Phone cases causing overheating is a question we get asked more often than the case industry admits. Yes, certain combinations of thick silicone, slow chargers, and direct sunlight will push thermals up, especially on iPhones during sustained gaming or video. The fix is usually material rather than ditching the case entirely. This guide walks through which case types run warmer, which finishes vent better, and how to keep your phone cool without giving up daily protection. Below is the honest answer.
Every Belvia London case starts life in our London studio, where we obsess over getting the balance right between style and protection. Tough cases are £25, wavy and speciality cases from £16, and you'll get free UK delivery on orders over £25. Let's get into our favourites from the collection.
All cases shown below are available for every iPhone and Samsung model we carry. Images show the iPhone 16 Pro Max version, our full collection of phone cases.
Coastal Cool Tough Phone Case
We designed the Coastal Cool for people who refuse to compromise. The dual-layer build means you're getting serious impact absorption without the bulk. Your iPhone 16 Pro Max stays slim in your pocket or clutch, and the raised lip around the screen means you can place it face-down on café tables without that sinking feeling.
What we love about this design is how it proves that protective doesn't have to mean plain. Dual-layer construction, precise cutouts, and a wraparound print that won't peel or fade, all for £25.00.
Mocha Wavy Wavy Case Matte Shockproof
For those who want their phone to feel as curated as their outfit, the Mocha Wavy delivers. The wavy edge detail isn't just for show, it creates a tactile, grippy surface that makes your iPhone 16 Pro Max easier to hold. At £16.00, this is the kind of everyday case that punches well above its weight on both style and function.
There's something satisfying about the wavy contour in your hand. It's subtle, tactile, and gives your iPhone 16 Pro Max an instantly recognisable profile. At £16.00, it's an easy upgrade from a boring clear case.

What to Look for When Choosing a Phone Case
Choosing a phone case sounds simple enough, but there are a few key factors that separate a great pick from a disappointing one.
- Protection level matters. If you're prone to dropping your phone, a dual-layer tough case is your best bet. Single-layer cases look slim but won't absorb serious impacts. Belvia London's tough cases offer proper drop protection with raised camera and screen bezels.
- Print quality counts. Cheap cases often use prints that crack, peel, or yellow within weeks. Every Belvia London case features wraparound, fade-resistant prints that stay vibrant through months of daily use.
- Check the fit. A case designed for the wrong model won't protect properly, gaps around buttons or a loose fit defeats the purpose entirely. Always double-check your exact model before ordering.
- Free delivery threshold. Orders over £25 qualify for free UK delivery. If you're eyeing a £16 wavy case, adding a straw cover (£4.99) gets you over the threshold whilst completing your accessory game.
- Style longevity. Trendy cases are fun, but classics like florals, animal prints, and clean neutrals tend to age better. If you switch cases often, go bold. If you want one for the long haul, lean timeless.
