Because of their beautiful cases">case designs, reviewing a Probably the best alternative for protecting the iPhone, this
Vaja product is always a pleasure. Even more, the product quality delivered by this Argentinean
company never cease to amaze me. This week, we’re reviewing the i-volution
Top SP, an iPhone leather cases">case.
leather case delivers a maximum protection to the mobile device, with no comprise on
style. The corners are well protected, and when you flip the top on the iPhone screen, the device is protected from any accidental impact.
But besides the good iPhone protectiveness
provided by the case, the product really adds to the value and style of
the iPhone. Most of the cases on the market are a compromise between
protection and style. In my opinion, the i-volution Top SP brings both
to the iPhone.
I
used the product for several weeks and there is not a single scratch on the case nor the iPhone.
The only thing I would have changed on this
product, is the unremovable top. If you’re using the iPhone
frequently, you might feel that the top is an useful part, but you
can’t remove it from the holster.
It was
fairly easy to slip the iPhone in and out of the case, and it holds the
iPhone tightly as well.
The beauty
of these cases, is the personalization you can do with them. You can choose the color you want, the belt
clip system you prefer and you can even add a text or a graphic on the back of the product. Talk about flexibility. On the other
hand, Vaja cases are available online only and it takes a few weeks before
the item is shipped to you.
This Vaja iPhone case has a retail price of $80, and options can bring your total cost to over a $100.

This is a beautiful case, I just ordered one. I wonder if the small strip of leather will eventually wear out, and snap if you constantly fold the cover to the back.

Rob-
The orange leather strip has been applied before the black leather strip and it’s larger than what is visible. That means that the orange strip just can’t wear out.

I meant the small strip of leather that bends to allow the top drop away from the screen. I can’t imagine talking on the iPhone with the top dangling around my chin. So if one folds the top to the back I wonder if that leather will wear out.
