We carry our phones everywhere from morning workouts to late-night scrolling in bed. With how important these devices are, protecting them isn’t just optional it’s essential. And that starts with the right phone case.

But how do you know which one to choose? Some people prefer ultra-slim designs, others want rugged, shockproof protection. Some go for aesthetic printed covers, while others prioritize wireless charging compatibility.

In this blog, we’ll walk you through exactly what to look for in your next phone case, from grip and protection to material, fit, and features no matter whether you use an iPhone, Vivo, Samsung, or OnePlus phone.

1. Grip: The Unsung Hero of Every Great Case

Ever had your phone slip out of your hand just because the case was too smooth? That’s where grip becomes a game changer.

Key things to consider for grip:

• Material: TPU and silicone offer better grip than hard plastic or glass cases.
  
• Finish: Look for matte, textured, or rubberized finishes.
  
• Shape: Rounded edges can be more comfortable, while flat edges may offer a stronger grip.
  

If you often use your phone one-handed, check out our Samsung Galaxy soft cases that are slim yet offer a non-slip grip.

2. Protection: Don’t Let a Drop Ruin Your Day

A phone cover should shield your device from scratches, drops, and cracks. Protection should never be sacrificed for looks.

Look for these features:

• Shock-absorbing corners
  
• Raised bezels around the screen and camera
  
• Dual-layer design (TPU + hard shell) for rugged use
  

Rugged or hybrid cases are ideal if you have an active lifestyle or are prone to dropping your phone. They’re especially good for phones like the Vivo V series, which feature large displays and sleek builds.

3. Fit & Button Feedback: Comfort in Every Click

A good mobile case should feel like part of your phone—not a bulky addition.

Here’s what to check:

• Snug fit that doesn’t slide or loosen over time
  
• Tactile button response
  
• Accurate cutouts for charger, camera, speakers, and sensors
  

Phones like the OnePlus Nord series have fast, responsive buttons so your case should not interfere with that experience.

4. Material Matters: Choose Based on Daily Usage

Not all materials are created equal. Your usage pattern should guide your choice of material.

Common phone case materials:

• TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane): Flexible, shock-absorbing, durable
  
• Silicone: Soft and grippy but may yellow over time
  
• Hard Plastic (Polycarbonate): Slim and stylish, less impact-resistant
  
• Hybrid (TPU + PC): Best of both worlds—flexible inside, hard outside
  
• Glass or Acrylic: Stylish but fragile
  
• Leather or Fabric: Great for professional and formal use
  

Our iPhone 15 Covers feature a mix of TPU and hard polycarbonate designs to provide both elegance and durability.

5. Screen & Camera Safety: Raised Edges Are a Must

The screen and camera lens are the most vulnerable parts of your phone. A case with raised lips around the front and back prevents direct contact with flat surfaces, reducing scratch risks.

This feature is especially important for devices with camera bumps like the iPhone 14 Pro, Samsung S series, or OnePlus 11R.

6. Style & Personality: Printed Covers for Expression

A phone case is also an expression of your personality. Printed and designer cases offer the best of both worlds—protection and aesthetics.

At Kesta, we offer printed phone cases with vibrant colors, unique artwork, and trendy designs for brands like Vivo, Samsung, and OnePlus.

Whether it’s abstract art, floral patterns, motivational quotes, or superhero themes—you’ll find something that speaks to you.

7. Slim vs Rugged: What Fits Your Lifestyle?

• Slim Cases: Great for minimalists, pocket-friendly, ideal for office use
  
• Rugged Cases: Built for rough use, better protection, slightly bulky
  
• Transparent Cases: Show off your phone’s color (ideal for iPhones & Vivo phones)
  
• Printed Cases: Stylish and suitable for gifting
  

Your daily routine should influence your pick. Office-goers might prefer leather or slim matte covers, while travelers or students may benefit from rugged and shockproof variants.

8. Charging Compatibility: Go Wireless the Right Way

Wireless charging and MagSafe are becoming standard in modern phones.

Make sure your case:

• Is not too thick (for Qi wireless charging)
  
• Has MagSafe compatibility (for iPhone 12 and above)
  
• Doesn’t block the magnetic ring or alignment points
  

Some TPU or silicone cases support wireless charging, while thicker rugged cases may interfere with the process.

9. Cleaning & Maintenance: Keep It Fresh

To increase the life of your phone cover:

• Clean TPU and silicone covers with mild soap and water
  
• Avoid direct sunlight (prevents yellowing)
  
• Replace your case every 6–8 months if it shows wear or discoloration
  

10. Price vs Value: Don’t Just Go Cheap

Ultra-cheap phone covers may miss critical features like:

• Corner protection
  
• Camera cutout alignment
  
• Durable material
  

At Kesta, we balance affordability with quality, so you don’t have to compromise. Whether you want a stylish printed case under ₹300 or a rugged hybrid case under ₹500—we’ve got you covered.

Conclusion The Perfect Case Is Just a Click Away

Choosing the right phone case isn’t about picking the cheapest or prettiest option. It’s about finding the perfect blend of grip, protection, fit, and style tailored to your phone and your lifestyle.

Whether you use a Vivo, Samsung, OnePlus, or iPhone, the right cover can protect your phone and reflect your personality.
