FAQs
What makes the GEAR4 Battersea case so protective?
The case incorporates D3O® impact protection technology, a smart material that hardens on impact to absorb and dissipate shock, protecting your phone from drops up to 16ft.
Is this case compatible with wireless charging?
Yes, the GEAR4 Battersea case is designed to be compatible with wireless charging (Qi-enabled) for the iPhone X/XS.
What is the difference between Polycarbonate and TPU materials?
Polycarbonate offers rigidity and impact resistance, while Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) provides flexibility and shock absorption. The combination offers balanced protection and durability.
How do I clean the GEAR4 Battersea case?
Clean the case using a soft, damp cloth. For tougher grime, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by rinsing with a clean damp cloth and air drying.
Can I use this case with a screen protector?
Yes, the case is designed to be compatible with most standard screen protectors for the iPhone X/XS. Ensure the screen protector is applied correctly before putting the case on.
What does 'drop resistant up to 16ft' mean?
It means the case has been tested and is designed to protect your phone from damage if it is dropped from a height of up to 16 feet (approximately 4.8 meters).
Does the blue color fade easily?
The case features a monochromatic surface coloration. While generally resistant, like all materials, prolonged exposure to harsh UV light or certain chemicals could potentially affect the color over time. Regular cleaning and avoiding extreme conditions are recommended.
Troubleshooting
Case feels loose on the phone
Ensure the phone is correctly seated within the case. Remove the phone and re-apply, ensuring all edges are firmly snapped into place, especially around the corners and buttons.
Difficulty accessing ports or buttons
Verify that you have the correct model case for your iPhone X/XS. Ensure no debris is obstructing the openings. The case is designed for precise fit, so misalignment can cause temporary access issues.
Smudges or marks on the case surface
Wipe the case with a soft, slightly damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by a thorough rinse with a clean damp cloth and air drying.
Yellowing or discoloration over time
While materials are durable, prolonged exposure to UV light or certain chemicals can cause discoloration. Clean the case regularly and avoid leaving it in direct sunlight for extended periods.
