Spigen claims its new ZeroOne cases reveal your Galaxy S25’s inner workings through X-ray vision graphics. They snap on with military-grade protection while barely thickening Samsung’s already wafer-thin flagship. At $49.99, these cases supposedly make your tech transparent without the DIY risk. The design mimics a deep look into the phone’s guts while actually keeping them safely tucked away behind Gorilla Glass and aluminum. And while it’s built for Galaxy devices, this kind of clever, design-meets-function approach is exactly what defines the best MagSafe accessories for iPhone users.

X-Ray Aesthetics That Actually Look Good

The ZeroOne features detailed circuit-board prints mimicking Galaxy’s internal components. Each fake chip and sensor sits within a case skinnier than winter coats. The approach taps into our tech voyeurism – we want to see how the smartphone sausage gets made. Unlike the actual innards of your phone (which resemble a tightly-packed circuit sandwich), these graphics are artfully composed to satisfy your inner geek while remaining visually appealing.

Black Or White, Never Yellow

Unlike boring clear cases that yellow faster than old newspaper, these come in black and white variants with 3D-depth printing. Your $1000 investment finally has something to wear besides the emperor’s new clothes. Anti-yellowing technology keeps it pristine. The multi-layered printing creates a genuine sense of depth that flat designs can’t match. When light hits it just right, the illusion that you’re actually peering through your phone’s exterior becomes surprisingly convincing.

MagFit: Samsung Finally Gets The Magnetic Treatment

The circular magnetic ring brings MagSafe-style connectivity to Samsung through Spigen’s “MagFit” technology. Accessories snap on with that satisfying click instead of precarious balancing. No more janky wireless charger alignment dances. Apple users have enjoyed this magnetic ecosystem since 2020, while Android fans watched from the sidelines. Spigen’s implementation finally delivers the same convenience without requiring a new phone purchase. The ring strength feels comparable to Apple’s original.

Wireless Charging Without Compromise

Wireless charging works without the efficiency drop plaguing most cases. Spigen integrated the magnetic ring directly above the phone’s charging coil. This alignment shows actual engineering thought rather than slapping magnets wherever they fit. The charging speed remains nearly identical to caseless charging in testing. Even thick wallet attachments don’t seem to interfere with charging capability, which is impressive given how finicky wireless charging typically becomes with any obstruction.

Military-Grade Drop Protection

Multiple air cushion corners and TPU bumper frame protect against drops up to 4 feet. The raised lip keeps the screen and camera lenses from kissing concrete. Your expensive phone survives the inevitable fumble without looking like a tank. The protection comes from strategic design rather than brute-force bulk. Spigen’s air cushion technology concentrates impact absorption at the corners, where drops most commonly cause damage, while keeping the overall profile slim.

Precision Engineering For Everyday Use

Every port and button remains accessible through precisely engineered cutouts. The case adds minimal bulk to Samsung’s ultra-slim device. Touch sensitivity remains intact, and buttons maintain their satisfying click response. The slightly textured sides improve grip without collecting pocket lint like some silicone cases do. Even the camera cutout is perfectly aligned and sized to prevent any vignetting or flash reflection issues that plague poorly designed cases.

Glass Sandwich Without The Anxiety

The ZeroOne prevents the anxiety of carrying what amounts to a $1000 glass sandwich. Grip-friendly sides reduce slip potential while maintaining a slim profile. The balance between protection and slenderness hits the sweet spot. Most people drop their phones getting in or out of cars or pulling them from pockets – exactly the scenarios where the ZeroOne’s slightly tactile surface makes a difference. The case transforms a slippery device into something you can confidently handle.

Looking Inside Without Opening Up

The teardown design creates curiosity without voiding warranties. Your phone becomes a conversation starter at coffee shops. Tech enthusiasts appreciate the nod to transparency while everyone else just thinks it looks cool. The graphics reveal components most users never see: the wireless charging coil, battery layout, and circuit board architecture. It’s a clever way to celebrate the engineering inside without actually exposing the fragile components to dust, moisture, and damage.

Not Just For Geeks Anymore

For anyone tired of bland transparent cases or bulky protective tanks, ZeroOne hits a sweet spot few competitors manage. Just don’t expect actual X-ray vision – these aren’t showing your actual phone’s insides, just a designer’s interpretation. Still, the aesthetic appeals equally to tech nerds and style-conscious users who simply want something different. In a world where most phone cases fall into either “boring but practical” or “interesting but useless” categories, finding one that threads both needles feels refreshing.
