I’ve spent two weeks with this case so far and it’s already helped the phone survive a drop on tile and one on asphalt. I’ll update a bit later into the case’s lifetime but I’m honestly already pretty impressed. It’s not bulky at all, and it’s machined well; all the features on the case are sized and spaced appropriately for an iPhone (Pro 14, in my case). The clear material is slightly tacky, compared with the Apple brand, which helps grip in hand without being, like, sticky. The raised lip around the screen protects well and the slight bumpered corners help absorb impact from tumbles without adding the kind of bulk that affects its fit in pockets, which is really nice (the old Ballistic brand cases had the best corner protection but it cost me being able to fit the phone in places I wish I could have, sadly—this seems like a good tradeoff so far).

The shape of the camera guard also diffuses the flashlight glow a bit so I can get just a little, indirect light from it when it’s face down on a surface, which is often perfect and one of the selling points of the clear Apple case I had before. I don’t think this will work with the opaque cases. Hopefully this material is resistant to the yellowing/browning that happened to the Apple case (barely lasted a year).

As of right now I’d say get this if you want a well-built, basic case at a decent price that stands up to realistic drops and accidents. Good chance I’ll still say that by time this one retires, too.
