Best iPhone 13 Pro cases 2024

If you’re a bit clumsy and want that ultimate protection for your iPhone 13 Pro, our top pick for the best protective case is the Mous Limitless 4.0. Built with innovative, impact-absorbing AiroShock technology and made up of multiple layers of strong, rigid materials, the Limitless 4.0 offers ultimate drop and shock protection. It also features raised edges for superior screen protection, so you won’t have to worry about cracks or chips any time soon.

Mous promises that it tests the Limitless 4.0 in extreme conditions, far beyond anything you’re likely to put your phone case through, so you can have confidence that it’s up to the task of your day-to-day life. Reviews also note that it’s highly durable and long-lasting, so despite its high price, it should save you some cash in cracked screens and case replacements in the long run.

The Mous Limitless 4.0’s designs are generally shaped by the material you choose – be it bamboo, walnut wood, white acetate, or carbon fiber. Unfortunately, this means that there aren’t that many different colors or patterns for you to choose from, and no matter what, you end up with a pretty minimalist look. But, if you’re willing to sacrifice funky designs in favor of top-notch protection, this is the case for you.

No matter your favorite gen one Pokémon, Skinnydip has a case for them. There’s also some general Pokémon designs, but we’re here for the specific ‘mons. Our personal favorite picks are Lapras, Gengar, and Arcanine as seen above, but Paras, Pikachu, and even Primeape look excellent on these cases.

Skinnydip makes all of its cases with shockproofing, they’re drop-tested and made with premium grips so you won’t be dropping your iPhone any time soon.

These cases come with a raised ring around the iPhone’s cameras to add extra protection, along with elevated edges to protect the phone’s screens.

We’ve all heard of Casetify by now, but are they really that good? Yes. Yes, they are. Casetify offers a dizzyingly wide range of designs for just about every modern phone and even allows options for you to customize them yourself. The Casetify Bounce MagSafe cases offer maximum shock absorption from all angles, 13ft drop protection, a DEFENSIFY anti-bacterial coating that eliminates 99% of bacteria, and are made of 65% recycled and plant-based materials.

They’re MagSafe charging compatible, have a phone charm slot allowing for even more personal customization, and you can even add extra accessories to your order including a pro impact anti-blue screen protector, a snappy grip phone stand, or a cross-body strap.

On the downside, the Casetify Bounce MagSafe cases are pretty expensive, and the bounce bumpers on the corners add a bit of extra bulk to your phone which isn’t always ideal. They’re also pretty popular, so many designs are often out of stock, meaning you may have to sign up to a waiting list before you can get the case you want. But, if you’re willing to wait and fork out the cash, you’re sure to get a cool case up to the task of protecting your precious phone.

So what if you’re worried about dropping your phone in water? Even with the iPhone 13 Pro’s one-meter water protection, it’s not a guarantee that water won’t damage your device. Luckily, the Otterbox Frē series cases are here to give you a little extra protection from the elements.

Featuring sealed port covers and a built-in screen protector, the Frē Series cases offer up to two meters of waterproof protection, while also boasting the ability to withstand any drops or falls along the way.

It’s a bit bulky and quite pricey, and unfortunately, it only comes in a few colors so is lacking in the customization department. But with that extra meter of water protection, the handy screen protector, and the soft padding around the edges, it may just prevent your next trip to the beach from becoming a horror story.

If you’re looking for a durable case that doesn’t break the bank, then we recommend the Spigen Mag Armor. For such a cheap case, it’s a big bonus that it still features MagSafe charging compatibility.

It’s a slim and surprisingly sturdy piece of kit, and its matte black design is sleek and simplistic. Unfortunately, it doesn’t come in other colors at the moment, and the iPhone 13 Pro version lacks the little kickstand that elevated the older version.

