iPhones can take plenty of abuse, but they get scratched up pretty
quickly, which is one of the reasons why cases are necessary. Unlike
some, I prefer to keep my phone in as good condition as possible, so
when I inevitably upgrade and resell it, I get maximum value. The
BookBook case from Twelve South is an interesting idea, since it
combines a protective iPhone case with a wallet.(review from range)
The BookBook case is nicely designed, and fits the iPhone 4 and 4S
well. There are 3 slots for credit cards and ID cards, as well as a
small slip pocket for some cash. The best thing about this case is that
it keeps your iPhone screen scratch-free. Unless you are very diligent
in always storing your iPhone in a pocket with nothing else, it will
eventually get scratched up. Thanks to its phone pocket and folding
cover, this case stops this from happening. The case can also be put
inside a bag or purse without any problems.
Personally, I like my cases minimal and simple, but when I was offered
this case for review, it made me wonder if that’s really what I wanted.
For me, it’s not the best fit due to its bulk. The book-like cover is a
cute idea, but the overall design makes the phone a lot thicker than it
needs to be. That said, if you’re looking to travel light, it does
combine wallet and phone case, and that’s all some people need when they
go out clubbing.
With a list price of $59.99 (USD), the BookBook is one of the more
expensive iPhone cases I’ve seen. In fact, it’s close in price to some
of the waterproof cases that I’ve been looking at. That said, it’s
reasonably priced if you take into account the cost of both a case and a
wallet.
The BookBook case is available over at Twelve South in either brown or black leather. You can also find the case At Theideasforgift.com on sale for just $21 right now.
