8 cases you can consider buying for your new iPhone 8 or 8 Plus
Because it makes sense to protect an all-glass phone.
Urban Armor Gear (UAG) offers one of the best protective cases in the market as the cases are certified MIL-STD-810G 516.6. Simply put, they offer excellent protection against drops and shocks.
The PathFinder case consists of an armor shell and impact resistance soft core. It has oversized tactile buttons for easy access, and is compatible with Apple Pay and wireless charging. You can get it for S$59 (iPhone 8 Plus) and S$49 (iPhone 8) on Hachi.tech.
Want the best of both worlds - a wallet and a protective case? Look no further than the Spigen Crystal Wallet case. It sports a dual-layered design made up of a flexible TPU frame and a rigid PC shell. There is also a sliding cover to store two cards.
It is available through Shopee at S$34.90 (iPhone 8). Unfortunately, Spigen Singapore does not offer a similar product for the iPhone 8 Plus.
If you are always on the move and have no access to a power outlet, why not consider a battery case for your iPhone 8 or 8 Plus? Arguably the market leader, mophie has the juice pack classic case which can boost your battery mileage up to a total of 33 hours. The juice pack classic case also offers high-impact protection with rubberized support pads on the interior to withstand drops and falls.
You can purchase the mophie juice pack classic case for the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus on the Apple Online Store for S$129.
Want a protective yet fashionable case? The Otterbox Statement case could just be the case you're looking for. It has a scratch-resistant clear back to show off the color of the iPhone and a leather accent at the bottom section. The Otterbox Statement Case has a raised, protective bumper to guard against accidental drops and impacts.
Available exclusively at Apple, the Otterbox Statement case is priced at S$59 for the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus.
The Tech21 Evo Elite case has the FlexShock two-layer protection to guard against drops of up to 2m . The FlexShock material absorbs and dissipates the impact force, which prevents the force from passing onto your iPhone. The thin and light case also has a scratch-resistant finish so that you can show off the color of your iPhone.
Available exclusively at Apple, the Tech21 Evo Elite Case is priced at S$69 for the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus, and comes with limited lifetime warranty.
For those who are looking for a folio wallet case, the Cygnett CitiWallet Premium Leather Wallet Case is worthy of your consideration. It has premium leather with a softened microfiber lining, and TPU shell for extra shock absorption and protection. It has three card slots for your credit cards and ID card. A cash pocket is also available to keep your dollar notes.
It is available on Hachi.tech for S$44.10 (iPhone 8) and S$49.50 (iPhone 8 Plus).
Minimalists will love Peel cases as they are super thin and ultra lightweight. Peel cases are designed to not only keep the original look of the iPhone, they are also brand-free with no logo on the cases. Each case is just 0.35mm thin, which will almost make you forget that you have a case on the iPhone. There is a subtle lip to protect the protruding camera lens.
The Peel Super Thin Case is priced at US$24.99 for the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus.
The Synthesis by Caudabe is recommended for those who want rugged protection in a slim, minimalist design. As Caudabe's most protective case for the iPhone, the Synthesis case is made up of a soft, gel-like material - dubbed ShockLite - which has excellent shock absorption. The rear of the case has a hard, micro-etched matte surface to provide some grip.
It is available on Caudabe's website for US$29.95 for the iPhone 8 and US$30.95 for the iPhone 8 Plus.
