If you’ve got yourself a powerful smart phone such as the Nokia E71<\/a>, chances are that you’re going to be using it heavily during your working day for appointments, calls and emails. \u00a0It’s unlikely though that come 5.30 you’re going to put the phone away until you’re back in work. What’s more likely is that the phone becomes the centre of your social and home life and is something that you simply can’t leave alone for any great periods of time.<\/p>\n

With the phone working so hard to keep you in touch with the world and your life in order, you’re going to need a way to keep your phone safe and protected. \u00a0Mobile Phone Cases<\/a> come in all shapes and sizes – from Premium Leather Cases<\/a> made from the finest quality leather, through to the everyday leather<\/a>, plastic<\/a> and silicone cases<\/a>. \u00a0With such a great range available finding a case to match your needs shouldn’t be too much of a problem, but often these cases tend to cover up our phones, taking away the feeling of pleasure we get by showing off our phone to our friends and family!<\/p>\n

Case manufacturers know how much we love to show things off, and have come up with a range of Skins, Crystal Cases, Silicone Cases and InvisibleShields<\/a>, all offering great protection for our mobile phones, without covering up any of the phones design features, branding or reducing its functionality.<\/p>\n

Nokia E71 FlexiShield Skin<\/p><\/div>\n

Nokia E71 FlexiShield<\/strong><\/p>\n

The FlexiShield case for the Nokia E71<\/a> is one of the latest cases that protects and shows of f your phone. \u00a0It’s made from a tough gel that makes it flexible like a traditional silicone case, but a lot stronger and tougher than a crystal case. The first thing you’ll notice when you fit the Flexishield to your E71 is how neatly it fits your phone. Unlike some silicone cases that can become loose or ‘baggy’ over time, the FlexiShield is a snug fit to your phone. \u00a0There are cut outs for the Camera, speaker, headphone socket, data cable, charger & memory card. The only slight negative is that it does cover the volume keys and power switch, so turning your phone off or adjusting the volume will mean having to remove your phone from the case. \u00a0Removing the covers from the memory card slot and data cable port is also a little tricky, but not impossible.<\/p>\n

Where the Flexishield stands out from its rival \u2018Plain Jane\u2019 styled Crystal Cases and Skins is with a unique diamond pattern design found on the rear of the case. It adds personality as well as helping to hide any scratches that might form on the back of the case over time.<\/p>\n

\"E71<\/a>

The screen isn’t covered, so if you are worried about damaging your screen you’ll need to use an E71 screen protector. \u00a0You can buy these separately, or you can buy a Nokia E71 FlexiShield Plus<\/a> which includes a screen protector and saves you a few pounds too.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n

While the FlexiShield isn’t as smart looking as some of the designer PDair<\/a> or Krusell Leather Cases<\/a>, it does what it’s supposed to do \u00a0– remain inconspicuous and protect the phone. If you don’t fancy this as your main case, or want something a little more fashion concious for when you’re at work, then I’d suggest getting the FlexiShield for times where a more durable case is needed \u00a0such as sports activities or social events.<\/p>\n\n\n
