How do we extend the life of a smartphone? The most obvious answer: a protective case does not always correctly solve the task assigned to it. It is enough to see reviews of various exotic cases to understand that chaos reigns in this area. Cases are turning from a means of protection into a means of self-expression, losing their main function - to protect your device and increase the comfort of its use.

Even those accessories, whose main task is to surprise with their originality, in practice turn out to be not suitable for use - sometimes they are inconvenient, and sometimes they resemble equipment for photography, beautiful in the studio, but useless in everyday life.

The imagination of designers is almost limitless, but some cases would be better off remaining prototypes “on paper.” We have collected several examples of extraordinary cases, and selected for each of them a real replacement from our range, ready for use.


The first representative of the “weird world of cases”, turning your iPhone into something like a Leica camera. What is most surprising, in addition to the general external similarity, you can find fake control buttons on the case, a protruding lens cover and even a viewfinder slot.

But you can attach an attached lens attachment to the camera slot, thereby depriving the phantasmagoric design of the case of its resemblance to a camera.

If you like the premium materials from which Leica cameras are made, it is better to choose a case for iPhone 6/6S, 7/8, iPhone X, XS and XR.


This is a protective case for modern iPhones made of ultra-strong aramid fiber. Built-in plates do not interfere wireless charging, and the unique material emphasizes its originality.

No unnecessary elements, strong and reliable design, stylish appearance- this is much better than the “Leica case” that almost doubles the size of the iPhone.

Next representative: submarine case!


This “aluminum submarine” ensures the safety of diving with a smartphone to a depth of 100 meters, with shock-absorbing and waterproof rubberized inserts.

All that remains is to find the reason why you might even need a smartphone at such a depth - mobile connection is reliably drowned out by the water column, and to photograph underwater beauty at such a depth you need at least a deep-sea flashlight and appropriate optics.

If you need water protection without extremes, choose a waterproof case


It is made of a material that is pleasant to the touch and does not slip in your hands, which will avoid unwanted falls. All necessary functions and buttons remain available for use - this is a good choice for the beach, fishing and for any type of water recreation. It will save you from water in the bathroom, it is not afraid of heavy rain and a sudden attack from a water pistol - this is much more useful than protection for the sake of protection deep under water.


You can easily find videos of a Lego case being dropped from incredible heights. Well, the shock-absorbing properties of the plastic and the spectacular “self-disassembly” of the case will not leave anyone indifferent, but the other disadvantages overshadow all the dubious advantages.

It is angular, smooth edges slide, and even modifications where the volumetric connecting elements of the constructor only cover back smartphones leave no chance for it convenient use. Try putting a Lego structure in your pocket and then taking it out several times - there will simply be no questions about the “practicality” of such a case, albeit a bright one. Perhaps it a good option for children, but not for daily use.

For reliable protection it is better to use


Like Lego, it is colored in bright and rich colors, but will easily protect your iPhone from chips, dents, scratches, vibration, dirt, dust and rain. It is made of heavy-duty polycarbonate, coated in shock-absorbing silicone, fits comfortably in the hand - it is almost impossible to drop it.

The accessory will absorb the main impact force during a fall. The display is also protected, and the case was tested in accordance with the US Department of Defense standard 810F.


The second option for reliable protection is .



The case is firmly attached to the smartphone using steel bolts and a hex key that come included, and a metal leg on the back of the case allows it to be used as a stand. Much more reliable than Lego!

Even if you are delighted with soft and pleasant-to-touch cases, you should not let this passion turn your smartphone into an unprecedented winter beast. List weak sides This solution can take a very long time: faux fur quickly wears out, gets dirty easily and will not withstand any active use, even with careful storage and transportation.

Better pay attention to.


It's made from a combination of leatherette, a durable polycarbonate frame, and a special SensArray layer that allows you to answer or reject incoming calls without opening the lid. The case provides easy access to the elements iPhone interface And full protection along with a stylish appearance.

Another alien from the program “ crazy hands” is a hot glue cover. Even if we assume that creating such a “case” is a truly exciting activity, it is still difficult to recommend it for use in practice. It's not neat, it's not very elegant, it doesn't last, and it's definitely not very reliable.

