I recommend it. There is no belt clip which makes it perfect to fit in the pocket. Perfect case for my Blackberry 8350i. Protects it against scratches and fallings.
This case will do the job (and the price was right) but I won't miss it when I finally replace my phone. The vinyl is thinner, it puckers along the seams (especially on the bottom), and, instead of having a nice rubbery coating, the edges are rough. I purchased this case as a replacement for the case my dog chewed up. While I have no doubt that this is an OEM product (my wife recently purchased a BlackBerry Curve that shipped with the exact same case), I have to say that it is of a lower quality than the case that came with the BlackBerry I purchased more than a year ago.
This case fits tighter than the original BUT it works. So finally we bought this as a hopeful replacement. The magnet puts the phone on standby, prevents numbers getting accidently pressed and using up the minutes, and stops everything in her purse, alive or not, from damaging the phone. A husband's review - My wife drops 'her' Blackberry 8310 in the virtual black hole of a purse she has and wanted a case that won't let every random acticle that occupies her 12lb purse dial the phone accidently or let it get scratched up. We lost the original case, and after searching through her purse for about 30 minutes, we've concluded that only God and our kids know where the original case went.
The magnet in the case (make sure the phone is facing so that you can see the front through the little notch) puts the phone in sleep mode. The snug fit and sturdy construction protect the phone - I gave my old 8300 to my son with a cool-looking (and expensive) Body Glove pouch (BIG mistake).
Other cases/pouches/shells, even ones that cost 5 times as much as this does with shipping, will NOT protect your BlackBerry like this OEM case. and within a month the screen was cracked.
As other reviewers have stated, this is the exact OEM case that comes with the BlackBerry Curve 8300 series. In addition to this, you can set a custom ring tone profile for when it's in its holster.
If I'd given him the OEM case and not that stylish, fancy one, I would not have just spent $130 on the insurance deductible. There is a good reason this is included with the original phone, it has important functions that will increase not only your phone's life, but your battery life as well.
Without that, the phone will constantly be being activated when you move around, and the battery goes pretty quick.
There is no clip on the back, so this won't hook to a belt or the outside of a purse, but this case will definitely keep your Blackberry safe inside your purse or pocket. The screen is protected inside, from scratches and cuts, and the design makes it simple to grasp the Blackberry to pull it in and out of the case when needed. Carry Case, Blackberry Vinyl Pocket Case / B001B38LUGMy Blackberry came with this case, and I was distraught when I lost it. This pocket case on Amazon is a perfect replacement, identical in every way to the one that came with my Blackberry.The case is snug and the Blackberry is never in danger of falling out.
