For this review, I put the iPhone X/Xs Protective Back Cover Ring with Magnet Case (Black) through its paces. This case promises protection and a magnetic ring feature—but does it deliver on both counts? I spent several weeks using this case as my daily driver for my iPhone XS, and here’s my honest assessment.

The case itself is sleek and minimalist. The black color is consistent and doesn’t show smudges easily. The primary selling point, however, is the integrated magnetic ring on the back. This ring allows for convenient attachment to magnetic mounts in cars or on desks. The fit is snug and precise, providing a secure grip for the iPhone XS without adding excessive bulk.

Daily use revealed the case to be surprisingly durable. It provided adequate protection against minor drops and scratches. The magnetic ring performed as advertised, holding my phone firmly in place on my magnetic car mount. There was no noticeable interference with wireless charging. The buttons are easily accessible, although they do require slightly more pressure than the bare phone. Over time, I noticed no significant wear or tear on the case itself. The phone is easy to install and remove from the case.

One minor drawback I noticed is that the ring, while useful, does slightly increase the phone’s thickness. While not overwhelmingly bulky, those looking for an ultra-slim profile might find it too substantial. Additionally, the case doesn’t offer significant protection against impacts from drops on sharp corners; further drop tests would be required to validate this further. However, it successfully protects the device from scratches and minor bumps.

Pros:

• Sleek and minimalist design.
• Effective protection against scratches and minor drops.
• Convenient magnetic ring for mounting.
• Doesn’t interfere with wireless charging.
• Easy installation and removal.

Cons:

• Adds some bulk to the phone.
• Buttons require slightly more pressure to press.
• Limited protection against serious impacts.

Overall, the iPhone X/Xs Protective Back Cover Ring with Magnet Case (Black) is a decent option for those seeking a balance between protection and convenience. The magnetic ring is a valuable addition, and the case offers satisfactory protection for everyday use. However, users expecting robust protection against major drops should look for a more rugged case. I would recommend this case to individuals seeking a functional and stylish solution for their iPhone X/Xs, especially those who frequently use magnetic mounts.
