cheap silicone case

[JRoDDz]

Will a cheap silicone case protect the iPhone 4 or is an expensive TPU case needed?

It will probably work fine but silicone will stretch and lose shape over time plus may get "dirty" looking. TPU is a much better material, you can find them cheap on eBay, usually a couple of dollars. Some of the cheaper cases might not fit as well being that they are made with lesser quality in mind, but thats not to say you cant find a good either. All depends what your looking for.

Depends on how you plan to use/abuse your phone. You're better off with TPU though. Silicone cases are so...2004.
