Do we know anything about upcoming XR cases from Apple? I am wondering two things about those.

1. Since XR models are colored, will the colored parts be covered entirely by the cases? Thus also below at the loudspeakers for example, where Apple‘s cases were traditionally open? If the color of the XR will still be partly visible despite the case, will Apple offer matching colors? Coral case for the coral phone? Or, for the more adventurous, yellow case for the blue phone etc.?

2. Speaking of covering: Will the bezels on the side be covered by the cases? If so, this could create more of an edge-to-edge impression, especially with matching colors for case and phone.

I myself might choose a colorful XR, i. e. neither black nor white, if I knew that this color could be covered entirely by the case, should I decide to use one down the road or should I simply get bored by the color.
 
If history repeats, cases made by Apple for the X-RAY will be similar to what is offered for current/past phones. Lots of other case choices to show off the color of the phone. Don’t know if they will match colors to the XR though. Will be interesting to see choices. I don’t remember the color selections for the 5C...weren’t they color matched and perforated?
 
Can’t remember what we got with the 5C unfortunately. Still hoping for something special with the XR. It is unusual for Apple to release such a phone in the first place. So maybe they will follow suit with the cases..
