By

The iPhone X may be a few years old now, but it’s still a gorgeous phone with a stunning 5.8-inch screen that demands protection. What better way to keep your phone safe than with a wallet case? From leather folio cases to card cases with hidden compartments, wallet cases let you carry your cards, ID, and cash whether you’re out for a run, at the gym, or just traveling light. We’ve rounded up some of the best iPhone X wallet cases and covers around to help you find your next case without any of the hard work.

These cases will only fit the iPhone X (2018). If you’re the proud owner of an iPhone XS Max, you might want to check out our roundup of the best iPhone XS Max wallet cases and covers.

Smartish Wallet Slayer Fir Sure Case

Style and substance don’t often go hand in hand, but with this wood-effect wallet case from Smartish, you can tick both boxes. The Wallet Slayer case also comes in an array of other colors, but we love this light wood version, and we think it’s the best wood wallet case you can buy Fir Sure (sorry). There’s space to secure three cards and cash, as well as high-grip textured sides to keep your phone firmly in hand and protective air pockets in each corner that act like airbags should you drop your phone. This ultra-light, durable case is wireless charging compatible too.
