Think thin with the original slim case. Coming from CaseMate, the Barely There BlackBerry Z10 case forms a classic and protective design that shows off the timeless look of your device. CaseMate, is a brand that has been in the protective casing industry for mobile devices, including the BlackBerry devices for many years now. Built with impact resistant hard shell which covers the back and sides, while the lay-flat feature protects the front of your BlackBerry by extending the bezel above the screen. A silicone interior liner provides impact cushioning and an impressive detailed pattern.

The CaseMate, being a 3rd party case, came in a much more sophisticated packaging as compared to the original series of the BlackBerry’s line of cases.

As written on the packaging, it is supposed to be soft lining on the interior for the comfort of the device whilst being impact resistant on the outside. Definitely we are not going to test or challenge this but we are going to just accept this for it is.

Built with a precise cut and build for the z10, its built clearly to fit the z10 snuggly.

As you can see, it is built so tightly for the z10, and all the necessary holes and cutouts for for devices are present. However, evidently, the cuts for the top and bottom are just way too much or too big for comfort.

Conclusion?
The Casemate barely there is indeed as its name mentions, a barely there case. Protecting little part of the device; just the essential are properly protected. This is a really basic case. The rubbery feel of it is good, but for the coverage, I wouldn’t for this.
