    For a year and half I've wondered why all of the cases for the Blackberry 10 phones need to cover up the Blackberry logo on the back of the phone. I purchased the Otterbox Defender in February 2013 and unlike the iPhone cases, the Otterbox covered up the logo. Every iPhone out there with a case allows the Apple logo to be displayed. So, why not the Blackberry phones?

    I purchased the set of 3 from Crackberry some time ago and decided to give my shakey freehand a go to see what it would look like. The circle needs to be a bit smaller in my opinion.

    Crackberry, why not change your molds?

    I need to find a small, sharp cookie cutter. Off to the store.

    Haha. Nice. That's exactly what I was thinking while reading your first post. Tell us how it goes. I've only had one case for my Z10 that had a proper hole showing off the BB logo. It was $12 case plastic and rubber two piece that saved it from quite a few falls within weeks of getting it.

    Been looking at my cases and wondering the same thing for a while... so tonight I took the plunge (on one of my cases, the one that already is beaten up pretty bad and missing the usb port plug)

    The hard part of the case was already cut out, it was just on the soft plastic.

    My cuts are not pretty enough... but it does work. I'll post pic up soon.

    Here's a picture. I left it in the yellow hard case so you could see the cuts. Again, not real pretty, but I have ways of cleaning it up, if/when...

    Just wish I could get a few more of these cases in other colors!BB Logo Hidden-008_zps251c2350.jpg

    Use a hole saw or a Forstner bit in a drill to do it y'all. Pics below are examples - they both are available in small sizes.

    Had thought about a holesaw, but never got down to the local Canadian Tire or other hardware stores. Just wondered how it would work on rubber.

    Both types will work. Use low speed and make sure the case is held tightly against a backing piece of wood for stability. I used two small speed clamps on a 2x4. C-clamps would work excellent. You?ll be placing the case backside/outside down on the 2x4 and drilling from the inside. Use a small bit of sandpaper or a Dremel tool to soften the edges after drilling.

    Hey I'm getting a Q5 tomorrow (excited) and bought a case in anticipation. It was $9.96 at The SOURCE (CANADA) so that may be an option. They had red and black in stock when I went today.
