When we received the Vintage Sable case from Noreve it was packages exceptionally well. When I opened the box to take the case out I was shocked to find a nicely presented bag, inside that bag was the Exception Vintage Sable for the BlackBerry Z10 (be sure to check out the photos below)! After taking the case out my initial thought was “oh man, I hope I don’t get it dirty”. The case is beautifully crafted and looked like a million dollars sitting in my hand.

After the thought of getting the case dirty I realized this case is what everyone needs that “pocket carries” the device. When you place the BlackBerry Z10 into the case you get this feeling of accomplishment. The Z10 fits snugly in the case once you close the front cover of the case it puts the Z10 to sleep, thanks to the built in magnet. Once you remove the front cover that protects your Z10 screen the magnet wakes the device and you are off to the races.

All in all the Noreve Exception Vintage Sable leather case is a welcomed addition to the BlackBerry Z10. It offers superior style and protection to the BlackBerry Z10. If you or anyone you know is looking for that beautiful, handcrafted genuine leather case then you want to make sure you check out Noreve.

You learn more or purchase the Noreve Exception Vintage Sable leather case for the BlackBerry Z10 for €57.99/$76.31USD.

In our quest to find the best cases for the BlackBerry Z10 , we take a look at the Ballistic Shell Gel SG Series Case. I have been a big fan of Ballistic case I guess since BlackBerry Live formally BlackBerry World 2012. Once I saw how well the Ballistic Tough Jacket Case for the BlackBerry PlayBook preformed I knew I had to have one on each of my devices. Since then I have used Ballistic cases on my PlayBook, Bold 9900 and now my BlackBerry Z10.

Ballistic offers two color combinations for the Z10 Shell Gel case, black on black and charcoal and white. We decided to go with the charcoal and white. As you can see in the video and images above and below the charcoal and white look great on the BlackBerry Z10. Ballistics offers three layers of protection, in my opinion it should be said that it offers only two again just my opinion. They both offer three layers of protection: Layer 1 – Soft silicone equipped with Ballistic Corners, Layer 2 – Tough impact resistant polycarbonate shell, Layer 3 – Ballistic shock absorbent polymer. The reason I said it should be that it offers two layers of protection is the fact it is a two part case.

According to the retail packaging a BlackBerry Z10 rocking a Ballistic Shell Gel SG Series Case can be dropped from approximately seven feet high. Now I am not brave enough to attempt dropping my Z10 from seven feet up… If you are brave enough to try it let us know in the comments what the outcome was. If you are a pocket carrier, meaning you carry your device in your pocket this may be the case for you. I must tell you after a bit of use the corners become gummy and tend to make the device a bit harder to get out of your pocket. Other then that the case is awesome. One would expect to see some sort of discoloration on the white portion of the case, this is not the case by far. The case is still bright white and like new.

Here is what Ballistic lists as the description on their website:

Ok BlackBerry users, we know most of you are on the go – so for you, we offer the utmost pocket-able protection…our Ballistic Shell Gel SG Series Case for the BlackBerry Z10. This case is equipped with three layers of amazing protection! An amazing feature included in our SG Series is the Ballistic Corners™ – which means all four corners have extra shock absorption, right where you need it most. So drop your phone with confidence, in the airport, office, parking lot, or even at home – you’ll always be protected with our Ballistic Shell Gel SG Series Case for the BlackBerry Z10.

• Advanced three layers of protection

• Pocket-able protection

• Equipped with a lay-on-table-feature

• No-slip grip

The big corners on the case offer an incredible amount of protection from drops and more. As you can see in the video and in the images the lip on the front of the case offers protection for the devices screen when laid face down. If you lay the device face down or the back side of the device down you do not have to worry about the device sliding off of the table, hints the “no-slip grip” feature.

Over all the BlackBerry Z10 Ballistic Shell Gel SG Series Case is a great buy for someone that pocket carries their device and wants maximum protection from drops and other disasters that you may encounter in this world. If you have used or are using a Ballistics’s case we want to hear from you in the comments!

Purchase the BlackBerry Z10 Ballistic Shell Gel SG Series Case for $34.99

What is a PowerSkin case? Well it is a silicone and plastic case that houses a built in 1500 mAh battery. As you can see in the video and images  below the case fits snugly over the BlackBerry Z10 to keep it protected and charged while on the go. The built in 1500 mAh battery will recharge your Z10 to about 65-75% full if your battery is drained to 10% or lower. This extra boost of juice allows you to stay connected and on the go longer.

The PowerSkin case for the BlackBerry Z10 offers a few great features:

• You can sync your device while re-charging at the same time. No need to remove the PowerSkin
• Adds protection to your device
• Supports NFC through the case
• The PowerSkin has a built battery level indicator
• You have the ability to turn the PowerSkin on or off with the press of a button

What make this battery case different from ones I have use in the past on my BlackBerry Bold 9900 is the fact BlackBerry does not have charging contacts on the new BlackBerry Z10. As you will see in the below video the PowerSkin case actually has a built in cable with a Micro USB connector on the end. This micro USB cable plugs right in to the charging port on the BlackBerry Z10. Once the cable is plugged in you will see a little slot in the case that allows for the cable and connector to sit nicely in the case.

All in all the PowerSkin case for the BlackBerry Z10 is an excellent choice for charging on the go. We do wish the PowerSkin would have produced the case in a few color options, but that is neither here nor there. If you have or are planing on picking a PowerSkin case up for the BlackBerry Z10 we would love to hear your thoughts in the comments.
