3 STYLISH AND PROTECTIVE IPHONE CASES I AM LOVING

09/08/2017

Last month, I decided to bite the bullet and get a shiny new iPhone 7 plus. I decided I really needed to up my game and get a new contract that serves me well. Being a person who's constantly active on social media, having 3GB of data with my previous contract wasn't enough.

A month in and I am absolutely head over heels with my new phone. I went for the 128gb, rose gold and it's honestly been amazing so far. I don't have to delete photos and apps to create more storage anymore and I have been using the portrait camera mode way too much. It's the best feature with this particular model, I have to say!

I have never managed to smash an iPhone from my own fault before, but I wanted to play it extra safe this time and get some cases that will protect my phone as much as possible.  However, I didn't want a boring flip screen case that would look really masculine and quite boring to the eye.


Speck is a technology brand that have cases for all types of Apple products; including MacBooks. They also have phone cases for Samsung Galaxy phones for those of you who aren't team iPhone. The cases are reasonably priced and are some of the best quality phone cases I have ever used. 

Speck sent over a bunch of different style cases for me to try, but this Presido Clear Neon Edition case is my favourite. Retailing at just under £24.95, it's the case I am currently using and it's done very well at protecting my phone. Saying that, I am still yet to drop it (touch wood!), but I have high hopes that the durable material of this case will protect the phone from smashing. 


Another brand I was recently introduced to is that of MMORE. Their iPhone cases are truly unique and unlike any other I have come across. Their Organika Cases are made from handpicked and natural materials; which consequentially still smell like nature too - with no allergies passed on!

Each case is priced at £33.97 (free shipping available too); made using a durable material that is long-lasting, protects from damage and gives you a better grip too.  You can choose from Alpine Hay, Coffee and Roses. However, I went for Jasmine and have really enjoyed using. It's a strange concept, but a really good one!


Gear4 is another technology brand that I had actually heard of before. When I was offered the Gear4 Oxford iPhone case, it really sounded like something I would benefit from. It's made for those people who are constantly on the go and always out and about using their phone. Sound like a blogger to you?

The case is a flip one and has plastic brackets on the right hand side, which is where you secure your phone into. On the left side, there's a couple of slots for cards - really handy for me too as I hate carrying a purse around! It retails for £34.99 which may be a little more than I would usually spend on a case. However, this is the one out of the three that is guaranteed to keep your phone as protected as possible.

Which one would you go for?

  1. The phone cases look amazing and they actually look so sturdy! The second one is pretty cool with the wood design, but the first one is still my favourite - love the colour!

  2. I think the Oxford one is my favourite, they are all nice though. I always have such a tricky time choosing phone cases.

  3. You wouldn't believe the amount of phones I have broken so this is great. If I told you that my husband used to be a phone designer, and despairs with me, would you believe me? I will show him this page so he can order something to help his clumsy wife! :D

  4. These are great - honestly I would go for ANY of them if I could just find one that was made for an HTC instead of an iPhone!

  7. Every new phone I get I treat myself to a new phone case. At the moment I love my Kate Spade one x

  8. These cases look like they'd do the job of protecting your phone, which is the main thing I guess. I think I'd personally prefer something a little girlier - I have a skinnydip case on my iPhone at the moment!

  10. My daughter learnt the hard way about having a protective case that really works for her phone. She now has a rather good one, and when I say rather good; the guy in the shop demonstrated it by throwing his own phone across the shop (in the case). And it survived. Always a wise investment.

  13. We can vouch for Speck and it was the first iPhone cover my mummy had and lasted ages. Really good for shock absorbency :)

  14. hmm. All great cases. The one I have now is awkward to get out of the case when I need to use it for other things.

    Thanks for Sharing.

    As someone who uses Samsung phones, you'd be surprised how hard it is to find a good case!

  16. These look like such great phone cases! Quite honestly, I was amazed at how difficult is was to find the perfect one when I got my new iPhone. I especially love any that are colored. They're easier to find when I'm digging around for it in my purse! x

  20. They all sound great cases, I think the Gear4 Oxford case is the one I would choose. It looks really sleek and sounds like it does everything I need and want from a case.

  21. The phone cases look like they could handle being chucked about (something I'm guilty of). I am so wary about smashing my phone screen now since some delightful sod smashed the screen on my first iPhone and I've now got a massive crack on the screen of my current iPhone. My phone cover is about to give up so I am definitely going to check out the Gear4 case.
