The best Sony Xperia 1 II cases:

Editor’s note: We will continue to update this list of the best cases for the Sony Xperia 1 II as more become available.

Olixar Carbon Fiber

While you want to ensure that your Sony Xperia 1 II stays safely protected, you probably don’t want to add too much bulk. This case is slim and flexible, and a raised lip protects the screen and camera units. It won’t provide too much protection against sharp scratches, but the carbon fiber texture should help to minimize the appearance of any damage.

Spigen Liquid Crystal

Spigen’s Liquid Crystal is another great option if you want a thin case and the clear design helps you show off your device. The TPU material is not only easy to attach, but it also provides a degree of air cushioning in each corner. A thin lip helps protect the screen and cameras, and precise cutouts allow easy access to the buttons and ports.

Anccer Thin Fit

A rugged polycarbonate case stands up to drops and scratches better than a TPU bumper, and Anccer’s Thin Fit offers protection with a pop of color. The case is currently available in four bright finishes that should keep your Sony Xperia 1 II safe and sound. However, while the back of your phone should stay safe, the button cutouts are larger than in some other cases, so make sure to be careful!

KWMobile TPU case

The matte black TPU case from KWMobile adds extra grip to your Sony Xperia 1 II, so you shouldn’t have to worry about the slippery glass surface. In addition, it boasts high-quality shock-absorbing rubber that will stand up to bumps and drops while keeping a slim form factor. Although the case doesn’t appear to have thicker ridges around the screen and camera, the case itself provides a thicker layer of rubber cushioning.

KWMobile Wallet case

Why carry around a phone and a wallet when you can combine them in one stylish package? KWMobile also offers a faux leather and fabric wallet case with card slots, a cash pocket, and a magnetic clasp. Sony gave the Xperia 1 II a long 21:9 screen that should be perfect for streaming when you flip the wallet case into kickstand mode. A TPU bumper helps to keep your phone securely in place while you go about your day.

Spigen Rugged Armor

The Spigen Rugged Armor is a sleek TPU case that offers decent shock protection without adding much bulk to your phone. It has a carbon fiber design at the top and bottom, though the real protection comes from the Air Cushion technology and a durable interior spider web pattern. In addition, Spigen’s Rugged Armor case features tactile buttons and precise cutouts for a comfortable and secure experience.
