The Kindle is selling like hot cakes this Christmas, so the elves here at Mobile Fun have been working extra hard to try and source new Kindle covers for the Kindle 4. Here’s three of my favourites which make your Kindle look like a book!
Lightwedge Verso Amazon Kindle Cover
The first of our Amazon Kindle covers which makes your Kindle look like a book is the Lightwedge Verso cover. Designed in a gorgeous antique red colour, this case offers rugged protection on the outside and a soft microfibre interior so that your Kindle is both protected and cushioned.
Padded to provide extra protection from bumps and minor impacts, the Lightwedge Verso Kindle 4 cover does this without adding any unnecessary bulk to your Kindle .

It’s a beautiful case, which not only oozes elegance and class, but provides first rate protection.

The Motorola RAZR Sim Free arrived in stock this week and it’s one tough cookie of a handset. Not only does it have a massive 4.3″ Super AMOLED display, but the handset is extremely thin, measuring just 7.1mm.
To help the RAZR remain in pristine condition it’s made with KEVLAR fibre and Corning Gorilla Glass, which adds extra strength to the whole handset including the display. Add to the mix a 1.2GHz dual core processor, an 8MP camera and 1080p recording capabilities and the Motorola RAZR proves that it means business.
A handset as good as the Motorola RAZR deserves the best accessories to show off its features. Here’s three of our favourites which will be hitting the shelves soon:
1. Otterbox Commuter Series for Motorola RAZR
Otterbox are well known for their protective cases and the Commuter series case for the RAZR is no exception. Combining style and protection this Motorola RAZR cover incorporates elements of the Otterbox Defender Series and elements of the Impact series, giving you the best of both worlds.
The rugged Defender elements, teamed with the silicone skin of the Impact Series help to create a usable and sleek cover which is professional enough for business and casual enough for play. The cover has cut outs complete with plugs for all the ports, in order to ensure your handset remains fully functioning at all times, yet is still protected when not in use.
Also included with the Otterbox Commuter is a clear plastic screen protector, which teamed with the Gorilla Glass of the handset gives your display complete protection from bumps, scrapes and scratches.
The Otterbox Defender is one of the best Motorola RAZR covers for protection, without taking away the style of the handset.

It comes complete with a HD station for your phone, a wireless keyboard, mouse and HDMI cable. All of the products are official Motorola products, so you can guarantee high quality and perfect compatibility.
Combing all of these Motorola RAZR accessories and a webtop application on the handset turns your RAZR into a netbook, complete with Firebox browser and Flash compatibility. This means you can complete your work anywhere at any time; whether you’re in the comfort of your own home or on the train.

3. Motorola Smart Controller for the RAZR
The final item in our list is the Motorola Smart Controller for the RAZR which lets you wirelessly control your Motorola RAZR from across the room when it’s docked. Again this is an official Motorola product so the highest quality and compatibility is assured – it’s a great product to use with the Work and Play Kit.
Smart by name, smart by nature, the Smart Controller has a touchpad and four buttons which match those on the handset. This means you have full control of your phone and it’s features from pinching and zooming to going to the home screen and taking calls.
The Smart Controller also has a built in microphone and speaker, meaning you can take calls through the controller without touching your phone. Simply flip it over and place it to your ear like a regular handset – pretty clever!
A great and unique accessory for the RAZR, the Smart Controller takes usability to whole new levels.
The latest arrival to the Xperia family, is the hyperactive type who can’t sit still.
The Sony Xperia Active sim free is billed as “A tough smartphone for an active life”; with this description you’d expect features that you normally wouldn’t get on your everyday smartphone, and the Xperia Active doesn’t dissapoint. So what makes this phone right for the adrenaline junkies and thrill seekers among us?
The first thing youll notice with the handset is that it’s a little bit thicker than most smart phones on the market, but there is method to the madness, with the extra thickness comes extra protection against the elements and the accident prone. The Xperia Active is both dust and water resistant. The water resistance is especially cool (just look at the video underneath). The other key feature the handset boasts is something called “Wet-finger tracking”. This basicly means that you can now send that text in the Great British weather and answer the obligatory telephone call half way through your shower.
Along with these cool features the Xperia Active also boasts other features you’ve come to expect from an Xperia phone. These include the Bravia mobile display engine, DNLA connectivity for outputing your phomes content to a DNLA enabled device, HD video recording, 512MB RAM, 5 megapixel camera and a 3″ backlit LED screen.
Not only can the Xperia Active be a companion to your thrilling leisure life it can also become a mini personal trainer. Through the ANT+ compatibility the Xperia Active can monitor and record your vitals as you workout by communicating with a compliant pulse band or strap. This not only means you can keep track of your fitness but also share it with the world through the handset.
If the sim free Xperia Active sounds like the phone to keep up with your white knuckle life you might want to grab some Xperia Active accessories as well or maybe even an Xperia Active case for those times you come down from the mountain or come up for air.
It seems that there’s more Beats Audio inspired handsets headed our way, following the announcement of the Sim Free HTC Sensation XL. Boasting the title XL makes it sound really extreme and epic and from the looks of it it’s going to be pretty epic….
A 4.7″ screen, a 1.5GHz processor, 9.9mm thick, a 8MP camera plus Beats Audio built-in.. the HTC Sensation XL Sim Free really does mean business. Even better the handset comes complete with a pair of Beats by Dre Solo headphones so you can listen to your music in amazing quality on the go.
Sim Free HTC Sensation XL
Offering a huge bright screen, the Sensation XL makes surfing the web and using apps a dream. Movement is liquid smooth and super fast thanks to the 1.5GHz processor, which has no problem handling multiple apps and running anything you throw at it.
The 8MP camera also offers HD recording and instant capture, so you never have to miss a moment. However, to improve your recordings the unlocked HTC Sensation XL has two microphones built-in which not only allow you to record surround sound, but also cancel out unwanted background noise. So if you’re a Spielberg in the making this handset is a great starting point.
Couple this with the superb quality of Beats Audio and you’ve got the perfect streaming machine in the palm of your hand.
We’re going to be selling the handset for £499.95 and it’ll be available from the 25th October – so don’t forget to pick up your HTC Sensation accessories early so you can protect it from the second it comes out the box!
