Piel Frama BlackBerry Playbook iMagnum Leather Folio Case in Black
Olé, Olé, Olé! Yes, my favorite football club just won another game, but I am also shouting these praises for the luxurious Piel Frama leather case that I have in my hands. This Spanish brand has impressed me once again, this time with a sophisticated handmade case for the BlackBerry Playbook. In addition to securely holding you device, the design has a soft, comfortable feel that you certainly won’t want to let go of.
Pros
- Access to all device controls/features
- ABS inserted protection
- Cover-clip for secure closure
Cons
- Cover-clip makes for difficult opening
- Playbook’s top corners left exposed
- High-end cost
Overview
The artisans at Piel Frama must have some very nimble fingers, because within 3 days after ordering they can deliver an expertly handcrafted, high-quality genuine leather case for your device, like this design for the Playbook.
This folio tablet case is made of genuine Spanish cowhide, which has an amazing soft-touch exterior and a nice interior lining with tiny Piel Frama font embossed pattern. For added protection, the inner structure contains layers of gummy material, thermoplastic polymer and strong fabric. The tablet slides easily inside and the small lip on the sides of the case will hold it secure. The struggle lies in the design of the cover’s clip fastener, which for me made opening the case rather difficult.

Editor's Rating
| Rating | Description |
|---|---|
| N/A | |
| 4.0 | Functionality: At times the case collapsed when I touched the tablet screen, but during viewing modes it did stand stable on my desktop. Buttons, port, audio-jack and both cameras remain completely accessible and usable while the device is encased. |
| 5.0 | Protection: If the case collapses during browsing/viewing modes, the material composition will help cushion the blow. Your device will be protected against everyday wear and tear, and the inner structure also has what it takes for your tablet to most likely sustain a few minor accidental drops. The package includes a suede cloth for wiping dust/fingerprints off the screen. |
| 5.0 | Quality: This handmade case is beautifully stitched and sealed to show-off Piel Frama’s expert craftsmanship and attention toward detail. |
| 3.0 | Value: In a bull market you probably wouldn’t think twice about splurging, so as far as luxury cases go, I think Piel Frama designs are worth every last penny. |
| 4.3 | Overall: Great Piel Frama has created a luxurious leather case for pampering both you and your Playbook with solid function, protection and sophisticated style… C’mon, sing with me, Olé, Olé, Olé! |

"Safe and stylish"
Beauty and style my BlackBerry PlayBook deserves. The Piel Frama uses one of the best leather materials I’ve even seen. Smooth and soft, it not only looks good, but also keeps your tablet safe. Moreover, there’s an additional layer of protection to ensure no harm befalls the device.
