(More customer reviews)I wasn't sure what kind of case I wanted for my Curve and tried a few before realizing just how great these Seidio brand cases were. I used the included Blackberry pouch for a 2 weeks while trying out different cases and also tried the Otterbox. In the end, I bought 3 of the Seidio cases in different colors I liked them so much.
The rubberized material is soft, does not pick up much dust or lint and provides excellent grip overall. It's actually a hard plastic snap-on case that provides complete protection around the BB, minus the screen, keyboard, and ports. The Otterbox's cover picked up a lot of dust and lint. The Seidio has all the correct openings for the speakers, buttons, headphone jack, data/charging port, and LED. It only adds slightly more bulk to the phone while providing excellent protection against drops and scratches. The Otterbox was MUCH too bulky and the LED cut out did not align as well and so I could not see the blinking LED while the phone was laying flat. The Blackberry pouch was nice but I felt like I was going to drop it each time I tried to remove it. It was also hard to drive with because I'd either have to remove it from the case and have no protection while driving or leave it in the pouch and try to remove it when I needed to use it or view the screen.
There are only few minor drawbacks to the case. First, it offers no protection for the screen. I remedied that by purchasing a screen protector from InvisibleShield. Second, there is a thin bar that runs over the Call/End buttons and trackball so scrolling up quickly is hindered. Lastly, I had to return two of these because they would not fit correctly over my BB. Of the 5 we purchased between my wife's BB and mine, we had to return 2. But once you get one that fits, it's great. Oh, it's also a little tough to remove the case but I recommend you stick your finger nail in between the top and bottom pieces at the bottom and running it from side-to-side to remove it.
I have the burgundy, blue, and black cases for myself and my wife has just the black one. Perfect cases for our Blackberry Curve 8330 Verizon phones.
