You see them more and more often on the street – smartphones dangling from straps, cords, or chains. Whether as a fashionable accessory in a trendy color or a useful companion in hectic everyday life, cell phone cases with lanyards and cell phone chains are an absolute must-have.
But where the idea comes from and why you shouldn't do without this practical accessory in the future, you'll find out in this article.
Where does the idea for a mobile phone case come from?
Yara Jentzsch Dib from Berlin experienced the same thing during her pregnancy as many expectant mothers. Forgetfulness set in, and she was constantly searching for her smartphone, which she had misplaced again. Then she had an idea and quickly made her own neck-worn phone case out of a phone case, two metal rings, and a cord.
A few years later, the time had come, and she founded the company Xouxou . Now, in addition to numerous suppliers, there is also a wide selection of different colors and materials.
Mobile phone always at hand - in every situation
Carrying your phone around is a welcome convenience, especially in hectic everyday life . It can be helpful to be able to quickly look something up, take notes, or answer a call without having to rummage through your bag or backpack. And when rushing from appointment to appointment and call to call at work, having your smartphone handy at all times is a true blessing.
Many other mothers will feel the same way as Yara. Once the baby arrives, you'll have your hands full anyway. Multitasking is the key, and taking a photo or sending a text while pushing a stroller or holding your child becomes child's play with the phone chain. Your smartphone is always with you, without having to be carried in your hand.
But in principle, there are many situations where a crossbody phone isn't a bad option. Be it in the summer when you're wearing your best summer dress (as is often the case, without pockets) and have no idea where to put your smartphone ; or while partying, hiking, or on vacation—especially when you don't want to search for your smartphone for every photo or to check Google Maps on a city trip.
Ultimately, such a lanyard is also a wonderful fashion statement and, with its many colorful models, large selection, and numerous combination options between cell phone case and strap, cord, or chain, it puts the icing on the cake of any outfit.

Coral Connect Case for the reconstruction of a coral reef
As part of our Coral Edition, we launched our first Connect Case for various iPhone models in May. Its unique feature: the strap can be flexibly inserted using a click system , allowing our case to be easily worn with or without the strap. We also deliberately chose the term "Connect" to remind us that we can achieve great things together if we all connect and fight together to preserve our oceans. Therefore, sales of Coral Edition products support EcosystemImpact 's coral project .
The goal is to replant the coral reef off Sumatra, Indonesia, and thereby protect the habitat of thousands of marine creatures. Ourteam in Bali also collects 1 kg of plastic from the island's beaches for every product sold.
