By now, I’ve gone through hundreds or maybe thousands of phone cases in my career. While some have practical applications, like the drop protection you get with Otterbox cases and the extra battery endurance of a Mophie battery case, I’ve come across novel ones too — like selfie cases that let me use the superior rear cameras instead of the traditional selfie one.However, they’re all obsolete for me because of the innovative feature I found with the Xtrem Inno case for the iPhone 17 Pro. On the surface, it looks like any other generic case I’d find on Amazon, but it ingeniously packages an e-ink display that makes it the most customizable case I’ve ever come across.After using it for over a week, I can say you won’t ever want to go back to anything else. Here is what makes it so special.A design just for you
(Image credit: Disney / Future)Phone cases shouldn’t be boring, they should be an extension of your personality. That’s what I love most about the Xtrem Inno. At its core, the case is built around offering a way to make the design uniquely mine. There’s a circular cutout on the back that houses a color e-ink display, which I can customize with any design I want.Since I attended a World Cup game, I thought it’d be great to use an image of Homer Simpson I found online for the occasion. The app makes the process a breeze because I can take literally any image and send it wirelessly to the e-ink display. The transfer takes less than 30 seconds, leaving me with a completely new case design.
