Your iPhone and iPod Touch Just Got a Little Classier

GeekSugar — Tue, 17 Nov 2009 11:10:24 -0800

Although you only get two options when choosing an iPhone (even less if you're picking up an iPod Touch), you can always express your individuality with a case. I've got plenty of options for you, but if you're looking for something with a little more sizzle, a little more class if you will, check out these slim-fitting Blink Cases ($20-$25).

These sleek and shiny cases hug the curves of your iPhone or iPod Touch without adding bulk and weight to your pocket. And even though they look like a million bucks, they don't cost a fortune. Coming in four different shades to match your sophisticated taste, Blink cases also come correct with a mirrored face plate so you can touch up your lip gloss or smooth out those perfectly placed waves in your hair. Oh, behave.

Even the most diligent gals have had a gadget slip out of their hand, or vibrate right off of the table as it rings - myself included! The Chilewich iPhone Case ($40) is made from sturdy woven polycarbonate.

The covers are from designer Sandy Chilewich, known for her signature basket-weave design. And, the case is designed so you don't have to remove it to connect it to a dock or charger.

An attractive and impact-resistant iPhone case? Sold.

It's been waaay too long since I've posted a hunka-burnin' techjoyment hottie, so I decided to spice up this week's matchup with a touch of testosterone. This guy is so hip with his iPhone, that he's even got a lime green colored case like Reese Witherspoon (although hers is the BlackBerry version). Know who it is? Scroll down to leave your answer!

Finally! An Absolutely Brilliant iPhone Case

I am beyond excited about this case that I just discovered on Chip Chick. I have long complained that although my iPhone has an excellent camera that takes great photos, it's useless in less-than-direct light. Now, finally, a solution.

The Beamer ($32) is a hard plastic case with a built-in light. The light is battery powered - so it won't drain your phone's batter - and stays on for 10 seconds at a time. It's perfect to use as a light for your phone's camera, or just as a flashlight.

I recently wrote about an app for the BlackBerry that turns the flash into a flashlight, and I have to admit, I was jealous that the iPhone would never have the same ability.

Yesterday at the Mulberry Store in London, England, stars came out to set sight on the British fashion brand's latest accessory line, which consists of laptop bags, sleeves, mini messengers, and iPhone/iPod Touch cases.

This nine-piece collection will feature bags with Mulberry's signature icons like the Bayswater for women and the Brynmore for men.

The items are available now from selected Mulberry stores, or you can wait until Dec. 1 when they'll be available online from the Apple store.

When the weather starts getting cooler, and you start paying attention to gift guide suggestions, then you know the holidays are quickly approaching! It's about that time of the year for me, when I can't help but want to buy things that are festive and get me into the holiday spirit. These new Solo FX Special Edition Cases ($35) from iSkin might not be green and red, but they are glitzy and certainly fall into the category of "essential holiday accessories." With colors like Ice (clear frosted), Onyx (translucent black), Cosmo (translucent pink) you can add a hint of color and shimmer to your iPhone, thanks to each case's subtle embossed pattern. I've already raved about the quality of iSkin's cases, so you can be sure that your phone will stay fully protected during hard impact falls with one of these beauties.

Not to be confused with our wide selection of wood products, these bamboo products may look like they're derived from the pine tree family, when in fact they are in an entirely different league of their own. Half part tech accessory, half part eco-chic, all of these products have one thing in common - they all feature some bamboo in their construction. Whether you're looking for something that's less plastic, and more natural, my little list will help you find some back-to-bamboo-basic items.

Felt Gameboy iPhone Case Is Retro Chic

GeekSugar — Fri, 02 Oct 2009 14:30:56 -0700

I'm always on the lookout for adorable iPhone cases - the more unique the better! I love to keep a supply on hand for some variety. I've covered my favorite handmade cases before and was bummed that the Gameboy case was sold out.

Luckily, I stumbled across this Gameboy iPhone case ($25). I'm partial to classic white, but the case comes in bright pink, blue, green, or yellow too. Cases are made from felt to prevent scratches, and I think they're an adorable throwback to a classic geeky gadget.

What do you think of these? Would you rock one?
