Rokform Rugged, Crystal, and Eagle 3 Series are the best iPhone cases you can buy if you're looking for maximum protection. Our military-grade protection shields your phone against drops 4x better than competing cases. And our industrial grade MAGMAX magnets and RokLock twist lock give you two different alternatives for securing your phone to a mount or magnetic surface.

I like cases that aren't too thick but offer decent drop protection, with a lip over the edge of the screen (sometimes referred to as a "screen bumper") and raised corners that help prevent your screen from cracking if your phone should fall face down. A folio case will more fully protect your screen. The good news is that you don't have to buy a super-protective iPhone 16 case like the OtterBox Defender XT to get good protection. Most cases are reasonably thin and still offer at least 6-foot drop protection. I did include one very thin case on this list for folks who prefer minimal protection

The best material for protecting iPhones is high-quality light but impact-resistant polycarbonate. That's what we use to build our iPhone cases. Polycarbonate provides the protection, style, and durability your iPhone needs, without adding excess bulk or weight that makes your phone awkward to hold, use, or carry in your pocket or purse.
