The OnePlus One is one (if you’ll pardon the pun) of the most controversial devices of 2014. But having recently started shipping, with a more open invite system, it has been quickly making its way to the hands of many enthusiasts all over the world. If you happen to be one of the lucky people to have gotten their hands on it, you must be looking at the best ways to protect it. Here are our personal picks for great OnePlus One cases.
Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit
A unique phone deserves a unique case and that’s what the Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit case will do for your OnePlus One. With its signature Android and electric circuit, the case is a perfect mix of geek and fun, without bordering on corny. Available in 11 colors, it uses TPU as its base material, which is flexible and shock-absorbing, and has a great in-hand feel. I’ve personally owned several of these cases for other smartphone models and can’t recommend them enough.

Tudia Ultra Slim
Tudia is quickly becoming a well-known name in the smartphone case industry. By sticking with what they do best — thin TPU cases in 4 signature colors — Tudia has been able to reiterate and adapt to many models and get great ratings and feedback on all of them. Their Ultra Slim OnePlus One case is no exception, opting for glossy top and bottom parts with a matte middle segment.

Imak Crystal Clear
The OnePlus One isn’t an ugly device by any stretch so why would you want to hide your phone’s design inside a case? If that doesn’t make any sense to you either, then you’ll want to check the Imak Crystal Clear case. Unlike the other cases on this list, it is made of transparent plastic (not TPU) that will protect your phone without affecting its style. Plastic is however more rigid and less capable of absorbing shock than regular silicone cases.

Orzly Flexible Soft Gel
The Orzly case isn’t exactly pretty nor is it ground-breaking. It’s your average run of the mill TPU case with a few choice colors — blue and pink — flexibility, well placed cut-outs for the most important ports, and an average Amazon rating of 4.5 stars for 18 reviews.

Diztronic Full Matte
I cheated a bit on this article by including an unreleased case, but that is mostly because OnePlus One cases are really tough to come by. Diztronic, makers of a series of successful cases for almost every flagship and mid-range device under the sun, are bringing their matte lineup to the OnePlus One. The case, which is kind of pretty and awesome, will be available in black, red, and blue, and will start shipping before or on August 11th.
