With the advancements in technology, especially given the pandemic, so much of my time is spent on my phone. Not only with work, but for answering emails, ordering groceries for pick-up, Amazon necessities, and keeping in touch with my family in other states. My phone is always with me, which curates my unhealthy obsession with getting a new phone case every chance I get! I have impulse bought any and every cute phone case I’ve seen, so I feel like I have a good knowledge of the market and I can attest to the best phone cases out there for the price tag, style, and durability!
One of my favorite phone case brands that I’ve recently stumbled upon is Peel! I’ve been trying to get my phone case obsession to subside, so I’ve been really doing my research before buying. What stuck out to me about Peel was the simplicity of the cases. I’m so weird about flashy cases that may be too much for everyday usage. Peel has timeless colors and even neutral options which is great for people that love that sleek phone case look.
Peel was founded in 2012 and was the very first company to create a super thin, minimalist phone case for the iPhone. Since then, they have researched the market, and have tweaked and expanded their product line to become the best super thin case out there! Their products are inclusive to both Apple and Android users and they sell all sorts of accessories for all your technology needs.
What I disliked about a lot of the phone cases I’ve bought over the years, is the heavy branding on them. There’s nothing that ruins a cute phone case like the brand name across it or a big logo. Peel has absolutely zero branding which I LOVE because it keeps the fresh look of your phone! Phones are expensive these days and we don’t want to cover them with a bulky phone case with branding all over it!
What Peel is popular for is their Peel Super Thin Phone Case, which is a sleek, and form-fitting case. I hate feeling like I’m lugging around a small weight, so I’m loving that this case is so lightweight and gives a barely-there feel. Bulky cases always feel so intrusive and never fit into pockets, so this phone case solved SO many of my problems. This may make you wonder, “Is it even protecting the phone then?” and I would say that this case is the perfect medium. It is not your gross, bulky phone case, but it isn’t naked either. The phone case has a subtle lip to protect the camera and the front screen from scratches, plus I always have Peel’s screen protector on my phone, so this just offers extra protection from that! I wouldn’t say your phone stands a chance if it was dropped from a 5-story building (not that any case would help it then), but this case would definitely protect from daily dings and scratches.
5 REASONS TO LOVE PEEL:
Peel offers a two-year warranty per purchase on all phone cases no matter the cause of the damage or issue!
Peel offers phone cases for both Apple and Android!
Transparent cases are an option for those that like the Apple logo to show through.
Most of Peel’s cases have a matte finish, giving them a sleek look!
The CEO, Marshall Haas, mentioned that Peel is a direct representation of his and his team’s beliefs that we as humans should focus on the simple things in life and the motto that “less = more”.
