This week on the Harper & Blake blog, we’ll be answering one of our most frequently asked questions: what’s the difference between a Harper & Blake snap case and a tough case?
The short version of the story is that the tough version offers more protection from drops and other impacts. However, the cases are similar in a few ways too.
See the table below to decide which case is best for you!
Snap Case | Tough Case |
Impact resistant polycarbonate | Dual layer case |
Slimmer form factor | Impact resistant polycarbonate outer |
Exposed ports and buttons | Inner TPU (rubber) liner to absorb impacts and covered buttons |
Lighter and thinner | TPU protects volume and on/off buttons, but they are still press-able |
Best for those who want the slimmest and lightest case possible | Best for those who want more protection |
