There are many varieties of cases for the BlackBerryTour 9630 which include, but are not limited to, soft cases and hard cases. Both types are designed to protect the BlackBerry Tour 9630 from dust and scratches; some may even help protect the BlackBerry Tour if it is dropped.

Soft cases, which can protect well against scratches, are not as resistant to shock as hard cases would be. If the Blackberry Tour is dropped then it is still prone to damage, but the soft case can protect it from scratches. There are two main type of soft cases: thick, soft cases or cases made of neoprene or cloth and invisible cases, which are just scratch protectors.http://shop.crackberry.com/blackberry-skin-case/4A54A5514.htm http://shop.crackberry.com/invisibleshield-full-body/4A133A5710.htm

Hard cases, which tend to be bulkier than the softer cases, can help protect against both scratches and impact if the phone is dropped (though a hard enough impact can still cause significant damage).http://shop.crackberry.com/smartphone-experts-snap-on-case/4A123A5714.htm
