Arc Pulse Compatible with iPhone 16 Pro Phone Case (2024), Minimalist Protective Shock Absorption Aerospace Grade Aluminum Shells + Elastomer Inlays Slide on Fit 6.3 inch

I really like it! At first glance, it looks Silver rather than Titan Gray but the color changes from different angles. A very cool accessory, and I can already tell it will be one of my most used "cases" EDIT: after 3 months of constant use, it has many scratches, the color has come off at both top and bottom parts, and I must say it isn't worth the price tag. Whilst it looked great initially, I am disappointed with the quality after constant use

Scratches quite easily, but is the best iPhone case out there hands down. I was worried that the case may slip off the phone, but this does not happen, it’s really precisely engineered to firmly hold onto the phone. In addition to the obvious aesthetics, my phone feels a bit smaller and easy to hold, I think it will also lengthen the lifetime of the battery as the metal back of the phone can act as a heatsink. This is in contrast to rubber cases which insulate the phone, trapping heat and resulting in poorer battery longevity. My only concern along with easy scratching of the surface is that you may struggle to have it fit on wireless chargers, if they are longer than the height of the phone.

My favorite phone case. This case really works. When I got the case, I thought to myself that I must be extra careful to never drop my phone coz it will surely get damaged but I have dropped it way more often than I hoped to and the case has faithfully protected it each time. It’s a really great product

check out pics of the wear and tear , mine is knackered , expect better for this price

easy to install - looks nice and keeps the nice looking phone visible too - could be slimmer particularly the part around the cameras

I did not like this. It’s extremely tight go the phone and feels like it could be bending/damaging the phone every time I take it off. It looks pretty, but it’s not practical, the phone back being frosted glass means your phone is still extremely slippy in your hand, meaning lots more drops than would usually happen with a regular case. It would make more sense for there to be metal going down the body of the phone to prevent this. It’s also very overpriced for what it is, although it is very high quality.

Nice feeling and very well fitting case with good protection for drop points but due to the lack of side rail protection and the aluminium unibody of the 17 Pro models you get a the anodised finish chipping off on the sides, perfect for the titanium models which were a lot more durable but not so much for the 17.

This is a very overpriced accessory in my opinion but if you love the feel of a naked iPhone without having to compromise safety fully, then this case is for you. iPhones nowadays (and many other phones) are built with some exceptional materials that just feel so good on the hand especially the back glass and the sides that just make you want to run them without a case. This Arc Pulse case allows for that without fully compromising the phones safety. But honestly, the phone is certainly not as safe because of how much is still exposed, your phone will most likely be subject to wear and tear and more susceptible to cracking. I’m still giving it 5 stars because I am perfectly happy with how it looks and the fact that I can feel the phone again but be warned that your phone has way more chances of getting damaged in this case than if you were to buy a random £10 case that covers the entire phone. If your phones safety is your upmost priority then it’s best to ignore this case.

So far so good received today, I read many reviews saying the bottom part falls apart mine is really hard to take off the phone. I’m just worried if the sides will be protected in case the phone falls. But all in all looks rigid and durable. Best part is you can feel your phone and there isn’t a bulky cover while holding it.

Black marks too easy

TL:DR - for the generally careful, mindful user of tech, this may be the minimalist protection you've longed for. If you're not, these aren't the droids you're looking for. Longer: So I've been rocking an 8 Plus for several years, replaced the battery, etc. Finally time for an upgrade to the 16 pro. And over the years I've gotten to know myself. As a phone user, I'm pretty careful. As a past Dir. of Technology, I tend to be gentle on my tech and conscientious about daily care to prolong the lifespan. So putting the requisite screen protector and camera lens protectors on the new phone, I went to a leather case similar to what I've been rocking for about a decade. Hated the bulk. Went to a clear thin case. Hated the bulk. With Applecare+, decided to try this "terminator-style bumper" option. Pros: very minimalist. get to enjoy the titanium of the iPhone. Buttons have nothing between me and the metal. Both the rear and the front screen are protected from tabletops by raised lip. Width in the hand is simply the width of the phone...nothing more. It feels great in the hand - the way God and Tim Cook intended. The fit is VERY snug, and I have no fears of it slipping off. The bumpers provide just enough tactile surface that my fingers feel "something to grab" if that makes sense. Cons: I've not dropped it yet (I seldom do), but I figure I've got Applecare+ if there's a serious mishap. And a screen protector. And camera lens protectors. The bumpers cover the four corners...not the top, bottom, or side edges. I'm skeptical of the protection provided in a major oops. Only time will tell on that. So for me, I wanted a VERY minimalist / bare titanium experience. This option provides it, and it looks nice to boot. We'll see how I feel about it after the first inevitable slip up.

I originally bought this Arc Pulse for my iPhone 17 Pro Max because I wanted drop protection without covering up the bare phone, and it definitely delivers on that minimalist vibe. Even better—it fits my new iPhone 18 Pro Max perfectly too! What I love: You actually get to hold the bare phone in your hands instead of wrapping it in a bulky piece of plastic. The raised aluminum corners and camera bumper give great peace of mind on flat drops without adding bulk. Looks super sleek in Matte Black and slides in and out of pockets easily. Fits snugly and hasn't loosened up over time. Things to keep in mind: It’s definitely pricey for how little material you’re getting. Because the sides and back glass are exposed, it won't save you from direct hits on uneven surfaces like gravel. Some thicker MagSafe battery packs might bump against the lower piece unless you take it off. If you love the naked iPhone feel but still want your camera and corners protected across upgrades, this is as close as it gets. Super happy with it!

Perfect
