great protection and sleek design. i love arc covers because it keeps my phone exposed.

Great product I love it and I recommend it to everyone

Easy installation. Looks & feels great.

Graphite case on blue 17 Pro
- great combo.
Much easier to pick up & safer to set down.
Just enough case to help w holding safely without covering up too much phone.
Really like being able to stand the phone up for photos & flashlight - way too unstable before applying the case.
No problems with MagSafe charging.
Anker MagSafe battery fits & works well w case.

Wife got a Silver case on white 17 Air
Even better experience TBH - really makes the phone. Much easier to pick up and hold. Almost prefer her Air over my Pro after applying the case.

Not a complaint, but - the highly polished cases make the phone rather slippery on glass / smooth surfaces. Again, not unexpected - but be aware phone may slide around w haptic vibrations - alarms or incoming calls.

/// the ‘Shop’ tracking app was a joke - may reconsider that relationship. They had my delivery tracking to NSW Australia vs US - but hey, same city name, so no foul.

Would highly recommend & not hesitate to buy again. Although a coupon code would be appreciated 😉

Awesome and minimalist case for your AirPods and a great companion piece to the Arc I have on my phone! love it!!!

After 6 months, I still absolutely love my case! I have the iPhone 17 Pro Max in silver and got the silver/chrome case. They compliment each other beautifully. I love being able to actually see and feel my phone. I constantly get compliments & I’m always asked where I got my case from. After several drops (too many to count), my phone is still in perfect condition and the metal case still looks new. I was concerned that the camera lenses might get scratched or that the screen might get broken since it’s not your typical, fully enclosed case. Thankfully neither of those things have happened. The case is holding up and protecting my phone amazingly! I got the screen protector as well and its quality & durability are just as good. Not a scratch, chip, or crack on it. I give it a 10 out of 10!

Favorite case out there!

Fantastic, minimalist. Great customer service

Arc Pulse iPhone 17 Pro Max Review

The Arc Pulse for the iPhone 17 Pro Max is one of the most unique “cases” you can buy, mainly because it doesn’t feel like a case at all. Instead of wrapping your phone in bulk, it uses a two-piece aluminum design that clips onto the top and bottom of the device, protecting the most vulnerable areas while leaving the rest of the phone exposed.

Design and Build Quality
The design is where the Arc Pulse really stands out. It’s made from precision-machined aluminum with a soft inner lining, giving it a premium feel while still helping absorb impact. Once installed, it feels extremely secure and adds almost no weight or thickness. The biggest advantage here is that it keeps the original look and feel of the iPhone intact. You still see and feel the raw design of the 17 Pro Max, which is something most cases completely cover up.

Everyday Use
In daily use, the Arc Pulse feels almost like using your phone naked. It slides in and out of pockets easily, doesn’t trap heat, and works perfectly with MagSafe accessories since the back is fully open. The buttons remain fully exposed, which some people will love for responsiveness, but others might miss the added protection or grip of a traditional case.

Protection
Protection is where you need to understand what you’re getting. The Arc Pulse focuses on protecting corners, the camera module, and preventing flat drops from directly hitting the screen. For typical drops from pocket height onto flat surfaces, it does a solid job. However, the back glass and sides are still exposed, so it won’t protect against everything—especially rough surfaces like concrete or gravel.

Pros
• Extremely minimal and lightweight
• Premium metal construction
• Keeps the original iPhone design visible
• No interference with MagSafe
• Easy to install and remove

Cons
• Expensive for a partial-coverage case
• Back and sides remain exposed
• Limited grip compared to full cases
• Not ideal for heavy-duty protection

Final Verdict
The Arc Pulse is perfect for people who hate bulky cases and want to keep their iPhone looking and feeling as close to naked as possible while still adding some level of protection. It’s not designed to be a rugged case, but for careful users who prioritize design and minimalism, it’s one of the best options out there.

Overall Rating: 8/10
Great for aesthetics and everyday use, but not for maximum protection.

Excellent!

Excellent product. My iPhone looks great and the company has excellent customer service. Highly recommended

Just got the Arc phone case for my iPhone 17 and I’m seriously impressed. The design is super sleek and minimal, but still gives solid protection without adding bulk. It feels great in hand—lightweight but durable—and doesn’t take away from the look of the phone at all.

What really stands out is how well it balances style and functionality. Buttons are responsive, the fit is perfect, and it’s held up great with daily use so far. Definitely feels like a premium product.

If you’re looking for a case that protects your phone without hiding it, this is 100% worth it.

Arc Plus is the perfect IPhone protection that still allows you to SEE and FEEL your $1,000.00 phone. I have always thought, “what is the point of choosing a color if you are going to cover it with some protection”? I have purposefully dropped my phone from five feet on concrete, asphalt, and floors with zero impact to my phone. Greatest IPhone protection on the market. Daniel

I really like how minimal this case is. It protects what needs to be protected while still giving you the ability to see the actual AirPod case. The blue color is amazing.

After upgrading my iPhone 12Pro Max to the new IPhone 17Pro Max, I was looking for a very unique alternative that provided phone protection yet allowed its gorgeous design to be showcased and admired versus covered up and hidden.

Being a Mechanical Engineer, I started searching for a design that allowed maximum protection for my $1700 investment yet was able to show my Apples iPhone 17 Pro Max craftsmanship (color, design lines, and quality rare materials).

ARC was the only case that checked all the boxes while offering protection with its brilliant industry minimalist design.

I purchased the black titanium case variant , along with the Arc Impact color pieces. I have so many colleagues, friends, and family who love the functional, aesthetic uniqueness, and premium quality of this product.

Great Job Arc. Simple Design can truly be Better

At first I was a bit sceptical, but I love it. I also like that I can tell by feeling my actual phone when the it may be overheating due to issues and reboot it. Excellent protection!
