Blackberry’s back! (well kind of) Celebrate with a new case.

Thursday, October 13th, 2011

We know that Blackberry have been down for a few days and that users haven’t been too happy about their loss of service.  Jokes have been circling the Twittersphere about ‘Blackberry crumbles’ and ‘What did one Blackberry user say to another? Nothing’, but thankfully for Blackberry users the services seem to be returning to normal today.

What better way to celebrate than by getting a brand spanking new Blackberry case!  Here’s a few of our favourites.

Otterbox Defender for Blackberry Bold 9780

The first case is for the Blackberry Bold 9780 and is from the Otterbox range.  What’s great about Otterbox cases is that they provide three layers of protection: a thin thermal-formed cover for the screen and keys; a polycarbonate shell to protect the handset and a final silicone skin which absorbs shocks.

When combined this leads to the ultimate in protection , all whilst the Blackberry Bold 9780 case aims to remain as sleek and stylish as possible.

Dicota Hard Cover for Blackberry Curve 8520

The next case is for the popular Blackberry Curve 8520.  When the handset first arrived it was used primarily by business men but since then the BBM features have attracted a lot of teenagers to the handset.  The Dicota Blackberry Curve 8520 case is perfect for those teens who want a stylish yet sophisticated case.

Made from an impact resistant hard plastic, the Dicota hard cover snaps onto the back of you Blackberry and offers slim protection and a perfect fit.

One of the most fashionable blackberry curves cases, it offers protection from scratches and scrapes whilst giving you access to all the ports and features of the handset.  Even better the case offers extra grip to the handset to help you avoid those butterfingers moments.

Samsonite Mobile Phone Holster

Samsonite are well known for their high quality luggage so when purchasing a Samsonite Blackberry Torch case you know that you’re getting a high quality product even without the ten year guarantee!

The case is made from genuine leather to add style and protection and it’s perfect for both work and socialising.   This Samsonite mobile phone holster will fit a lot of different phone models due to it’s size – Krusell also do a similar style case.

Being a holster style cover means that every inch of your handset is protected but in order to use the features and ports of your handset it must be removed from the case.

Choosing your Perfect BlackBerry Cover

Monday, January 17th, 2011

With most BlackBerry devices being similar shapes and sizes, most of them will use the same range of BlackBerry Covers and Cases – with the exception of BlackBerry Gel Skins which will all be phone dependent.

There are currently more than 140 BlackBerry Covers to choose from, so with so many to choose from I thought I’d take a look at some of the different styles of BlackBerry cover to help you make deciding on your next one a bit easier.

BlackBerry Pouch

I’ve found that the most practical BlackBerry cover is a straight forward carry pouch. Quite often you’ll want to be able to send out a quick message from your phone and pulling it out of a pouch is so much easier than undoing press studs or folding flaps out of the way.

If you opt for a genuine BlackBerry Carry Case, you’ll get the built in magnet that puts your device to sleep and changes the profile when you insert your phone.

BlackBerry Case

If you don’t want a pouch, then you’ve got two choices, a book style case or a flip case. Both are well suited to BlackBerry devices and give off a smart, professional appearance.

Book style cases are generally hinged on the left – this does mean that they do sometimes slow down your typing speeds and can slow you down. Flip cases are normally hinged at the top so that the cover stays out of your way while you’re using the phone – the only slight downside to this is that the flip can sometimes get in the way of your camera lens.

BlackBerry Skin

Gel skins are a great way to cover your BlackBerry and protect it from knocks and bumps. They cover all of the back and sides of your device, leaving the screen and keypad accessible.

Most Gel skins have a soft rubbery feel that adds a non slip coating to your phone, reducing the chances of it slipping out of your hand. This type of case will be specific to your model of BlackBerry so check to make sure you’re ordering for the right phone.

BlackBerry Cover

Hard, clip on covers are another popular way to keep your phone looking like new, without the extra bulk that you get with some traditional fabric cases. This kind of cover will protect the corners and back of your BlackBerry from dents and scratches when you drop it, but don’t protect the screen, so you may also want to get yourself a BlackBerry Screen Protector.

Vaja Cases now in stock at Mobile Fun

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

If you’re after a case that’s a little bit special and stands out from the crowd there are a number of premium brands you could go for – Noreve, Piel Frama and Knomo are just a few of them, but what if you wanted something really special?

Well, we’re pleased to announce that our range of Vaja Cases have now arrived and are available to order for the Apple iPhone, BlackBerry Bold 9700, BlackBerry Curve 8900 and BlackBerry Storm2.

Vaja who?

Vaja are a case manufacturer based in South America. Their cases are all of an exceptionally high standard and not like any case you’ll have seen before.

They’re available in a number of colours and styles – I’ve listed some of my favourites below to give you an idea of what’s available.

Vaja Dockable iPhone Case

It looks retro with the combination of tan and beige leather, but this is a great slim fitting case for the iPhone and iPhone 3G. It has a magnetic catch built in that keeps it securely closed, as well as a kickstand on the rear that’s perfect for propping your phone up to watch videos and browse the internet.

What’s even better is that the case works with most iPhone docks, meaning you won’t have to remove your phone every time you want to sync it with your PC or Mac.

Vaja Classic Retro Dockable Case for Apple iPhone 3G & 3GS

Vaja Black & Red Limited Edition Case for BlackBerry Storm 2

The Limited Edition Vaja cases have a real sporty look to them. They’re made from textured black and red leather, with a brushed chrome logo on the outside of the flip. It provides access to all the ports and buttons on the Storm2. It also has a built in ‘sleep magnet’ that puts your phone to sleep when the cover is closed.

Vaja ivolution Stripes2 for Apple iPhone 3G & 3GS – Black

The ivolution Stripes case is a slim, form fitting flip case that’s all black with 3 coloured stripes across the outer flap. Unlike the Retro case above, the flap is bottom hung and your iPhone is held in place using a tension system instead of a stitched pocket to provide easier access to your phone. All of the screen is accessible, as are the volume controls, silent switch and headphone socket. To close the flap, just clip the end of the flap over the top of your phone.

Top BlackBerry Curve 8520 Accessories

Friday, August 7th, 2009

The BlackBerry Curve 8520 might be a brand new BlackBerry handset, but that doesn’t mean that there aren’t any accessories available for it. The 8520 Curve is the replacement for the 8300 Curve which was a great handset that packed a lot of features into a pretty small design.  The 8520 combines the features from the 8300, 8310 and 8320 into one device and as with all BlackBerry’s its great for email and messaging. The BlackBerry 8520 Curve weighs less and is slightly smaller then the 8310 Curve and has WiFi and GPS built in. It’s also the first BlackBerry handset to feature a trackpad in place of the usual trackball.

BlackBerry have kept the business users features and have also put more of a media and entertainment spin on the new 8520 Curve, so to make the most of the phone there are a few accessories that you should invest in – especially if you’ve upgraded from the 8310 as the cases & chargers for the 8520 are different.

To help you make the right choice in deciding on accessories for your new smart phone, we’ve compiled our list of top 10 accessories for the BlackBerry Curve 8520.

1. BlackBerry 8520 Curve Swivel holster

The BlackBerry 8520 is a stylish looking phone that needs a stylish case to go with it – especially as you don’t get one in the box with the phone. This BlackBerry 8520 Curve Swivel holster is made from premium lambskin leather and has a rotating belt clip on the rear. It has a proximity sensor that can automatically change the alert tones on your 8520 Curve when ever it’s inserted or removed from the case.
