I'm in the market for a new phone case. I have a specific case type I prefer because I find it really hard to hold my phone properly while typing, etc so I normally end up with a cheap amazon one that works for me but is ugly, and the part I need does break after a few months so I have to replace it for another cheap ugly case.

Decided I would look for a nice looking case that also has the small ring bit I like, but all I can find is either more cheap, tacky looking cases or really lovely cases that come with magnetic/self adhesive ring attachments that match the case design, but they're super expensive - to me anyway. I'm getting bombarded with ads for a company called Burga, and the cases are lovely and have lovely matching rings but it would be near enough £100 (or more). Are people really paying this much for phone cases?

So where does everyone get their phone cases from and how much do you pay?

To add, I'm aware I can purchase a self adhesive ring and apply it to any case, but I don't want to do that because it would look naff, and the cheap rings break easily.
Please do not suggest Temu.

Mine is a casetify one and is really robust as I drop the phone most days. I can highly recommend it.

I’ve got a Sheldon. I’m always dropping it and it’s well protected, it also has an RDF filter and slots for my cards, driving license etc. I’ve had a few different ones and this is the best by far.

Not sure if they do the ring type you describe OP but I always end up going back to either Spigen or Ringke brand cases. Not overly expensive and they just feel the best in my hand - never slippy, not bulky, but still enough protection for a fall.

I’m not sure what my case is, it’s rubbery, but I like a pop socket on the back. I would never keep my cards and driving licence in the same case as my phone.

Spigen as I’m forever dropping my phone. Each time I upgrade people are amazed it looks brand new

It’s a clear glitter with pastel floating emoticons think it’s Kate spade. Got on eBay.

Interesting. I've looked at the other brands mentioned and although the styles might not be quite what I'm after, the price point is about the same as the ones I did have my eye on, so maybe not as crazy expensive as I'd thought.

Ah no it’s Rebecca Minkoff.
