10 uptown smartphone cases you can find in Singapore

One can never have too much bling.

If you thought smartphone makers are the only ones desperately staying ahead of their peers, it means that you’ve not seen the plethora of smartphone cases that plaster the walls of shops and push-carts in our sunny island.
