Stylish cases for iPhone 6

Apple users talked about wanted a larger display, and the iPhone 6 delivers. More texts are displayed, reading is easier on your eyes and your apps seem to go on for days. The larger format means you have more to protect. The sleek, aluminum casing won’t do anything to protect the smooth, seemingly endless glass screen on your newest tech toy.

Lucite was a staple during the 1950s and 1960s, but the 24 Karat Case modernizes the translucent material (Case-Mate, $50). Genuine gold foil makes this case sparkle while keeping your iPhone 6 safe.

If drops are your biggest worry with your new phone, protecting the corners will go a long way in keeping your phone safe. The Survivor Core has special protection on the corners for the ultimate in drop protection (Griffin Technology, $30).

Leather cases help keep your phone in your hands instead of slipping onto the floor. The Leather iPhone 6 case from Kate Spade comes in four colors — we love the Vivid Snapdragon (Kate Spade, $50).

The Symmetry Series is OtterBox’s sleekest line of cases (OtterBox, $45). We love the soft colors of the Aqua Dot, which is a colorful and chic way to cover your iPhone 6. The Symmetry cases offer the protection of an OtterBox in a streamlined design that won’t feel too bulky in your hand.

Cases for iPhone 6 Plus can still be stylish

If you’re upgrading from an iPhone 4s — or any previous model, actually — the iPhone 6 Plus might feel a little like an intruder in your purse each morning. Its dimensions don’t mean the 6 Plus has to be hidden away between a mammoth case.

No matter how you look at it, the iPhone 6 Plus is likely to be the largest phone you’ve handled since that ancient cordless phone you vaguely remember from childhood. The iGlaze Armour case adds very little bulk, while providing a gorgeous, metallic finish (Moshi, $45).

The Case-Mate Brilliance Case in Champagne is a gorgeous, glittering case (Case-Mate, $80). The genuine crystals and premium leather form an outer protective layer, and there is an inner liner to protect the already lovely iPhone 6 Plus body.

When you’re carrying the iPhone 6 Plus, you have everything you need at your fingertips. With the Quilted Folio by Rebecca Minkoff, you can toss your phone into your bag during the day and use it as a tiny clutch at night (Case-Mate, $45). The micro-suede interior cushions your phone, while the black and gold folio can hold two credit cards.

If you want maximum protection for Apple’s largest iPhone, the Defender Series offers heavy-duty protection (OtterBox, $70). You can choose custom color options, and this case will withstand any abuse you give — and even weather the storm of letting children take photos or check out one of your apps.

Don’t forget to stash your new phone at the end of the night. Discover why — and how — to keep your bedroom a tech-free zone.