It is made of plastic, which indicates its durability and light weight. The main thing is that this material is pleasant to the touch and does not slip. The special surface does not allow leaving streaks and fingerprints. If desired, the pattern can be applied on top of such a cover with a glue gun, using it as a reliable frame.


All-metal cases are very strong, that's for sure. But the practicality of using them in winter is a big question - after all, as soon as you forget your gloves, answering a call becomes an insurmountable obstacle in severe frost. It is not without reason that manufacturers of practical cases use metal only as a frame, adding silicone, polycarbonate or other materials to the back and side surfaces.

If you need protection without frostbitten hands, choose a cover like .



It not only has waterproof properties, but also protects the device from dirt or snow, and saves the screen and body from impacts on a hard surface. The case meets IP-68 and MIL STD 810F-516 standards, can withstand drops of up to 2 meters and is equipped with screen and camera lens protection. This is much more important than the “metallic shine” of impressive-looking steel cases.

The second protected option is a case.


The hybrid design of the accessory provides high-quality protection for the communicator during mechanical influences. The inner layer of microfiber protects the surface of the phone from scratches and abrasions.

Even if horror is your favorite movie genre, you should stay away from cringe-inducing cases at any time except Halloween. Surely your friends will appreciate the original design, which refers to the latest Stephen King book or your worst nightmares, but those around you will also be able to see such a case. A scary (and sometimes embossed) picture can simply frighten children, and not in every office such a case will look acceptable on the desktop.

If you want to highlight your love for books and reading, choose a stylish case


It is made of genuine leather, and the compartments on the inside of the accessory allow you to store bank cards, business cards and money. It can also be used as a stand for comfortable viewing of videos or Internet surfing.

The sophisticated leather binding with gold lettering will allow others to freely interpret the name, and overall it is a stylish and expensive accessory that is pleasant to look at and comfortable to use.

We have listed only a few of the cases that are not very suitable for everyday life. You can continue endlessly - these are outlandish edible cases and numerous cases, carrying your gadget in which it can be damaged or dirty. Poorly painted plastic can stain the body of your smartphone, and loose edges of the case increase the chances of grains of sand getting between the body and the case.

To avoid these risks, choose high-quality cases from proven materials. For example, for the iPhone X/XS, you can choose one made of durable polypropylene and high-quality fabric.


For flagships on Android, I can recommend - for Samsung Note8.

The base of the case is a plastic lining that will protect back panel and the sides of the smartphone from shocks and chips. The thick front part of the case will protect your smartphone screen from scratches, dust and dirt.


Choose and let your gadgets last a long time! And it’s better to just admire the outlandish cases, as if they came straight from the pages of a science fiction book, on the Internet.

Case– one of the most popular and diverse types of accessories. Even the most ardent fans of the true appearance of the iPhone admit that only a protective case can protect the smartphone from scratches and damage. Only the cover can change the look mobile device beyond recognition, give it individuality and emphasize the good taste of its owner.

Manufacturers of iPhone cases set themselves several goals: to create an unusual, convenient and stylish product that will make the process of using a smartphone safe and comfortable. Today we will try to look at all kinds of cases produced for the iPhone.

Types of iPhone cases

Case- the simplest and most common type. The case-case is a kind of pouch without slots for connectors. The only drawback of this design is the possible inconvenience when removing the smartphone from the case. A prime example of a case-case is the Moshi SenseCover.

Case with a ponytail implies the presence of a small strap at the end of the case, which makes it easier to remove the smartphone from the case.

Case-pouch It has a cord at the end that closes the cover by pulling it together. Usually the lace is of a length that is comfortable for wearing on your hand. There are also models of pouches that close with a zipper. The fastening principle depends on the user's preferences. The cord on the wrist allows you to keep the case with you at all times, the zipper is more practical and eliminates the possibility of accidentally opening the case (for example, in a bag).

Folder case involves packing the smartphone in a horizontal position by lifting the lid. Modern models of folder cases are equipped with built-in magnetic clasps that securely fix the smartphone inside. Such models have special fasteners that allow you to attach the cases to a belt or belt.

