The Sony Xperia Z2 has been available in some parts of the world for a few weeks, but is just starting to hit a wider audience with its recent release in India and other countries. If you have already gotten your hands on Sony’s new flagship, or you plan on getting one soon, you will probably want to protect your investment with a nice and protective case. Below is a list of the best 5 cases you can get for the Xperia Z2.

Tridea Tongke

The Tridea Tongke is one of the surprising cases you will find for the Xperia Z2. It’s a TPU-based case, which means that it will wrap nicely around your phone and absorb shock if it falls. However, it has a leather stitch look at the back, slightly reminiscent of the Galaxy Note 3, with various colors available. There’s a bright yellow, a chic brown, a pale blue and purple, and the traditional black and red. The Tongke keeps a black rim around the sides and the front, which creates a classy mix of sober look when you’re looking at the phone or laying it on a desk, and playful vide when you turn it around.

Cruzerlite Bugdroid Circuit

Cruzerlite makes some of my favorite cases for Android devices, if only because of their uber geeky designs. The Bugdroid Circuit has a Droid etched, with electric circuitry flowing out of him, in a fun pattern. Like the Tongke, this case is made in TPU, a grippy and absorbent material. It is available in 11 colors, including black and white, but also teal, orange, and more.

Tudia Melody

Tudia has quickly expanded their case offerings to encompass more and more smartphone models recently, and that’s excellent news for Xperia Z2 owners. Their signature case, the Melody, comes in 4 colors, and has an equalizer design engraved in the back. That pattern is shiny, whereas the rest of the case is left as matte TPU.

Spigen Ultra Fit

The Ultra Fit is the only hard case on this list, and for good reason. While most hard cases are made of grainy material and offer little protection in case of falls, Spigen knows how to design a case that both feels good and works well. The Ultra Fit is available in the same 3 colors as the Xperia Z2, namely black, white, and purple, offering the perfect invisible protection for your phone.

E LV Slim Fit

I’ve recently started to fall in love with this particular case style that mixes a colored bumper and a clear back. E LV offers it in their Slim Fit case for the Xperia Z2, allowing you to show the back of your phone with the Sony logo, but also protect it and add a colorful accent around the sides. The E LV is available in 10 different colors, including yellow, orange, but also the more neutral black and blue.
