This case from Sony for the Xperia X is really cool – you can use apps even while it’s closed. Most cases like this have limited functionality when closed but here you can use everything as normal with full, branded protection.

This case manages to offer maximum protection for the glass-backed Xperia X while looking slick and slim. The fastening is a clever magnetic strip that folds around the back of the device and keeps the screen safe from scratches. There’s also room for one credit card or travel card, and the rubber bumper around the edges still allows access to the thumb print scanner.

This is a truly hardwearing case. Olixar’s ArmourDillo range, no prizes for guessing, are plated style protection for many gadgets and Xperia X is the latest to get the treatment.  We really like the subtle addition of a little plastic stand on the back for landscape video watching – and it’s in two parts, so you can actually remove the entire hard plastic back and still have a rubberised inner shell. Great stuff.

Caseable is a great company that offers accessories in a plethora of great, colourful designs. There’s even the option to create your own designs on any of their products. This pouch for the Xperia X is really smart and you can be as subtle or as vibrant as you want with the customisable options. We quite like this flamingo design, but the choice is really yours.

As the name suggest, this case is very slight while still offering great cover for your Sony Xperia X. It’s clear, not black as the picture may look, so if you’ve got the white, gold or green Xperia X, this won’t dull down your handset. Its corners are slightly prominent and rounded to prevent major damage if and when dropped.

J&D Heavy Duty Xperia X Case

Another rugged, protective case for the Xperia X is this option from J&D. US visitors can find a nearly identical case from Cocomii.  J&D promises shock proof and scratch resistant protection for your device with its silicone and polycarbonate exterior. Like the ArmourDillo, this case also has a convenient stand so you can prop up your device. This case is available in red, blue and black.
