It seems like everyone and their mother has an iPhone these days. Thanks to one of the most successful companies in the world—Apple—starting and then perfecting the smart phone business years ago, these little touch screen dialers have continued to be the hottest companion of nearly everyone—even with more competitors hitting the market. But what are the best ways to both protect it and keep it sleek and stylish? Keep reading and you’ll see which cases are even more expensive than the phone itself.
5. Gucci Crocodile Skin Case – $495
Made with 100% Italian crocodile skin, no one from PETA will like hearing about this case, but it’s definitely an eye-catcher regardless. With a soft, subtle look to it, anyone considering this case might as well toss in the matching iPad case as well—which will set them back just $3,500.
4. Burberry Studded Calf Leather Case – $595
Anything with the name Burberry attached to it typically comes with a high price tag—and this iPhone case is no different. Made with 100% Italian leather—the same used in sports cars like Ferraris—it has an invisible magnet that helps keep the phone safe and tightly protected. It may look cheap with its studded design, but at nearly $600, it’s anything but.
3. Brikk Trim Titanium Case – $2,600—4,400
A three-layer, titanium case, this Brikk case is arguably the most tech-focused design on the market right now. And for those who don’t just want to me forced with a color that might not be suitable for their tastes, it comes in five different options, varying in price that start at $2,680 and end at $4,430. But at least your phone won’t ever get damaged.
2. Miansai Solid Gold Case – $10,000
You may have been the first on the block with the 5S in gold, but we’d be willing to bet no one in your neighborhood has this all-gold, Miansai case that’s custom made and engraved. Those looking for true “baller” status will have no problem flaunting this thing—and with a $10,000 price, we don’t blame them.
1. Anita Mai Tan Dragon and Spider Case – $880,000
We bet you never thought that a phone case would be more expensive than any house you’ll probably live in, but coming in at over $800,000, this case does just that. With 2,200 different diamonds and a total weight of 32 carats, as well as 18k gold and 38 carats on the dragon and spider, this case also comes with a necklace to make sure no one rips it off of you.
