The 8X has a really impressive camera and runs super fast too but like any smartphone it could do with some extra protection to keep it looking fresh out\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0box for longer. With that in mind here&#8217;s my three favourite accessories for the HTC 8X:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/flexishield-skin-for-htc-8x-black-37788\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-29264\" title=\"FlexiShield Skin for HTC 8X\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37788-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37788-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37788-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37788-60x60.jpg 60w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37788.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The <strong>Flexishield Skin for HTC 8X\u00a0<\/strong>fits the 8X like a glove offering daily protection against bumps, scrapes and scratches. Manufactured from a special tough gel, the Flexishield case is as flexible as a silicone case but as durable as a tough case, so you have the best of both worlds.<\/p>\n<p>The material used in the Flexishield <a title=\"HTC 8X case\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/htc\/8x\/cases\">HTC 8X case<\/a> also adds a small amount of grip to the case, so those butterfingers moments are a thing\u00a0of\u00a0the past. As expected, the Flexishield allows access to all the vital ports and features of the 8X too, so you don&#8217;t need to remove it from\u00a0the\u00a0case in order to charge it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/mfx-screen-protector-htc-8x-37799\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-29268\" title=\"MFX Screen Protector\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37799-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37799-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37799-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37799.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Second on the list is the <strong>MFX Screen Protector<\/strong> &#8211; although the display of the 8X is made from Gorilla Glass which is ultra protective it never hurts to add that extra layer of protection to the screen of the smartphone.<\/p>\n<p>The MFX \u00a0<a title=\"HTC 8X screen protector\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/htc\/8x\/screen-protectors\">HTC 8X screen protector<\/a> helps to create an extra barrier between the display\u00a0of\u00a0the 8X and anything Mother Nature tries to throw at it: from dust and dirt to sand and grit. This keeps the screen free from any damage and scratches for longer and ensures that the sensitivity and\u00a0visibility\u00a0of the display aren&#8217;t hampered.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/tech21-htc-8x-snap-case-black-37050\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-29269\" title=\"Tech21 HTC 8X Snap Case\" src=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37050-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37050-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37050-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/02\/37050.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Finally, the <strong>Tech21 HTC 8X Snap Case\u00a0<\/strong>keeps the back, sides and corners of the 8X fully protected from daily and more hard wearing damage. The Tech21 <a title=\"HTC 8X cover\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mobilefun.co.uk\/htc\/8x\/covers\">HTC 8X cover<\/a> uses impactology with D30 technology to add an extra protective layer of material which hardens upon impact; therefore keeping the 8X safer. The Tech21 case also uses a rubber seal to absorb all shocks caused by bumps.<\/p>\n<p>Again this cover includes cut-outs for all the important ports and features of the 8X so that it doesn&#8217;t need to be\u00a0removed\u00a0from the case to be used, so is always safe from damage. The case is durable and designed for all round protection, making it our winner.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Which HTC 8X case styles make your top 3?
