iPhone Xs Camera Guard

thingiverse

UPDATE: 13 June 2020: I discovered that the "notches" on the "inside" to give clearance for the buttons, are in the wrong place. That is now fixed. It fits and works perfectly. ORIGINAL POST: I love how slim and wonderful the iPhone Xs all by itself without a case. But I don't like how the camera protrudes. This causes the camera to always be in contact with the surface, and it causes the iPhone to "tip" because of the off-center camera. So I wanted to protect the protruded camera, and "level" the camera out, without adding a whole bunch of bulk. This is my design. You notice that I gave some clearance for the small buttons that live under this guard on the sides of the camera. It clips onto the iPhone perfectly and holds snug. My iPhone (with the new clip) goes in and out of my pocket 50 times a day with no problem. I love how this clip protects my camera and makes my phone sit level when I put it down on its back. No more tipping. This part won't last forever. I print a new one every couple of months. But that's super easy. Plus I get different colors each time if I want. I hope you like it too. Flip it over to print it, of course, so that the back is flat on the printing surface and the sides stick up off the bed. No Supports necessary. For sure print this with a layer height of 0.1mm. I've always used PLA and it's totally strong enough.
