As we continue our look at iPhone 6S cases, we’re turning our attention to the ever-popular bumper cases. These cases offer minimal bulk, yet still offer good protection (and sometimes some useful features too). Here are our five top choices, good for both the iPhone 6S and the original iPhone 6.
5. Olixar FlexiFrame Case
Hot Pink, Black / Grey, Blue, Green
The Olixar FlexiFrame is a great low-cost option, coming in multiple bright colours (and one more reserved grey option) that really make your iPhone pop. The case is light and flexible, making it easy to install, but still provides good drop protection without affecting usability. The case has a textured grip too, which makes it easier to hold and prevents drops in the first place. All in all, it’s a solid first choice, especially if you don’t want to spend a lot to get an iPhone 6S bumper.
4. Spigen Tough Armor Volt Wireless Charging Case
The special ability of this case is that it adds convenient wireless charging to the iPhone 6 and 6S. This is accomplished through a slim coil installed into the case, which connects to your iPhone’s Lightning port to provide power. The wireless charging capabilities ensure you can use your iPhone with a wide range of Qi charging pads, and means you never have to deal with the hassle of plugging and unplugging ever again. The case is protective too, with strong armour against drops and scratches to keep your phone safe.
3. Prodigee Show Dual-Layered Designer Case
Blossom, Koi, Rosette, Paradise, Meadow
This delightful series of cases showcases the work of talented designers, with beautiful illustrations featuring flowers, plants and wildlife. The Prodigee Show cases include a dual-layer construction too, protecting the iPhone inside against drops or scratches with aplomb. The nice thing about these cases is that if you don’t like one design, there are four others to choose from, so you should be able to find at least one that you really like!
2. Rhino Shield Crash Guard Bumper Case
The Rhino Shield is our heavy-duty option, designed to protect your iPhone even from heavy drops and knocks. The bumper is made of a lattice of hexagons, which are more shock absorbent than a more naive design. The phone adds just 2.5mm t0o the thickness of your phone, but allows the phone to survive drops from a height of 20 feet (around 7 metres). Not bad at all, eh?
1. Spigen Neo Hybrid Ex Bumper
Rose Gold, Champagne Gold, Electric Blue, Shimmery White
Our final case is the perfect companion to the iPhone 6S, as it’s available in Rose Gold and Champagne Gold colourways that match the iPhone precisely. The case is great for any iPhone 6 though, thanks to its blend of transparent body and perfectly-fitted design. The case includes a 1.2mm bezel around the display to prevent damage, which helps obviate the need for an iPhone 6S screen protector too.
