Are iPhone 17 cases still necessary?

The iPhone 17 series will officially go on sale in Vietnam from September 19th, allowing many consumers to hold and experience them firsthand.

Whether or not to buy a phone case is a question many iPhone users ask themselves.

Are old phone cases compatible with the iPhone 17?

If you want to protect your iPhone 17, buying a new case specifically designed for this model is a good idea. This is because the iPhone 17 has a 6.3-inch screen, larger than the 6.1-inch screen of the previous iPhone 16. Even though the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max have the same screen size as the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max, the camera module and side buttons are significantly different.

While users might try to fit a case from a previous generation into the iPhone 17, this is not recommended. The small size difference could result in the phone not being properly protected, rendering the case useless.

Specifically for the iPhone Air, because it's a completely new product in the iPhone family that Apple just launched, users don't have any old phone cases that will work.

So, do you need a case for the iPhone 17?

All iPhone 17 models feature an aluminum frame and a front panel equipped with Ceramic Shield 2 technology, just like the iPhone Air. The back of the iPhone 17 series is still just colored tempered glass like the iPhone 16, unlike the iPhone Air which has a Ceramic Shield back panel that is said to be four times more crack-resistant. However, since there are no previous models to compare it to, we will have to wait for user reviews on the durability of the iPhone Air.

Despite being protected by premium materials, the durability of the iPhone Air remains questionable.

All new iPhone models are IP68 water and dust resistant, meaning they can withstand submersion in up to 6 meters for 30 minutes. However, Apple advises against swimming or exposing iPhones to high-pressure water, as water damage will not be covered under warranty.

Ultimately, whether or not to buy a case for the iPhone 17 and Air is entirely a matter of personal preference. If you want to enjoy the iPhone's elegant design and test its durability under everyday use, a case may not be necessary. However, it's best to consider adding AppleCare+ for better device protection.

If you decide to buy a phone case, consider Apple's new TechWoven cases and products from other reputable accessory manufacturers instead of cases from lesser-known brands.
