Once upon a time, every single person on the planet had a Nokia mobile phone. Oh yes you did. They all looked the same, they all had the same ringtone, and they were pretty much indestructible. They were used to make phone calls and, if you were tech savvy enough, send instant messages. Today’s smartphones are incomparable when it comes to tech. They’re also slimmer and have bigger screens. And with all that good stuff comes the fact they are way more delicate pieces of equipment, and we need to look after them. Just a note on how fragile they are: in the US, 50 million broken screens are repaired or replaced each year. Ouch.
Yep, our precious smartphones are valuable things, and a cracked screen or scratched surface can be expensive and frustrating to deal with. And that’s where the phone case comes in. Sales of phone cases have soared in recent years, as people are generally happy to pay good money for something that can protect their precious phones, rather than face the cost of repairs or, worse, a new phone.
But wait! A phone case will not only protect against knocks and drops, it also makes your phone instantly recognisable in a sea of others, and is a great way to showcase your style with some wowser artwork. With such a range of designs at Hardtofind, you can easily find one (or two!) that fit the occasion as well as your personality. Keeping your phone unblemished and in good working order also means that in times to come, when you want to sell it on or trade it in, it will be in mint condition and will get you a better deal than if you’d left it to scrape its way around the inside of your pocket or bag. So how to choose the best phone case for your phone? Or a gift for someone you love? Read on.
Make a list of must-haves. Are you after something that’s fun and frivolous to change up the look of your handset, or are you in need of something more functional that will stand the test of being thrown around from bag to car to bedside table?
A top-quality phone case will last a long time and stand up to the trials and tribulations of everyday life. Perhaps the go-to if you want a durable and timeless phone case that doubles up as a card case or wallet, is leather. A classic black or tan leather phone case will go with everything, and will start to look even better when it achieves that patina with age. Or express your personality with a brightly coloured leather phone case that has a hole cut for your camera, so you don’t need to take it out of the case. Look after your leather phone case and it will pay you back in spades. If you don’t want animal skin but you still like the luxurious look and feel of leather, check out the vegan leather phone case options here at Hardtofind — made from eco-friendly synthetics or plant fibres.
Phone cases make a lovely gift, and a personalised gift shows how you put in that extra mile when choosing a gift. It’s easy to make your gift one of a kind by adding a name, initials or logo to the back of your custom phone case, or stamped into a leather phone case. Tip: When searching for your phone case, check the ‘Can be personalised’ box in Special features.
