Best iPhone X cases: how to protect your nearly bezel-less iPhone

Apple has announced the brand new look iPhone X and that means accessory manufacturers have begun revealing cases for the phone.

We've seen multiple cases for the new top-end iPhone already, so we've put together the guide below so you can see some of the best we've seen so far.

TechRadar has yet to use any of these cases in real life though and we've just put this collection together so you can see the different looks, features and designs of the cases on offer.

We can't recommend these particularly for sturdiness or protection until we've seen them in the flesh, which will hopefully be soon. We'll be adding more cases to this list as time goes by and as we see more options appear on the market, too.

This is one of the cheapest iPhone X cases on the market right now and it should protect your phone from the odd scratch.

We don't think it'll be able to do much to protect your device if you drop it though and the gel material probably feel as comfortable on your palms as the glass that's on the back of the iPhone X.

Desmay claims to be selling one of the thinnest iPhone X cases at 0.35mm, but that's quite difficult to tell right now considering not many accessory manufacturers have revealed new iPhone cases yet.

But at 0.35mm you'll still be able to use wireless charging and the company claims this case will give you "maximum protection" so hopefully this will protect your phone well.

This one may be one of the best looking cases we've seen for the iPhone X so far and the super thin designs mean the case shouldn't make your phone much bulgier in your pocket.

It's uncertain how protective that vertical camera cut-out will be, but here you'll get the choice of a variety of colors including a bold blue and green. Those aren't colors you can buy the new iPhone X in.

This is perhaps the most protective case we've seen for the iPhone X so far. It looks to have a sturdy design that will ensure if you drop your phone it won't break, and if the phone does come with a bezel-less display that could make it all the more fragile, so a case like this could be desirable.

That said, this isn't the most attractive case as you will lose the premium glass-backed design we've been excited about on the iPhone X.

This case is slim once again, but it's made of metal and has a magnetic clasp on the side to ensure your phone screen won't easily get scratched up. It also has a military-grade drop protection certificate so you can be certain this case will protect your iPhone X the time you inevitably drop it.

Unlike the choice above, the Tech21 Evo Tactical won't protect the screen of your iPhone X, but you can always buy a screen protector to ensure you don't scratch up that 5.8-inch bezel-less display. The design of this case should help protect it from drops though but it's currently uncertain if you'll be able to wirelessly charge your phone while it's in this case.
