Incipio Award Winning Compostable Organicore Phone Case

I’ve had a few phone cases usually plastic, usually purchased conveniently either at a mobile phone stand or in the local charity shop. I even had one that was sensitive to heat and changed colour, a gift, although it didn’t protect my screen when my phone dropped to the floor as I got out the car, perhaps a three foot drop and a £150 bill.

I’d read a snoop about this Californian company Incipio and all they do is phone covers. The key for them protection for your phone from 8ft.

I did read a lot of phone cover reviews although it is difficult to decipher and decode the good from the clearly not so good with all the different opinions, all the different options, all the different claims and all the different prices.

In the end I saw this one by chance, I’d heard about the company already from someone I have got to know on here and the most important factor for me now retired it was really cheap.

The beauty of finding out about Incipio a company never ordinarily on my radar when I spotted this beauty for £4 I knew I was buying it. I have since seen this exact phone case on Amazon for £12.99. To buy the Organicore clear phone case on the Incipio website it is $45.00 reduced to $25.00 and completely sold out. The Organicore for I phone 13 pro exactly like mine is regular price $39.99 on sale for $21.99 and again completely sold out.

So about the case. It clips on easily and is VERY sturdy it was difficult to get the phone out once in. It’s eco-friendly, made from plants and although I haven’t tested it myself the 8 ft. of drop protection guarantee seems to hold up in the reviews I read. Every Organicore product is guaranteed to break down completely in a proper compostable environment, which I love leaving only good stuff behind but it won’t disintegrate in your hands something I’ve heard about other eco phone cases.

I am also happy to support a brand giving back to the environment, for every Organicore case sold, one tree will be planted in partnership with Eden Reforestation Projects.

The case might not be aesthetically the best looking, a bit like generic hospital food containers or plastic bathroom accessories, toilet brush holder springs to mind, think about melamine Bakelite cookware from the 1950s and you are close to the reality, however it is very light and easy to hold, feels good to the touch and the most important thing it protects the phone.

I am usually wary of ethical brands selling very successfully on Amazon as this is a bit of a disconnect for me and kind of makes them less credible although I also understand the challenges good brands face trying to grow online so Amazon becomes the only option however unpalatable that may be for sustainable business leaders.

The beauty, once you know the brand you want like me you can wait until it pops up in an unexpected place new in the box for only £4.
