Fenix rolls out HandHold and CrossWay cases for iPhones

fenixThe market for pre-loved electronics these days seem to be a growing one, and that would mean more and more people are taking care of their existing smartphones and tablets so that there is a higher resale value just in case they want to dispose of it in the secondary market. Having said that, smartphone and tablet accessories do seem to be a pretty popular venture too, and the folks over at Fenix have introduced two more cases for the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5s, and they are known as the HandHold and CrossWay. These will boast of a unique design and protective exterior that will work alongside the ability to store your most important items – where among them include a license, cash or credit card, making them a must-have accessory.

Chris Michaud, CEO of Felix, said, “We want you to have fun, and the HandHold and CrossWay cases can help you do that. They’re durable, tough, and a great alternative to lugging around a separate wallet or purse. We also want you to be bold, different, and express yourself with your accessories. Aside from their considerable cool factor- these cases are made from the same material as bullet-proof glass so you know they’re tough.”

These iPhone cases from Fenix were developed from high-strength engineering thermoplastic, where the HandHold safeguards your smartphone against every day bumps and bruises. Both the “fingers” and “thumb” wraps are not there just for aesthetic purposes only, but rather, they would also provide you with enough space to slide a credit card, cash, or license under the case for safe-keeping. It will arrive in half a dozen color combinations, namely Black/Red, Black/Orange, Black/Yellow, White/Red, White/Blue, and White/Pink, retailing for $29.99 a pop.

As for the CrossWay, it is touted to be one of the world’s thinnest wallet cases, bringing together the world of fashion alongside the option to stash away key necessities like a little bit of cash, a credit card or license. You can pick up the CrossWay in Black/Red, Black/Gray, White/Gray, or White/Pink colors for $29.99 each.

The Booq Complete Protection Kit would offer an all-encompassing solution for their iPhone devices, where it is composed of four different parts. There is a tempered glass screen protector, an ultra-thin snap case, a microfiber cleaning cloth, and a couple of adhesive home button covers.

Bike2Power Bravo announced, your iPhone will be safer than ever before

bike2powerFor the average iPhone owner, there seems to be one single accessory that they truly need to get right from the get go, which is a case of some sort. Well, these cases or sleeves tend to be more stylish than anything else, but do they offer a better level of protection, or at least up to the level expected by the iPhone owner? Perhaps it is time you took a look at other models, such as the Bike2Power’s Bravo that has been described to be a fully waterproof and shockproof aluminum case for the iPhone 5. Not only does your iPhone 5 receive the relevant amount of protection, it also has more flair and style to deliver protection against the likes of water, dust, dirt, mud, snow and impact all the time.

No longer do you need to keep the iPhone’s sleek look and feel hidden behind cheap plastic cases or to fall back on old-style aluminum bumpers that are basically useless against water. The Bravo Case will be able to go swimming with you literally, although there really isn’t any reason to do so, as it is waterproof down to 6 feet, with the ability to be able to withstand the impact of a free fall from over six feet on a hard concrete floor – even at multiple angles. Despite such capability, it measures a mere 5.54″ x 2.85″ x 0.49″, clearly making it is one of the slimmest waterproof iPhone 5 cases that are available in the market.

You will not find yourself using a gimped iPhone 5 with the Bravo case, since in spite of the heavy protection offered, the entire slew of features found on the iPhone 5 remain accessible. What makes the Bravo case different from other waterproof phone cases? It will have the screen protector adhered onto the handset itself, which means the chances of having air bubbles trapped between the screen protector and the touchscreen display will be minimized. The screen protector itself will be pressed against an O-ring on the front cover so that it offers enough rigidity to seal the case against water. The asking price for the Bravo case is $99.95 a pop, as it comes in silver and black anodized aluminum.

Cordli cases are made for the iPhone 4/4S and 5 and have deep grooves at the back where you’re supposed to push the wire in. It effectively shortens your headphone wires so you won’t have to twist them around your device when you’re using them to deal with the extra length.

The Cordli was designed by Aki Attawia. It’s up for funding on Kickstarter through October 9th, where a minimum pledge of $15(USD) will get you one of your very own.

Prong PocketPlug is an iPhone Case and Charger in One

The Prong PocketPlug case makes charging your iPhone a little more convenient by doing away with the wires. It’s bulkier than your typical phone case, but that’s because it’s got a phone charger built into it.

Prong Charger

Just slip your phone into the case and flip out the swiveling prongs on the back of the case. Plug it into an outlet, and voila! Your phone’s charging. It comes especially handy when you’re traveling, because you won’t have to pack any additional cables, wires, or chargers anymore.

You won’t be able to use the phone while it’s charging, since it’ll be positioned against the wall. So in case you want to use it while it’s juicing up, just bring a cable because the Prong PocketPlug has a micro USB port on the side for corded charging.

The PocketPlug is available for the iPhone 4/4S and the iPhone 5 for $59.95 and $69.95 (USD), respectively.

polycarbonate-walletIt is not every single day that we come across an iPhone case that is different from the rest, and this particular puppy, the $34.95 iPhone 5 Polycarbonate Wallet happens to not only provide your iPhone 5 with an adequate amount of protection against knocks, scratches, and even soften the blow should your sweaty palms happen to let it slip from your grip, but it also comes with the added storage space for you to stash away some cash, credit cards, and even identification documents.

Sporting a hinged back, the case will open up for you to put away your earthly “treasures”, and would come in handy just in case of an emergency, especially when your wallet is stolen and all you have left is your iPhone 5. Not only that, the compartment itself will snap shut for secure, hidden storage, and will come with an integrated mirror. It is made out of hard shell polycarbonate which offers a decent level of impact resistance and a rubberized coating which will pave the way for a confident grip.

    GearZap.com - Great online accessories shop - we reviewed a couple of their offerings

    We would like to introduce an online gadget store, GearZap.com, from the UK that sells various kinds of smartphone and computer accessories. They were nice enough to send us 2 products as samples: a 13 inch MacBook retina sleeve and an iPhone hard case. We put to these to use and would like to share our thoughts.

    GearZap.com can deliver outside of the UK (delivery within European countries is from £2.99; outside the European Union is from £3.50).

    Feedback on GearZap.com that we got from friends of ours was that they are professional, prompt and very easy to work with. Our own experience was the same. And with the variety of accessories that they offer for sale, we would recommended taking a look at GearZap.com if you need some accessories.

    – 13 Inch MacBook case

    Model: LA robe MacBook Air

    Color: black/wasabi

    Material: low resilience urethane

    Review: The body is only 5mm thin and fits my 13 inch MacBook Retina very well. It feels very light and fits compact bags or bag compartments very well. I have a side compartment inside of my bag that this sleeve fits into well.

    The sleeve gives a bit of a memory foam cushion feel – not too much to be bulky but just enough to give me some confidence that its protecting the goods.

    Overall, I love it and won’t be changing back.

    – iPhone 5 case

    Model: Sparkles Diamante Hard Case for iPhone 5

    Color: purple

    Review: Yoriko tried it on her iPhone 5 and really liked it. It is a sparkling case, which in Japan, has a good chance of being a hit. Among Japanese girls, it’s popular to “Decoru” which means decorating your belongings, such as your mobile phone with a lot of small bits and bangles made from crystal, glass and other shiny, glittery material. So the look and feel is good for female users. The one negative was that once you put the case on your smart phone, it was hard to take it off. For most people, this is not a problem, but if you use your phone in an armband or something similar during exercise, this would be a drawback.
