For the past few months I’ve been grumbling about the fact that Apple no longer sells official silicone cases for the iPhone X. My Rose Red one is peeling badly, so I started looking at Apple’s iPhone XS cases (they fit the X, but there’s a slight gap below the camera bump because the XS’s bump is a few millimeters taller). I was about to buy a green one when I thought, why should I buy a $40 case for a phone I may replace this fall?

Browsing Amazon, I found these $12 silicone cases by SURPHY and decided to give one a try. I ordered a yellow one and was surprised when the color actually matched the photo on the product page. What I like most about this SURPHY case (besides the price and the color accuracy), is that there’s nothing printed on it—not even a logo. It feels the same as Apple’s cases and has the same soft lining. If you have an X or an XS and are looking for a cheap silicone case to get you by, I recommend this one!
