Wow, the Christmas elves at Sena have been busy creating some very nice leather cases for the iPhone and iPod Touch. They sent me a nice selection to check out and I thought I’d do a quickie review of them for everyone that might be doing some last minute Christmas shopping.
Walletbook
This book style snap case holds your iPhone and can do double duty as a minimalist wallet. It’s available in 13 different colors which include 4 with a crocodile embossed look.
The wallet portion of the case has 2 card slots (one has a plastic see-thru window) with another slot behind them to hold folded currency.
This is a nicely made case, but isn’t one that I would pick for myself. It seems more like a case for a PDA instead of a phone. I would find it really inconvenient to unsnap the cover in order to access the iPhone to answer a call. I also think it would be uncomfortable to hold while talking. I suppose if you’re a Bluetooth headset user, that this would be a non issue.
Price $52.00
Sarach Leather Skin
This is one of my favorites because it doesn’t add a lot of bulk to the iPhone and doesn’t hinder usability.
The Sarach Leather Skin is available in 5 colors. Each one has the same type of saddle stitch that you will probably either love or hate. I love it 🙂 If you prefer this same case but with a protective flip cover (which is held closed with a magnet), that’s no problem, you just have to pay an additional $10.
Price $59.99 without flip cover, $69.99 with a cover
Corsa
If you don’t want a play-through case, but just something to protect your iPhone or iPod touch during transport, then the Corsa is a good choice.
It’s basically a two-toned leather sheath that has a unique pull strap that is used to eject the device when you need to use it. Just pull the strap and it lifts the iPhone out of the case.
Price $39.99
Laterale
The Laterale looks a little retro to me. It has a soft padded round design with a convenient cutout that you can use to push the iPhone up for easy retrieval. The interior is lined in soft velvet to protect your phone.
On the back is a leather covered spring clip that you can use to wear this case on your belt.
The Laterale is available in 7 color styles with 3 having a crocodile embossed texture.
Price $39.99
Kutu
The Kutu is similar to the Corsa. It’s a rigid leather sleeve that is reminiscent of an instrument case. It’s available in 3 colors and has a soft lining.
Like the Corsa, it has a pull tab device lifting feature. There’s also a card slot built into the back of the sleeve.
Price $44.95
All of these cases are made very well. I was unable to find any defects in the material or workmanship. In my opinion Sena Cases are a very good alternative to Vaja Cases when it comes to a wide variety of styles and colors, for an affordable price.

My all-time favorite cases are Vaja, and I think I learned about them here a VERY long time ago. I had a Sena case for my Clie TH-55, and was very nice, and actually lasted longer then on older Vaja case for my Palm V.
They only offered a pouch for the G1, though. Hopefully they will have a case for whatever my next Android phone is.
@Bryan: Agree with you. I always stick with Vaja for fancy cases.
same here i agree woth both of you!! we think alike!!!! but these do look nice and fancy but still.
I looked at the Sena cases, having owned two before (Palm Tungsten T3 and Centro). However, I didn’t quite like the idea of having magnets too close to the iPhone 3GS with its magnetometer… So I passed and ordered the Niteize Leather Clipcase (http://www.niteize.com/productdetail.php?category_id=27&product_id=178) which has elastic ends (to accomodate my GearX carbon fibre iPhone case) and a velcro flap.
I like the desgin of the Sena cases personally and among listed here red and organe are my favorite…However the price is still high, they can think of lowering it a little..
