This, to me, is a smart product. Not only am I always looking for conceptual products for iPhone, but I’m really not a fan of a bunch of flaps, snaps, or worst of them… belt clips. This kind of stuff usually seems, to me, like putting a roof rack on a Porsche. Functional yes, but well.. I just can’t.

This product covers one side of the iPhone at a time, with aluminum, rubber and Neoprene. When your not using it, placing it on the front protects your screen from getting bumped & scratched. When you use the iPhone, just pull it off the front, and place it on the back, so even the back is protected when setting it down briefly, etc. This also, by the way, offers a bit more grip for the iPhone… the iPhone design is beautiful, but it can get away from you. This is a real plus.

When I first placed it on the iPhone, it didn’t seem like it would stay… it goes on easily. But just for holding it, using it, placing it in your pocket, it stays on fine. I’d like a little more grip, but it’s incidental. The Neoprene on the inside grips quite well, and is respectful of the surface of your device. You can also easily place it in the dock with it in place on the front, and all exterior controls are available.

Available in silver, black and red… The JAVOedge Shield Case is a change of pace from the myriad of cases available now for iPhone, and is made well. For $12.99, this is cool, inexpensive protection for the iPhone… I like it.
