\"Best<\/a><\/p>\n

The iPhone 3G<\/a> and iPhone 3GS<\/a> are still the most desirable touch screen handsets available and despite all their competition the iPhone is still seen as the ‘must have’ phone. If you’ve already got one, then you’re going to want to keep it safe from knocks, drops and scrapes. A case is the best way to do this, but with such a wide range of cases<\/a>, skins<\/a>, crystal cases<\/a> and silicone cases<\/a> available choosing the right one can be quite tough, so I’ve been through all of the cases that we sell and here are our top 10 cases for the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

1. Piel Frama Case for iPhone 3G & 3GS<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

This case is easily our most popular Leather Case for the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS. \u00a0It is hand made from premium leather and designed specifically for the iPhone. \u00a0As well as protecting your phone, the Piel Frama case has storage space for Bank\/Credit cards and cut outs that allow you to use your headphones and charger while your iPhone is in the case. A detachable belt clip lets you chose between carrying it in you pocket\/bag and your belt. Piel Frama also produce a Windscreen holder that can hold your iPhone securely in the car without having to remove it from the case.<\/p>\n

2. iPhone 3GS Cleaning Sleeve<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a universal carry pouch that has been designed specifically for touchscreen devices. It has a soft microfibre lining that cleans away smudges and fingerprints every time you put your iPhone in or take it out. Your headphone socket remains accessible so you can still listen to your music while its in the pouch. The Phone Cleaning Sleeve is available in Pink, Black, Purple and Brown. The design of the Pouch is plain on one side and chequered on the other.<\/p>\n

3. <\/strong>Alu-Leather Case for iPhone 3G & iPhone 3GS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Alu-Leather cases are made from high quality leather and aircraft grade aluminium to provide a tough case that looks great. \u00a0The case is specifically made for the Apple iPhone and has cut outs on the back for the camera. The fold down cover on the case has space for 2 bank cards, and has an inner layer of aluminium to protect your screen against impact and crush damage. No other leather case can offer this much protection for your screen.<\/p>\n

4. iPhone 3GS & iPhone 3G Orbit Flex Case by Krusell<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Krusell make some great cases, and the Orbit Flex range is one of their most popular. \u00a0They are designed specifically for touchscreen phones and allow quick and easy access to your phone with out adding any unneccesary bulk. \u00a0They have a soft touch lining that helps keep your screen clean while its in the case. All Krusell cases work with the Multidapt range of clips and mounts so you can find the right mounting option for your phone.<\/p>\n

5. SwitchEasy Capsule Rebel Case for iPhone 3GS & iPhone 3G<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The SwitchEasy<\/a> 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. \u00a0Included 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. \u00a0The Rebel Case was highly recommended in a recent review by iLounge<\/a>.<\/p>\n

6. <\/strong>Bugatti Leather Case for iPhone 3G & 3GS<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Bugatti make a range of stylish leather pouches, most of them are universal and will work with most phones. \u00a0This one though is made specifically for the iPhone. \u00a0It’s a strong, rigid leather case that you slide your phone into. The top of the case remains open and cut outs on the sides make it easy to grip your phone and remove it. \u00a0The Bugatti logo is embossed on the rear of the cover, so showing off your designer case won’t be a problem. \u00a0The case doesn’t cover the screen though, so if you want to protect it, you’ll need to invest in an iPhone 3G screen protector<\/a> or an InvisibleSHIELD.<\/p>\n

7. InvisibleSHIELD for iPhone 3G & 3GS<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Technically this isn\u2019t a case but it’s not just a Screen Protector either.\u00a0Not only does the tough protective film\u00a0cover the screen of the iPhone, it also covers the back. Installation takes a little bit longer than a normal screen protector, but the end result is well worth it. \u00a0It covers almost all of your phone and will withstand the toughest of scrapes. \u00a0The InvisibleSHIELD has a matte finish with a non slip feel to it. It is great at repelling fingerprints and reducing reflections and most importantly doesn\u2019t affect the sensitivity of the touch screen. As the InvisibleShield doesn\u2019t add any extra bulk to the iPhone, you can use in in conjuction with most iPhone Cases<\/a> and Skins<\/a>.<\/p>\n

8. <\/strong>iPhone 3G & 3GS FlexiShield Skins<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The back cover and chrome bezel of your iPhone might start to scratch or get damaged if they\u2019re not looked after. \u00a0FlexiShield Skins for the iPhone are thicker and tougher than standard Silicone Cases and will certainly give your iPhone more bounce if you drop it! \u00a0It has a non slip feel to it and covers all of the back of the handset, leaving the camera free for you to take your photos. \u00a0It doesn\u2019t cover the screen though, so you\u2019ll need to invest in an\u00a0iPhone 3G screen protector<\/a> if you want to prevent your screen from getting scratched.<\/p>\n

9. <\/strong>OtterBox Defender for iPhone 3G<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

One of the new features of the iPhone 3GS was a built in Compass, great if you enjoy outdoors activities such as camping, hiking etc. \u00a0If you do enjoy these kinds of activities and want to take your iPhone with you, then you\u2019ll need a case that will keep your phone protected in some pretty harsh environments, and that\u2019s exactly what the OtterBox cases do. \u00a0They are a triple layered case that will withstand serious knocks. \u00a0They consist of a clear membrane to protect your screen, a high impact polycarbonate shell that wraps around the iPhone, and surrounding this is a strong silicone skin that absorbs bumps and shocks. This is one of the toughest cases available for the iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS.<\/p>\n

10. <\/strong>iPhone 3G ToughGuard Shells<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

ToughGuard Shells are similar to Crystal Cases, but they are much more robust. Rather than being made from clear plastic, they are made from a more flexible, energy absorbing polycarbonate. This means that the case is unlikely to break or shatter if you drop your phone and will divert impact damage away from your iPhone. ToughGuard Shells don\u2019t cover the screen, so I\u2019d recommend using an\u00a0iPhone 3G screen protector<\/a> with it. These shells are a secure fit to your phone and are more suited to people who want to put a case on their phone and leave it on permanently.<\/p>\n
