See-through, so your phone shows
Clear is for people who chose their phone's colour and want to keep seeing it. A clear case protects the phone without hiding it, a clear grip or stand barely shows on the back, and a clear bumper on a watch keeps the watch's own finish in view. Clear also suits stickers and photos slipped behind the case, and it is the base for glitter cases that sparkle over the phone's colour.
How a product gets onto this page
Products are filed here when they come in clear or transparent, as a colour choice or in their own name. A case offered in clear and in colours is on this page and on each of its colour pages, so the first photo may show a colour: choose clear from the colour choices before you add it to your basket.

Why clear cases turn yellow
The one weakness of a clear case is that clear plastic slowly turns yellow with sunlight and heat. The yellow is in the material itself, so it does not wash off. Cases sold as anti-yellowing have additives that slow it down. You can slow it further by keeping the phone out of strong sun and hot cars. The anti-yellowing clear cases page gathers them, and the guide to phone case materials explains why it happens.
Questions people ask about clear phone accessories
Will a clear case work with a MagSafe-compatible charger?
A clear case with magnets built in, sold as MagSafe-compatible, holds to a magnetic charger. A plain clear case without magnets still lets most wireless chargers work if it is not too thick.
Is a clear waterproof pouch safe underwater?
Read the rating its maker gives. An IP rating ending in 8 has no fixed depth: the maker states it. The guide to IP ratings explains.
