9. OtterBox Defender Series iPhone Case

The purpose of the aptly named Defender Series is to provide almost all of the phone’s functionality (the silence button is covered) while protecting the iPhone from the rigors of outdoor activity. The case features a hard plastic shell with a protective membrane that leaves the screen just as responsive as it is without any protection. There’s also a silicone skin that allows you to maintain your grip. Best of all, the case is weatherproof. It comes with a rugged holster and can be had for $49.95.

8. Sena MagnetFlipper Case

Sena, a well known manufacturer of PDA and smartphone cases, offers this European Napa leather case for iPhone users.

The case features cutouts for the power button, headphone jack, SIM card, vibration and volume controls and the camera lens. It even features a pocket that can accommodate a credit card or two. The MagnetFlipper is so named because of the magnetic closing mechanism that allows it to be easily operated one-handed. It is available for $52.

7. Case-mate iPhone Carbon Fiber Leather Case/Holster Combo

Made of a rare leather used in high-end aftermarket cars covering an impact resistant molded shell, this is Case-mate’s finest iPhone case. In fact, it’s available only for a limited time. Once their supply is gone, that’s it. The case also comes with full face screen protection and a holster made of the same carbon fiber leather as the case itself. This costly case will set you back $69.99 and can be purchased in either red or black.

3. Orbino Strada

There are other iPhone cases out there made of the “finest” Italian leather, but what makes the Strada unique is its patented belt clip/pedestal. Not only is this belt clip removable, it’s also made of palladium metal and it can even be used to prop up your iPhone so you can watch videos at your desk. After all, you probably don’t have any other viewing apparatus there. The Strada also features a screen protector and connector access. Oh, it’s also hand-stitched. That automatically makes it at least twice as good.

Everyone knows adding the LV logo to something makes it practically priceless. But these prices range from $225 for the Monogram Canvas case to $1120 for the Alligator Skin case. Unfortunately, these costly cases commit the cardinal sin of covering the phone’s screen.

If you think buying a case worth fifty times the phone it carries makes perfect sense, then this is the case for you. At $20,000, it’s the most expensive iPhone case and, with its 42 VVS1 diamonds (3.5 carats), it’s the most bling for your buck. That’s only $5,714 per carat. Great deal, huh?
