Stickers avoid scratches

If you want to give your iPhone a new style, you can use stickers. You can stick the exactly fitting foils on the front and back of your iPhone. They protect the iPhone against scratches, finger prints and cracks. However, they are not protecting your iPhone against damages because of falls. If you just want to style your iPhone temporary, it’s a good choice to use stickers. They are not an all-round protection like the bumper case though.
