I've STILL Never LOVED an iPhone Case More BUT...

[@AJPBeauty]

I agree with the review. I've been using it since Chris's first video, and I find it to be the perfect minimalistic and adequately protective option. Personally, I prefer to keep it bare, and if it gets scratched after 7-8 months, I'll consider putting a case on it. I mean, why cover a premium device like the Apple iPhone when you've already paid for its design?

[@TheKing-ns4re]

Because there’s also the obvious way of just using a case when you’re out and about and barely paying attention to your phone anyways due to being at work. And then just go caseless at home, like I do. And then you get the perks of enjoying your phone naked in mint condition. Duh.

[@sixty4pilot]

I’ve been using the Arc on my 14 Pro Max for a year now! Not a single sign of damage on my phone after a whole year a few drops. I own a Quad Lock case that i use to attach my phone to my motorcycle handlebars. That’s the only time i switch cases. When Im done riding i pop off the quad lock and slap on the arc. Im also in the army so if i go out on a training exercise i swap out the arc for my quad lock. The arc is perfect for day to day and looks super premium. I can be wearing a suit and pull my phone out and it compliments the suit! 10/10 would recommend the arc!

[@Morraless21]

Do you also have a screen protector on your phone?

[@juliahartley-barnes975]

I bought mine after seeing your original video on this case. I am still using it on my iPhone 14 Pro Max exclusively. I’ll never use anything else now, my phone looks brand new. Definitely recommend it. 👍🏻

[@ChanceCan]

Are you using a screen protector?

[@NickonStark]

I bought after watching your previous video. Most MagSafe accessories won’t really work (iPhone 14 Pro) because the lower piece won’t allow it to connect to the back of the phone.

[@stevedirdochegal6568]

What you shoulda got yourself is the Rhinoshield Bumper... way better, protection ALL around the side while the complete back is exposed

@@stevedirdochegal6568 but this one seems to protect the camera better than the rhino shield.

Rhinoshield bumper case Crashguard used to be my favorite when I was using my s7 and s9..minimalistic and very good drop protection but once I switched to iphone it seemed way bulkier with both 11 pro and 13 pro not a great option for iphone. Now

[@ryharvey]

I’ve been going caseless with the 14 Pro Max. This thing is durable! It’s taken quite a few impacts, and no screen damage! There are minor scuffs on the corners, but nothing very noticeable. I think Apple’s done a great job with phone robustness.

[@Aerodave11]

same, they are very durable

[@theetactician]

Definitely looking at this for my 15 Pro Max. I have basically never dropped a phone so I am not too worried about that, but this is so cool. Price is steep especially this year, but every other case is so boring. I have looked for countless hours at every available case and nothing appeals to me besides this. Plus this years design is a little easier in the hands with curved edges and a matte finish that reduces fingerprints. I would go naked, but that does give me anxiety. At least this offers a bit of that occasional oops protection. Plus this years phones have fixed the back glass repairability issues which relieves a bit of stress when it comes to protection.

[@motolux2954]

Do your research… The LaterCase is owned by a KZbinr who after a sponsored review of a Pitaka case decided it would be a better idea to copy the phone case design and sell its own version. The KZbinr ended up removing the sponsored video and received a considerable amount of negative feedback from the public. This KZbinr is popular and has decent content but based on pure principle I have unsubscribed and do not watch any of the videos they post. KZbinrs should focus on producing content and not stealing their sponsors product to claim as their own, I hope you mentioned this company without knowing its history.

[@WarrenPuffet]

LaterCase isn’t a copy of Pitaka, and Pitaka wasn’t the first to use Kevlar like materials in their phone case.

[@mikea8294]

I may consider this or the Phone Rebel Flex with the iPhone 15 Pro Max especially with the smoother and more rounded titanium edges which should be stronger as well.

[@Quiqueleal85]

I want to get this for my 15 PMX, also an office worker and this year's design feel like they are too good caseless in hand that I want to really grasp that and this is by far the best I've seen... yet I do worry that if you are at the park and the floor is a bit uneven you deff need to be extra careful... also the price tag is steep...

Buy a leather case or something less expensive but more protective for those occasions. That's what I did.

Just ordered it for my 15pro max. Unfortunately I wont receive it until 15 days after I get the phone, but looking forward to using it. This is the first time I do not use some sort of protective case on an iPhone, but after watching your video I decided on it because it would be nice to use it in a way that allows me to see the actual phone every day, instead of just seeing it when I first get it or when I clean the inside of the case. Now a days I really only pull it out when I am sitting somewhere, or at home, I mostly use my Apple Watch now for day to day things so it now makes sense and there is not a need to protect it as I did before. Can’t wait to get it and see how it looks. Thanks for review!

