Necessary Protection: 12 iPhone Cases You Need
Wednesday, 5 Sep 2012
Honestly, we’re not the most savvy techies, but we’ve cracked our phones on the pavement/ dropped it in the toilet/ accidentally drowned it in the pool one too many times for us not to care about protection.
From the multi-functional (and still sleek) cases to the bike-friendly, pool-friendly, and (allegedly) shockproof cases, we’ve got your iPhone’s back.
Top Row (L-R):
If you regularly make quick dashes to the store, check out The Mummy, which comes with a plastic card storage and in a multitude of colours (USD25).
Planning a pool party or just heading to the beach? Trust us – the Scuba Suit (USD60) will be your saviour. Bonus: you get to take really dreamy underwater photos.
Luxe leather fans will appreciate Evouni’s classic leather iPhone case, available at Nimbus, Wheelock Place. And if you’re a regular cyclist, the Kraken AMS comes in candy colours and with a compatible bike mount – handy!
Bottom Left:
Need some heavy duty protection? The Lunatik Taktik is a complete system that has water and dust resistant speakers, gorilla glass lens, and a shockproof suspension system. It may not be the sleekest thing in your bag, but it does its job well.
Pattern Play:
Accessorize your phone! These easily switchable cases give you minimum protection but maximum impact when it comes to dressing up.
