I was looking for a rugged case and picked up this Poetic Spartan for my iPhone 12 in military green. I can't get over how nice it looks and how sturdy it feels. It has great lip protection on the camera and front screen, and comes with two frames (1 if you want to use your own screen protector and 1 if you want to use their built-in screen protector). I've never seen a rugged case that is this good before that also has a built-in screen protector. Funny enough, when I was taking these photos I dropped the phone by accident and not a scratch on my phone or case. What's your most favourite rugged case?
Got a tip for us?

This looks nice! Much better than my Supcase Unicorn beetle but the added bonus is that I superglued a metallic pad to the belt holster that came with it to easily attach to my vent in my car

That’s a genius idea! Instead of attaching it to the phone you put it on the holster. I got this gravity type of phone holster for my car but had to go through a couple holsters to find one that would fit rugged cases lol.
I don’t drop my phone a lot but when I do I know I’ll have no issues with a rugged case on my phone. I get anxiety putting on a thinner case.

Thanks! It’s so much easier to slip the phone into the holster and attach to the dashboard of the car. I’ve not used a suction cup style phone holder for years now.
Ha I’m the same when going places. I’m not keen on thinner cases even if they do feel nice. I save my thinner cases for around the home and in my garden.
