The best cases for Apple Watch Ultra in 2022
The Apple Watch Ultra is the most durable and feature-packed wearable device Apple has ever made. And, no doubt, it can withstand a lot and does not really need a case to protect it, but my mind says otherwise. If you’re among those looking to get a case for your newly purchased Apple Watch Ultra, I’ve put together a list of the best cases you can get right now.
1. Spigen Rugged Armor Case – Editors’ Choice
Spigen is one of the few brands known for making cases that are tough and thin to keep your devices well protected. Spigen Rugged Armor is the perfect choice for those who want to make the Apple Watch Ultra even bigger before it gets the iconic G-Shock watch. The top and bottom bezels are engraved with RUGGED ARMOR and SHOCK RESIST, while the angular design protrudes to protect the screen.
Made from durable thermoplastic polyurethane, which is simply TPU, the Rugged Armor case features a one-piece construction. It also boasts precise cutouts not only for sensors on the back, but also for the Digital Crown, three microphone holes, 10 speaker holes, and a button above the action button that retains the original haptic feedback of the device.
pros
- Rugged construction
- Made from durable TPU
- Tactile buttons
Minuses
- Adds some volume
2. Misxi PC Hard Case – Clear Cover
Clear cases allow you to flaunt the design of your device while also providing protection. The Misxi Hard PC Case is an ultra-thin protective case. It comes with a tempered glass screen protector that is 9H hard and helps maintain the natural touch and feel of the Apple Watch Ultra display. Moreover, it does not degrade the display quality.
You no longer need to worry about scratches on your display. It is a transparent body with precise cutouts for the digital crown, microphone and speakers. The process of applying the case is also quite simple. Also in the kit you get 2 transparent protective cases with protective films for the screen. Now you can flaunt your Apple Watch and protect it at the same time.
pros
- Tempered glass with 9H hardness
- Clear body with precise cutouts
Minuses
- Users report that there is dust in the crevices of the case.
3. amBand case – waterproof
Apple claims that the Apple Watch Ultra is water resistant to a depth of 100 meters. However, most of us will not dive into such depths every day. And if you’re looking to add extra water resistance to your Apple Watch Ultra as well as extra protection, the amBand waterproof case is the perfect choice. It protects your watch from scratches, bumps and accidental drops.
Plus, the tempered glass that’s included is responsive, much like the case’s buttons are pressed, and the cutouts are just as accurate. Finally, an O-ring between the polycarbonate case and the tempered glass helps the amBand case keep water out of the screen. It also prevents fogging and even prevents the formation of water bubbles that occur due to the accumulation of water between the case and the screen. You will also receive 2 packs of screen protectors and cases.
pros
- Waterproof design
- Slim profile to keep the original feel of the watch in hand
Minuses
- There are no significant cons
4. Qoosea bumper cover – shockproof option
The Qoosea Shockproof Bumper Case is a 360-degree protective case that covers all four corners and sides of your Apple Watch Ultra. The case is made of high quality shock-absorbing (thermoplastic polyurethane) TPU, which provides more strength and protection than traditional polycarbonate.
Case cutouts are not always accurate, but in the case of the Qoosea shockproof bumper case, they are not. Plus, it’s easy to apply because you don’t have to take your Apple Watch off your hands, you can simply snap the case on. It also does not get in the way when changing the watch strap. And you get two cases for the price of one.
pros
- Rugged construction with 360 degree protection
- You can install the case without removing your Apple Watch
- Inexpensive
Minuses
- There are no significant cons
5. VeveXiao rugged case – with strap
The VeveXiao Rugged Case for Apple Watch is a unique product. This is not just a case, but straps attached to the case made of the same materials. While we’re talking about materials, the case is made of polycarbonate, the strap is made of flexible TPU, and the stainless steel buckle helps you adjust the strap to fit perfectly on your wrist.
The bezels are raised to protect the screen from scratches, while shock-resistant materials protect your watch from accidental knocks and drops. In addition, the cutouts are precise and do not interfere with the operation of any of the sensors. If you own an Apple Watch and tend to change bands frequently, VeveXiao is a great choice as they are available in 12 different color options so you can also collect from them.
pros
- Shockproof design
- Case with attached straps
- Stainless steel buckle
- Wide range of colors to choose from
Minuses
- There are no significant cons
