Like every Apple-designed case, it undergoes thousands of hours of testing throughout the design and manufacturing process. With built-in magnets that align perfectly with iPhone 13, the case offers a magical attach and detach experience, every time. The case quickly snaps into place and fits snugly over your iPhone without adding bulk. Made from specially tanned and finished leather, the outside feels soft to the touch and develops a natural patina over time. Apple iPhone 13 MagSafe Leather Case features: The specially tanned and finished European leather build pairs with built-in magnets to snap right onto the back of your device, and can hold two different IDs or bank cards in place. Get a closer look in our hands-on review iPhone 13 Pro cases:Īs all of the week’s best Apple deals begin trickling in, one particular highlight this time around still has Amazon taking 30% off a selection of official Apple accessories including everything from Apple Watch bands to a wider selection of iPhone 13 cases and much more.
It sports much of the same features otherwise for iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 owners. While not the just-announced models with Apple Find My integration, this first-party accessory is down to $29.99 from its usual $59 price tag to mark the best price of the year. We tried to avoid sleeves with loud colors, really gaudy branding, and odd detailing, and looked for sleeves that came in several color options.Before we get to the other MagSafe cases for Apple’s iPhone 13 series, another one of the highlights in the sale worth diving into first is the official Leather Wallet. But once we had found a list of sleeves that worked well, we used their appearance to distinguish which would become our picks.
The Gauntlet 3.0 should also protect a computer from small falls or drops much better than a neoprene sleeve could, though we wouldn’t trust it to keep a laptop pristine after a tumble of more than a few feet-after all, it’s not certified to any shock-resistance standards. We wouldn’t toss a Gauntlet-clad laptop into a lake, but some light rain and snow should be no danger to a computer encased in one of these. The inside was only a bit damp, and only near the hinge, and the Gauntlet 3.0 let in less water than any other water-resistant case we tested, aside from the original Gauntlet. We filled the Gauntlet 3.0 with paper towels and then sprayed it with a kitchen-sink sprayer for 30 seconds to test its water resistance, and we found that only a little water soaked through the hinge. The Gauntlet 3.0’s stiff sides offer about as much protection as you can get in a sleeve, and its water-resistant zipper helps keep liquids out. Why it’s great: The Thule Gauntlet 3.0 has a rigid clamshell design that zips along three of its four edges and can withstand more abuse than a padding-only design.
