Thin, light, and easy to grip — this case lets you enjoy the look of iPhone XR while providing extra protection. It’s also crafted with a blend of optically clear polycarbonate and flexible TPU materials, so the case fits right over the buttons for easy use.

On the surface, a scratch-resistant coating has been applied not only to the exterior, but also to the interior. Need to wirelessly charge? Just leave the case on your iPhone and set it on your Qi charger.

Folks, it’s a case

Sure, all those fancy buzzwords sound nice and all, but don’t let them fool you into spending $40 on something you can literally spend $7 on. But hey, to each their own, I guess.
