iPhone 3G Cases
A right case is very important as it is the defining factor that differentiates your iPhone 3G from the scores of other iPhones out there. It also provides protection to your beloved iPhone from those scratches, drops and shocks. Here we show you the best iPhone 3G cases you can find on the internet. Following the release of the iPhone 3G, many phone case manufacturers have come up with many case designs, ranging from the very cool to the outright weird. The prices of some of them are astronomically high while some of them are priced decently and offer the right mix of style and usability. We are not going to showcase the wacky ones – diamond encrusted or titanium alloy coated iPhone 3G cases. Just the best usable ones which are priced reasonably. All three of the cases we will present are priced below $50 which do make them a good option.
1. Case Mate Carbon Fiber iPhone 3G leather case
This Case Mate iPhone 3G case is very tough and stylish. The internal plastic case is wrapped in carbon fiber leather which is a new kind of material combining the properties of both leather and carbon fiber imparting toughness, flexibility and a good grip.

Griffin.Nu.Form is TERRIBLE
November 29, 2008 at 11:32 pm
I purchased the Griffin Nu Form case (in grey and black) when it first came out. Within 2 weeks, the case began cracking on top (near where the sim card is located) and on the side (near the hold/silence button). I contacted Griffin and they sent me a new case, but it was the same one! (Customer service was very nice, but they sent the same POS.) Unlike the my first Nu Form case, this case seemed to fit much more snuggly. It was so tight on my phone that I could not fit the crappy piece of plastic “screen protector” that came with it between my phone screen and the case. Furthermore, when I removed the case (a struggle because it was so tight) I discovered it had scratched my phone! I would sell it on eBay, but I would be feel bad passing on such a poorly designed case. I am currently not using a case, but looking for something good… Any suggestions? The cases in the article are too intense for my liking…

I prefer cretouch’s carbon fiber case over case-mate. Cretouch’s carbon case is much thinner and slimmer than case-mate. I got to see both cases and case-mate was too thick and makes my Beauty iPhone look ugly and bulky. cretouch.com

As cases go, Griffin is my favorite I have used thus far. Low impact to functionality and bulk, highly protective, and very attractive. While I sure like the look and feel of going naked (with the phone, you dirty minded peoples), this has been the best option I have found yet To protect the look and size while maintaining the finish of my pretty white iPhone 3g. I high recommend this Griffin product. But sometimes it charges so higher, so I have no chocie to get other cheaper iphone cases, especially in such poverty days.
