Another month, another couple hundred iPhone 5 cases. It’s hard to keep track of them all, which is why our monthly column returns with five of the best new arrivals!
5. Coloured Lifeproof Cases for iPhone 5
The LifeProof case is one of the our most well respected cases, and now a whole dimension has been unleashed – with the release of three new colours! Now, you’ll be able to get the LifeProof case in lime, cyan or magenta. That’ll add a healthy splash of colour to the near-inpenetrable protective abilities of this top-notch premium case.
4. iKit NuCharge Battery Case for iPhone 5
The arrival of a new dock connector for the iPhone 5 added a few more complications for case makers, but now we’re seeing the fruits of their labour. One of these is the iKit NuCharge iPhone 5 Battery Case, which is one of the first battery cases to be approved for Apple for use with the new iPhone. The case provides an extra 1900 mAh of battery power in a relatively slim case, more than doubling your iPhone’s battery life. The case will also protect your iPhone and add a handy kickstand for watching movies and playing games.
3. Krusell PrintCover Case for iPhone 5
Krusell are well known for their professional designs, but now they’re branching out into more stylish and artsy designs for their slim-fit, high-protection iPhone 5 cases. The PrintCover Case comes in two flavours for now – Green Inca and Pink Stripe. Both cases stand out from the sea of plain iPhone accessories, with a unique geometric style. The cases also help to protect your iPhone, with a raised lip to prevent the screen from damage and a hard plastic shell to protect against knocks and scratches.
2. Incipio Frequency Case for iPhone 5
The Incipio Frequency Case is, in my opinion, the best looking of the cases featured here today with a neat musical design. As well as looking cool, the design of the case also increases ventilation and provides a nice texture for your hand to grip. It’s a sexy and sensible case that’ll definitely impress. It’s also available in black and royal purple, in case teal isn’t to your taste.
1. Spigen Slim Armor Case for iPhone 5
The Slim Armour series has been one of our best-selling cases for the Galaxy S4, and now the series has arrived for the iPhone 5 as well. The case really ticks all the boxes: it’s slim, it adds grip, it provides impressive protection and it looks fantastic. The case is made from TPU, with a polycarbonate midsection for added durability and rigidity. The case really matches the clean lines and industrial style of the iPhone 5 itself, and if I had an iPhone 5 this would be the case I’d use to protect it.
Conclusion
So there we have it – five new cases for the iPhone 5, brand new for August. I hope you find the selections useful!
