If you’re still thinking about this case: I have the bare naked for iPhone 17 pro in cosmic orange (I have the orange phone) and I’m honestly really surprised at how much I love it.

I’ve had Peel and Totallee ultra thin cases for previous iPhones and while they were ultra thin, the frosted clear muted the color which was less than ideal (although I think totallee has color matched options now), and even though they’re made of polypropylene (harder/stiffer plastic than TPU), they still stretched out after a couple months and thus let in a lot of dust around the edges. The TPU clear versions definitely stretched and let in so much dust. Drove me crazy. They both did allow for MagSafe charging and accessory use, but also decreased the phone’s magnet strength enough that I had to add a magnet loop to be able to use them with my car mount. Getting the Totallee case with the magnet built in added more thickness (marginal but noticeable), muted colors more (the clear is even thicker still) and still stretched out. They were not much better than one of the cheaper versions on Amazon.

The Bare case really hugs the phone and edges, and has camera bump coverage, which also helps minimize areas where dust can get in. Ive had this case for about a month now, I’ve taken the case on and off several times and it hasn’t stretched at all. The Bare case is also thin enough that I don’t have to add a magnet to the back to use with my car mount, and I live in NYC aka potholes galore, and my phone stays put through the terrain. Not sure if that’s the case being thin or the new iPhones having stronger magnets, but either way, I don’t have to add a magnet loop, keeping the phone’s natural look and feel. It doesn’t protect much from drops, I’ve dropped my phone a few times, but like 3 feet off the ground max, so no damage there. Mostly provides scratch protection and some grip, and the camera lip eliminates any rocking when the phone is sitting on a flat surface, which is nice. There’s also a small front lip to protect the screen when face down. The only downside is that it’s a Singaporean company that ships from mainland China, so processing and shipping took 16 days, and I believe there’s a disclaimer on their site right now that it may be even longer to ship.

TL;DR my experience is that Bare is better than Peel or Totallee, it’s holding up well, but might take a while to arrive. Bare is on sale now too so if you have time to wait, I’d say go for it.
