lines up nicely. There’s a satisfying
click to the buttons and a cover for
the Lightning port, but our favourite
feature is the small switch for the ring/
silent button. Where it can be tough to
get at on other cases, Lifeproof adds a
dial that can be easily twisted to mute
your phone. It’s a little pricey, but you
can get it for a less if you shop around.

LIFEPROOF WAKE
Price: £24 from fave.co/3aEFPn5

Colours: Black, blue, green, purple.

MagSafe charging: No.

Why we love it: The Lifeproof Wake
case isn’t flashy or rugged, but it’s
still one of our favourite cases. Why?
Because it nails the details. The fit
is great, the
texture on the
back feels
great, and the
buttons might
be better
than the
ones on the
iPhone itself.
Speaking of
the buttons,
we love how
they add

a pop of colour that adds an accent
reminiscent of the Pixel phones.

GRIP2Ü BOOST
Price: £35 from /fave.co/3hpZjxv

MagSafe charging: No.

Colours: Clear, black.

Why we love it: At this point, we
know exactly what we’re getting with
Grip2ü’s cases: good protection,
simple looks and a handle to keep
your iPhone from slipping to the
ground. The Boost case has one extra
surprise: a kickstand that will prop
up your phone for film-watching. The
kickstand’s location means it’s more
for landscape use, but it’s sturdy
enough to get some typing done.
The buttons are
flush against the
case and a little
tricky to press,
but they seem
like they’ll break
in over time. But
if you’re looking
for a case that
adds function and
protects against
bumps, this is the
one to get.
