Motorola has unveiled the Motorola One 5G Ace, a follow-up to last year’s Motorola One 5G. The new phone streamlines some of the features of its predecessor, while keeping the same beefy battery and 48-megapixel main camera lens. It also keeps the same 6.7-inch screen, but as satisfying as the phone is to look at, you’ll need to add a case if you want to protect it against accidents. Fortunately, we’ve rounded up the best Motorola One 5G Ace cases available right now. Regardless of whether you’re looking for something slimline or heavy-duty, you should be able to find something that suits your tastes here.
This is a very sturdy Motorola One 5G Ace case that also happens to look pretty chic and minimal. It’s made of a composite of aramid fiber and TPU, with the dual layers serving to reinforce each other against more serious drops and impacts. In fact, Evutec claims that its advanced aramid fiber composite is “five times as strong as steel.” We’re not entirely sure if this is true, but we are certain that it is one of the toughest cases you can find right now. It’s also appreciably light and slimline, while its soft-touch coating will help you grip it snugly.
Here’s an ideal case for anyone with butterfingers. It’s made from a soft yet durable TPU material, which not only makes it strong and scratch-resistant, but also helps you to grip it. Its ridged surface also increases grip, just in case you have a tendency to let phones slip out of your hands from time to time (we’ve all been there). The case has been designed to fit the One 5G Ace perfectly, with all of the necessary cutouts and buttons working seamlessly.
This case from Vecomelo is made of a single molded piece of TPU, designed to include air-spring buffers that cushion impacts. This makes it shock-absorbent, while the TPU’s surface is scratch-resistant and fingerprint-resistant, something that will keep its sleek appearance intact. Importantly, the TPU comes with a grainy, brushed texture, so you can grip it more easily. It also provides two screen protectors, which in this particular case you can rest assured will be compatible with the case.
Transparent cases are always a good idea if you want to preserve the original appearance of your phone, and this number from Osophter is just the ticket. It’s slimline and lightweight, so you’ll be able to fit it easily and use your phone entirely as normal, without any pocket issues. At the same time, its combination of shatterproof TPU and PC material means that it’s also very rugged for a slim case, with the shock-absorbing corner bumpers providing extra cushioning. In case you don’t want an entirely transparent case, you can also buy it in smoke gray.
If you’re not too keen on screen protectors, then Futanwei’s Armor Case for the Motorola One 5G Ace is a good solution. It adds a front covering to the usual rear case, both of which are made with hard PC and shock-absorbing bumpers. This makes it an effective bulwark against drops and impacts, while the addition of a front cover means that you don’t really have to worry about your screen chipping or cracking. Both covers are fairly slim, so the original dimensions of the One 5G Ace are largely preserved, while all of the necessary cutouts and buttons are included.
Yes, if you’re tired of plain old black covers, then you can spice things up a little with this glitter case. As the name suggests, glittering stones have been infused into the back of the case, which is made of TPU that’s designed to disperse the shock of falls. The glitter gives it a sparkling, phosphorescent appearance, which will certainly catch more than a few eyes. The case also comes with a free screen protector, and it has been given precise cutouts for the phone’s speakers, ports, and buttons.

Google Play is borrowing one of the Nintendo Switch’s most useful little tricks. A new Sidekick tool called Playbacks captures a short clip after something interesting has already happened, sparing players from running a screen recorder throughout an entire game.
Playbacks is part of Google Play Store v53.8 and keeps saved clips on the phone. Google first announced it earlier this month, but the new Play Store update marks its arrival for players. Anyone who has watched a perfect win vanish because the record button came too late already understands the appeal.
Samsung’s scandal over its Game Optimizing Service, or GOS, has returned with a bill attached. South Korea’s Fair Trade Commission has tentatively fined the company 20.1 billion won, or about $15.1 million, over gaming claims made for the Galaxy S21, Galaxy S22, and Tab S8.
The regulator says Samsung promoted the devices as gaming powerhouses without disclosing that GOS placed preset CPU and GPU limits on certain demanding games. Samsung disputes that conclusion, calling GOS a legitimate way to manage heat.
