Building on their popular iPhone 11 model, Apple have introduced the iPhone 12 with a number of upgrades including the Apple A14 chip, a 6.1 inch OLED display with ceramic shield, improvements to the camera and 5G connectivity.
Even though the iPhone 12 has been designed to be even more durable than it’s predecessor, you’ll still want to keep your new investment protected. With that in mind, we’ve shortlisted the best cases and covers that will help to keep your iPhone 12 looking amazing.
