I’ve finally received the iPhone cases from Proporta, I guess I should call it products review since they were nice enough to send me not one but three cases to write about as well as a bag of Yorkshire Tea and a postcard. I just wanted to say thank you again.

The three cases I got were the Shine Case, the Ted Baker Hard Shell Case II and finally my favorite of all, the Doodle Pad Hard Shell. All of them are designed for iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S. The latter two are for the back and sides of the iPhone 4/4S only.

The fit:
All three cases fit nearly perfectly, I suspect its due to my white iPhone’s slight difference in size from its black counterpart. For the Ted Baker Hard Shell Case II and the Doodle Pad Hard Shell, it may take a bit more effort to remove the case once its “clipped” on, again its probably because the white iPhone is marginally bigger? Mind you, this is not solely a Proporta problem, many other iPhone case manufaturers have the same problem with the white iPhone. Besides, its barely noticeable.

Aside from the leather made Shine Case which is a bit too bulky for my taste, the two hard cases do not give me the sense of bulkiness at all. They are just thick enough for you to know they are there protecting your phone but not to the point where you feel your phone got fatter.

The style:
I cannot really comment much about the Shine Case since its obviously aimed towards the ladies with its red leather and floral casing. But it feels a bit too old school for my taste but its obviously looks subjective. Flip it open you there is a mirror tucked just below the top leather layer. Alternatively, it can be swapped out with anything from credit card to driver’s license or any other card that fits. When I looked into the mirror (no I was not trying to put make up on!) I felt like the mirror makes my face narrower, is that purposely designed so the ladies can look narrower than they really are?

The Ted Baker Hard Shell Case II has a pretty nice design, specially the one I got, which is the Garden Print with its garden + abstract patterns. If you like abstract and/or nature things then you might be interested in checking this one out. And the bottom has a nice semi-shiny name plate with Ted Baker engraved on it which I thought was a nice touch. I did not know who Ted Baker was but after some quick Googling I do now.

Now onto my favorite Doodle Pad case, I just love it for its simplicity. It is nothing fancy and it does not have to be. It is also the cheapest one among all three. The doodle drawings just bring back my a lot of my childhood memories with all these childish drawings and phrases like “I AM COOL”, “Hiya” etc. On top of that, it looks great on the white iPhone with its white paper background. I think it would be too much of a contrast if you were to put it on a black iPhone but its just a matter of personal taste.

The feel:
I’ve always had the impression that shiny or glossy things are slippery but I find the Shine Case’s shiny leather exterior easy to grab and does not feel slippery. The other two cases, as the names suggested, are hard cases and feel sturdy. I love the rubbery feel when holding them with more than enough grip that should minimize the chance of dropping it. Now that I have the Doodle Pad case, my phone should have no problem staying in my pants’ pocket while I drive with all the grip. Last thing I want is for my phone to drop out of the car and onto some hard concrete floor when I get out of it.

All in all I think Proporta makes pretty good quality cases. You will agree with me as soon as you grab one in your hands. I highly recommend the Ted Baker series and the Doodle Pad. Specially the Doodle Pad if you have a white iPhone.

Proporta, the mobile device and gadget accessory manufacturer, is pleased to showcase its range of exclusive cases for the Apple iPhone, which is the result of unique collaboration with top designers. Each case has all the protection know-how of Proporta combined with the style and elegance that only the very best of fashion minds can create.

These super-tough hard shell cases protect against scratches and impact damage, have a soft feel finish, and are also available in black. The Ted Baker Pouch – Black with Swallow Print Lining is another superb new addition to the range, with the handcrafted case fitting like a glove and coming with a Ted Baker signature lining for that extra touch of class.

The Quiksilver range of hard cases offers equally robust protection against all forms of damage, and comes in a striking “Echo Beach”, Quiksilver branded design. Clever cut-outs allow for full usability without ever removing the device, and the case also comes in green, blue and black.

Roxy supplies a further range of cutting-edge designs, including blue and pink Roxy prints, a Cynthia Rowley print and a choice of pink, white or black cases. As with all Proporta’s hard shells for the iPhone, they fit like a glove, protect against all forms of damage and add almost no bulk to the device.

Proporta also offers a full range of other accessories for the iPhone, including super-clear Advanced Screen Protectors ($6.95), Antibacterial Screen Protectors that guard against 99.9% of germs ($10.95) and a whole range of otherdesigns including the Maya, Shine Case and Alu Leather range.

 Perfect Proporta protection for the iPhone killers – Introducing cases for Droid, Milestone, Nexus One and Storm 2

The iPhone and its horde of devotees may think that they rule the Smartphone roost, but there are more and more credible challengers to the throne.  Proporta has picked three of their favourites, and come up with some typically impressive accessories to keep them safe and sound, and looking spiffing.

For the Motorola Droid there’s the Aluminium Lined Leather Case (Motorola Droid/Milestone) that is handcrafted from the finest quality leather, and features Proporta’s trademark “Screen Saver System”, with a sheet of lightweight, aircraft grade aluminium built in to protect against crushing and impact damage.

Meanwhile, for the HTC Google Nexus One, there’s the impeccable Impact Protective Crystal Back Shell (HTC Google Nexus One), that fits like a glove, and offers unbeatable protection with a soft feel finish.

Last but not least, there’s the Mizu Shell for the BlackBerry Storm 2.  This super tough silicone case offers robust protection against knocks, scratches and impact damage, and with the range of colour options it’s as stylish as it is strong.

Also, to get complete protection for your device, Proporta also has their unrivalled Screen Protectors.  The ultra high clarity plastic protects your screen like a dream, and each protector comes with a kit for easy application, and a cleaning cloth for easy long term care. 

But don’t think that Proporta is abandoning the iPhone in all of this – there’s no sides being taken here.  Take, for example, the Antimicrobial Case with Steritouch (Apple iPhone 3GS).  Not only is it a super-tough silicone case that will keep your iPhone safe and sound, it also features a special antimicrobial coating that will help to protect you against any germs and nasties.

With this sort of protection onside, these challengers to the iPhone supremacy have just got that little bit closer to their rival.  But whether you’re an iPhone lover, or solemnly sworn to one of their rivals, don’t worry – Proporta has it covered.

P.S. The USB TurboCharger 3400 can be used to charge up any of the devices above and can guarantee that you’ll never run out of juice again.
