Top 10 Luxury iPhone Cases
Written by: jeremy Filed Under: Electronics, Fashion, Luxury on September 9th, 2009Why not spend some money to protect your precious iPhone? These luxury iPhone cases are made from carbon fiber, Tuscan leather, mahogany, ostrich skin, alligator skin and even gold embellished with diamonds and have prices ranging from $80 to over $100,000.
10. Vaja i-Volution Top SP Holster
$80+
If you already think your iPhone is too big, and want to keep it slim, the Vaja i-Volution Top SP may be the case for you. The leather case protects your phone’s screen with a layer of ABS thermoplastic. With the flip-case opened, you have access to all of the iPhone’s features, including the headphone jack, SIM card and vibrate slider. The speakers and camera lens are also exposed. The i-Volution Top SP Holster starts at $80 and is available in a range of styles and colors.
9. DRO Concepts’ Carbon Fiber iPhone 3G Case
$92.99
This carbon fiber case is an improvement on a similar case by the now-defunct Belch Co. (can’t see why they went out of business). This handcrafted case features four layers of carbon fiber with a scratch-resistant gloss finish and a neoprene lining. It even has a removable bottom so you can dock it without the hassle of removing the whole case.
8. Miniot iWood
$95
Where can you find a sophisticated, almost antique appearance wrapped up with a name that would make any horny teenager—and many adults—snicker with very unsophisticated glee? Try the iWood case. It’s… well… it’s iWood.
7. Orbino Tuscan Leather Tasca Case
$119
Tuscan leather handstitched with premium waxed thread at Centro Stile Orbino in Italy makes this flap-top case a unique commodity. The Tasca case is hand lacquered, as well, with four coats of black, brown, tan or red lacquer. The leather lining provides a snug fit for your iPhone 3G or 3GS.
6. Swarovski Wildcat
$299.99
Featuring Swarovski crystals arranged by hand in a leopard-spot pattern, each of these luxury iPhone cases is completely unique. The easily snapped-on case is supposed to be as protective as it is aesthetically pleasing, but Ultra Case doesn’t list the materials used to create the “crystal hard case.”
5. Orbino Strada
up to $319
There are other iPhone cases out there made of the “finest” Italian leather, but what makes the Strada unique is its patented belt clip/pedestal. Not only is this belt clip removable, it’s also made of palladium metal and it can even be used to prop up your iPhone so you can watch videos at your desk. After all, you probably don’t have any other viewing apparatus there. The Strada also features a screen protector and connector access. Oh, it’s also hand-stitched. That automatically makes it at least twice as good. The Strada starts at $99, but you can pay more to get one made from one of a variety of gentle woodland creatures—from ostriches ($249) to crocodiles ($319).
4. Softbank BB Samurai iPhone cases
$1,000
Softbank BB is bringing the aesthetic appeal of traditional Japanese lacquerware to your iPhone. These five cases commemorate five famous samurai from Japan’s storied history—(from left to right) conquerer Oda Nobunaga; one-eyed warlord Date Masamune; tactician and “Dragon of Echigo,” Uesagi Kenshin; famed lover Naoe Kanetsugu and triumphant underdog Yukimura Sanada. The cases were created in collaboration with 350-year-old lacquerware company Zohiko and each design comes with a different cloth pouch.
3. Louis Vuitton iPhone cases
up to $1,120
Louis Vuitton is now offering four different flavors of iPhone case: Monogram Canvas, Taiga Leather, Epi Leather and Alligator Skin. Everyone knows adding the LV logo to something makes it practically priceless. But these prices range from $225 for the Monogram Canvas case to $1120 for the Alligator Skin case. Unfortunately, these costly cases commit the cardinal sin of covering the phone’s screen.
2. Diamond iPhone Case
$20,000
If you think buying a case worth fifty times the phone it carries makes perfect sense, then this is the case for you. With its 42 VVS1 diamonds (3.5 carats), it’s the most bling for your buck. That’s only $5,714 per carat. Great deal, huh?
1. GnG “Golden Delicious”
$100,000+
What is the most expensive iPhone case in the world? This extravagant case is the culmination of twelve months of development. The case features a 1mm subshell made with 140 grams of 18k gold, a carbon fiber inlay and about 200 diamonds. The outer frame features another 400 diamonds in the logo, which may be customized. As a customizable luxury item, however, prices may vary widely based on the materials needed.

it is odd how Louis Vuitton can get away with displaying their brand so prominently when it’s might be gaudy with other brands.

i think that iphones are ol an that people have to buy new phones every year beause of how there old in society. i for one think that kids drive there parents crazy by asking them for newer phones!

