The only choice is literally

While other cases say they will fit the Blackberry Passport (some even claim they are made for an ATT model passport), this case is the only one that does does. After Blackberry released the Passport, ATT required a change in appearance before the device could be worn. Hence the rounded (and much better) corners. This necessary change was supported in the US market, however, Blackberry's main markets are in Canada and Europe. As a result, the Passport ATT version did not receive proper accessory support. This Body Glove case appears to be the only case that fits the ATT Passport - with a few minor flaws. The Passport's unique design draws the attention of those who notice. A suspicious inconspicuous item on the belt, like a black square "thing", will attract more attention. The Body Glove's decision to hide the Blackberry logo on the back of the Passport resulted in the device becoming a boxy, lazy thing on a belt. Displaying the Blackberry logo in a special cutout would be a better choice for a case design that only attaches in an open belt clip. The big design flaw of this element is the lack of an LED notification window. The advantage of the Blackberry Passport lies in its ability to notify the user of incoming messages with visual LED alerts. These notifications can be color-coded for specific accounts and contacts. When stored in the belt clip, the LED indicator is fully closed. When performing a task that can mask vibration mode, the user will not hear the warning. If the user can mark where the LED attaches to the belt clip, a small hole can be drilled in the belt clip to expose the LED. A simple solution that should have been implemented in the Body Glove.

Pros
  • The best
Cons
  • The packaging is ugly
