iPhone 5 Cases
Izak
16-09-2012
Now I have my iPhone 5 pre-ordered, I am looking to get a case. I know there aren't many available yet, but I've seen a few and wondering which type would be the best, so I wondered if anyone could give any advice based on previous iPhone cases.

I was looking at the Snugg pouches and Snugg Ultra Thin Skins and wondered about getting a skin to protect the iPhone casing during normal use and a pouch to protect the screen while it is my pocket or when not using it. Would an iPhone with skin fit into a pouch?

Or is there any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I'm trying to get hold of a decent wallet case for the iPhone 5.

The only 2 I've seen so far that are close to what I want are the iLuv Diary, and the Cygnett Flipwallet.
I've been googling frenetically but has anyone got any suggestions?

Looks a good one for now like you say.

Pity there's no cut out for the dock/Lightning connector though which seems odd.

Same here, I think I spent over an hour Googling last night for cases! I found the MobileFun website has a few: http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/cat/iPhone-5-Cases.htm but I'm not sure if they are properly designed to iPhone 5 specs or not.

Found and opted to buy this one finally: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/JammyLizar...#ht_2014wt_965. Looks good for the price and it'll keep the screen covered while still allowing access to the dock connector.

I ordered this yesterday http://www.carphonewarehouse.com/pho...E5-SHIELD-CASE

Will tide me over until better slim cases are available and also waiting for the MediaDevil screen protectors to come out too.

How about one of these

A british hardwood case designed and manufactured in the UK. It;s a bit of a premium priced product but it's certainly different.

**edit**
Found out there's free shipping during the pre order period.

I ordered a silicone case from them. It fits perfectly and was delivered in 48 hours from time of order.
