For the past few weeks I have been using the Graphite case from Griffin to protect my iPhone 3GS. Normally I prefer the naked look of the iPhone but this case was able to win me over. The Graphite features a 2-part slider back for the best protection offered by a hard case. It also has a very nice textured back in a carbon fiber “graphite” weave pattern. The face of the case features a hyper-black chrome trim that circulates around the borders and seam lines of the body. It leaves the top and bottom exposed so you can even leave the case on to remove the SIM card. All in all I was very happy with this case, it does have a little bit more bulk than I prefer, but its overall aesthetics are enough to over look that.

The Graphite case is available for the iPhone 3G and iPod touch 2G at most apple retail stores as well as apple online and through Griffin.
Price: $34.99
