The iPhone 10 is one of the most expensive phones that have never been made before and it has wireless charging. It cost more than one thousand dollars, so it is better to have a case protector for the phone. This case is made by glass, leather and hard plastic. It helps protect the phone. The case will not interfere with the functioning of the phone. It has the same size as the iPhone 10 in terms of length and width inside of the case. The thickness of the case is about two cm. The case looks exactly like an iPhone 10. The case is open in the front for the screen. The case has scratch resistant clear back genuine leather accents, protective bumper and allows full screen access.

     The case is designed in Colorado but made in china. The glass should be on the back of the phone. The reason is to protect the phone from scratches and also to use a wireless charger when needed without taking off the case. On the glass too, it should be hole on the right top corner for the camera and the light. On the back bottom, there is a leather that will help to put the phone in and out of a pocket. On the side, there is a hard plastic, three buttons and four holes. One of the buttons is to turn the phone on and off and the other two buttons is for the volume. There is a hole on the left side top corner for to silent the phone. On the bottom of the side has three holes. The middle one is for the wire charger and for the headphones, the other two are for the speaker.

The leather can be makes by a leather export. The side where the button is should be soft to make it easy to press. The rest of the side are hard plastic. The leather should be on the back bottom bellow the glass. In the glass should be the apple logo on the middle and next to the leather should be written on their iPhone. The reason is to show that the case is made for iPhone not for other product. Here are some of the images:

As it shown above here, the glass is to protect and make it easy to use a wireless charger. The bottom is made by leather. On the top left corner is the camera and the light. It should be hole over there. In the middle is the apple logo sign and the bottom next to the leather is written iPhone to show the case is for which product. The front view, the hard plastic should be raised to protect the screen. However, it should allow a full access to the screen. It should not mask the front-facing camera and the speaker on the top of the phone

This is the bottom of the case. It has three holes. The middle one is for and headphone or a wire charger. The other two are for speaker. The cover in is made with a hard plastic. The dimension of the case inside have to be the same size with an iPhone10. The thickness is 10mm of outside.

The whole point is to make a product that help protect the iPhone 10 without interfering in it functioning. Because, the phone is made with glass, it is better to protect it against breaking. The phone cost over $1000. A person having no case and it is braking and buying another one, a case for less than 50 dollars can prevent the excessive money spending on another phone.
