The Arc Pulse Case is just two tiny metal pieces that protect your iPhone 13 from falls without getting in the way.
When you think about it, the best Apple iPhone 13 cases have a number of different jobs. A case needs to look good, keep your iPhone 13 looking good, and keep it protected against the usual drops and spills. For most, that means a rubber or plastic case that surrounds your phone in a protective layer and keeps it safe. But is that the only design? Arc doesn’t think so.
The top piece fits over the top corners of the phone and around the camera bump. The bottom piece fits across the back and bottom corners of the phone. The rubberized material on the inside gives the case some grip, so while you’d think these pieces would just fall right off, they don’t. In fact, they’re actually pretty hard to remove, which is a good thing.
What about the other 10%? Scratching however is a different story. If you regularly carry two phones in the same pocket, or if you carry your keys in the same pocket as your phone, stop it. But also, this case won’t protect the back or side of your phone from those items. It’s possible, too, that this case might scratch other phone screens. So the lesson I learned here is that pockets with phones are meant to be pockets for only one phone.
