You Bought a 0.02mm Thick Phone Case, What Were You Expecting?
So, it seems most of the negative reviews are written by people who weren't exactly sure what they were buying, or people who believe in magic or something. There are natural drawbacks to using a very thin phone case. If you understand these drawbacks then this case is excellent.Protection:First, it's a 0.02mm thick phone case made of plastic. In other words, it's EXTREMELY THIN. This should go without saying but, if you use this case just assume that drop protection is essentially non-existent. If you are someone who is very prone to dropping your phone, this case isn't for you.However, if you've ever put your bare phone onto a desk, for example, you may notice over time that that alone can cause scratches to form on your phone. These tiny scratches most often form toward the bottom portion of the rear of the phone, or the edges of the phone screen depending on if you place the phone down on it's back, or screen. This case prevents that, specifically.Magsafe Compatibility:They aren't lying when they say it's compatible with Magsafe chargers. However, the strength is slightly affected, naturally. There is no magnet built into the case, and you're putting a layer of plastic between the phone and the Magsafe charger. This will obviously affect the strength. As you can see in my photos it's still strong enough to support the weight of the phone. However, if you use a Magsafe charger in your car then you should not trust that it'll hold in case of a sudden change in direction, such as hitting a pothole, going over a speedbump too quickly, or turning sharply and quickly. If you require a very strong Magsafe hold then get a case that has magnets in it.The good:- Offers basic scratch protection.- Keeps phone nice and thin. I recommend the "blackout" color if you want your phone to look super minimal. Looks awesome.- Fits very well (as long as you don't remove and put it back on repeatedly).- There is the SLIGHTEST lip around the screen and the camera. So, it protects the screen and lenses from tiny dust specks on your desk or nightstand.The bad:- The case is very thin and made of plastic. Now, this isn't really a bad thing if you understand that it doesn't offer much physical protection. But, there is one thing: stretching. The plastic will stretch slightly overtime if you repeatedly put on and take off the case. This isn't to say NEVER take the case off, just don't do it too frequently. I don't blame the manufacturer for this. This is just a natural result of the case being extremely thin and made of plastic. I'm not sure if there's really any way for the manufacturer to fix this issue aside from making the case thicker, which defeats the purpose.In conclusion, this case isn't for everyone. It's for people who prioritize maintaining the form factor and look of their phone above all else, and just want the most minimal of protection. It will protect from scratches from your desk or whatever you put it down on. That's it.This case is actually the thinnest case available on the market to my knowledge. If you want something thinner then go for a Dbrand skin. If simply want protection for the back of the phone and can be removed easily, then go for a Suti phoneback.5/5, highly recommend, but with some caveats. Just know what you're buying.

Stay away. Cheap plastic. It stretched after 1 month.
Stretched out after one month. Doesn’t fix the phone anymore. The hot cold temperature is very impactful on this product. I did not put it in direct sunlight. It was just a normal air conditioning and heating around the house. It stretched out the product it no longer works. Do not buy this.

An Honest Review...
I take my iPhone cases seriously.First things first: the Packaging. I thought there was an actual iPhone in the package. See photo, it arrives in a fancy box that is padded, and the folding top cover magnetically closes the box. I mean, I was very impressed, but I would have been happy with a simple plastic bag. It was nice to see how much they care for their product and their brand. The truth is, I'm going to throw this box away if I decide to keep it.Second: the Product. It's not exactly clear. It is slightly opaque, but - when it's on my phone I can easily see the Apple logo on the back. My iPhone 16 Pro is Titanium so I can easily see the edges are clear and the back nicely.Third: the Fit. It fits perfectly! It is so thin that when I look at it from above I don't even notice I have a cover, which is what I wanted to see. It feels great. It is sort of a slippery plastic which is also what I wanted since it easily slips into my back pocket. So great job in the "fit" department. My iPhone looks like it doesn't have a case.I've had the case on for three days, and although I treat my iPhone with kid gloves, I handle it with care, I always gently place it down on a hard surface, there are already teeny tiny scratches that probably most people won't notice, but someone like me with OCD will see them. I'm assuming they are from slipping into and out of my jeans pocket? I don't know, but I'm giving this case a month long test to see how much, if any scratches show up. If it's too crazy with scratches, it's going back before the time is up with Amazon.I'm happy with the initial vibe of this case. I do give it a five-star review for now, and will update after 30 days. It is very expensive at $35.00 which caught me by surprise, but maybe if they did not invest in a package that would protect an actual iPhone maybe the price can be brought down to $12.99? Just a pro-tip to the manufacturer.

Not worth the price
While the case is very sleek while new, it very quickly deteriorates. It’s been 4 months only since I bought it and the case is loose, heavily scratched and my phone feels safer without it. It’s truly a shame that you’d have to pay 2x or almost 3x the price of a cheap case and have the same outcome. I would not recommend buying if you like other options

Weak for magsafe
Nice case, nice feel and thin as described, but no good for magsafe car mounts. The case is just enough to make the connection weak and the phone falls on floorboard. If they add a magnetic circle like the thicker case, this would be perfect.

THIS CASE IS TRASH !!!
Do NOT buy this case ! I bought it last year in October, it’s been only half a year ! the case has twisted ,it’s thin , not much enough protective for the iPhone and the phone just fell from the car mount onto the floor ….. screen got broken!!! unbelievable

Transparent is actually cloudy. Peel customer assistance is zero
I feel for the marketing on TT and ordered it. Transparent is actually cloudy. The case is sturdy and scratch resistant so I’ll give it that. I emailed Peel to ask a question about the transparency 3 months ago and no response despite their message “we’ll be with you shortly.”

The reigning champion of minimalist iPhone cases
I really like the feel of this case. I’ve had a number of Peel cases over the years and they’ve never let me down. I’m more concerned about little scratches than big cracks or shattered glass (that’s what AppleCare is for) and so this case is perfect for that. Not too bulky. Doesn’t start to feel weird over time (like Apple’s silicon cases.)Also, the MagSafe still works perfectly. I put my phone into that sideways display mode at night and it stays suspended on its magnet without issue.
