Nokia N97 Tuff Luv Carry Case Review
The Nokia N97 is a smartphone that needs no introduction and for every day use doesn’t need any extra protection. However, it’s always good to have a carry case for when you’re travelling or simply want to throw the handset in your hand luggage. The Nokia N97 Tuff Luv carry case is ideal for this purpose, as you’ll find out in with our Tuff Luv review…
The Nokia N97 Tuff Luv carry case is made from solid leather and is a fold-over case designed to protect your smartphone on the move. We found this an incredibly tough carry case and with an attachment to add it to your belt, it’s also highly versatile.

The out casing feels solid and tough and the stitching is wrong, making this one rugged solution. Open it up and you’ll see that you slide the bottom half (the QWERTY part) into a plastic pocket and is held in place at the back by a small clip.
The screen half of your Nokia N97 is left free to slide open and closed as needs-be. The idea behind this is that the keyboard never gets wet or dirty when being used in rough conditions. After all, the screen is designed to be exposed more than the QWERTY keyboard.
There are holes punched around the side of the case so you don’t need to slide it out again for anything. So, you can charge, get at the keyguard, camera buttons and audio jack with ease. There is even a gap on the back so you don’t need to take the Nokia N97 even to take photos.
We’ve looked at some good Nokia N97 carry cases recently and this has to be amongst the best. We’re seriously impressed the Nokia N97 Tuff Luv carry case, as it offers plenty of protection without being too bulky or obstructive. The Nokia N97 Tuff Luv carry case costs £19.95 (inc. VAT) and is available from MobileFun