Folding cases differ from cases in that they are conventionally divided into two halves. The top one hinges like a lid, providing fast access to the touch surface of the iPhone. Flip cases usually have cutouts for the main connectors of the smartphone, giving users the opportunity to connect headphones/headsets or charge the smartphone without removing the case. At the same time, such a case is convenient to put in a bag - the hard cover will reliably protect the phone from possible damage.

Some flip cover covers have special slots to allow you to access certain information, such as the current time, SMS messages or undistracted calls. Other models even have slots for answering calls. The disadvantages of clamshells include the only clasp in the middle of the lid. Magnetic fasteners sometimes get on the touch part of the screen and leave marks on it, and the slots provide access to dust and other small particles that contaminate not only the screen, but also the phone connectors.

Folding phones with internal pockets have caused a mixed response among the user audience. A number of pockets are located on the inside of the case and open edges can cause damage to the tablet screen. It’s not for nothing that most manufacturers line the inside of their cases with microfiber and other soft materials. On the other hand, such models are suitable for business people and those who prefer to keep everything with them (credit cards, a small amount of unforeseen expenses, perhaps documents) - it is for such cases that wallet cases were invented.

When purchasing clamshell cases, you should pay special attention to the internal mounts of your smartphone. A frame around the entire body of the device is considered ideal, which not only securely fixes the phone in the case and protects its ends from scratches.

Case-holster has a hard case with a clasp. A special feature of this model is its versatility. The holster case can be even larger than the phone - the interior does not damage the smartphone, and the clasp on the lid securely fixes the device inside. There are many fastening options for this type of case, ranging from Velcro to magnets. To use a “holster” type case, you must be prepared for the fact that your smartphone will have to be constantly taken out. In this case, the case does not complement the smartphone, but becomes an outer shell and protection iPhone cases. True, there are currently models with slots that provide access to smartphone connectors.

Bumper– a type of case that protects only the sides of the smartphone or the sides and the back. The phone screen remains unprotected, even though the edges of the case protrude above the screen. Due to its design, the bumper will protect the screen of a smartphone, which is placed on a flat surface with the screen facing down. At the same time, many manufacturers claim that the smartphone will remain intact even if dropped on a concrete floor. Many people prefer to use a bumper complete with protective film. Bumpers are the most innovative model among modern cases, but also the most controversial. It can be classified as “try it, then buy it.”

Case-cover (overlay) Protects the back and sides of your phone. It is a cover that literally becomes a second skin for your smartphone. Covers can be hard or soft, depending on the material used. The advantages of this model include the thinness and visual invisibility of the case on the phone. Cover covers come in a wide variety of colors and style options. In addition, the linings have good shockproof properties. To ensure maximum iPhone protection To protect against mechanical damage, it is recommended to use a cover case together with a protective film.

Sports covers created specifically for people leading an active lifestyle. They are made from moisture-resistant durable materials that can withstand active physical activity. Sports cases are equipped with special fasteners that allow you to fix the case on your arms, legs, chest and even head. It is known that the iPhone has dozens of sports applications that allow you to optimize running and cycling training, skiing, fitness and other sports training. It is to ensure the safety of the smartphone under fitness conditions that sports cases were invented. Their only drawback is their nondescript appearance.

Extreme cases live up to their name. They are created for extreme pastime. Such cases can withstand extraordinary loads: the smartphone can be immersed in water, the case can withstand enormous loads and can withstand the penetration of moisture, dirt and sand. The peculiarity of such models is their unique appearance and difficult access to the functionality of the gadget.

Case materials

For each of the models presented above, there are many material options. Some are practical to use, others are of an image nature, and others are attractive due to their unique properties.

Leather Case. Currently, cases are produced from natural and synthetic leather (imitation leather). Moreover, the latter’s quality sometimes surpasses even “ natural product" Leather cases perfectly protect your smartphone from moisture and external damage (scratches and impacts), and the durability and elasticity of the material are time-tested. A respectable appearance and a variety of stylistic solutions make leather cases attractive to a wide consumer audience. Manufacturers have learned to combine different materials, create amazing colors and patterns, as well as apply decorative decorations and graphic elements.

Silicone cases pleasant to the touch, fit tightly to the smartphone, varied in patterns and colors, thanks to the dense silicone used in production. The disadvantages of this material include the fact that silicone attracts dust and is subject to stretching and, as a result, rupture. At the same time, silicone cases are quite inexpensive in price and practically do not increase weight and dimensions smartphone.

