If you're thinking of getting an iPhone Air and would like a case I've tried a bunch and have thoughts. 😄

Cases

The Apple Bumper (2/5)

iPhone Air Bumper – Light Blue
Slim and light, the iPhone Air Bumper dazzles on it’s own. Pair with the Crossbody Strap to wear your iPhone hands-free. Buy now at apple.com.

The bumper is back! Sort of. The sequel isn't as good as the original. I found it hard to get on the device and immediately took it off.

The new edition feels more like plastic and is needlessly thick. It adds so much extra material to the outside of the device that it feels pointless. I had high hopes this would be my goto case and instead was a bulky letdown.

Beats iPhone Air Case (4/5)

Beats iPhone Air Case with MagSafe and Camera Control — Granite Gray
The gray Beats iPhone Air Case with MagSafe & Camera Control is thin, light and optimized for shock absorption. Buy now at apple.com.

This is what's currently on my phone.

I think it's the best option that apple provides. My only complaint is the material. It too is thick and plasticy in a slippery way. I wish it was thinner and felt stickier in my hand.

The Apple iPhone Air Case (1/5)

iPhone Air Case with MagSafe – Shadow
Complete the look with the dark and remarkably slim iPhone Air Case with MagSafe. Compatible with the Crossbody Strap. Buy now at apple.com.

This case feels pointless. I don't know why you'd buy it. Pick another option or buy a different phone.

Pitaka iPhone Air Case (4.5/5)

Sunset Moonrise Phone Cases | PITAKA
Make your phone stand out with PITAKA Sunset Moonrise cases. These cases utilize premium aramid fiber to capture the enchanting moments of sunset and moonrise, protecting your device while adding unique aesthetics.

If you like a super thin case then this is the best option. It's almost perfect. The woven patter feels great when you hold it and there's no bulk.

I wish they had more color pattern options for the Air – the other devices have better patterns. I also wish they did integrated buttons instead of cutouts.

Mujjo Leather iPhone Air Case (4/5)

Full Leather Case iPhone Air - Premium Quality Case | Mujjo
Style and protection redefined by Mujjo: 2-Year-Guarantee & International Shipping —shop today!

If you like a leather case this is by far my favorite.

They lose points for the needless double branding: "Mujjo by Troubadour." I also wish they didn't do a cutout for the camera button and the way the camera is wrapped is a little strange,

Other Accessories

Magsafe Battery Pack (4/5)

iPhone Air MagSafe Battery
The iPhone Air MagSafe Battery fits comfortably in your pocket, even while charging — for up to 65 percent more battery life. Buy now at apple.com.

It's literally a second iPhone Air battery you can snap on the phone for when you're travelling or need extra battery life. Works great and you get to see charge levels integrated into the other battery levels.

The only downside is that it won't fit on other phones because the lens systems get in the way.

AirPods Pro 3 (4.5/5)

AirPods Pro 3
AirPods Pro 3 with heart rate sensing during workouts and the world’s best in-ear Active Noise Cancellation (ANC). Free shipping and engraving at apple.com.

I have AirPods in my ears almost all day. These are more comfortable and sound better. What else could you ask for.

The only annoyance has nothing to do with the AirPods at all. It's their case. It's literally 1mm larger in each direction
