Android Phone Cover: Love It or Leave It?

GeekSugar — Wed, 14 Oct 2009 15:44:55 -0700

It seems like I've covered an exhaustive amount of iPhone cases from handcrafted to high-tech. But today I stumbled upon this cute case made specifically for Google Android phones.

The case is designed for a T-Mobile G1 phone, but can be custom-ordered for any Android phone. It's lined in felt to prevent scratches, and of course features a green Android robot. I'm a fan of geeky handmade goodies - and now Android users can get in on the action. What do you think?

Bling-a-Ding-Ding: High Class Metallic HTC Touch HD Cases

GeekSugar — Mon, 13 Jul 2009 09:04:18 -0700

I know I talk a ton of game about the iPhone around here, but don't think for a second that I don't have my eye out for knockout accessories for other types of cell phones. Take these high fallutin' HTC Touch HD Metallic Cases ($35) that look pretty expensive but are totally pocketbook friendly.

Engraved and available in two styles and colors (silver and titanium, naturally), these cases protect your hard-working HTC from scratches and bruises. Plus, the included mirrored screen protector turns your cell into a nice little compact for you to use on-the-go. Functional and fabulous - that's my kind of gadget.

Looking for a subtle and sweet way to showcase your Apple love without having to pin a colorful logo on your shirt or sleeve? Double or triple your dose of apples each day by covering your iPod, iPhone, or laptop with a fresh and fruity printed case or tote.

This Little Apple Sunshine Pouch ($8) wasn't designed specifically for gizmos, but it would make a fetching combined iPod, iPhone, and lip gloss pouch. Check out some additional apple-inspired totes, cases and carriers in the widget below!

Kangaroom Media Bags Keep Your Gadgets Snuggled

Say you're not as depraved as I am - using pillowcases as laptop sleeves and whatnot. Say you like to use dedicated bags to keep your gadgets organized and orderly (more power to ya!) - then check out Kangaroom's totally practical (and as a bonus, adorable) Velvet Media Bags.

It's just $20 for a set of four, and each cute drawstring bag has the gadget it's intended for embroidered on the front - there's an MP3 player, a cell phone, a camera, and a larger one for cords (great for travel since my box technique won't work on the road).

Do You Use a Case For Your Cell Phone?

Megan Fox has a sexy little package - in her hand that is. She was spotted toting her black iPhone 3G the other day, even multitasking with her coffee thermos in the same hand as the phone (a balancing act I'm familiar with). The last time we checked in with her, not only did she have a first generation iPhone, but she put that one in a protective case.

Her black 3G, though, isn't getting the same treatment, and though I love the way my sleek phone feels sans case, if I'm walking around - and especially, juggling - I'm scared enough of dropping my phone that I put it in a case. However, pre-smartphone, I never used a case, but that was also when I spent way less moola on my cell phones.

What about you? Do you use a case with your cell phone?

GeekSugar — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 10:00:29 -0800

I've never really been a "pink" girl, but there's something about the impending holiday that softens me toward the hue. I guess it's just more romantic than obnoxious - so what better time to get a pink cell phone case than for Valentine's Day?

Sweetening the pot is Incipio, who's offering 30 percent off all of their pink cases - for iPhones, BlackBerrys, iPods, etc., - from now until Feb. 15. Just add the pink case to your cart to see the discount.

I've bought an Incipio case before and seen most of their colors in person, so I can attest to the shades looking great in real life. Yes, even the bubblegum pink.

Jonathan Adler Gadget Cases Make Needlepoint Modern

GeekSugar — Sat, 07 Feb 2009 10:14:57 -0800

I'm used to seeing designer Jonathan Adler's work on CasaSugar, but I was rewarded today when I browsed around his mod website to find accessories for the gadget queen in me. This Cell Phone Cozy and MP3 Case are $48 each - and I want them both.

The needlepoint cases are on the same kind of usual Adler level - thoroughly modern, but with an element (in this case, the needlepoint) that's totally vintage chic.

Mink Cell Phone Holder: Would You Use It?

GeekSugar — Fri, 06 Feb 2009 15:34:01 -0800

Do you wear fur? Does your cell phone? Because this Mink Cell Phone Holder is not understated in the least.

I searched for the word 'faux' in the description, but nada - this appears to be the real deal.

And proving that the recession has even hit Kimora Lee Simmons-types hard, the formerly live cell phone holder's price has been slashed from $240 to $96 (and it's a final sale, so be sure you want the fuzzy critter around your phone), which I personally would not.

Tell me, even if you're not antifur, would you be pro this?

Speck Shows the iPhone 3G Some Lovin'

GeekSugar — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 02:01:12 -0700

I just got my hands on Specks new lineup of cell phone cases and they're not only affordable and will keep your phone scratch free, but they are totally trendy too! Below you'll notice the BlackBerry Pearl Hard Shell Case ($25) that comes with a removable swivel holster and belt clip and protects your phone while maintaining its sleek design. Then there's the Hard Shell Case and Stand ($30) that comes in two pieces that snap together to protect your iPhone 3G and includes rubberized no-slip finger rails on the sides.

And last but not least (and one of my faves), the Pixel Skin ($25) for the iPhone 3G that allows you to access all your controls and ports, and it comes in seven hot colors!