Fabric cover It is also budget-friendly in price and has a variety of implementation options. Manufacturers use all kinds of fabrics, from cotton to felt. In addition to various bases, a huge list of decorative elements is used in the manufacture of fabric covers: beads, leather scraps, embroidery, buttons, sequins, beads, lace, sparkles, etc. Those who prefer this material often prefer to have several fabric covers in order to choose a style to suit their mood and events. Fabric covers are easy to produce and process, which is why handmade lovers prefer this material for their creative research and creating unique covers.

Wooden cases belong to the category of environmentally friendly materials; bamboo is most often used in their production. They are quite lightweight, providing the device reliable protection and give their owner the warmth of real wood. Manufacturers offer thousands of engraving options on cases and several color options. The cost of bamboo covers is higher than that of analogues. But the presentable appearance and original material justifies the cost.

Modern plastic covers made from high-tech materials such as polycarbonate and polyurethane. Plastic covers are resistant to wear, deformation and abrasions. Due to the fact that plastic cases are selected exactly to the size of the smartphone, they practically do not increase the size of the iPhone and securely fix it inside the case. It is worth noting that of all types of cases, plastic ones have the most daring and wide-ranging design solutions. Drawing technologies allow you to create any image and decorate your smartphone with unusual details. Users who are looking for something unusual should pay attention to photo cases.

Metal cases can be called brutal. They are quite massive, but reliably protect back cover and ends from damage and scratches. The cost of metal cases falls into the “above average” category. This solution is suitable for people with extraordinary tastes and views who want to create real iron armor for their smartphone. An example of a metal case is the aluminum accessory KLOQE.

Branded cases specifically allocated to a separate category. These are cases that smartphone manufacturers produce as an ideal addition to their product. They can be made from a combined material and fit perfectly to the size of the device - after all, who better than the manufacturer knows the dimensions and features of his product.

Conclusions: When choosing a case for your iPhone, you need to focus on ease of use, stylistic preferences and tactile sensations. A good case emphasizes the individual characteristics of its owner, reliably protects the smartphone from damage and helps to complement the image created by Apple designers.

Behind Lately on McRadar we talked about a wide variety of iPhone cases for all occasions. We decided to collect the best of them in one digest - so that you can always keep the most interesting options at hand.

Mous - a case for those who constantly forget their headphones

On the back Mous case two unusual elements. The first is a compartment for storing standard EarPods, and the second is a reel with which the headphones can be hidden and removed.

Radius - minimalist aluminum case for iPhone

Radius is a case that looks like a metal frame, almost invisible from the front. The case is available in versions for iPhone 5, 5S, 6 and 6 Plus. All versions look identical: a frame that is attached to the back in a cross pattern, with a small seal near the camera. The thickness of the case is just enough so that if it falls, all elements, including the volume buttons, are protected. Looks very cool.

Aquatik - waterproof case for iPhone 6 with Touch ID support

Aquatik for iPhone 6 is the most modern case from Lunatik, which not only looks good, but also protects against most damage.

Little Pocket Book - luxury case for iPhone 6

There are two reasons why we buy a smartphone case. The first is for protection, when the gadget is still new, and the desire not to harm it overpowers the desire to use the device without restrictions. The second is when the case becomes not a means of protection, but a luxury item, adding a couple of style points to the owner. Little Pocket Book is such a case.

Leather Wallet Case - leather case for iPhone 6 from Mujjo

Among all the variety of materials for cases, leather looks the most beautiful. Especially if the case itself is made filigree and thought out to the smallest details. The Leather Wallet Case from Mujjo is just such a case that will accommodate not only your iPhone, but also a couple of bank cards with cash.

There are hundreds of iPhone cases on the market, and at least 80% of users put them on their gadgets. But are they really useful or harmless for a gadget dear to your heart and wallet?