redicolous
but i wouldn’t mind get one in present
I had the Sena MagnetFlipper but just replaced it with a handmade leather pouch called the SuperSlim from ikonicedge.
I was really after something like the ikonicedge as its got a minimalist while still very protective look which is something I had a problem finding.
My gosh. People really need to get over themselves.
We love the diamond iPhone case…
but where the hell do we pick one up?
you know I have every one of those Iphone cases my dad said it was fine that I spend that much money on those cases he didn’t care. you would all probably die to get one.
I would protect the case (1) ,not my iPhone.
that is crazy expinsive!!!!!!!!
I love the wooden case, does anyone own that case?
I think I’ll stick with the regular priced iphone cases
GOLD? REALLY? I MEAN COME AWN! I KNOW IF YOU LOVE YOUR iPHONE YOU WOULD GET ONE, BUT REALLY? WHO WOULD PAY $1,000,000 FOR A CASE FOR A PHONE THAT YOU’RE GOING TO END UP HATING IN A WEEK? NOT ME. (OKAY ME)
my daddy paid that much for my phone case. its one of the best things ive ever gotten i love all the diamonds on it:) if they fall off just get them replaced. my diamonds havent fallen off though. My daddy gets me those kinds of cases all the time diamonds are no big deal
They r all so freeking ugly. Pink n simple.
which one I should protect, iphone or case? so crazy!
I have the Miniot iWood case and it is very sleek and beautiful.
That is sick
The last one!
These seem a little beyond what that avg iphone owner would buy….curious, whats the most that you would pay for an iphone case? Ive seen them as low as a $1, and as high as $20K (according the blog)…
as an owner, I think everyone will own one for the added protection.

That diamond case is awesome but its price is incredible… It is the most luxurious one I have ever seen. Would you pay $20,000 for a damn iPhone case? I won’t. I will still adhere to those cheap yet stylish cases. The case I got from http://www.uxsight.com/category/86534/iphone-cases.html only cost me $6 but it works fine.
with that money i get me 50 iphones if one got an scratch on it i throw it away
my daddy just got me the “golden delicious” and the diamond iphone case for my birthday last week! i absoultly love them, everyone at my school is sooo jealous and would killl to have these cases(:
[...] you are still struggling for ideas and you have a large budget then you could always check out the Top 10 Luxury iPhone Cases. There are some amazing examples in the article but these cases are at the expensive end of the [...]
some of those cases are more expensive than the iphone itself
OMG I Think I would need to buy a case to protect my expensive case.
through I should bring up the link http://www.droconcepts.com I got one of their cases and LOVE IT. Thank most-expensive.net
iWood are pretty cool too!
my daddy got me the the leopard case but when it was on my iphone i didnt like it so daddy got me the golden delicious !!! :p
some people need to get over themelves iphones arent even that good. tbh my phone is better then them. it works better and my dad has a iphone it freezes all the time and the battery is rubbish. meh. get a newer phone. whoever buys one of these cases is crazy!!
It does not make sense to buy a case that’s worth more than the iphone.
Unless the iphone cost $500.000….LOL.
No wait… that phone is not out yet.
Wait another 25 years.
I bought an apple branded case from china it cost $5.00 including postage, i had more protection with that than any other case with my iphone.
What does Lous Vitton know about iphones anyway..u people buying expensive looking materialistic cases. i really dont look at them and no-on else does. Ur all idiots for spending more than $20 on a case.
hmm, someone can hook me up with some money if they want to just throw it away, come on now a hundard thousand? for real? must be nice to have nice things…i work my ass off and all i get is a empty bank account…good luck ya’all..and good spending!
why would you buy these?? It just gives your phone a greater chance to want to be stolen. Wake up people DON’T wast your moner i thought we were in a resession
sorry “money”
who are you kaiytlynne?? My daddy would “have a spell” if i ever serousily asked him for one
Heck,
to the one that said the iphone would have to be worth more to cover it in diamonds, I have a custom made iphone that I paid close to $50,000 for so to cover it in an expensive case makes sense. My iphone is a prototype that I designed. It starts my car, and operates all my computer driven home. The case on my custom iphone is made of titanium outer shell and is complimented well with the gold and diamond case. Its all about flash and showing you have the money and arent afraid to spend it. For those that are making fun of the cost, you are just jealous that you cant afford these cases.
There are Swarovksi Crystal iphone case at luxaddiction.com . They offer much better looking iphone cover than these.
I think it’s funny how most of these people just put “my daddy”. in front of their post. Hilarious as a matter of fact
what ever.i like the one with the leopard.the rest are cheesy and UGLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
no, i do think i will pay for more on the case, i’d like to make my iphone to be a perfect one.
i heart my iPhone 3GS and these cases are really nice. I like the Vaja and Samurai personally but I think my Fantaskin Crystal Chic is by far much better in design and value for money. Like c’mon how can anyone afford any of these, except maybe the Vaja. Seriously check out novoskins.com for the most UNIQUE AND CHIC CRYSTAL SKINS
Here we go. The price to pay for civilization. or is it?
How I wish i can have one of those!
i do think the the iwood is pretty cool but diamonds?? i’m cool with my iphone case from http://www.backflipcase.com it’s gotta kickstand and under $30.00
my dad just got me the iphone 3G and the golden delicious
and im only ten
even if I had the money I wouldn’t buy one of these things they’re all ugly. I get my iPhone cases for about a dollar in china when I go on vacation there or my dad goes over for work and they work just fine. people should be doing better things with their money if they have it than spend 20 grand on a case, that’s foolish.
Why would some one pay 200,000 bucks just on a iphone case!
i own an iphone 3gs 16gb, and a capsule rebel case. i think that the cases above are all about price tags. they dont even look good! wake up ppl! doesnt mean it has LV on it, it looks good! and how culd u waste money on those kinds of stuff when u know 4 a fact that thousands of ppl are dying of poverty?
peace out.
