Top 10 iPhone Cases

Last July we published a list of the top 10 iPhone 3GS Cases, but that was 6 months ago and in the mobile phone world, 6 months is a long time. The iPhone is more popular than ever and is now available on 3 of the biggest UK mobile networks. Since the iPhone 3GS was launched we’ve released more cases for the iPhone than we have for any other phone, so I thought it was time to take a look and see how things have changed and find out which are the current top 10 iPhone cases.

The cases listed below are our top selling iPhone cases and are ranked based on their popularity over the last 6 months.

1. iPhone Charging Leather Case

Not only does this case protect your iPhone, it can charge your phone and give you up to 4 hours more talk time or 36 hours more music playback. Just slide your iPhone  into the case and flick the switch to start charging. The case can be charged easily using a standard Mini USB cable in around 2 hours.

2. iPhone Carry Pouch

The iPhone Leather Carry pouch covers all of the iPhone and has a fold over flap with a magnetic fastening to keep it in place. The rear of the case has a stitched belt loop, which means that the case can be attached to a belt/bag strap for added security. The case has a cut out on the bottom that makes it easier for you to push your iPhone out.

3. Silicone Case Twin Pack for iPhone

As the name suggests, Silicone Cases are made from a soft flexible Silicone gel that covers almost all of your iPhone. The only part left exposed is the screen, so you’ll need to use an iPhone screen protector to prevent scratches. Silicone cases add very little to your phone in the way of bulk or weight, and are a great way to protect your iPhone against minor knocks and scrapes.

4. Seidio iPhone Innocase II Surface

Innocase II are made of two sleeves that slide onto the top and bottom of your iPhone and lock together. This makes it almost impossible for the cover to come off your phone when you drop it. Innocase II Surface doesn’t cover the screen of your phone though, so I’d recommend using a iPhone screen protector to prevent it getting scratched.

5. Beyza iPhone Vertical Leather Case

Beyza cases are slim, leather pockets for your iPhone that add very little bulk to your phone. They’re made from genuine leather and have a soft felt lining that cleans your iPhone everytime you slide it in and out. As they have quite a neat fit to your phone, the Beyza cases have a cut out at the base that helps you to push your phone out of the case. It’s designed to be carried in your bag or pocket and doesn’t have a belt clip or belt loop.

6. Piel Frama Pull Case For Apple iPhone

Slim leather pockets are proving to be extremely popular for the iPhone. The Piel Frama Pull Case is similar to the Beyza case, but has a built in fabric pull tab that makes getting your phone out of the case quick and easy. Each Piel Frama case is hand made from top quality leather.

7. iPhone Orion Case by Krusell

The Orion Case is a leather, book style case that has a moulded holder for your iPhone.  What makes this case unique, is that the moulded holder has a built in kick stand and can be used to prop your phone up at the perfect angle for watching videos. On the inside of the case is a pocket for bank and credit cards.

8. Case-Mate Barely There for iPhone – Chrome

The Barely There case is a protective back cover and a screen protector for your iPhone. It has a high gloss chrome finish that will really make your phone stand out. Cut outs on the case let you use the camera, headphones and charger without having to remove it from the case, and to make sure that everyone knows you’ve got an iPhone, the Apple logo is also exposed.

9. Knomo Sleeve For iPhone

Knomo are a designer brand who are well known for their high quality laptop bags. The Knomo Sleeve for the iPhone is just as luxurious and is a great, slim case to protect your iPhone. Each case is hand crafted from soft full grain leather and has a velveteen lining that helps to keep your phone clean and free from fingerprints.

10. SwitchEasy Capsule Rebel Case for iPhone – Serpent

The SwitchEasy Rebel Case is available in a range of colours and consists of 2 parts, a tough silicon skin to prevent scratches and a polycarbonate ‘exoskeleton’ that protects your phone agains knocks and scrapes.  Included with each of the Rebel cases are 2 screen protectors, a stand that supports your phone in landscape mode for watching videos, and adapter for the Apple Universal Dock that lets you sync & charge without removing the case, a rubber dock connector cover and a cleaning cloth.  The Rebel Case was highly recommended in a recent review by iLounge.
