The 3GS still remains popular as it’s great for those who want an iPhone without the higher price tag. It’s got a great curved style meaning there’s a wide, original variety of cases for the 3GS – here’s three of my favourite:
Otterbox Defender Series
Otterbox Defender Series
The Otterbox Defender Series is one of the most protective iPhone 3GS cases available.
Offering three layers of protection the Defender is a great case for those who work outdoors or spend a lot of times outdoors because no matter how many times you drop your phone, the Otterbox will stop it being damaged.
The first layer of this Otterbox case is a clear membrane which acts as a screen protector for the display of your 3GS. The back and sides of our 3GS are then protected by layer two: a hi-impact polycarbonate skeleton. This protects from bumps and drops with the help of the third and final layer; a silicon skin, which also helps to absorb shocks.
What makes Otterbox cases extra special is that the ports of your phone are protected by silicone plug; this means that they’re always protected but they’re easy to get to when you need them.
This Otterbox case also comes complete with a ClipStand holster so it’s easy to carry around on your bag or belt buckle.
InvisibleSHIELD Full Body Protector
InvisibleSHIELD Full Body Protector
The second 3GS case is great for those who want scratch protection without taking away from the style of the handset itself – it’s the InvisibleSHIELD Full Body protector.
What’s great about InvsibleSHIELD products is that the Full Body protectors are specially made for each handset to provide the perfect fit and best scratch protection possible.
The film used by InvisibleSHIELD has its origins in the US Military where it was used to protect the edges of helicopter blades from wear and tear. Therefore you know it’s of the highest quality and provides better scratch protection than any of the other iPhone 3GS accessories available.
Using a Full Body protector means you can still access all the ports and features of your 3GS, so it remains fully functioning all the time. The film is simple and easy to apply and remove; plus you can also use a 3GS cover with the full body protector for ultimate protection and added individuality.
Case-Mate ID Case
Case Mate ID Case
The final case in my favourite three comes from accessory giants Case Mate. The ID case is a sleek yet multi-functional case which allows you to carry around 2 cards with you. This is great for if you’re just popping to the shops as it saves you having to take a bag.
Only 2.5mm thicker than Case Mate’s Barely There case, the ID case has style at its heart as well as functionality, making it one of the best cases for iPhone.
Made to fit your 3GS snugly, the ID case has all the cut-outs needed for the ports and features of your phone. Therefore it remains fully functional at all times and has that little extra function thanks to the card holder.
However, if you have got cards in the holder, the camera will be covered so you’ll have to remove them to use the camera. That’s a small price to pay for the extra functionality of a case though.
So that’s my top three. Did I miss any cases out? Let me know in the comments or via the usual channels what would be your top 3!
