Incipio makes some great cases that I have enjoyed on my previous iPhones. They sent along six of their current iPhone 5 cases for me to try out.

The cases shown in the following image gallery include:

• DualPro SHINE
• NGP
• Faxion
• Code
• Stashback
• Stanley Technician

Each case comes with a clear screen protector and microfiber cleaning cloth. The screen protector is easy to install and doesn't impact the look and feel of the display.

They are all solid case choices and the one for you depends on what functionality you are looking for in a case. Prices range from $19.99 to $39.99. All cases are available now.

As you can see there are some colorful options available from Incipio.

Here is a shot of the back of the cases.

I like the new Incipio retail packages. They show off the case and are easy to remove.

One of my favorite cases of these six is the DualPro SHINE. It offers a silicone core with an outer rigid shell. The rigid shell is made with their Plextonium™ material and has a brushed aluminum finish. The shell runs along the entire right side and most of the left with openings for the silicone inner core to access buttons and ports. The dimpled top of the back adds some style to the case.

I checked out the titanium silver/charcoal gray one. You can also find this case in Titanium Silver/Obsidian Black, Light Silver/Optical White, Obsidian Black/Obsidian Black, and Optical White/Hot Pink. The DualPro SHINE is available now for $34.99.

I also really liked the NGP case that has a similar style to the SHINE. This is a one piece case that looks similar to the soft silicone core in others, but this piece is more rigid. It surrounds all sides with an opening for the ringer switch and openings in the bottom for the headphone jack, Lightning port, and speaker.

I tested the Translucent Mercury one, but it also comes in Obsidian Black, Translucent Orchid Pink, and Translucent Indigo Violet. I like the matte finish of the NGP and unlike many of these with glossy finishes you can't see scratches or fingerprints on this case. You can pick up the NGP for $19.99.

The Faxion case looks to combine the silicone core with rigid shell in one single piece. The inside is lined with silicone that comes up towards the edges. A glossy shell piece is around the silicone.

I looked at the Charcoal Gray/Royal Purple one, but this case also comes in Optical White/Charcoal Gray, Obsidian Black/Obsidian Black, Haze Gray/Navajo Turquoise, Optical White/Cherry Blossom Pink, and Optical White/Lilac Purple. The colored silicone is apparent around the front edges, back near the camera, side near the volume buttons, and top power button. The Faxion is available for $34.99.

I liked the cool design and solid protection of the Code case. This case offers three layers of defense due to the back insert piece that helps keep the case from sliding around while also offering some added back protection. These raised areas are rubber pieces that act as good bumpers.

There is a solid inner silicone core. The outer Plextonium™ shell comes in glossy black and after several days of use I saw that it collected some scratches. I checked out the Obsidian Black/Charcoal Gray/Cyan Blue one and note that the back colored insert piece can be interchanged. The case also comes in Optical White/Obsidian Black/Scarlet Red and Optical White/Charcoal Gray/Cherry Blossom Pink and is available now for $34.99.

Incipio looks to have a partnership with Stanley, the tool folks, and the last case sent in for evaluation was the Stanley Technician. Rather than Incipio logos, the Stanley logo is present on the back of the case and the swivel part of the belt clip. I checked out the black and yellow one, but it is also available in pink/black, black/black, and white/gray.

This case is very similar to the NGP with a single semi-rigid soft shell body. The body is black with some designs around the ends and alone is a nice NGP case. The belt clip holder is made with rigid Plextonium™ material that lets you slide your iPhone 5 into place with the screen facing outwards or inwards. For maximum protection it is designed for the iPhone to face inwards and there is a large soft piece of material to add screen protection.

This is a nice combo that is available now for $39.99.
