I asked companies to send me cases they would like to see covered in my review, so these cases were not my choice, they were what the companies themselves chose. I did do Twelve South, Speck, and Moshi in other reviews.

Has Rhinoshield contacted you, if not, I’d be happily willing to buy one and send it straight to you guys so you can take a look and most definitely recommend them, at least I’d hope. You guys can be more willing that I can to test it out..
 
I cannot get past the weird kickstands on some of the Spigen cases. Very distracting. I am using one of the clear Otterbox Symmetry cases right now (had it since launch day) just to get comfortable with the phone. Next up is an Apple Silicone (white) and I may use my Caudabe Veil (Lucid Clear), but I’m still not convinced that case would offer much protection if I dropped my phone.

Basically, I have AC+, but zero desire to have to use it. :D
 
I wish the reviews provided more information on how well each case worked with Qi chargers. That seems like a miss.
Also, case makers rarely show the bottom of the case. I need to make sure my speakers are covered. Every iPhone I’ve had gets clogged speaker holes and they stop working even when cleaned.

Every one of these cases except for one works with Qi wireless chargers, it's mentioned up at the top. It's not mentioned for every review because almost all cases work with wireless charging. There aren't many cases that cover the speaker holes -- you'll need to look at one of the more protective cases from somewhere like OtterBox or LifeProof for that. Most cases have cutouts for speaker + Lightning port.

This was actually my final case review roundup, but if I happen to do another, I'll keep Rhinoshield in mind.
 
I have a Spigen case for my phone, I think it's the tough armor version they reviewed. I like it. It covers the whole phone, has a bit of a lip to protect the screen and overall isn't too bulky. I also always use a Skinomi screen protector on my phones.
 
There are only two types of handheld phones; ones' that you'll drop, and ones' that you'll drop again. Fortunately, there are some pretty cool options available that fit tighter than a cat's meow, while still providing a reasonable level of protection. AppleCare is a no-brainer. Those that are brave enough to go without a case need to plan on waiting in line (often) only to drop it off and return later to pick it up.
 
The phone looks some much better without a case... Its a real shame to hide this beautiful phone inside any of these... None of them seem to look any better than the official Apple Silicon, Leather and Folio cases either? My fiancee is using the Apple Silicon Case in Sand Pink as she loves pink and she doesn't feel all that comfortable without a case and it makes the phone looks so much worse :(

I agree that a phone should be naked but just a word to the wise:

Apple Care only covers for 2 incidents only (i.e. 2 front replacements, or 2 rear replacements, or 1 front and 1 rear).

Given how fragile the X is, I see a lot of people that go naked with their X will end up using their allotted 2 incidents from one drop.
I second. The comment is absolutely true. Just because of having Apple Care, it does mean we should not protect the phone. I have Apple Care and am using clear otterbox symmetry to expose the stunning, gorgeous, eye catching and attention grabber silver phone for other and my admiration for protection. Accident happens and over protection for the most expensive phone is never going wrong.

Yeah. There's a bit of a bump on the back, but it doesn't pop out when not in use.
 
Getting my X Monday and I’m going to use a unicorn beetle pro supcase . Same one I used for my iPhone 6 Plus and one of my tablets it has never let me down before .
 
These are all ugly as sin.
I won't use any of them even if I'm paid.(seriously)
Just buy official Apple leather case it's perfect and the only case I'd recommend for iPhone X...if you like more grips and cheaper price get the silicone one.
 
These are all so hideous... I've been going naked with this phone so far and I love it. It doesn't scratch and if I ever drop it, well, that's what I got Apple Care for.
Apple Care ... right. So if you crack the back glass it’ll only be $500+ to replace with Apple Care.
 
I have Apple Care for my X too and I’m still nervous to drop my phone. Now I’m not clumsy at all and rarely drop my phone but having a glass front and back makes me wanna rock a case. I feel like only having 2 accidental replacements isn’t enough.
I had an Urban Armor Gear on my 6 plus Not clumsy either but it had hit the concrete a couple of times and that case saved it. With my X I put another UAG (Monarch Series) on this one as well. With it being all glass like it is I don’t want to drop it either.
 
Yeah. There's a bit of a bump on the back, but it doesn't pop out when not in use.
Because it is held by a magnet on the backside of the kickstand. But that means it does not lie flat on the back. (Compromise...)
Does it seem like it would scratch the backside of the phone? I mean, is it contacting the phone directly or is there a layer of the TPU or whatever case in between the kickstand and the phone?
