A Guide to Choosing Your Next Gel Skin

Thursday, January 13th, 2011

Gel Skins are fast becoming the most popular style of phone case available. They’re relatively inexpensive, can withstand more than a traditional leather case and are perfectly suited to larger, touch screen smartphones.

There are a number of different styles of Gel Skin available – everything from softer, flexible phone covers, through to adhesive skins that protect against scratches.

Here are a few of our most popular types of Gel Skin:

FlexiShield Skins

FlexiShields are our best selling gel skin. They’re made from a tough, flexible gel that covers the back and sides of your phone, leaving the screen (and any keyboards) fully accessible. They’re much stronger than a silicone case and far tougher than a crystal case.

If you also want protection for the screen, then you’ll need the FlexiShield Plus as these also include a screen protector.

Case Mate Covers

Case Mate produce a range of covers – everything from hard polycarbonate through to soft and flexible Gel Skins. Their most popular case is currently the Barely There hard cover, but their new range of Case Mate Gelli skins are catching up fast.

Case Mate Gelli for Galaxy Tab

The Case Mate Gelli is made from a similar material to the FlexiShields, but comes in a range of bright and attractive colours.  Gelli covers are available for a range of phones, including iPhone 4, HTC Desire and the Nokia N8, as well as the iPad and Galaxy Tab.

GelaSkins

Although the name suggests that these are a Gel Skin, they’re not quite. They’re actually a vinyl sticker that covers your phone and protects it against scratches and scuffs rather than knocks and drops. They add very little to your phone in the way of bulk as they’re exceptionally thin – so thin that you can actually use them in conjunction with most other mobile phone cases!

GelaSkins come in a variety of designs and are available for phones, MP3 players, netbooks and iPads.

With so many people now having the iPhone they no longer stand out as much as they used to.  To make your iPhone a little bit different, there are a number of iPhone cases and iPhone covers that you can get to brighten the phone up, but if you don’t want the extra bulk that is normally associated with a case?

The answer – GelaSkins.

What are GelaSkins?

GelaSkins are very thin protective covers that are made specifically for your iPhone.  They are made from a strong vinyl that can be removed from your phone without leaving any messy residue behind and are currently for the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS.

The artwork for the GelaSkins comes from over 100 artists including contemporary designs by Keith Haring and Nanami Cowdroy as well as some of the more traditional works by Van Gogh and Monet. As well as making your iPhone look good, GelaSkins protect your phone. They cover all of the back of your phone and will stop it from getting scuffed and scratched during everyday use. (more…)
