  rubberized skin blackberry curve 8330, 2009-10-24
This skin works really well easy to slide on but doesn't just slide right off like I thought it might which is a good thing, protects your phone very well also I dropped mine on concrete earlier this week not a scratch on it kind bounced of the ground actually recommend this to anyone with a curve!

The skin is worth the money. I am very hard on phones and it has saved mine from being bea up on the back and sides. Well worth the money and fast shipping.

I hadn't planned on writing a review for the Blackberry Rubberized Skin but I dropped my phone the other day on pavement, to my horror. When I picked it up, there was nay a scratch on my phone. That, is the true test of how protective this skin really is.

I initially tried the included pouch, Otterbox case, and the Seidio snap-on case. For various reasons, I ended up with the rubberized skin as my "case" of choice. It's simple to remove and put on, has all the proper cutouts for the controls, camera and charging port. It provides a better grip than without it, but does pick up lint and debris. The dark grey version does not show as much lint as the black.

My only complaint is that even though the description states that it is compatible with the 8330 Curve, there is one part that really isn't for the Verizon 8330. The Verizon 8330 has the notification LED on the actual face, to the right of the ear speaker. The cutout for the LED however, is far above it. This makes it so that a piece of the top is exposed unnecessarily. The case functions the same but if you're wondering why there's a cutout when your LED is below it, now you know why.

I'm amazed that you can buy the actual Blackberry OEM skin for such a low cost on Amazon. Verizon sells these for much more in the stores. The skin is so useful and a great value, that whenever I need a free shipping filler, I plan on getting more of them in other colors. Great skin for my Verizon Blackberry 8330.

 

  Very nice, 2009-09-22
For the price you can't go wrong. This rubberized skin fits nice and snug over my BlackBerry 8300 and, while I don't feel it affords much protection from bumps or bruises, it does create a non-skid surface. Those reviewers who complained because it doesn't prevent skidding are nuts, because it does. And those who complained about it being flimsy and easily torn - duh, when you take it out of the package it is obvious that this needs to be handled with care so you just have to handle it with caution and put it on your BlackBerry with a gentle touch. If you are too dumb to realize that then that's your problem. For most people, as evidenced by the favorable reviews, they had enough sense to see the obvious - treat it nicely. Also, I noticed this same item was "on sale" at a major brick and mortar store this past weekend, whose initials are "B.B." for a ridiculous $15.99. Buying this same item from Amazon is a no-brainer.
