Apple Clear Case for iPhone 13 Review - Should You Buy It?

[@DionMedia]

Which case do you prefer; clear, silicone or leather?

[@safaa7uae811]

Leather

[@dase3179]

Leather

[@matveykorenukhin3739]

My favorite is green silicone case for 13 +Iphone in midnight

[@Kallum93]

Silicone! Clover especially looks amazing on the iPhone 13 in midnight

[@josephpepe2607]

Clear only, I never use any other than clear

[@hei_youtube]

I love the glowing effect of clear case when the screen turned on and face down on a surface in a dark environment. The light of the screen will shine through the case and the glowing clear case just looks magical.

[@DionMedia]

Hi Samuel, thanks for sharing.

[@damnfreakingsien]

The reason why the bottom of the case is uncovered is due to material properties. The clear case, while more protective, is also stiffer and more brittle than the silicone and leather case. If the bottom is covered, PC clear case is more likely to crack when removing and putting on the case. Not to mention given how hard the case is, it is much harder to remove the case from the phone. Gotta hand it to Apple for their attention to such detail despite being overpriced.

[@DionMedia]

Thanks for this!

[@djcantskate3883]

I just got the blue jay silicone case for my blue 13 and it’s my favorite case I’ve ever had. I love the color of the phone and the case being so thin and the exact same color of the phone is perfect. The MagSafe compatibility is a plus too since I’ve recently started using some of the accessories

[@DionMedia]

Thanks for sharing your experience

[@fancAC]

Sorry if this bothers you, but how is the case 5 months later?

[@jessechuff]

while I also have grown to not mind the white MagSafe on the case, I do wish they could have offered some color matching ones or some that might compliment the darker colors at least.

[@DionMedia]

With Apple one needs to be patient (and very flexible :))

[@2daysd]

I watched your review with interest and mostly agree with your assessment. I had a similar style case when I had my iPhone XR (which I traded in for my iPhone 13 Pro), which I found awesome as i didn’t have to remove the case every time I needed access to my lightning port when I needed to place external mics into that port. Also, that case held up very well on many drops and throws. When I looked for a case for my new iPhone 13 Pro, I insisted that it had the bottom area open like my last one. The only one that did was the clear MageSafe case. I selected it immediately, and the magnet on the backside gives me more options too. That is all to say, it’s the perfect case for me as I create my own KZbin videos with my DJI wireless mic setup. Also, it makes my sierra blue phone stand out sharply and the buttons are actually easier to press than the ones I had on my XR. My former XR case was an Apple case as well. We need a case to be available like this (an open-ended bottom). For creators, it’s of great benefit so we don’t have to remove our cases every time we make a video and expose our phones to damage from drops as well. Good job on this review! I’m very happy with both the 13 Pro and this style of case that covers it!

[@DionMedia]

Hi, thanks for sharing your own experience and thanks for your generous feedback. Keep on creating :)

[@Madhav_GTR]

I just bought the Apple clear case for my iPhone 13 promax and I am super super satisfied with it and I think it’s worth going for it. I am not really that worried about the bottom overall I give it a 4.8 out of 10.

[@DionMedia]

4.8 out of 10 is not much

[@Madhav_GTR]

@@DionMedia I meant 9.8 out of 10 right now.

[@edmundb9025]

I have this clear case for my 13 mini in midnight color and I love it very much. I’m planning to buy a clear case for my Samsung S23 that is made by the same company that makes original iphone cases.

[@mariolo3602]

Which company is that?

[@Truecrimeresearcher224]

I have this for my blue iphone 13 and i like it. I also don't leave the store without a case or screen protector. I didn't like paying 40 dollars

[@oOLinxyOo]

I hope Apple can change the bottom design of that case and make it protect all around!

[@oOLinxyOo]

I found the perfect case very close to the Apple clear magsafe case, and protected at the bottom!

[@joanneazeez9938]

Agree with you

[@yasuketensei]

@@oOLinxyOo what brand ?

[@geneparadiso6258]

I do prefer a clear case. I just change my Spigen clear case one a year for $6. I usually trade in my phone after 2 years.

[@DionMedia]

Hi Gene, yes, with a clear case you see what you got! This Spigen clear case sounds like a great deal with its low price. How has it been holding out? And trading one’s phone every 2 years seems like good ritme. One of these months I will make a video with all the pro’s and cons of selling after 1, 2, 3 or 4 years, especially how it will turn out economically. Have an excellent weekend

[@micaelandrade1217]

hard plastic does not protect from fall damage as well as silicone.

