Being prone to drop my Blackberry and have the battery fall out, I finally purchased a $10 clear plastic case at T-Mobile last week and hated the way it covered the screen as it caused some strange, dizzying refractions. So I returned it, bought this online for $2.99 and received it within two days - and there's no plastic covering the screen. I've dropped the bloody phone twice already and no problems! Quite happy so far...

This is a really tough case, I will attest to that. Since having it on my phone (perhaps a month) this case has absorbed several dozen scratches that, if unguarded, would be on my Blackberry. The case itself also looks fantastic on the phone, and gives it some extra bulk (which helps when holding the phone while texting.)

The real drawback is that dirt and lint and who knows what else can slide between the case and the phone, and since this case is clear, its extremely noticeable. It makes the phone look terrible. The only way to clean is to get the case off, which is a chore at best. It seems the case was truly meant to go on and not to come off, and through removal the case has chipped an area of the finish off of the top of my phone. Not really the case's fault, though directly a result of the case itself.

I ordered one of these clear cases to protect my blackberry curve and it was all good until I decided to take the battery out as you often do to fix most problems with these phones. The case is pretty difficult to remove and I googled several places including contacting the company where it was purchased and no one seemed to know how to remove it correctly...finally I figured out to remove it took some dexterity as it takes 2 small pairs of needle nose plyers on opposite sides of the case and some careful twisting motion to get it removed. After removing it to take the battery out it seemed to go back together o.k. but then I decided to install a memory chip and again the task of removing it with two pairs of plyers and the possibility of damaging the cell itself with this procedure led me to decide to use one of the gell cases that remove a lot easier. I wouldn't give one of these cases to anyone I wanted to remain friends with at least not for a blackberry cell.

Like another reviewer I don't have a problem getting it off because I can't get it to stay on for more than 2 seconds. The clasps for clipping it together are not good enough. I have an 8330. Not worth the return shipping, more money down the drain.

Snaps together perfectly over my 8330. It even fits perfect inside the belt holster I have.

I have a Blackberry Curve 8320 from T-Mobile. Got this case to help protect from bumps, knocks, keys in the pocket, etc.
Never any problems with it coming off, and it has already saved the phone from a bad fall once in the first week.

This product isn't even staying on my phone. It's beautiful on, makes my phone look new... but only if I can just keep it on without it immediately popping back off! (sighs)

But what did I expect? I have a 8330, and although the case fit the phone, the clips were not able to stay closed to protect the phone. If the locking device was improved, I might like it.

This case had so many scratches on it that I didn't even put it on my phone. I just threw it out. But what should I expect when I pay $0.01 + shipping? I guess saving money isn't worth receiving a bad product.

Case didn't even snap closed. E-mailed the company and didn't even get a response. Sad when they can't even stand behind their product.
