Update: These new Arc Pulse iPhone 17 cases are now available for pre-order on the official site.
Arc – makers of arguably the most minimalist phone case on the market and the best bumper iPhone cases around – is ready to unleash its latest for iPhone 17. We are on the ground at Apple Park for today’s “Awe dropping” event, but before the show kicks off Arc is officially debuting the new Arc Pulse collection for iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max. Pre-orders are live today on the official site and you can get a closer look down below.
Arc Pulse – the best metal iPhone 17 bumper cases
The most unique case on the market is back for iPhone 17. Arc is once again employing “precision-machined” aerospace-grade metals, each of which providing “custom” shock-absorbing inlays made specifically to fit snugly on the new iPhone 17 designs.
I have been testing out these Arc Pulse bumper cases over the last couple generations personally – here’s my review of the iPhone 16 Pro model – and have come away nothing but impressed. There’s is nothing like a proper American leather case for me personally, but there’s actually nothing quite like an Arc Pulse.
It allows the Apple design and colorway to shine through without leaving your precious new handset entirely vulnerable to bumps, drops, and bruises. The two piece design pops on to both the top and bottom of your device, protecting the corners all the way around as well as offering some lift around the camera area on the back. There are no adhesives used here at all – it is just designed in such a way that allows the bumpers to snap into place perfectly around the device, and it looks like this will once again be the case with the new iPhone 17 camera rig shapes.
Alongside a far more pricey exclusive Titanium Onyx Black edition for the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max that is forged from a “single block of Aerospace Grade4Titanium and coated in Onyx Black Tungsten Carbide,” this year’s Arc Pulse bumper cases for iPhone 17 will come in six colors for the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max:
- Matte Black $69.99
- Polished Silver $89.99
- Polished Graphite $99.99
- Polished Rose Bronze $109.99
- Polished Gold $129.99
- Titanium Onyx Black $299.99
And two colorways for the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air:
Pre-orders for all models are now live on the official Arc site. We have been told by the brand that shipments will begin on September 22, 2025 (although timing may vary slightly by region).
According to the site, there are no additional tariff fees for U.S. customers.
