The Four Things Your Blackberry Curve 8530 Leather Case Needs To Have

By Meg Jones

So you've got your brand new Verizon Wireless Blackberry Curve 8530, now how to do you choose from all the screen protectors, holsters, leather cases, silicone cases, etc.? Well tackling that question will make this blog the size of a phone book (do they make those anymore?), so today let's just cover the very important leather case. You can find cheaply priced leather cases that can be good, maybe some higher priced ones that are a little better, and then you can shell out a good chunk of change for a brand name case, but other than the looks they are made of the same materials and do the same job. Whatever reason you have for purchasing a leather case, if stick to the suggestions we give below, you should end up with a dependable, good-looking case that will do a good job protecting your phone.



1.) Functionality- In terms of a leather case, functionality comes down to how well the case works with your Blackberry Curve. For obvious reasons you don't want a bulky or heavy, if for nothing more than sheer comfort. You also want to be sure your leather case has a magnetic flap or something similar that will keep the phone securely inside when you are moving around. At the same time, the flap should not make it difficult for your to pull out your phone when you need to. When using a holster type leather case with a clip, be sure it can swivel back and forth so it won't break when you sit or stand.

2.) Durability- The better the craftsmanship, the longer the case will last, simple as that. Most leather cases will be stitched together. Just look for tight stitching threads and a clean cut along the leather. How long will it last after that is a matter of time of course.

3.)Warranty- Be sure to read the retailer's warranty information, every website should have some form of warranty and return policy for replacing defective items. A good warranty should be between 6-12 months.

4.)Protection- Watch out for cases made of lower quality materials, they could easily do more harm than good to your phone since it will sit in the leather case most of the time. As far as the actual material inside the phone, it should be a soft suede or nylon material to help keep the device cool. The outside should be well-constructed and to protect the screen most of all.



As long as you cover the attributes mentioned above when selecting your Verizon Wireless Blackberry Curve 8530 Leather Case, you should be able to avoid having your phone look prematurely aged. It will also keep you from having to repurchase the same item over and over again or need to search for another case that suits you.
