What is Backwards Compatibility?

What is Backwards Compatibility?

So, we have new cases for new iPhones! :tada::tada: 

But what about all of you with older phone models? We didn’t forget you. Our newly designed cases are meant to be “backwards compatible” - meaning the new iPhone 11 series was specifically designed to fit older model phones (specifically, iPhone XS/X, XR, and XS Max).

Some of you have commented that the camera holes aren’t a perfect fit for older models. So why did Sonix decide to go this backwards compatibility route? 

  • If you want to get the new phone down the line, but still want a new case now, you don’t have to worry about changing your new case for your new phone. The new camera holes are able to accomodate both styles - thereby extending the use of your newest case to both this year’s and last year’s iPhones.
  • We still carry several styles in the iPhone XS, XR, and XS Max (only) - so if the camera holes are really a concern, you've got options.


So, let’s break it down:

XS/X - fits in iPhone 11 Pro

XR - fits in 11

XS Max - fits in 11 Pro Max
