News, reviews and articles about cases and covers for phones, tablets and more.
There are plenty of waterproof iPhone cases on the market, there’s no doubt about that. One thing most of the cases have in common is that the phone is completely surrounded on all sides by the casing and the screen of the phone is covered with a plastic, touch sensitive film. The downside to this […]

It has got to be a challenge for accessory manufacturers to keep up with the ever-changing world of personal technology. Now, I am sure it is a very profitable game of cat & mouse, but 99% of the form-fitted cases become 100% obsolete as quickly as the smart devices they are protecting do. The folks

The thing I most hear people say about the iPad mini is that they can just throw it in their pocket or bag and take it everywhere. With a WiFi-only mini, you’ll probably find yourself somewhere where you’re limited by a weak WiFi signal. If you had the LINKBOOK case for iPad mini from Absolute

It’s good to be environmentally conscious. We have been granted stewardship of this planet, and it’s the only one we’ve got. One way to preserve our resources is by taking the “one person’s trash is another’s treasure” approach, like Alchemy Goods does. Taking their cue from the alchemists of old who sought to turn lead

EDC, or everyday carry, has become quite popular, and many companies are offering products to help you organize your EDC items more efficiently. Many of these products are military-inspired “tactical” style: rugged and functional, made from heavy-duty Cordura, and with lots of zippers and webbing. But Tusked Crescent wanted a their EDC products to have

There are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of iPhone 5 cases on the market today. They range from minimalist bumpers to full-blown, hard-core, destruction-proof cases. But what happens when you want something a little different, not a bumper, not a case, something minimalistic with a touch of style? The Bezl from Bezldesign may be the

I’ve always loved those little decorated sugar skulls that are used in the celebration of the Day of the Dead. This case from Joshua Harker uses that iconic image in an iPhone case for iPhone 4/4S or iPhone 5. The Crania Revolutis case is a bumper-style case with the decorative skull added to the back.

For some reason I can never find a case for my iPhone 5 that I truly like. The truth is, the iPhone 5 feels great in the hand, and most cases spoil the smooth, sleek design. The Mod-3 Radius case (provided by BiteMyApple.co) protects the corners with a bare minimum of bulk. Here’s a closer look.

Having become a recent convert to the iPhone 5, I am always looking for ways to accentuate and protect my investment. I have gone the extreme route with full waterproof and shockproof covers, but I have come to realize that I may not need that much protection. So, after reviewing another aluminum iPhone 5 bumper

As I have stated before in a previous post, I am a usability guy. I would rather have a vanilla looking product that works well, rather than some razzle dazzle, all looks, nonfunctional product any day.

During the 90’s, when cell phones were becoming all the rage, the belt clip for phones became a status symbol of sorts. Since phones started out so large that they wouldn’t fit in a pocket, clipping them to a belt (or hiding them in a fanny pack) was an acceptable way to transport them. Even

Last November, I told you about an indiegogo project for the TaskOne iPhone case. The project surpassed their funding goal of $32,000 and they are now taking orders.
