We get asked frequently what the difference is between all of the cases that we offer. Case-Monkey.com is a phone and table hub that connects you with multiple brands of iPhone cases, Galaxy cases, iPad cases, and more. We sample and test out all new cases that we offer on our website. Some are glossy, some are more protective, some print edge to edge, etc. Sometimes it is hard to see the differences online, so we have explained them in more detail below.

Thinshield Cases

Our Coveroo Thinshield Snap-On cases are different than most of our cases in that they have a matte finish instead of a glossy finish like most of our other cases. The Thinshield case is one piece and snaps onto the back of the phone. The main difference about the design of these cases is that the image prints on the flat back side of the case only. The sides around the case are black. The Thinshield case is slightly thicker than our standard Snap on cases. These cases take between 6-11 days to process and ship.

glossy-case

Snap On Cases

A majority of our cases are the Case-Monkey brand Snap On cases. These cases feature a shiny, high gloss finish. They are slightly thinner than the Thinshield cases. One major different between these cases and the Thinshield case is that the Snap On cases print from edge to edge, including the sides. Text does not always print well on the sides, but your image can be extended from edge to edge with text on the flat part of the case. Most of these cases are $24.95 and ship within 24-48 hours.

We offer a second Snap On case for the iPhone 5 made by Frydaze. These cases are very similar to the Case-Monkey brand Snap On Case but have an oval shaped hole for the camera space instead of the more square shaped hole. They are glossy and have a similar thickness.

tough-case

Tough Cases

Our last type of case is the Tough case. These cases have a similar glossy shell like the Snap On case, but the Tough case includes an inner silicon lining for extra protection. This lining borders the front of the phone the absorbs shock if the case is dropped. The case is still slim but offers another level of extra protection.
