Questions & Answers for iPhone X Silicone Case - White

You can wirelessly charge a phone with a case on, so long as the case isn't too thick

We've been testing the new iPhone 8 and 8 Plus with various cases and wireless charging pads and have found that wireless charging works if the case is less than 3mm thick. (It might still work if the case is a little thicker, but the latest charging pads list 3mm or less as a spec for wireless charging). Plenty of protective cases, such as Speck's Presidio Series, Otterbox's Symmetry Series, Tech 21's Evo Series and others are less than 3mm thick and can be kept on the phone while wireless charging.

No, not even close. It might provide some protection but its nowhere near as protective as something like an Otterbox or Speck etc.

No it is nowhere near the bulk of any otterbox model. I tried 2 other brands including Speck’s Presidio before buying this one and this is by far the best. Extremely thin and feels great to use. Also love that the case doesn’t cover the bottom so swiping up to go back to the home screen is way easier. Probably not the same protection level as some others but if you just want something to protect the back glass and you’re careful about not dropping, this is perfect.

Well obviously from Apple not making any of those claims that other case makers do tells you all you need to know.
The cases have nice sleek appearance that feels good in the hand and blends well with iPhone.
They are not the last thing in protection.
For myself and many others this case will be fine but not everyone will have same experience.

It's thick enough that it extends a little beyond the camera bump on the iPhone X, so that the lens won't rest on the table.
