Apple iPhone Smartphone Cases are always on our minds. Why because they are so interesting and deciding what makes a good Smartphone case.
Apple iPhone Smartphone Cases Guide
Do you want your case to be waterproof, drop-proof, anti-fingerprint, smudge-proof, or just plain indestructible? How about cool, sassy, colorful or should it make a statement?
Oh and we also have protective for EMF Radiation. So yes we are always trying out different things and what is best.
Some phone cases are more practical, while others are more visually appealing. Some offer protection, while others are more like a second “skin” than a case.
Do you need a screen protector and does it need to work with a wireless charger? How thin is it and will it fit in your pocket or catch on your pocket? Do you want it in your pocket or purse?
The following is a guide that answers common questions about iPhone cases, such as:
What types of phone cases are there?
It’s not just a matter of deciding what kind of phone cases you want, but what kinds of phones you use. Since we focus on Apple iPhones at Cellular Smart Shop and use them every day we are literally joined at the hip (pocket that is).
There is an assortment of options, but here are some of the most common types to get you started.
Slim and Gel Cases
Bare Bears Soft Fitted Case for iPhone XS MAX XR X 8 8+ 7 7+ 6 6s 6+
Slim cases are on the thinner side and some have an eye-catching design and add some additional grip to a phone, often through a flexible, rubbery silicone TPU gel material.
Authentic Wooden Cases
Carved Ebony Wood Case for iPhone 6, 6s, 6s Plus, 7, 7 Plus, 8, 8 Plus
Authentic wooden phone cases are unique and there are many styles and personalities. From exotic complex hand carved cases to simple and basic and everything in between. Wooden Smartphone cases are eclectic, “Old School” and as un-electronic, as you can get in some ways.
Many times real wooden Smartphone cases have a TPU full protective interior back cover that helps the iPhone seat better in the wooden case and also helps protect it from drops and damage.
It is good to have all of these interesting options in Smartphone cases and the more you search the more variety there seems to be.
Waterproof Cases and Bags

Bumper Cases
Full Body Protective Armor Case For iPhone 7 8 Plus X XR XS Max
Unlike slim phone cases, these cases usually only cover the sides/border of your phone and are often made of a harder, shock-resistant material to protect your phone from dings and scratches.
Bumper cases can be minimalistic, only cover the edges of a phone, or they can come with additional pieces for protecting the front and back from scratches too.
Folio or Wallet Cases
Luxury Leather Folio Wallet Case For iPhone X XR XS Max 8 7 6 6s Plus
Folio Wallet Cases have a cover that folds over the front of your phone to protect the screen from dust and scratches and give the phone the appearance of a small notebook.
Some even have wallet-like features, such as the ability to store cash or credit cards, while others can be turned into a stand to prop up your phone.
This leather folio wallet case above for iPhone is made of high-quality leather and features 11 card slots in the wallet, has a stand, and is also a flip double leather case. The magnetic back cover can be removed to use only and the double leather wallet case provides your iPhone full protection.
You’ll typically find these in leather material and they will likely cost more than the slim cases but also are more practical.
Tough Armor Cases
Carbon Fiber iPhone Case Dual Layer Rubber & Hard Shockproof Cover
Many people decide it is more important to have a phone case, less as an aesthetic choice, and more as a way to protect the hundreds or in excess of a thousand dollar investment in their phone should they ever drop it.
Tough Armor Cases can be bulkier and add more weight to a phone, but afford customers greater protection.
