Don't want a cover that covers up your iPhone? The Gear 4 is an excellent transparent case that allows you to show off your iPhone's colour. As well as protecting your phone up to 14ft in case it's dropped, it's made from the same material as bulletproof glass!
Best lightweight case
If you're looking for the most lightweight and sleek case, then you have found it, as this case is only 0.02 inches thick. What we also love about this case is that it has a raised 'lip' around the camera which helps prevent the lens from getting scratched or damaged. It also comes in four different colours - frosted black, clear, frosted clear and green.
Best versatile case
This is the ideal case for anyone who doesn't want to have the added hassle of carrying around a wallet. With added compartments for your credit or debit cards and a cover that doubles up as a kickstand to watch films or TV series, this is one of the most versatile cases.
Best customisable photo case
If you want a completely personal case, then Casetify may just be the way to go. Offering 22 different outer colours and four different layouts, this product allows you to design your iPhone case with all of your favourite photographs and memories. It additionally allows you to instantly connect to Instagram, so once you've chosen your base colour and layout, you can select the pictures you want to add.
Best value for money
If you're on a bit more of a budget and don't want to spend too much money on a case, but don't want to compromise on the features, the Casekoo case may be the one for you. It comes in three different colours - black, crystal clear and pacific blue, and it offers you military-grade protection, as well as four different built-in corner shockproof airbags and a soft TPU bumper! It's incredibly effective at preventing scratches and absorbing impact if dropped.
What we love about this case is that whilst it offers a cute and simple design, the case itself is clear - ideal for showing off your iPhone's colours. It's also very lightweight and durable, offering raised lips around the camera which helps prevent the lens from any damage or scratches.
Do I need an iPhone case?
