Griffin Elan Passport Wallet

RH Numbers
RH Recommended Medal

Griffin makes a ridiculously wide range of iPhone cases, but I like folding wallet cases so decided to opt for their Elan Passport Wallet. When you open the case the left-hand flap includes slots for holding business cards and a little pocket for scraps of paper - or, you know, something for the weekend. There are cutouts for both cameras and the wallet is finished off with chrome trim on the front flap to provide a little extra protection. It’s available in a nice smart black, or rather lurid platinum with a flowery interior pattern.

Griffin Prophetik Folio

RH Numbers

This designer wallet comes with a designer price tag – at 50 quid it’s the most expensive iPhone case I’ve ever seen. It is rather nice, though. The Folio is the first product in a new range that Griffin has produced in partnership with trendy Tennesse-based design house, Prophetik. The case is available in black or brown and is hand-stitched out of eco-conscious "reclaimed" leather that will soften with age to give you that cosy lived-in feel. It’s also got little pockets for business cards or credit cards.

Really?? A phone/wallet is a good idea? I enjoy carrying my wallet next to my face when talking on the phone. It really helps maximise the efficiency of little scrotes that want to steal my wallet or phone - now they don't have to make a choice!

Incipio

I have an Rubber Johnie Incipio case and after a few weeks its as loose as a wizards sleeve.

Also it catches on my pocket when I try to stuff it in and pull it out repeatedly.

Yes, And....

This round-up was also prompted by the little matter of 'antennagate'....

If Apple was forced to give millions of cases away for free then most iPhone users will probably consider a case an essential item - which is not the case for most other types of 'phone.

Hmm

I can't believe El Reg still isn't invited to the Apple WWDC after reviews like this? :)

Let me guess...

next weeks article - "Top.. Ten.. Essential.. Reasons.. Why you must buy an iPhone soon?"

With the obscene amount of iCoverage of late, it seems like someone is trying too hard to get back on His christmas card list.
