade-off between compatibility and protection.

1. Superhero Protective Back Cover – Batman

What’s cooler than a Superman back cover? A Batman back cover, obviously! Like its predecessor, this back cover will protect your phone whilst adorning it in the iconic Batman logo, marking you as a protector of the innocent and all-around cool guy in one fell swoop.

Top 5 Xperia Ray Cases

Wednesday, September 28th, 2011

The sim free Xperia Ray is a cracker of a phone; the innards of the great Xperia Arc stuffed into a tiny, beautiful shell. The phone measures just 111 x 53 x 9.4mm and weighs 100g, making it one of the smallest smartphones available, and one of the few that doesn’t sacrifice inner firepower to achieve its small size. The unlocked Xperia Ray is certainly a worthy phone for our attention, so today we’ll be looking at the bevy of Xperia Ray accessories available; specifically we’ll identify the top five Xperia Ray cases.

Are you ready to get underway? Too bad, let’s go!

5. Dicota Lov Protective Sleeve

This Dicota Lov Protective Sleeve starts out our Xperia Ray case coverage today. The sleeve is made of a high quality wool/acrylic mixed with real leather accents to provide a durable and protective shield for your phone. Inside, you’ll find a handy credit card holder. This Xperia Ray cover also is ideal for use with Xperia Ray car holders and Xperia Ray desk stands, as removing the case to place it into these holders is quite easy.

4. Protective Hard Shell

This Protective Hard Shell is made by Sony Ericsson themselves, and as such is guaranteed to fit precisely. The shell provides back-and-sides protection to the Xperia Ray, preventing damage to those areas from drops and falls. Scratches are also resisted, although for full protection a Xperia Ray screen protector is always recommended. The shell provides a good mix of protection and size, not comprimising the Xperia Ray’s slim shape. The hard shell also allows use of your Xperia Ray charger and camera thanks to dedicated cutouts.

3. Krusell ColorCover

The Krusell ColorCover aims to provide a different look for your Xperia Ray sim free. If you bought it in white and would prefer it in black, or vice versa, then this is the cover for you. Its extremely slim profile ensures that you’re not paying a heavy size price for the privilege, and the impact-resistant plastic shell keeps the phone safe. It’s certainly one of the nicer Xperia Ray cases available.

2. Proporta Aluminium Slip Pouch

The Proporta Aluminium Slip Pouch is a great Xperia Ray pouch, offering excellent protection in a stylish case. Unlike most other Xperia Ray pouches, the Slip Pouch comes with a tough aluminium core that will protect your phone from damage whilst inside. There’s also a handy pull tab that allows you to pull out your Xperia Ray unlocked easily.

1. Krusell Orbit Flex Premium Leather Case

The Krusell Orbit Flex is a premium Xperia Ray leather case, providing a good mix of looks, features and protection for its price. The Orbit Flex comes custom-fitted to the Xperia Ray, and includes all of the cutouts you’d expect, allowing connection of Xperia Ray chargers and the like. The case also comes with a removable front lid so that you don’t have to keep pinning it back, making Xperia Ray screen protectors a useful option. Finally, the case even comes with a belt clip so that you can keep your Ray within easy reach.

Not bad at all, and for that reason the Orbit Flex gets the nod this time.

Conclusion

That’s all for now. I’m quite impressed with the Xperia Ray, so look for more articles on this topic later on! If you found this helpful or had a question about mobile phone accessories, please let us know via the normal social media channels, or leave a comment below. Thanks!

Top 5 Stylish Samsung Galaxy Ace Cases

Tuesday, September 27th, 2011

Introduction

The Samsung Galaxy Ace is a nice mid-range phone, with a lot of the great TouchWiz features of the Galaxy S2 at a significant fraction of the price. Let’s have a closer look at some of the best, most stylish Samsung Galaxy Ace cases, eh?

5. She Pack

The She Pack includes three Samsung Galaxy Ace covers, with girly designs on each. Two of the cases are silicone-based Samsung Galaxy Ace skins, and the other is a diamante hard shell. Each design is unique, and with three you can swap out to suit your mood, on different days of the week, or just buy it for your two best friends. All of them include cutouts so you can plug in your Samsung Galaxy Ace charger and will protect your phone from damage. A low cost addition to these as items of protection would be three Samsung Galaxy Ace screen protectors, as the screen on these cases does remain exposed.

4. InvisibleSHIELD Full Body Protector

Speaking of screen protectors, the InvisibleSHIELD is essentially a massive Samsung Galaxy Ace screen protector that encompasses the whole phone. If you’re happy with how the Samsung Galaxy Ace looks already, then there’s no need to add a giant case to spoil the party – just add the InvisibleSHIELD and you’ll have the benefit of scratch resistance without compromising on anything else. Another benefit is that you’ll be able to easily fit your phone into a Samsung Galaxy Ace desk stand or Samsung Galaxy Ace car holder. Nice.

3. Protective Back Cover – Skulls

This one’s probably one for the guys, with this Protective Back Cover containing a number of skulls. The macabre design looks right at home with the Samsung Galaxy Ace’s dark exterior, and gives a little bit of personality to your phone. The Samsung Galaxy Ace  case, which covers just the back and sides of the phone, provides good protection against scratches, drops and falls. As always, there’s a cutout to allow the use of Samsung Galaxy Ace chargers.