Alternatively, Sprigen also has a line of Ultra Hybrid cases that come in a few different colors, and you can dish out an extra $5 or so to get a MagFit version to ensure it’s compatible with MagSafe charging. They’re slim, climate-friendly, and quite durable, all for a pretty low price, so pretty cost-effective. You can check them out here:

Keep in mind that many reviews note the Spigen Ultra Hybrid cases’ clear plastic does have a tendency to discolor after a while, and its surface can scratch pretty easily. But for the price, it’s a simple but effective little case that’s certainly capable of protecting your phone.

Overall, Sprigen is a good brand to look at if you’re on the hunt for an affordable case coming in at under $30. Browse the full range on the Amazon Sprigen store.

Flip cases, or wallet cases as they’re sometimes known, are quite out of style, and everyone’s moms and grandmas seem to favor them. But if you want an extra layer of protection for your screen, as well as a screen protector, while also having a case that doubles as a wallet and stand, then the security of a flip case might just be the ticket.

It can be pretty hard to find a good flip case these days – especially a quality one that won’t start to flake or fall apart quickly. You can find some pretty cheap ones that aren’t made out of leather on Amazon like the Sheldon Folio case for $25.99, but if you’re looking for a truly premium, real leather option, we recommend the BookBook.

The BookBook case is a quirky choice, with the crease designed to look like the spine of an old book. It’s crafted from premium leather and features a magnetic detachable inner case that’s MagSafe charging compatible. The case also doubles as a kickstand and features a spacious wallet for your important cards, ID, etc. It closes via a 30-millimeter magnetic tab, and its hardback cover is perfect for protecting your phone from scratches and impacts.

It’s a bit bulky, but having a two-in-one flip case and shell in a uniquely designed package is definitely a plus, and the book-style spine adds an interesting aesthetic.

If the BookBook isn’t your style, you can check out the LeatherSafe Pocket Book for a similar price. Instead of the usual magnetic clip, the LeatherSafe Pocket Book comes with a wallet-esque elastic strap to keep it closed, making it look like a truly smooth piece of kit. As Pad&Quill’s most compact wallet case, it’s super slim, adding only about 0.5” to the overall thickness of your phone, while still having enough capacity for four to six cards.

It boasts a real leather and hardwood combination and comes with a 25-year leather warranty. It also has an interesting cut-out in the back to make it compatible with MagSafe charging – although this does look a little odd if you’re hoping for an overall slick design. The LeatherSafe Pocket Book Pro is hard to find outside of the official Pad & Quill website, but the company does ship worldwide via FedEx, with a general time estimate of 5-7 days.

Apple doesn’t appear to sell their own version of these cases anymore for the iPhone 13 Pro, but thankfully, Casekoo has you covered – and for a fraction of the price.

Their clear cases promise to never yellow by using their Never Yellow technology, where grys-gel and blue pigments are used to fend off dirt from grubby fingers and UV that causes unsightly yellowing to clear plastic so often.

While it’s a bit of a drab design – if you could call it a design, being clear – if you like the original color of your phone, then a clear case is perfect for you. These cases are thin and light, but still offer drop protection, and keep your cameras safe with a 2.5mm raised edge.

If  you feel a bit iffy buying unofficial game and anime merch, then Head Case Designs can solve that problem for you, when it comes to your tech, at least. The company’s official collaboration with Hatsune Miku and the other Piapro characters launched in 2021, offering a range of vibrant designs for practically every model of smartphone out there, including the iPhone 13 Pro.

The base case itself is scratch-resistant, flexible, lightweight, and easy to install. While this is a benefit in itself, it does mean that you’re sacrificing some of the protection offered by bulkier, more expensive cases. However, if your main concern is showing off your love for everyone’s favorite blue-haired Vocaloid sensation, these cases are perfect and won’t set you back too much cash.

Plus, if you fancy decking out your best Nintendo Switch controller and console to match your phone, Head Case Designs offers a whole bunch of Miku-themed skins for your Joy-Cons, Pro controllers, and Switch docks.
