Introduction

Until now, there is no announcement for Librem 5 cases, but a phone needs this protection. Also, a case manufacturer can never fully meet the expectations of all customers, because everybody has other preferences.

Have you ever seen a case with an epaper display, a solar cell, an led matrix, your favorite slogan, the logo of your (free software) community or even with a software defined radio? But it would be very cool to hav ea case with such features.

So don't wait for someone else to create your favorite phone case and get your own hands dirty!