2. Diamante Back Cover – Zebra

This Diamante Back Cover is a cool, surprisingly tasteful glitzy colour that’s coloured like a zebra. The case is similar to the skulls one listed earlier, protecting the back and sides of your phone from all kinds of damage, although the front isn’t protected at all.

1. Silicone Case – Keep Calm and Carry On

Ever wake up in the morning feeling that you’re just not British enough? That used to happen to me, but then I bought the Keep Calm and Carry On silicone case for the Samsung Galaxy Ace. Each morning, my phone wakes me from my slumber. As I lift it up to shut off the alarm, I catch a glimpse of the iconic British slogan and feel that by calming muting the alarm and carrying on sleeping, I’m getting one step closer to being a better Brit.

Silicone Case for Samsung Galaxy Ace - Keep Calm and Carry On

For that reason, I’m awarding this silicone case our top spot. It may provide protection, it may make your Ace easier to hold on to, but for me this simple phrase is all that matters.

Top 5 Sony Ericsson Experia Arc Cases

Tuesday, September 27th, 2011

Introduction

The Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc, beyond being a really long name, is one of Sony’s best phones for a while. It’s only got a single core processor, but does make the most of it with a beautifully slim body and a stunning display. Now, we look at the latest Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc accessories, specifically the top five Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc cases available. Let’s get started, shall we?

5. InvisibleSHIELD Full Body Protector

We start our exploration of the best Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc covers with an unusual one – the InvisibleSHIELD Full Body Protector. As the name implies, this simple case is just a full body Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc screen protector. The case guards against scratches well, and also ensures that the Arc’s light silhouette remains unblemished. However, this case doesn’t provide any protections against accidental drops and falls, making it a potentially risky proposition. One good point is that it is fully compatible with all Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc desk stands and Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc car holders, due to its negligible size.

4. Wood Design Hard Case

This unique Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc case isn’t made from wood (even though it’s called the Wood Design Hard Case), but does provide much much protection than wood would. The case’s wood design is quite convincing, and lends n old-school feel to your phone. The Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc cover encompasses the back and sides of the device, protecting these from damage from drops, falls, scratches or scrapes. One down side is that Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc screen protectors aren’t included.

3. Orbit Flex Krusell Premium Leather Case

The Orbit Flex Krusell is a Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc leather case that provides good protection from dangers as well as a very neat look. Unlike other Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc leather cases, the Arc includes a useful removable lid that grants full access to the phone. Another useful extra is the included belt clip, which lets you carry your safely when you’re on the job or on the move. As with the other cases, Sony Ericsson Experia Arc chargers will work just fine.

2. Bling My Thing Hard Case – Milky Way Pink Mix

This dazzling Bling My Thing Hard Case looks fantastic, providing a healthy dose of glitz and glamour to your otherwise staid and squalid existence (only kidding). The case comes in a snow white colour, and uses Swarovski Elements diamonds to provide an extra sheen of shine. The fancy case also provides good protection to your phone and includes an anti-scratch coating to keep both the phone and the case looking good.

1. Case-Mate Barely There

Sometimes when you want to look good, the best thing to be a little minimalistic. The Barely There is quite in line with this reasoning, providing a very slim profile to the already skinny Xperia Arc, whilst adding a surprising amount of protection. This balance between protection and size, particularly coming in a glossy white case that looks the business, gives the Barely There the edge it needs to come out on top this time. Excellent.

Latest 5 BlackBerry Torch 9800 Cases

Tuesday, September 27th, 2011

Let’s have a look at the most recent BlackBerry Torch 9800 accessories, including BlackBerry Torch 9800 covers and BlackBerry Torch 9800 skins — all kinds!

5. InvisibleSHIELD

The InvisibleSHIELD, as its name suggests, is a kind of full body BlackBerry Torch 9800 screen protector. Instead of just providing protection to the phone’s screen, this special BlackBerry Torch 9800 skin will cover the whole affair, providing scratch and scrape protection.

4. Carry Pouch

The Carry Pouch is a simple but effective BlackBerry Torch 9800 case. The pouch opens horizontally, allowing easy storage on a belt. The case closes magnetically, ensuring your phone will remain secure whilst in transit. The BlackBerry Torch 9800 leather case is high quality, and provides a no-frills approach to Torch security. This case also meshes well with your BlackBerry Torch 9800 car holder or BlackBerry Torch 9800 desk stand, as you simply remove the phone from its case to use it as normal.

3. PDair Leather Flip Case

The PDair Leather Flip Case is another of these BlackBerry Torch 9800 leather cases. The BlackBerry Torch 9800 cover looks even better than the last case, with a sleek look and complementary stitching. This flip case obviates the need for a BlackBerry Torch 9800 screen protector, as it’ll keep the screen covered during use.

2. Otterbox Commuter

The Otterbox Commuter is perhaps the most protective BlackBerry Torch 9800 skin available. It’s a two part system, comprised of a silicone inner layer that deadens impacts, along with a hardened plastic outer shell which resists crushing damage. The design has exposed corners to allow for greater impact reduction.

1. Case-Mate Barely There

The Case-Mate Barely There is another high-protection case for the BlackBerry Torch 9800, but provides that protection in a vastly smaller space. The Barely There also looks fantastic, with a very cool metallic silver finish that really makes your phone stand out. With such a combination of looks, armour and size, it’s no wonder the Barely There is our winner of the day.
