Otterbox defender in blue and lime green. But then, I have a 2 year old.</p> <p>Of these, I like #3 best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iphone-case#post-1092079 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 18:02:26 +0000 Anonymous 1092079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://lifehacker.com/5903080/should-i-use-a-case-on-my-phone"><a href="http://lifehacker.com/5903080/should-i-use-a-case-on-my-phone" rel="nofollow">http://lifehacker.com/5903080/.....n-my-phone</a> </a></p> <p>Discusses purpose of case: decorative, minimal protection (scratches), maximal protection (against falls).<br />I got AppleCare ($100 for two years- we've used it once each for each of our 3 iPhones) so that takes care of falls. I have a thin rubberized white case that I use primarily to add some friction (I am at the gym or&nbsp;home most of the time&nbsp;where my phone is on the kitchen counters- places where it can easily slide around otherwise). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iphone-case#post-1092067 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 17:55:31 +0000 annagybe 1092067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah I go for pure function. Otterbox Defender, though it is pink. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iphone-case#post-1092002 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 17:18:24 +0000 lyn* 1092002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I dropped my phone on 5 concrete steps following a kick.

They need to offer more fun designs - are you listening otterbox? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iphone-case#post-1091975 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 16:59:30 +0000 Aleta 1091975@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think you need to worry that a bright or playful looking iPhone case will in any way diminish your standing in a business environment (unless it has teddies on it or fluffy ears!).</p> <p>For myself I have a plain white and grey cover from Speck which I am very pleased with, it is simple and elegant, I don't really do girly. There can be problems with some cases actually scratching the iPhone that they are supposed to be protecting so I suggest you check some reviews out on line before you buy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iphone-case#post-1091963 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 16:51:24 +0000 Anonymous 1091963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a lifeproof case in black, but my kids (4 and 2) took my phone and put Star Wars stickers all over it. Just putting that out there as an option :)</p> <p>I like seeing all the fancy cases everyone has. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iphone-case#post-1091955 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 16:46:12 +0000 rute 1091955@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love 3! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/iphone-case#post-1091953 Wed, 20 Nov 2013 16:44:57 +0000 Makrame 1091953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I finally upgraded from a "dumb smartphone" to an iPhone 5s, and would like to find an interesting, inexpensive (under $25), and fairly protective slim case for it. &nbsp;It also occurred to me that I should take into consideration how it looks in meetings etc. - so perhaps more eye-catching and overly "playful" designs are out? &nbsp;These are some of the options (the first one is from Otterbox, a Commuter case, the other two are from Kate Spade on sale at Nordstrom). &nbsp;What do you think? Are the Kate Spade one too playful (maybe I should wait for something more serious, like a&nbsp;graphic black and white design, for example)?&nbsp;Any experience with these cases? &nbsp;Other ideas? </p>
