I’m always looking for good accessories to make sure my iPhone is protected – and I’ve lost track of the amount I’ve been through including:
- Rubber surround cases
- Leather flip-out cases
- Screen protectors
- Two-piece clip together plastic cases
However, it was largely a poorly-performing area of accessories as far as I was concerned, until I came across what I thought was the ideal type of cases – the Vertical Leather slip case. This genre of case works ideally for me, since I need the iPhone out of it’s case (say to dock in the official Apple charger mount) as much as in it. Now, most leather slip cases don’t afford any protection for the top of the phone (since that is where it ejects), but, overall a good compromise.
Fortunately, I think I’ve found a good performer in this genre of case, in the Beyzacases ‘Slimline Vertical Leather Case’, being retailed by MobileFun.
There actually isn’t that much to say on the case, other than to summarise that it does what it says on the tin – but, I’ll try and give you the highlights:
- Made from real leather
- Snug fit for iPhone 3G/3GS so it won’t fall out
- Cut-out at bottom so charger can still be plugged in, and, phone can be ejected with finger
- Refined styling
- Good protection for all but top of phone!
Actually MobileFun do a range of Beyzacases that you can see here. However, the case I am using is this one here.
In summary, great quality, and a reasonable price – you can get one here.

He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
