Inexpensive cases that offer some degree of protection for the Sony Xperia Z2 are widely available. They add a dash of color to the phone and give you that extra bit of coverage you’ll want when carrying something as pricey as this super phone. The Terrapin Hybrid Rubberized Sony Xperia Z2 case is one great, affordable example.Best of all, this case is just $5.95 [Affiliate Link] on Amazon.

In keeping with the inexpensive nature of this case, it comes in a simple plastic bag rather than in fancier, not to mention pricier, packaging. Since the box (or bag) goes right into the recycling bin, I couldn’t have cared less.

All that is inside the bag is the case. That means you’ll want to go out and purchase a tempered glass screen protector for the Z2. That is especially true since this case offers zero lay-on-the-table protection.

The company describes the case this way:

Constructed from hard plastic with a soft rubberized outer finish this case provides optimum protection and convenience for your Sony Xperia Z2. The smooth surface finish means no snagging in pockets or lint build-up like with silicon skins. Exact perfect fitting for the device with its custom cutouts. You will be able to operate the functions on your device and keep it safe with maximum protection. This stunningly attractive case is the ultimate compliment to the classy look of your device.

The case is thin and light and it has a nice, soft-touch feel that helps you maintain your grip when holding it.
