A Note on iPhone 13 Cases
We’ve tried these cases on the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max. In contrast to last year, cases that fit the 6.1-inch iPhone 13 won’t fit the 6.1 inch iPhone 13 Pro.

What’s MagSafe?
MagSafe is a term you may review from the attractive charging link on MacBooks of old. Apple brought back the name, yet this time it’s utilized as an arrangement of attractive embellishments that can associate with the rear of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 territory. Apple says its magnet frill are safeguarded, so it’s protected to use with Mastercards (if perhaps not lodging key cards).
Cases need to have a ring of MagSafe magnets incorporated into them to appropriately work with other MagSafe gear (one simple way of telling is by searching for a ring within a case on item pictures). Few out of every odd outsider case has them. A few organizations guarantee their cases are “MagSafe viable” even without magnets, however that might be on the grounds that the case is slender enough for the magnets to in any case stick. However, the association is quite often powerless. On the off chance that you anticipate utilizing MagSafe frill like Apple’s remote charger or wallet, you ought to get a MagSafe case. In the event that a case or embellishment upholds MagSafe in this aide, you’ll see “MagSafe” in the item depiction.
Apple Leather and Silicone MagSafe Cases
Staying with Apple is the most straightforward course, however you absolutely don’t have to pay $49 for a basic MagSafe case. Apple has a brilliantly graceful cowhide case and a silicone alternative. Both have precise patterns for ports and fairly clicky buttons. They’re genuinely thin and keep the camera module flush, keeping the iPhone from shaking when it’s level on the table. Dissimilar to earlier Apple cases, every one of the edges are concealed, including the base.
Spigen Mag Armor With MagSafe
It’s modest, thin, has MagSafe, and isn’t horrendous to check out (if somewhat unexceptional). Assuming you need to pay as little as workable for a case, Spigen’s your smartest choice. The buttons are responsive, each of the four edges are covered, and it’s extremely simple to get to the quiet switch. The front edges around the screen are raised as well, however just a bit.
Pinnacle Design iPhone case
This is the situation that has been ensuring my iPhone 13 the longest, yet that is halfway a direct result of Peak Design’s keen environment of mountable items. The actual case has MagSafe-viable magnets inside, yet the organization went further and made its own square-molded mounting instrument that adjusts the iPhone properly for additional security. It’s safer than standard MagSafe mounts, and similarly as issue free. There’s an all inclusive connector that adheres to the rear of non-MagSafe telephones or different cases through cement in the event that you truly need to utilize this framework however don’t have an iPhone 12 or iPhone 13. I tried it on the Pixel 5A and it works similarly as well.
There are such countless assistants to match with it. I truly like the moderate remote charging stand and the portable mount, yet just a small bunch utilize the super protected mounting framework, similar to the Creator Kit, which you can connect to most mounts. That likewise incorporates my top pick: the general bicycle mount. This is no doubt the best bicycle mount I’ve at any time ever. It takes milliseconds to thud the iPhone down and it’s similarly as fast to take it off.

An Eco-Friendly Case
LifeProof Wake Case and LifeProof See (MagSafe) Case
These two cases from LifeProof are straightforward however have the climate at the top of the priority list. The Wake is produced using in excess of 85% sea based reused plastic (the organization says it has repurposed in excess of 27,000 pounds of plastic removed from the sea up until now). It has a wavy example on the back and it’s thin, however it feels plasticky and modest. There’s no MagSafe support.
The See case, notwithstanding, has implicit MagSafe. It includes more inclusion the base edge of the iPhone and is somewhat thicker (and will probably ensure your telephone better). The material, produced using 45% reused plastic, feels more pleasant to the touch as well. Both have genuinely responsive buttons. Whichever you get, LifeProof will give a dollar to one of its water-disapproved of charitable accomplices.

The Thinnest Case
Totallee has become well known as the go-to alternative for anybody that detests cases yet needs some sort of assurance. Its cases are so flimsy you can’t genuinely anticipate that they should shield your iPhone from a drop, yet they’ll deal with regular scratches and scrapes. There are two forms the organization sells: a super slim plastic case and a reasonable, delicate touch case. I’d decide on the last mentioned, as it offers somewhat better security yet is as yet more slender than most different cases. It likewise feels more pleasant, and the buttons don’t feel as soft. There’s no MagSafe here, however the cases are slight enough that you can in any case connect your MagSafe adornments (and they stick somewhat well).
