School May Be Hazardous To Your Cell Phone
It is back to school again and of course, you will be taking your best friend and constant companion with you, your mobile phone. It is very important that you keep your cell phone in good working condition and looking nice. The secret to that end is a good custom phone case and/or phone skin.
Obviously, the first practical reason to use cell phone protectors is to protect the phone from every day abuse. Your mobile phone is a very important link to your entire social network and personal social life. Therefore, it is imperative that you keep your cell phone in good working condition, looking good and easily accessible.
The best way to protect your mobile phone is to use a combination of custom phone skins and a carrying case.
A belt mounted mobile phone carrying case (phone pouch or phone holster) adds protection against minor abuse and makes the phone readily available for use. Carrying cases are made of thick materials (some are padded) that greatly reduce the chance of damaging the phone. Phone pouches protect against the elements and are more secure than holsters that offer faster access to the phone.
Custom phone skins protect the phone from accidental scratches in and outside the carrying case. There will be times when you do not want to carry a phone pouch or holster on your belt. The alternative is to place the phone in your purse or pocket where it is vulnerable to scratches.
Another solution is a mobile phone case. Cell phone cases come in several styles, the most popular include custom hard case shells and a silicone (or other similar material) based soft shell. Both types add additional protection but lack the ability to attach the cell phone to a belt. Many hard cases are thin enough that the cell phone may slip into a phone pouch, while the bulk of a soft case prohibits the use of a phone pouch.
A custom phone case is an excellent choice for anyone who does not like to wear a phone on his/her belt, but prefers to place the phone in a pocket or purse.
A screen protector is a must!
Regardless of you choice for a phone protector (or not to use one), a scratch resistant screen protector is necessary, especially on touch screens. After a few months of normal use, screens on all phones become scratched. Eventually the screen gets dull, images begin to blur and you loose detail in your graphics. Scratches can be avoided by using a scratch resistant screen protector from day one.
