Proporta has just released a whole bunch of new goodies for the Nokia N95. Make sure to check them out if you are one of the lucky users of a N95! 

Nokia have yet again proved why they are still the number one mobile phone maker in the world. The Nokia N95 8GB is a high performance multimedia device incorporating many features, not least with it’s 8GB worth of phone memory, it also encompasses a 5 mega-pixel camera, email with attachments, GPS, document viewer, push to talk and many more.

Proporta feel this is one device that most certainly deserves protection, and they are reliably on hand to provide all the necessary accessories.

Proporta’s highly anticipated Alu-Crystal Case (Nokia N95 8GB) is made from a durable material that combines scratch resistant polycarbonate plastic, the same that’s used to make protective eyewear no less, with an aircraft grade aluminium. Designed to add hardly any bulk to your device and compliment rather than hide your Nokia N95 8GB’s stunning looks, you’ll struggle to find a more lightweight yet protective case.

If you want to get your mitts on the Proporta Alu-Crystal Case (Nokia N95 8GB) (and who could blame you?) be sure to grab one quick as there is limited stock available at the moment.

If you’re more of a leather person you’ll struggle to find a more stylish and protective leather case than this… Proporta’s Alu-Leather Case (Nokia N95 8GB) – custom made and features a layer of rigid, yet lightweight aircraft grade aluminium which lines the leather and subtly protects your screen against crushing and impact shocks.

For added protection, Proporta also produce an Advanced Screen Protector (Nokia n95 8GB Series) to protect your Nokia N95 8GB’s delicate screen from scratches, scrapes and dust evasion. With an improved thickness made from a new ultra high-clarity plastic that doesn’t impair screen brightness and clarity, this protector is also fully washable and replaceable.
