Griffin iPhone 3GS cases
Griffin has uncovered new and updated cases for the iPhone and iPod touch: the Reveal, Elan Passport Metal, FlexGrip and Elan Form with Sky Blue Trim. The Reveal case is designed for the iPhone and iPod touch, and uses a thin polycarbonate outer shell with rubber interior lining. Meant to protect against minor impacts and scratches, the case also includes a static-peel screen protector.
The Elan Passport Metal is built for the second-generation iPod touch, and features a leather folio design with micro-suede lining. A flap covers the screen, though the case is also bundled with a screen protector and a cleaning cloth.
The FlexGrip also fits the second-gen Touch, but uses hard two-tone silicone protection. Full access to ports, controls and the screen is provided, along with a raised surface to prevent the case from sliding out of a hand.
The Elan Form with Sky Blue Trim is intended to fit the iPhone 3G and 3GS. The case blends leather and polycarbonate, and can be left on a phone during charging or syncing. It also comes with a flexible screen protector to prevent smudging or scraping.
The new Griffin cases are available from the company website, and priced at $25 for the Reveal, $35 for the Elan Passport Metal, and $30 for the new Elan Form with Sky Blue Trim. FlexGrip costs range from $8 to $20 depending on the model.