[@NA-ub1kv]

Yes I had this on my 14 pro and I fell down and my case broke down and my phone got scuffed

[@LibusAttila]

The saddle brown leather case is my all time favorite! ❤️ Spigen and Pitaka is the other two manufacturier who I also big like.

[@DionMedia]

Hi Attila, thanks for sharing

[@raedbingashayan418]

I used silicon case but sometime it is moved from the case it is looks like doesn’t fit with the case.

[@DionMedia]

Hi Raed, sorry to hear, in general the original Apple cases fit very well

[@the.rakibtarafdar]

I ordered for my iPhone 14+❤

[@namesdom]

I think it would be cool if you could change the color of the ring

[@alexandermercado5384]

There is a case for that on the apple site

[@raimondreddington6064]

Yes I have the leather, silicon and the clear case and I change the colors and cases like I want to 😅

[@DionMedia]

Hi Raimond, people like you must be a joy for Apple :). Enjoy

[@JK-wb6ds]

May i know will iPhone 13 clear magsafe case fit iPhone 14 perfectly?

[@DionMedia]

No, not perfectly

[@Nihadt4t]

It's so beautiful ❤️

[@DionMedia]

Thanks!

[@jamesherrera6973]

I like clear case but feels slippery.. but I do use apple 🍎 silicone case the blue one matches the light blue phone

[@Kllian_d]

Idk if anyone will answer me since that video is old, but are the buttons as hard to press as with the silicon cases? Or is it worse?

[@DionMedia]

Hi Otta, I can confirm that the buttons on the clear case indeed require more pressure than the silicone or leather cases

[@Kllian_d]

@@DionMedia oh thanks! But is it like really really more? Is it actually hard to press? Or does it only need a little more pressure?

[@badkarma8689]

if apple kept the bottom of this clear case closed it wouldve been very hard to take off of the phone in the event you'd wanna clean it. The hard plastic isnt as flexible as the silcone and leather apple cases

[@BorleyRectory37]

Thanks for this posting, could you do a video on how to remove the Apple Clear case? I've read that everyone says it hard to remove. Thank you.

[@DionMedia]

Hi, yes, that is a bit tricky. What I do is pushing the Iphone out via the camera module. You have to apply some force, take care not to touch the lenses of course

[@safaa7uae811]

Great video showing the comparison for clear case I wonder if I buy from Amazon and mentions anti yellowing that means it won’t get color?

[@sharpe340-]

All cheap clear cases will yellow and discolour over time regardless of how they are advertised. I have had many over the years which stated ‘anti-yellowing’ etc, but none of them have remained clear. Even Spigen clear cases will discolour and I consider them to be a very good brand overall. If you want a permanently clear case I’m afraid that you will have to pay the Apple tax.

[@DionMedia]

Fully agree!

[@tilesandbricks7539]

any problems if you you a tempered glass with case

[@DionMedia]

No, it should not cause any problems

Does the case get a lot of lint/dust inside it after use?

[@HectorHuerta92]

Yes it does

[@DionMedia]

Correct, one has to clean his/her case now and then

[@josephpepe2607]

I hate the silicon everything sticks to it

[@jeychen9750]

@@DionMedia Have you found any scratches when you clean your phone? I heard that the bezels do not tend to scratch easily. I am stuck between this one and the silicon case. I want the beautiful color but not to clear it so often. BTW, I exercise a lot. Do you think I should go for the clear case or the silicon case?

[@jayWILLdoit1989]

will iphone 13 fit in iphone 12 case? from apple clear case

[@DionMedia]

Many discussions about this, but most comments are not positive. Cases should, in my opinion, fit 100%, not 95%

[@ksthss77shd]

In my previous experiences of using apple clear cases, it’d usually leave my sweat on the back of it, particularly in summer. It’s kind sticky. So now I’ve become a leather case user. What about you ? Have that ever happened to you ?

[@DionMedia]

Hi Yves, a bit late my reaction I realize but what you ask is a common question. The leather case has a better grip than the Apple clear cases, especially in humid and warm weather conditions

[@ebbiehenry7144]

I have this and I really like it as I could not commit to any color of the silicone case.

[@zakiasultanalucky9706]

I bought 13 midnight color.After using few hours i notice white rings visible around the camera area.Then i gogle it.And i found lots of people facing this discoloring affects in camera areas.

I fully understand that. In that case I’d consider the silicone or leather option as these do cover the bottom
