One intriguing addition is the Classic C1 which transforms your iPhone into the look of the iconic iMac G3. Most Spigen cases, however, focus on being cool in a subtle and understated way.

Otterbox

Otterbox is best known for its Symmetry Series and Defender Series Pro. All its cases focus on being fairly sleek and slim with the Symmetry Series being ideal for a little extra protection while the Defender Series Pro is more rugged and capable of dealing with some heavy blows and drops. Both offer an antimicrobial additive that helps inhibit microbial growth so your case is protected from a lot of common bacteria. On the surface, Otterbox might keep things fairly simple but it also offers up a Disney range for those that want to add some personality to their look.
