The Moto Z4 is touted as the world’s most budget-friendly 5G smartphone on the market. That doesn’t mean that the phone is packing lackluster specs, however, especially given the Z4 boasts a 48-megapixel rear camera and one of the largest batteries in the game.
Motorola’s Z4 phablet stands out for its superior longevity. To extend the lifespan of your Moto Z4 even further, however, we recommend investing in one of these durable, impact-absorbing cases.
Spigen Rugged Armor Case
The Spigen Rugged Armor has become the go-to case for many — it follows a textbook design that you honestly can’t go wrong with. The case is made with a flexible TPU material, but Spigen adds some webbed patterns here and there to make it grippy and protective at the same time. A matte finish throughout the case helps prevent fingerprints and dirt from sticking. The buttons are tactile and feel clicky when pressed. Note that as with many of the other cases mentioned on our list, using the Rugged Armor will negate the ability to attach a Moto Mod.
CaseWe Bumper for Moto Mods
Not all cases will prevent you from taking full advantage of what your phone has to offer. After all, you’re dropping the big bucks for it, so you should get your money’s worth. With the CaseWe bumper case, you’ll be able to keep your Moto Z4 protected and attach a Moto Mod at the same time. Or just use the case as a stand-alone and appreciate the beauty of the phone’s matte glass finish. The CaseWe bumper offers an ample amount of protection all around the phone and comes with a lifetime warranty so you can always swap it out for a new one after some wear and tear.
Anccer Hard Slim Case
Perhaps you fancy a more slim option. The hard-shell case from Anccer comes in a variety of colors, but most importantly, it doesn’t add much bulk to the Moto Z4. The case is has a silky-smooth matte texture, allowing it to rest comfortably in your hand. It’s only 0.3mm thick but will keep your device free of scratches on the sides and back. As for the front, you won’t have any issues finding a compatible screen protector being that the case doesn’t interfere with the fit. While the case isn’t recommended for the clumsy, it’s ideal for those who want something more casual and minimalist.
Otterbox Commuter Series Lite Case
Otterbox has long been a reliable provider of smartphone protection, and that reputation is alive and well in the Commuter Series Lite. It’s made from a hard and protective polycarbonate shell combined with a synthetic rubber slipcover that provides extra grip for your fingers. It’s the lighter and slimmer version of the Commuter Series, which means it’s perfect for everyday use, and is easy to slip into and out of a pocket or bag. It comes with Otterbox’s Certified Drop Plus Protection and a lifetime warranty. We’ve highlighted the Ocean Way Blue variant, but it also comes in black. It’s on the more expensive side where Moto Z4 cases are concerned, but it’s worth paying extra for Otterbox protection.
Kugi Ultra-Slim Case
Not everyone wants to slap a big and bulky case on their phone, and Kugi’s super-slim clear case is perfect if that’s you. It’s made from flexible and durable TPU, which has absorbent qualities that mean it’s good for absorbing shocks and bumps. However, since it’s thinner than most other TPU cases, you’ll get slightly less protection than you would from a thicker case. Still, it also protects well against scratches and other minor hazards, and it’s completely clear — which is perfect for when you want to show off your phone. It’s extremely cheap, too, so you won’t be breaking the bank by springing for it.
Dretal Carbon Fiber-style Rugged Case
Slim cases don’t always have to lack protective qualities, and this rugged case with carbon fiber-stylings from Dretal is a great example of that. It’s made from TPU, but it’s tougher and thicker than an ultra-slim case, and you can expect a correspondingly higher level of protection. It won’t be as protective as a more expensive case, but it’s tough enough to defend against most everyday threats. It’s slim and looks good thanks to the brushed metal finish and carbon fiber-style panels at either end, and it has raised edges to protect your screen and camera lenses against dirt and scratches. Best of all, it’s available at a bargain price.
Huness Flower Clear Case
Who says protection can’t also look good? If you want your case to provide an extra layer of style while also protecting against scratches and bumps, then check out this case from Huness. The combination of a TPU bumper and an acrylic black plate means a strong level of protection against scratches and good shock-absorption, while the clear hard back means your phone’s style shines through, enhanced by the stylish floral design. The softer TPU frame means added grip, while the case’s slim build means it’s easy to slip into a pocket. This style isn’t expensive either, making it a real steal.
