Regardless of which new iPhone model you picked up this year, there’s pretty much only one case you should consider if you’re looking for something sleek and stylish that also actually protects your phone despite being ultra-thin. The Pitaka Magcase is available for Apple’s iPhone XR, iPhone XS, and iPhone XS Max all at the same price, and it fits like a glove. It’s only 0.03 inches thick but still offers great protection because it’s made of aramid fiber, which is the same material used in real body armor!
