How to Choose the Right Phone Case: A Buyer’s Guide

The right case is the difference between a small bump and a cracked screen. With so many styles out there, here is how to pick the one that fits your life.

Match the case to how you use your phone

• Rugged / tough cases — best for job sites, the outdoors and people who drop their phone a lot.
• Slim cases — minimal bulk with everyday drop protection; great for most people.
• Leather & designer — premium look and feel with solid protection.
• Wallet / folio — built-in card slots and screen-covering flap.
• Clear cases — show off your phone color while staying protected (look for anti-yellowing).

Features worth paying for

• Raised edges around the screen and camera.
• MagSafe / magnetic compatibility for iPhone.
• Tested drop ratings (e.g., military-grade).
• Grippy, non-slip texture.