[@kenkwok83]

I think the main issue is it won’t protect against scratches when you put it in a handbag. A bag. Even your pocket if there are other things inside like wallet. Set of keys. Or anything like that.

[@TomC591]

The iPhones glass back is particularly scratch resistant I’ve found. Typically glass will get scratched by sand, and the case creates enough of a gap to avoid rubbing sand against the back. Common keys don’t scratch the back easily either, I’ve found they are much more annoying with the front since it’s softer than the back. Screen protectors are a solution but also wear out… I just don’t like the idea of a book style case to hide my phone. After 2+ years I don’t have a scratch on the back yet with the Arc Pulse.

Hi Chris... It's been a year since you reviewed the Arc Pulse for a second time. Are you still using it? If you had to pick the one case that actually allows you to enjoy the iPhone the way the designer intended (i.e., form, function, and aesthetics), for a person who is not hard on their phone, which you stick with the Arc Pulse or Peel... or something else?

[@cuve_ae]

Woah I just looked at this! I love it because I can still mount it to my DJI Osmo gimbal without taking off my case.

[@Антон-е4т1ц]

A little late to the game ordered one for my 13 Max used. Biggest thing that held me back is its massive price tag. Got the silver one coming purchased on eBay. Will see thanks for the video!

[@steveschwartz5417]

Chris, you're videos are incredible, honest, and informative. I recently purchased an iPhone 15 Pro in the natural titanium colorway and have already tried about 15 cases. The reason why I was unable to settle on one is because all of those cases prevented me from enjoying the iPhone the way the designer intended AND I didn't want to cover up the beautiful natural titanium color. So, what I found myself doing is buying cases the were more minimalistic than the previous case purchased until finally I came across the Arc Pulse on your video. While I've only had mine for a few days, I absolutely love it. Unless a person actually tries it or never used an iPhone naked, they could never understand why being able to use the phone without any obstruction is such a big deal. Like you, even though it's only been a few days, I can't imagine ever going back, except for those rare occasions when I absolutely need to protect my phone (like on a camping trip of hike), then I switch to my Andar Aspen leather case. Provides full phone coverage and feels great. Keep up the great work!

[@franciscog9635]

After seeing your 1st video I knew I had to get one. I found out they used to sell titanium bikinis. I didn’t order mine to see if they bring back the lightness of titanium for folks who care more about case weight than price.

[@PedroGonzalezOfficial]

Do you have a screen protector on your phone?

[@palashkale]

It’s nice but feels thick because of the bottom part, because of how we hold our phone, a phone feels thick if it’s sides or corners are too thick, it’s the same effect as with casetify ultra bounce cases, I mean if u got the corners you might as well make the whole sides thicker the effect is almost the same while holding, the only slight advantage would be to be able to reach the whole keyboard one handed if you got the thick corners thin sides case. But plus and pro max phones are thick even without cases so that’s still a difficult thing to do even without cases. The best feeling cases will always be something like the Pitaka magEZ as it completely covers the phone with one thickness, but u give up on looks (if u want to show off the colors) a thin clear case will get smudged. The next option is phone rebel flex series frosted finish, the only problem is the magsafe ring is in black which doesn’t go well with lighter color phone, personally I use the rhinoshield crashguard, it looks clean, protects the phone well, and gives a great grip at least the new iPhone 15 version, but one handed usage suffers, u loose some u get some

[@jacoblandsberger6584]

Fascinating concept but you should include research whether MagSafe accessories like wallet, battery pack would fit on a pro size phone It appears they won’t and if so that’s a deal breaker!

[@darylnd]

Few will. The Anker 321 compact battery bank fits: according to Anker's website, the 321 measures 3.7 × 2.5 × 0.59 inches. From photos, 3.7 x 2.5 inches seem about the maximum dimensions for a Magsafe accessory with the Arc Pulse on a Pro Max phone, so there's a serious real estate limit on the Pro (which I own: I had the 12 Pro Max and don't want a phone that big again)..

Sounds like YOU should do that research and common sense will tell you if it’s snug on the Max it won’t fit the smaller Pro

I say it depends on the type of car mount you have? If it's a Magsafe one then it'll most likely work just like the wallet accessory he showed.
