What case is everyone getting for the XR?

[titans1127]

I picked up a Speck Candyshell Grip from Best Buy this morning after I picked the phone up. Fits great and is not too bulky and is easily to hold one handed.

Going to wait to see if any official Apple cases get released on Tuesday during the keynote before deciding if I what else I would want to get.

As always, speck presidio/candyshell grip

 

[AppleDior31]

Casetify case...finger print magnet but love everything else about the case. No bulk, protective, grippy, enough lip on front to not interfere with the screen protector and enough lip on the camera.

Crashguard does add bulk. About 2 MM on each side. Phone feels perfect in hand naked. But the added drop protection is well worth it.

I've got the product red one and I'm getting this one from Amazon. I was thinking that a clear case would be fine but i hate the way the discolour and turn yellow over time. Plus this one comes with screen protectors

Check out the Spigen Ultra Hybrid or the Ringke Fusion. They have colored tpu sides with clear acrylic backs. Clear tpu is what ends up turning brown or yellow.

How is the nomad compared to apple’s leather case?

I got a Mujjo leather case. It’s almost identical to Apple leather cases, and maybe the quality is actually slightly better. Thin and lightweight too. Although it’s a shame that there aren’t more colours. I bought it off Amazon but here’s their website.

I’ve also been looking for a white silicon case similar to Apples. But so far I’ve found nothing!

Looks nice. Can you share a link or some more details on it?

Thanks for sharing this one! If Apple does not announce anything on Tuesday case wise then I will definitely pick one up.

I have gone with the UAG Pathfinder in Arctic Camo for my red XR. I have it in midnight on my S9+ (no option for midnight in Australia, so arctic it is). I have also ordered the Spigen Ultra Hybrid with the matte black border and a couple of screen protectors.

I went with a Speck Presidio Show, clear with a black border for my Red XR. Hard case outside, soft layer inside, says 10 foot drop protection. Have to trot to Best Buy for a tempered glass screen protector

View attachment 798465 Here’s my blue XR with a brown Nomad leather case ...

Looks very nice! How do you like it? Are the buttons, fit and quality good?

I like the look and the quality is very good. What I don’t like is the fact that it makes the phone more bulky, in particular it adds width. With the black sides of the case, it makes the bezel look twice as big ..

Yup, bit the bullet on a 1 mm clear case. I may have a crashguard bumper collecting dust soon.

That’s the problem with most cases that offer over 4 feet of drop protection I think...

I ordered one of these from Amazon and it arrived last night. Super impressed. It’s almost exactly like the original Apple leather cases except the side buttons are slightly different. Smells great, fits well, doesn’t add much bulk and it’s a very good substitute for those OEM cases that don’t seem to be available (yet?) for the XR. Went with the black on my Product Red XR and I’m very happy.

 

[user1234]

I got the Spigen Liquid Air.

It's a little bit slippery on the sides. I hope that will change with some wear. Mute switch easily accessible.

 

[Alwayshappyz]

I was thinking about a case from Mous. Limitless 2.0. I like several of the designs. The only fear I have...is that none of them seem to match the XR colors I am interested in (Yellow, Blue, Red). Does anyone have one that could tell me that’s a valid fear?

Also seeing several clear cases, but they turn yellow quite fast according to the internet. Spigen, etc.

There are also leather wallet type phones, but I have been using one of those since my iPhone 7. I hate the flap, always have to flap it away to make a photo of read a text.

Would be nice if Apple were to release their own XR cases, fitting the XR colors.

Using a Torras silicone case

Tethys screen protector
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FQZ8Y1V/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_SBI1Bb8Q00DHR

Liking both so far. The case is exactly like Apple’s silicone case but cheaper and no branding (which I like). Nice fit and grippy.

just a smear that wiped off not scratch in bottom right but

its the spigen liquid crystal

Any chance you can take some pictures of it in the case? I want to do the same thing (black leather over red phone) and curious how much of the red is shown. I know that some at the camera cut out, but what about the side buttons or front bezels?

I really like the idea of red hints poking through.

 

[theboss19]

Speck Presidio Sport. I like how all the ports and buttons are enclosed. No issues using any of the side buttons. Got it in red.

 

[sheltem]

I have a Red iPhone XR. I just ordered the Caudabe Sheath in Navy Blue and I want to try the newly updated Nomad Rugged Case whenever Best Buy gets it in.

I’ll try and get a photo tomorrow AM with the wife’s phone but the case shape and cutouts are pretty much identical to the Apple leather cases for other models. So you can see red peeking through on the side silent toggle switch, the camera (as you mentioned), and almost all of the bottom (speaker grille and lightning port area).
