On April 9th 2018 Apple released their newest products iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus (PRODUCT)RED Special Edition. Apple claim all (PRODUCT)RED purchases will help provide testing, counseling and treatment for tens of millions of people living with HIV/AIDS. Out of those two products the most demanding one is the 8 plus RED version. Dual camera setup, large screen and large battery are the most obvious reasons for that. This device is one of the stylish device apple have release yet also it comes with a price ($799) and it has glass on front and back sides. It’s worth spending some money to protect this beauty. It’s much better if you can maintain the elegant design of this device and protect it too. I have found ten cases that will protect your device and at the same time showcase the elegant design of this beauty.
1. Spigen Ultra Hybrid [2nd Generation] iPhone 8 Plus Case
I will start with the cheapest one on the list: Spigen ultra hybrid case. This one is can showcase the original color of your device. Clear hard PC material on the back and a red pink color TPU bumper around the corners. The bumper is kind of red, more like red pink not the same red like the device but it’s red enough to match to the device. The case will give you a good grip thanks to the TPU bumper and decent drop protection. Also this case can use for iPhone 7 plus too.
