Hi Guys,
Not sure if this thread will get much attention due to the lack of owners of the Product Red iPhone, but I was wondering what cases have people tried with their Product Red iPhone (and actually looked good)!

I have around 40+ cases at home that I've used with both my Black & Jet Black iPhone 7 Plus previously, but when I got the Product Red, I rushed out and wrapped it with a Naked Skin Wrap that I can't test my cases.

Another thing I've seen is covering the front with a Black E2E Screen Protector and a Black Sided case gives it that whole Red & Black Combo that most of us are after (apart from the white home button).

Anyways, let the posting begin.

I unfortunately can't comment on what cases with red phone BUT I will throw my two cents in...

If you want to black out home button these can be found on eBay in a black/black combo. Used them on my phone, work perfectly, touchID still functions, can't tell it even exists over button etc

Food for thought

Cheers buddy, I've seen them pointed out recently but need to check if Amazon have them.

Ps. Maybe this could be "The Product Red iPhone Accessories Thread?"
 
Myself, I have a matte black iPhone 7, but the case that I think looks best on any of the iPhone 7 colors with a white screen is the Tech 21 Evo Mesh in white. I know someone who has a gold iPhone 7 with that case and it looks great. I'd imagine it would also look really nice with the red iPhone 7.
 
Tech21 do nice protective cases (if a little bulky obviously) but I doubt people who buy the Red iPhone would want to hide the Color (kinda like Jet Black owners wouldn't wanna do the same).
 
Thanks, but those cases would suite the Black models more than the Red.

Plain, transparent TPU cases seem to be doing the trick for me at the moment (so long as the front is still white).

So I've just applied a black E2E Peel screen protector and my Incipio Reprieve Sport case in Clear/Black and it looks like this:

I'm yet to buy a Black hone button ring but quite impressed with the outcome so far.

Ok now that looks nice. Just strap a block E2E screen protector on that and you'll have a gorgeous looking phone

Here is the one I linked too. Do you have a link to the screen protector you mentioned? I can't seem to find it.

I just installed a black edge to edge screen protector on my new red 7 plus. I like it, but I wish it did cover the white face completely. Theres a small rim of white showing on mine. That, and the white home button. I don't like the look...I'm waiting on a black home button sticker from Amazon.

After one full day with the black front, I have to say I kinda miss the white front. It really does make the phone "pop". I always thought I preferred the black front on a phone, but I really don't mind the white. Some say they find it distracting, but I don't.

I also installed a ghost armor protector for the back of the phone. It doesn't cover the sides, but does add some scratch protection. It gives the red a glossy look, which I'm not sure I like. The matte red is pretty sweet.

Clear otterbox symmetry as it protects and shows the beauty of the red color.

Does anyone use the product red silicone case with the red iphone 7 plus? It woud be appreciated to see photos from users instead of the usual stock images from the apple website.
Thanks...

what about the rhino shield play proof in clear? I have it on my MB 7 plus and I typically despise clear cases. No finger print or scratch issues to date

My playproof clear started turning yellow in a matter of days. I returned it to Amazon. No problems with yours?
