Casetify’s May the Fourth lineup is here to bring Star Wars to your Android phone
Star Wars' official-unofficial holiday May the 4th has once again arrived — that’s no disruption in the Force you’re feeling. That means plenty of events for the day itself as well as some brand-new merchandise sneaking its way out of Imperial (corporate) strongholds and being shared among the Rebel Alliance. To that end, Casetify is kicking off May the 4th by opening sales of itsCasetify x Star Wars Collection.
We got our first look at this collection, centered on the original trilogy, late last month, and knowing the server-crashing fervor Star Wars fans can muster, Casetify got things going early with a waitlist. This was both to prevent website failures on the holiday itself and to give super-fans a place in line to get one of a thousand limited-edition aluminum Millennium Falcon cases — which is only available for the iPhone 12 and 13 series.
The regular edition Millennium Falcon case is available for the Samsung Galaxy S22 series, and four cases based on original trilogy posters and the iconic binary sunset on Tattoine are out for the following phones:
Perhaps the coolest part of these cases is that rather than being limited to basic black, almost all cases come in two styles for each phone. For Pixels, you can get the poster cases in either matte or transparent black, which makes for some very interesting combos with the Pixel 6 colorways. Similarly, the binary sunset design has options for transparent black or pink for Samsung phones — along with a Phantom Purple exclusive to the S21 line that meshes marvelously with the design.
Case prices for the open edition cases range from $40 up to $65 depending on your model, while the limited edition iPhone case sits at a Sith-level evil $149.
It’s rare and wonderful to see Pixels included in series like these, but Casetify told Android Police it is actively working to include more Android phones in its collaborations due to customer feedback and requests over the last year. See, my fellow case nerds? Companiescanlisten when enough Android users ask for cases that fit their phones.
