Apple’s brand new iPhone XS is a gorgeous device that comes in a beautiful glass design with a stainless steel frame, and this time around, Apple has made the glass even stronger and more durable to protect it from scratches and scrapes. However, it’s still a glass phone, and at a starting price of $999, I’m sure you wouldn’t want to end up scratching or breaking your iPhone XS. So, if you’re looking for a case that will add protection to your iPhone while giving it a luxurious feel, here are the 10 best iPhone XS leather cases you can buy:
1. Case Mate Barely There iPhone XS Leather Case
I’m not kidding, this case is called the “Barely There” case. Not because it’s barely there, but because at just 2mm thin, this case is the closest you can get to having a case that’s barely there while still having a case to protect your phone from scratches and scrapes. The case is made from genuine leather, and fully supports wireless charging, so you won’t have to compromise with wirelessly charging your brand new iPhone XS. Plus, the case comes with a lifetime warranty. The Case Mate Barely There Leather case is available in three colors: Cardinal (red, basically), Butterscotch (brown, basically), and Black (this is actually black, nothing fancy here).
If you’re looking for a case that can hold a card or two for you along with the iPhone XS, Case Mate also has the Barely There Leather Folio case that you can check out. This too comes in three different colors: Black, Brown, and Cardinal. Plus, just like the regular leather case, the leather folio case is also compatible with wireless charging.

There’s a single vertical slot that can hold a card on the inside of the flap that keeps the screen covered.
