Using the Cheapest Case

[Mark Stone]

In the 8-1/2 months since I’ve gotten my Eye Phone 13, I’ve also gotten a few cases. First, when my wife and I got our 13s over at TMO (“Big Pink”) , we went to the local shopping mall and got some cheapos to protect our phones until we got “real” cases. I paid $10 for a clear generic. I then got a nice Supcase “Unicorn Beetle”, a LifeProof Fre, an Otterbox Defender, and a UAG.

So which one do I use the most? The convenient, cheap $10 clear case. Go figure. It works better - smaller, buttons work better, I can reach the mute switch (which I cannot do on the UB and Otterbox), and I can see my pretty blue 13.

Wow, nice.

Congratulations on your cheap iPhone case!

Looks like it’s already turning yellow, unfortunately.

i'm not surprised that you bought a bunch of inconvenient bulky cases and would rather use the simplistic one. maybe there's something to be learned haha

But I think this case is great, it protects your iPhone 13. And it doesn't completely cover the design of the iPhone itself. It looks very nice.

That’s what it looks like in the picture, but it’s still clear. The good thing is, when it does start to turn yellow, it’s inexpensive to replace. 😊

Very true! I had two clear cases for my 13 Pro last year. One of them turned yellow within a few weeks (Spigen I think) and the other unbranded one is still clear to this day.

I used a cheapo JETech $6.99 case on my SE 2016 over 6 months ago and it looked great and provided excellent protection. The only minor problem is that it did turn a shade of yellow in that relatively short period of time.

That’s the only downside when using clear silicone cases.
