In this week’s roundup of new iPhone protection, you’ll find a case that comes with everything you may ever need, one that shines a light in more ways than one, and a swimsuit for your phone (that you will probably not want to take near water).

The PowerArmour (iPhone 5 and 5s; $90) features a slim build that protects against damage during everyday use.
The case also incorporates a rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery that provides an extra eight hours of talk time.

The X-Ray Skeleton Punk (iPhone 4, 4s, 5, and 5s; $20) features an accurate, if creepy, x-ray picture of a human skeleton.
Despite the, um, barebones appearance, the case offers excellent protection from bumps and scratches; it includes openings for all of your iPhone’s ports, cameras, and buttons.

The Naked Tough (iPhone 5 and 5s; $35) sports a two-piece design that combines a tough bumper with a transparent back shell to form a package that protects your handset while letting its natural beauty shine through.
The bumper comes in clear, black, or white.

The Custom Identity (iPhone 5 and 5s; price varies depending on configuration) allows you to build your dream case by choosing from a variety of backplates, bumpers, and screen protectors.
When assembled, the case can withstand drops up to four feet, and uses raised front edges to protect your iPhone’s screen from chips and scratches.

The Selfy (iPhone 5 and 5s; $50) is more than just a case: It comes with a detachable Bluetooth-wireless shutter control for taking photos using your favorite camera app.
Available in black and red, the case also incorporate dual-layer protection technology that adds minimal bulk to your handset. The slot on the back of the case makes it compatible with a range of accessories, including a tripod and several mounts.

The Lighter Case (iPhone 5 and 5s; $39) is just your typical iPhone protective accessory. Except, of course, for the fact that the case incorporates both an electric cigarette lighter and LED light.
The case comes in black or white.

The Case+ (iPhone 5 and 5s; $200) has everything you need to take your handset with you.
The package comes with a sturdy, all-purpose case that also doubles as a viewing stand in landscape orientation; a dashboard mount for your car; a wallet attachment for when you’re on the road; and a convenient external battery that gives you an additional 2300mAh of power.

The Kameleon Designer Hardshell (iPhone 5 and 5s; $50) offers excellent protection with a sturdy, minimalist design that incorporates a convenient kickstand for propping yor handset up in both landscape and portrait orientation.
The case comes in black or white.

The Bikini (iPhone 5 and 5s; $5) sports a minimalist design—it looks a bit like a big rubber band—and attaches to your handset to double as a convenient handstrap. It also comes with a hoop that can be used to hang your phone from a bag on a keyring.
The case comes in white, black, grey, red, orange, blue, aqua, or green.
