Which is the best material for cell phone cases


Category: Cases

A good phone case or protector can prevent your cell phones from getting scratches or wet.
The common materials for cell phone cases include metal, leather, silicone rubber, and plastic. It is hard to say which material is best, for each of them has their own advantages:

Metal: Metal cases for cell phones are much heavier and more expensive. They are often coated with paints. Men prefer to choose this material for their phones. However, if the metal cases you choose are not of high quality, the paints may fall off after a short time of use.

Leather: Leather cases for cell phones are upscale and fit for customers with high demands of quality. Most high-end cell phone companies, like iPhone and Blackberry, recommend leather cases or protectors. The major feature for leather cases is abrasion resistance. Cases out of leather are much more durable and sturdier than those of plastic and silicone.

Silicone Rubber:This kind of phone cases has two styles, hard ones and soft ones. The hardside silicone rubber cases look like plastic ones but much more durable. Soft rubber cases are lighter and easier to put on and take off. There is another feature for hard silicone rubber cases - water resistance. Generally, phone cases out of silicone rubber are more affordable than leather ones.

Plastic: Plastic cases are often cheaper than the materials mentioned above. Cases out of plastic are waterproof and have a large selection of color and pattern options. They are not quite tough and may crack if being thrown on the ground.
