Great protection with reinforced bumper corners that keep both faces off the table to prevent scratching. The corners also provide great grip to pull out of my pocket. Other than the corners, the case adds no noticeable thickness to the phone while providing protection for the rear camera. Also the sides provide for good drip while not interfering with the swipe from sides on all four sides while using the iPhone Xs Max. Great value for the price and allows the beauty of the gold iPhone to show through nicely.
