There are so many iPhone 4 leather cases available in the market that it is difficult to make a choice. In fact, iPhone 4 cases are the maximum available in the market compared to cases available for any other phone.

According to a research, there are about 250 types of cases available for iPhone 4. It is beneficial in the sense that consumers are spoilt for choice but at the same time, they do not know which to choose.

Which Leather Case Is Right For Me?

Fortunately, there are some sites which list information on leather cases, their features, and what to look in a case when you go to shop for one. Apart from an iPhone 4 leather case, you are also bound to find many plastic or silicone cases in the market. However, if you are a leather freak, essentially there would be three types of cases, namely a carry pouch, a flip case, and an enclosed case that you will find.

A flip case or a carry pouch is a hit with the customers these days. Enclosed cases are more suitable for traditional candybar phones. Let's discuss each one in detail.

Carry Pouch

Carry pouches are great iPhone 4 leather cases. It covers almost the whole phone and is less heavy than a flip case. Look out for a pull tab when buying a carry pouch. This type of a case does not typically have cut outs on the side. You need to pull out a fabric tab to take the phone out of the case.

Although the top is open in this type of a leather case which allows you to use your headphones while the phone is still inside, you will have to take out the phone to charge it. The phone will have to be put in the case upside down while charging. Some rare cases that have a cut out at the bottom can be dangerous as they leave the charging port exposed and thus vulnerable to spills and knocks.

Flip Cases

This is one of the most popular types of leather case. This type of a case is ideal for touch screen phones as it completely shields the phone when it is not in use. However, there is still fast and easy access to the screen. You do not have to remove the phone from the iPhone 4 leather case.

The position of the flip should be looked at carefully when you buy this type of a case. A side or hinged bottom cover is highly recommended. A flip hinged at the bottom will ensure that the flap does not come in the way when you use your phone. Also, mostly cut outs are absent in flip cases for the camera.

Enclosed Cases

There are hardly any brands which make enclosed cases for iPhones. Enclosed cases fully cover the phone except the silent switch, headphone socket, and the volume keys. You can also use the touch screen while the phone is still inside the case. You also simply need to unzip the bottom of the case when you need to charge it.

Other than the ones mentioned above, there are holster, organizer, cast, and case folding iPhone 4 leather cases that you can get hold of, in the market. You can also get USB chargers and digital cameras at these stores.
