The Most Expensive iPhone XS Cases You Can Get

by

The iPhone XS and XS Max are Apple's most expensive iPhones yet, with the top-of-the-line iPhone XS Max coming in at a cost of $1,449 for 512GB of storage.

If you want to outfit your pricey iPhone with a case that's just as expensive, we've hunted down a list of the most ridiculously priced iPhone XS cases you can get.

Gray's Alter Ego line of cases available in Titanium, Stealth, Gold, and Aurora start at $1,457. The cases are all made from aerospace grade titanium and offer a minimal design with an X shape that covers the back of the iPhone along with protective covers at each of the corners to protect from drops.

The Aurora version of the Alter Ego case, priced at $2,763 for the XS and $3,000 for the XS Max, features hand-torched titanium to achieve a colorful finish, with each piece offering a unique array of colors. The Aurora and the Gold Alter Ego cases are limited to 100 pieces, while there are 500 of the Stealth edition available. The cases can be purchased from the Gray website.

Robin Williams had a line about, “Cocaine is God’s way of telling you you’re making too much money.”

We seem to have found a new indicator.

Tasteless looks aside: If I could afford such a case why would I buy one instead of just using my iPhone without it and buy a new one in case I brake it?

Is there something wrong with me? I just don't see the need for these frankly hideous and tasteless cases.

I’ll just stick with the Apple-branded $50 leather case, thank you very much.

I look forward to Juli testing and reviewing all of these cases (like she did last year for the X).
