Currently have the Spigen Liquid Crystal, but on my previous iPhones this case yellows like crazy after a few months.

I am currently looking for something with a clear hard non TPU back, but with an edge that is colored white or silver (NOT CLEAR). That way it doesn't yellow at all. I definitely want a case with a back and not a bumper as I am prone to breaking the glass back of the iPhone X. A bumper + tempered glass back looks pretty terrible tbh since the tempered glass doesn't wrap fully around the iPhone.

Id get the Moshi Vitros but I do not know what material it is made of or if the back will yellow overtime. Any ideas?

Speck claims their CandyShell clear for iPhone 6s doesn't yellow. dunno if the new one for X does the same. BTW I too ordered the Moshi Vitros on their online store a couple days ago but they haven't shipped it yet.
 
You are looking for the holy Grail of clear cases! Let me know if you find it.

I dont understand how no company had made an appropriate case like this yet. The only part that needs to be TPU is the bumper so that it can wrap around the phone snugly. And that part could be colored white or black so that it doesn't yellow. The back could then be a clear hard non TPU plastic that doesn't yellow

The liquid crystal is hotrible never buy it.

If you want a case that doesnt yellow over time you will need one of those transparent “hard” cases im afraid.

Assuming you never the drop the phone thats probsbly thw only option or buy bundles of 1$ silicone transparent cases n chuck them every 3 months+ n change to a new one.(?)
