Best Eco-Friendly iPhone 12 and 12 Pro Cases

Looking for an environmentally friendly iPhone case? Here are some "green" options that are recycled, compostable and more.

Phone case manufacturers are doing their best to create products from recycled or biodegradable materials to curb their carbon footprint. These eco-friendly phone cases now only protect your phone when you need them to but also don't harm the environment when you discard them. Some of these cases are made out of both recycled plastic and plant-based materials that are biodegradable.

Eco cases can look and feel slightly different from standard thermoplastic polyurethane, or TPU, cases -- particularly the wooden ones -- but most people wouldn't even realize you were using an eco-friendly case unless you tell them. Many offer good drop protection, and all the cases on this list are compatible with wireless chargers.

It's also worth noting that many of these cases are available for earlier iPhone models, including the iPhone 11 and iPhone XS, and many of those cases are discounted.
