SwitchEasy Case for iPhone 5

SwitchEasy Case for iPhone 5

SwitchEasy phone cases provide additional protection for your Apple iPhone 5 in case of drops, accidents, and general wear and tear. The SwitchEasy case fits around the entire body of the phone except for the screen. It is specifically designed to be compatible with the physical dimensions of the Apple iPhone 5 and its successor, the iPhone 5S.

What materials are these cases made from?

The SwitchEasy phone cases have a hybridized design. Most of the cases are made from a material called polycarbonate, which is simultaneously tough enough to absorb damage yet flexible enough to fit over your entire iPhone. The top and bottom edges are thickened with TPU, which is an abbreviation for thermoplastic polyurethane. It's a combination of hard plastic and soft silicone. TPU absorbs additional damage from sudden unexpected shocks. Some cases also feature an ultraviolet gloss coating for extra protection.

What colors do these cases come in?

SwitchEasy cases are equipped with a variety of visual designs, from solid colors to complex patterns to graphical illustrations, so you can give your Apple iPhone an entirely different look from the standard aluminum casing. Some cases feature cutout effects such as hearts, flowers, or bones. Others have a glittery paint finish. The design varies depending on the case.

Can the camera be used with the iPhone case on?

Yes. All smartphone cases, including those made by SwitchEasy, have cutouts that provide unobstructed access to the charging port and camera. In addition, some cases may have cutouts for the power and volume controls, although sometimes the case has its own tactile buttons that cover your iPhone's buttons to preserve their functionality.

Do SwitchEasy iPhone 5 cases protect the screen as well?

That depends on the model. Some SwitchEasy cases have raised edges to keep the screen of your Apple iPhone from touching a flat surface when it's lying face down. Other models will come with a separate screen protector that's usually laid across the surface of the screen.

How does the SwitchEasy case fit on the iPhone 5?

That depends on the type of case. Some SwitchEasy iPhone cases have a design that comes apart into two pieces so you can slide it on while others may have to be wrapped around your entire Apple iPhone 5.

Do these cases have a specialized grip?

Yes. Some may have textured patterns on the sides or back where your hand is most likely to contact your phone when you're gripping it. This extra grip offers protection and helps keep your phone safe in hand while you text or browse the web.
