Takeaway: All-around protection, doubles battery life, easy to use, wireless charging.

The battery case comes with a tempered glass screen protector and a brief instruction sheet. The glass protector is simple to install though, a little tricky because you don't get any guide stickers to help you. However, once installed the glass is clear, durable, and scratch resistant. The case is a slide-in style shell case with a thick backside that houses the 4000 mAh battery (the iPhone X comes with a 2716 mAh internal battery). It just about doubles the thickness, weight, and battery life of the iPhone X. The back has a brushed nylon textured feel which is less slippery than the native glass back of the iPhone X. There's also a cutout for the camera and a power button in the left hand corner. Short pressing the button briefly displays the battery life of the case using 4 LEDs in the bottom right corner. Inside the case is a plain matte surface that is not padded. At the bottom of the inside is a flexible Lightning connector that plugs into your phone. This type of connector should be less susceptible to damage than a rigid connector which tends to bend, loosen, or snap over time. The case itself uses Apple's Lightning connector for charging but does not come with a charging cable; you'll need to use the one that came with your phone.

Alternately, the case also supports wireless Qi charging and if you have a compatible wireless charging pad, the case will charge when you set it down on the charging surface. Installing the phone in the case takes only a few seconds and the flexible connector makes it easy to line it up with the phone's Lightning port. The case fits the iPhone X snugly and the ridged sides give your hands a bit of extra grip on the phone. To charge your phone using the external battery, just long press the button on the back of the case. The cutout for the camera does not obstruct the lens and the rubberized buttons are fairly easy to press to use the volume and sleep keys. Overall, the case works well. When used with the screen protector, it provides side, front, and back protection against drops, scratches, and drops and the battery delivers at least 1 full charge for your phone on the go. It is easy to use and charges fine wirelessly. It does adds a bit of bulk and extra weight but not a ton.

Takeaway: Thin, simple to install, protective and durable.

You'll receive two glass screen protectors and two sets of the application accessories. In the accessories pouch you'll find a microfiber cleaning cloth, an alcohol wipe, and dust and application guide stickers. The glass screen protector is pretty thin and very clear. I wasn't able to scratch the glass surface using a pen or a set of keys which it will probably encouter in a pocket or bag at some point.

Installation is pretty quick using the included accessories. The only trouble I had was getting the guide stickers to stay on the glass when I was using them to "save" the position of the screen before sticking it down. The plastic film on the back of the protector was stuck on pretty tight and pulling it off unseated the guide stickers more than once which was a bit annoying. But, once installed the glass protector performed flawlessly. The glass looks and feels just like the original iPhone screen and fits in most cases that don't already have a built-in screen protector. Just note that it's not an edge-to-edge screen protector and it may leave a bit of a gap between the edge of the glass and the case that you're using. The 3D touch and sensitivity do not appear to be affected at all by this extra layer. There's also a cutout on top to allow interference-free use of the front camera and sensors. When combined with a case, you'll have all-over protection for your iPhone X.
