Spigen for iPhone Xs Case & for iPhone X, Ultra Hybrid [Anti-Yellowing] [Compatible with Wireless Charging] - Clear

I purchased the completely clear, IPhone X case about six months ago and have dropped my phone plenty of times. Not a scratch on my phone and the case still looks pretty good.If you want something sleek and fairly stable that still shows off the design of your actual phone, this is a great case to consider. I work in an office environment, but have taken this everywhere I go, including camping. If you want a case that you can take to battle, this may not be enough protection. But, for the typical civilian user, I have no complaints.I will say that after six months of CONSTANT use and abuse, I am choosing to order the same case as a replacement. It has been dropped enough times that I am worried about having a case that was dropped “one-too-many” times. Plus, it looks to have started to yellow (just slightly) around the edges. Because it’s a clear case, it does have some very fine surface scratches that only I notice. But, I know they are there. On top of that, it’s fairly inexpensive, so it’s not like I am dropping much money purchasing a new case for purely aesthetic reasons.One reviewer noted that lint sometimes enters through the bottom holes on the case (open speakers and cable port), which is true. But that is a phone design issue (bc it happens without the case on the phone, too). I wouldn’t say it’s been a big deal. When I have noticed any lint starting to collect, I just blow in the holes I truly don’t believe this is an issue unique to this case. Any case with open vents is going to deal with specs of lint that enter open holes when you shove it in and out of your pocket all the time.I highly recommend this phone case. I’ve looked and cannot find something as durable or attractive. For me, this is the next best thing to a naked phone.

I buy a lot of phone cases. For different reasons. For me, it is finding one that can take a few drops. Good ones. Like on cement stairs. But I don’t want anything like an Otterbox or something that you have to encase with multiple pieces. I want it to be light. I want it completely clear. I want it to look like glass, but feel like rubber because I need a certain grip. Unfortunately I am on the phone too much. That’s another issue. I have an iPhone X and my phone gets dropped from time to time. It happens. We all know what that situation feels like: you are opening your car door, keys or purse or wallet or groceries everywhere, things are going on, it’s Tuesday, and you drop it. And time stands still as you calculate the potential cost of what fate could soon bring. Did you buy a cheap case? What is cheap? Am I feeling lucky? This case was tested twice. By accident. Right off the bat, you can see and feel the quality of the case. Full disclosure, I use this company’s (Spigen) magnetic phone case holder that simply consists of a powerful magnet that slides between vent slots and a flat piece of metal that you stick to the back of your phone case. I love that product because it actually works. That’s another review I will do if it helps anyone. I spent a lot of money on junk on here. It happens. It’s not like I am getting ripped off by hundreds, but through the years I have bought plenty. And shatterproof glass screen protectors, which you also have to have to compliment your case. If you aren’t going to put a good screen protector on your phone, don’t waste money on this case or any other. My opinion. But it is based on having lots of experiece. Like 2 teenagers. I invest in quality screen protectors and it has paid off. This review of this case includes the fact that I had an excellent screen protector on my phone as well as this case. I didn’t have the case for more than 30 hours before two good tests. The first drop was the classic too much crap in my hands at the mailbox straight up drop on cement. It was dropped from approximately 5 feet. Wind conditions were normal. Visibility was clear and there was a fairly significant amount of humidity which is normal for Miami. Picked up my phone already convincing myself it was cracked. It’s an unpleasant experience to say the least. The result? No damage. Nothing. Nada. The second drop was me running to my truck in the rain. It was pouring and I was waiting for the rain to let up before making a break for it. No pun intended. I started but immediately realized I wasn’t going to make it without getting soaked and ran a few steps back and slipped just a little. Just enough to grab the rail hard with my phone in my hand. Pretty good impact on the rail and then immediately it was dropped. About 3 ft. Nothing. No damage whatsoever.I love this case. It’s light weight and firm. You can tell by the quality of the areas that cover the volume controls, etc. because they are very responsive and line up exactly. Clear. The drops were a result of my clumsiness and decisions and not a result of grip. This is in no way slick or glass like. I have a case that I love that works wth little magnets and it creates air pockets and other cool stuff. But it is slippery. It’s curved too. You cannot use a slippery case even if it is the coolest case and it could under the right circumstances change your life. You can’t. So if you are getting away with that right now, a slippery phone, you should quit while you are ahead. I am really happy with this case. If you want to get into details about what they claim is “air cushioned technology” you can check the specs. What I notice is all 4 corners widen slightly to absorb impact and the molding on the bottom outside raises slightly at all corners to prevent full impact if dropped flat. I am going to get a few more for this price. They are good gifts. Especially for people who break their phone a lot and you pick up the bill. Buy.

First off let me say I am a hater of cases, so much so that I’ve always played Russian Roulette with my iPhones every time I took them out of my pocket. I was planning on doing this with my iPhone X since I purchased AppleCare for the phone. Everyone who owns this phone needs to realize that if you break the back glass on this phone, the repair cost is over $500 from Apple! Even with AppleCare, the cost climbs to $99 if you break that precious back glass. This alone made me reluctantly shopping for a case.I came upon this case after hours of researching the different cases available for the iPhone X. I was looking for a minimalist design that afforded enough protection while not intruding on the elegant beauty of this phone. I found that with this case. The one thing you will find about the iPhone X is it is slipperier the previous iPhones. I always felt like I was going to drop it if I did not have a firm grasp on the phone. The new stainless steel case along with the seamless edges from the glass to the case just makes this phone feel like it’s going to slide out of your hand every time you handle it. All of that is eliminated when you put the case on the phone. This case fits so well around every corner and button of the iPhone that you literally think it was manufactured by Apple at the factory as part of the phone. The crystal clear case actually accents the beauty of the stainless steel edges of my phone. My phone no longer feel slippery, while the minimalist design still makes it easy to slide it in and out of my pocket. There is enough material on the edges of this case, that I’m confident if I dropped it in a parking lot, I would not suffer any damage to the phone. You might scratch the case, but that’s about all. There’s a lot of peace of mind knowing you’re replacing a $13 case instead of incurring Apples insane repair costs! You can see the air cushion technology built into the corners of the phone case. They are unintrusive little air pockets. Think of them as tiny air pillows!As this review comes from a person who absolutely hates phone cases, I am now a believer in this one. I actually would buy it even if I was not worried about dropping and breaking the phone. Yes, it is that good! The phone actually looks and feels better with it on! Plus, the peace of mind it affords me is indispensable.