The idea of ​​writing this article arose after I myself bought a not-so-cheap aluminum case on a Chinese website for a long trip. The design looked very reliable. The phone was placed in a silicone bumper, after which it was twisted with aluminum plates on the front and back sides. The kit even included glass glued to the front plate, and the seller promised water resistance. In general, water resistance was indeed present, but no more than in case something spills on the table where the phone will lie, and it ends up in a puddle 2-3 mm deep. I put on the cover, the girl and I laughed that they could now drive nails in, and we hit the road.

Everything was fine on the plane, the case lay well on the table, did not slip or fall, and I was calm that if a glass of drink spilled during turbulence, I would not have to hastily wipe the phone. So 10 hours of flight passed, and after that the problems began...

During the flight, the phone was in airplane mode and therefore hardly used up its resources. When airplane mode was disabled and use began cellular network and Wi-Fi, the phone began to drain quickly. I thought that this was due to a fairly active viewing of the city map and several phone calls, but having reached the hotel a little over an hour later and having dropped the phone to 60% during this time, I realized that this was not the case.


After charging the phone, I turned off all updates and used it for the next day. I took photographs, used maps, made calls. At the same time, I connected the phone to an external battery twice a day. In the evening I noticed that the Wi-Fi in the room was working very poorly, and in the morning, once again noticing that the phone had warmed up and was discharged by 40% overnight, I decided to remove the case. I won’t lie, I was surprised when, after removing the case, my phone began to receive Wi-Fi perfectly, stopped heating, and the battery lasted for the whole day without recharging.

It turns out that the case greatly reduced the level of signal reception, which in turn led to increased network searching and heating of the device, and the dense silicone filling of the case, preventing heat dissipation, additionally overheated the phone. Hence the result with poor reception, overheating and rapid discharge. I never used this case again, and it is still collecting dust on the far shelf.

And now, after the background and real-life example, we can talk about specific types of cases, as well as the pros and cons of each of them.

Covers for the back panel of the phone are probably the most widespread and popular protection options for the phone case. Such cases cover the back wall of the device and the side edges, having slots in the places of connectors, buttons, camera and flash. To the undoubted advantages of this type This includes ease of installation, many options on the market and various modifications. Even Apple itself has released its own version of such a case, while the buyer is given a choice of two options for case materials and many colors.


The back panel overlay has many modifications depending on the specific tasks and goals of the user. Depending on the specified tasks, they can be divided into several types:
  • Simple pad (to protect the body)
  • Design solutions (various bunnies, ears, supermen, etc.)
  • Overlays with built-in stand
  • Pads with built-in battery
  • Overlays with additional compartments
  • Overlays with a hinged lid covering the screen

If the first two options have only a practical and emotional meaning, protecting the surface or delighting the owner with new colors and shapes, then the rest can really help their owner.

Many of those who actively use their phone during the day complain about the lack of battery power. For these purposes, external batteries and cases with a built-in battery have been invented. Quite a convenient option. Of course, it greatly thickens the phone and cannot allow the phone to be fully charged 3-5 times, as its external counterpart does, but nevertheless, this method of preserving energy reserves for the phone has admirers, since there is no need to pull wires from Power Bank. By the way, Apple also has its own proposals here, although they appeared recently.


Cases with a flip stand can help those who often watch videos on their phone, or they can simply place the phone on their desk without using a stationary stand. And if the “clothes” for the phone have additional pockets, then you can easily place a couple of bills in them, bank card or a travel card, or a few pieces of paper with notes.

The disadvantages of cover-covers in general include the fact that you will always have to hold a thicker device in your hands, and not everyone likes this. But many people put on thin cases precisely for the sake of tactile sensations with minimal changes in dimensions. As for the dimensions, the maximum increase is, of course, provided by models with a built-in battery, stand, or external compartments, as well as some designer cases.



Another disadvantage is the accumulation of dust and small particles between the case and the phone, which can scratch the back of the phone, as well as “stretching” of the case, which occurs during use on some models and leads to the phone starting to dangle. And if the first can be dealt with by periodic cleaning, then to deal with the second you will have to change the cover.

Bumper

Bumpers are intermediate option between the cover and the absence of a case at all, but it will only save if the phone falls on the side edge. There are models with slightly protruding frames at the front and back, which in turn, although not much, increases the level of protection. And even here Apple offers its own options.


