TOZO Clear Case

TOZO’s clear iPhone X case is thin and flexible, so it might not offer as much drop protection as other cases. But if you frequently change cases, or need to quickly take it off, this one will be perfect. It’s 1mm thin, so it won’t add bulk to your iPhone X. It’s made of a soft TPU shell, and the edge plating comes in different colors. It has cutouts instead of buttons, and it has a raised bezel. The TOZO case is also on sale, but it won’t be available until November 5. Find it on Amazon for US$8.99.

    As promised, I’m getting back to you on the Seidio Optik case.

    It has minimalist clean lines, is only about 2mm thin with slightly raised corners for drops. It adds minimal bulk to the device and does not overly obscure the phone’s lines or features. Cost is also minimal (US $14.95).

    I like it.

  • Andrew:

    I’m not sure what your selection criteria were, but I’ve become a fan of Seidio, and have ordered their clear Optik case, which claims superior drop protection.

    Will let you know how I like it.

      1. Dave Hamilton turned me onto them after I got my 6s Plus back when, and I’ve used their products since.

        The Optik case arrived today, so once I get my phone, I’ll let you know if I like it.
