How to Choose?

The new iPhone 11 has plenty of case options, but especially when it comes to thin cases. Your only obstacle will be deciding which one to order. We recommend the Spigen Liquid Air Armor Case for the unique air-cushion technology that's built-in for military-grade drop protection. The fact that it's ultra-thin and sports a cool geometric pattern for extra grip is only icing on the cake. For price and slim protection, it doesn't get much better than this case.

If you prefer both protection and unique color choices, consider the Otterbox Symmetry Series, or if you're really into that genuine leather feel, the ESR Real Leather Case is also a great option. It's a hard choice, but you have to make it. Your sleek iPhone 11 is waiting on its sleek new case, so hop to it!
