Best iPhone 7 cases

Once you get your hands on a sleek iPhone 7, the first thing you might want to do is start showing off its glorious design – but you should get it covered with a protective case before anything else.

Whether you need to guard it from drops, bumps or scratches, we’ve selected the best iPhone 7 cases on the market. One thing to consider is how you'll want to use your phone case. Do you need a phonecase/wallet combo? Do you have young kids that sometimes handle your phone where a more durable case would be needed to guard against stains? Or are you style focused? Perhaps looking for a full grain leather option.

Also worth considering is the level of protection, how snug it fits around the device and how well it retains its functionality.

From sleek, designer options to gym-ready tough - we've rounded up the best iphone cases to keep your phone in check.

Apple iPhone 8 / 7 Leather Case

Smooth yet sturdy, Apple’s leather iPhone case is designed to fit snugly over the curves of your device without adding extra bulk. The brand has also created this protector with a micro-fibre lining on the inside to reduce the damage from impact. Because it is made from specially tanned and finished French leather, the case develops a natural patina over time. What we like most is that it doesn’t hinder your phone from charging wirelessly. Available in 9 other colours, there are plenty of options to choose from, too.
