With a rather cool ouroboros-inspired design where the snake wraps effortlessly around the phone before eating its own tail, this particular case isn’t made for protection; it’s made for personality. I couldn’t find too many details on the casemaker in general, but whoever designed or manufactured this case gets full marks for building something so audacious it has my heart!
Most bumper cases do the bare minimum – they guard the phone from the sides and from the back without necessarily cladding your phone completely. To that extent, this Serpent Hollow Case fulfils those exact qualifications too, snapping to the phone’s corners to give it a secure fit. It doesn’t necessarily guard the edges, but if your phone did fall down, chances are the bumpers will absorb the damage before your phone’s chassis will. And if it falls on its back, the gorgeous snake wrapped around your phone will absorb all impact before your camera array will.

The case features a single serpent wrapped around the back of your phone, with its sinewy body covering the backplate in a way that looks gorgeous, although I’d argue it probably isn’t great to hold. Nothing about this case makes sense or is ergonomic – in fact, it’s probably really weird to hold on to, and I’m sure placing your phone screen-side up on any surface will result in a horribly uneven experience… but what the case lacks in practicality, it makes up for in style… and quite like snapping a Labubu to your handbag is a bit of a social flex, this case seems to achieve the same thing too, making people go ooh and ahh as they look at the serpent guarding your phone.
Pretend it’s a black mamba and the case is perfect for Kobe stans, pretend it’s Nagini and you’ve got the ideal Slytherin case. The case can be found on AliExpress and Temu, although the prices and designs vary greatly. US readers will also need to factor tariffs into the pricing, given that the de minimis exception has now ended.
