Flip Cases
Are you looking for a case that resembles a small book? Then, you are probably looking for a flip case. A flip case encloses the back and edges of your smartphone and has a front flap that can be folded sideways over the display. When closed, the flip case offers comprehensive protection for your smartphone and hides incoming notifications, which is appreciated by many users.
The practical thing about a flip case is that there are usually compartments on the inside of the front flap where you can store cards and/or cash. For this reason, a flip case is often referred to as a “wallet case”. In addition, many flip cases allow you to fold the flap so that it can be used as a stand for the phone.
Back Covers
A back cover is a type of phone case that covers the back and edges of the smartphone, leaving the display free. A big advantage of back covers is their relative compactness, as they barely increase the overall thickness of the phone. With a back cover, you can easily put your phone in your pocket.
Back covers leave the screen exposed, which is both an advantage and a disadvantage. The advantage is that you can see incoming notifications immediately. The disadvantage is that the display is not fully protected by the case. However, many back covers have a raised edge along the screen to reduce the risk of damage. If you want to optimally protect the screen, it is recommended to combine a protective case with a screen protector.
Back covers are available in many different designs. They are made from different materials, come in many beautiful colours and offer useful extras such as space for cards and a stand function.
Cell Phone Chains
Do you often not really have a place in your outfit to store your phone? Or do you often lose your phone? Then the phone case with a strap could be a good option for you! Such cases are popularly called “phone chains” and are incredibly comfortable to use. The strap is firmly attached to the bottom of the phone case with one or two attachment points, depending on which variant you choose. In addition, the strap is adjustable in length in most cases, so you can adjust it to the perfect length as you wish.
You can wear the strap around your neck or over your shoulder so that you always have your phone close at hand and can’t lose it. With a cell phone chain, you also reduce the risk of damage from falls, as the strap catches your phone if it slips out of your hand while you are using it.
Sports Bracelets
Do you like listening to music while exercising, or do you want to be reachable during training, but don’t you want to keep your phone in the pocket of your sportswear? Then a sports armband could be just the thing for you! A sports armband is a sturdy cell phone case that you can attach to your upper arm with an adjustable strap. This allows you to carry your cell phone comfortably while exercising. With a sports armband, you also reduce the risk of damage from falls, as you can keep your cell phone safe in the armband. Sports armbands always have the necessary cutouts so that you can continue to connect your headphones to your cell phone, for example. The touchscreen display of your cell phone also remains operable through a conductive transparent window in the sports armband.
