With so many phone cases on the market, it can be difficult to decide which one is right for your device. In this blog post, we'll break down the different types of phone cases and what materials they're made from so you can make an informed decision about which case is best for you and your phone.
The Different Types of Phone Cases
Silicone Phone Cases
Silicone cases are made of a soft, flexible material that absorbs shocks and is easy to grip. These cases are available in a variety of colours and designs, and they provide good protection against scratches and everyday wear and tear.
TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) cases are like silicone cases, but they're a bit more durable. They're also more resistant to colour fading over time. If you're looking for a clear case, TPU is a good option. Rigid plastic cases are made of hard plastic that doesn't absorb shocks as well as silicone or TPU.
However, these cases offer good protection against drops and other impact damage. They're also less likely to show scratches than other types of cases. Leather cases offer good protection against everyday wear and tear, but they're not as durable as plastic or silicone/TPU cases.
A good accessory to pair with a clear phone case is a phone wristlet. Why wear your phone around your wrists, you ask? It’s simple. You don’t need to worry about where you’ve placed your phone. It’s literally on you and can be accessed quickly. Phone chains come in various designs. This Gaia Gold-Plated Phone Wristlet can be worn around the wrist, which means you have direct contact with your phone whenever you need it. The classic, gold-plated design means you can use it at formal events, too!
Leather Phone Cases
Leather also tends to show wear and tear more easily than other materials. If you choose a phone case in genuine Pebble leather or Nappa leather, be sure to get one that's lined with microfiber or another soft material to avoid scratching your device. Wood cases are another option for those who want something different from the traditional leather or plastic case.
A practical smartphone accessory that you can add is a smartphone lanyard. This offers greater convenience as it allows users to go about their routine while having easy access to their phones at any time. This Mystique Black Lanyard is an elegant smartphone strap that you can pair with any outfit or occasion. The lanyard can be attached to the bottom part of the phone case. This means that you can change smartphone lanyards without hassle.
Wooden Phone Cases
Wood cases offer moderate protection against scratches and everyday wear and tear. As with leather cases, wood casings may show signs of use over time. Aluminium casings are slim and lightweight, making them a good choice if you want minimal bulk without sacrificing protection.
Aluminium Phone Cases
Aluminium also offers good protection against scratches and everyday wear and tear. However, aluminium is not as durable as rigid plastic or silicone/TPU, so it may show signs of wear over time. Carbon fibre casings are strong and lightweight like aluminium, but they're more resistant to scratches and everyday wear and tear. 
Carbon Phone Cases
Carbon fibre also doesn't show fingerprints as easily as aluminium. If you're looking for a slim case that offers good protection without adding a lot of bulk, carbon fibre is a good option.
Tips on How to Choose Phone Cases
Consider Your Needs
When choosing a phone case, it is important to first consider your needs. Are you looking for a case that will protect your phone from drops and scratches, or are you simply looking for a case that is stylish and will make your phone look good?
If you are looking for a case that will protect your phone, you will want to choose a case made from durable materials such as metal or silicone. If you are simply looking for a case that is stylish, you may want to choose a case made from materials such as leather or wood.
Choose the Right Size
Another important consideration when choosing a phone case is the size of the case. You will want to make sure that the case you choose is not too big or too small for your phone. Luckily, manufacturers now produce product-specific phones, so you don’t have to measure your phone. You can simply browse through phone cases based on the specific smartphone model that you own.
Consider the Design
Another important consideration when choosing a phone case is the design of the case. There are many different designs, styles and colors of phone cases available, so it is important to choose one that you like. You may also want to consider whether you want a solid-coloured case or one that has patterns or designs on it. This Black Phone case is Functional and stylish and can be worn as a normal phone case or a crossbody phone case.
Consider the Price
When choosing a phone case, it is also important to consider the price of the case. Phone case prices range between $10 to more than $100. It is important to choose a case that is within your budget. It is always worth taking note that cheaper phone cases may not offer as much protection as mid-priced and expensive phone cases.
Read Online Reviews
Another great way to find the perfect crossbody phone case is to read online reviews. There are many websites that allow users to post reviews of products, including phone cases. Reading reviews can help you get an idea of which cases are popular and which ones have received negative feedback.