The massive appearance of this type of protection for the phone is connected precisely with Apple, namely with the release, which had problems with reception at a certain position of the hand on the case. The company released a bumper in order to reduce the impact on the antenna when gripping the phone “incorrectly,” but users loved it, and many bought it for future generations of the phone, in which the problem with the antenna had already been fixed.

Bumpers make minimal changes to the design of the phone, but are not suitable for all models. The protection is minimal and only protects against a certain type of impact. Silicone bumpers absorb shock, while hard metal bumpers redistribute it and reduce the level of deformation of the phone body.

The disadvantages of bumpers include, most likely, only the lack of a sufficiently serious level of protection when the dimensions increase, but they still still occupy their specific niche and are in demand among buyers.

Case, envelope, pocket

Recently, the popularity of such pockets for the phone has somehow been falling, and its peak occurred during the release of the first modern phones With touch screens, namely for 2008-2011.


The advantages of this design include comprehensive protection of the phone, since almost 100% of the surface of the case is covered. At the same time, options with a magnetic clasp are considered more reliable, which prevents the phone from falling out, especially in leather cases that have stretched a little over time. As a rule, the inside of such a case is covered with a soft layer that prevents scratches on the case.

The disadvantages of cases are quite obvious, and first of all, they include the fact that the phone will have to be taken out to use, and the case itself must be put away somewhere, which makes it difficult to use “on the go” and when your hands are full.

Holster

This type of case was popular even earlier than cases, during the push-button phones, but nevertheless, even now you can meet its fans.


The advantages of the holster include the convenience of removing the phone from it and the fact that it is always at hand. But these days there are already quite a lot of disadvantages. The most important of them is that such a holster can cause inconvenience in some movements due to the increased size of the phone. Therefore, the peak of their popularity occurred in 2000-2008, when manufacturers, on the contrary, sought to offer smaller and smaller models of devices. Another disadvantage is that carrying an expensive phone in such a holster is unsafe. In the end, getting it out of there will not be difficult not only for the owner, but also for any pickpocket.

Sports case

It may not be entirely correct to consider sports case exactly as a case, since it is not worn every day, but is more of a sports accessory, but nevertheless it is still a case.


The accessory is unlikely to arouse the interest of people far from sports. But it is very suitable for lovers of running, cycling and other active sports, as it allows you to continue listening to music and not miss important calls, while leaving your hands free and not dangling in the pocket of loose sports shorts.

Covers can be completely sealed or with ventilation, but these are features for different types of use. It is quite difficult to name the disadvantages of such a case, since it is not intended for daily use at home, so we will consider it ideal assistant in various types of sports. And, of course, it can be used for housework, also keeping your hands free.

Extreme case

This type of cover is something between regular daily and sports options. They are intended for those who like to spend their free time away from civilization, and therefore are often equipped with solar panels, waterproof inserts, shockproof pads, a compass and other attributes of “camping life.”


There are impressively sized cases that are definitely not afraid of any falls, and there are also lightweight options that still have a serious level of protection. Actually, the article began with a story about such a lightweight, but still strong case.

The advantages of such “armor” are quite obvious: it provides protection from falls, protection from moisture, and additional functions, built into the case (compass, solar battery, opener), but the disadvantages are not visible at first glance. Perhaps I was just unlucky and giving a thousand rubles to the Chinese was not a guarantee of receiving a quality product, but in any case, it is obvious that physics cannot be fooled and an additional thick layer of rubber/plastic/metal clearly will not improve the quality of signal reception and will not be able to maintain it at the proper level heat sink from the device.

As a conclusion

Of course, many people say “I will never wear a cover, it’s ugly,” but practice shows the opposite. The vast majority of users expensive phones enjoys protection for them, and the industry flourishes. The argument “the company invented it” doesn’t even work here good design and it’s not right to hide it,” since all companies that produce phones offer their own versions of cases for them. Therefore, buying or refusing a case is a compromise between the desire to protect the phone and a matter of taste. Personally, I use the thinnest case possible for my iPhone 6s Space Gray. Not for protection, I just like the fact that the phone is 0.3mm thicker, has a certain roughness on the back and is darker. I don’t see any problems in using the case if you like it. In the end, this is the introduction of design elements that each specific user likes, and a kind of tuning of the phone.
