For weeks, I’ve been putting the Airpods Pro 2nd Generation Case Cover with Lock (Model FA ZFC630) through its paces. This case promises rugged protection, a secure lock, and convenient portability – all vital aspects for someone who relies on their AirPods Pro 2 daily. But does it deliver?

My testing involved everything from accidental drops (don’t worry, no major damage!), to daily wear and tear, and extensive use of both wired and wireless charging. Let’s dive into the details.

The FA ZFC630 boasts a dual-material construction (TPU and PC) for enhanced shock absorption. The secure lock mechanism, a prominent feature, keeps the AirPods Pro 2 case safely tucked inside, preventing accidental openings and ensuring dust and debris stay out. The integrated keychain is a practical touch, particularly for those on the go. The case also features a visible LED indicator for charging status and a cleverly designed bottom to accommodate both wired and wireless charging, a critical aspect not all cases manage to execute effectively.

The shock absorption is genuinely impressive. I’ve accidentally dropped my AirPods Pro 2 (in the case) several times from relatively low heights – no damage whatsoever. The lock is easy to use, although it took a couple of tries to get the hang of the ‘perfect’ click. The keychain is sturdy and hasn’t shown any signs of wear and tear. Charging with the case on worked seamlessly with both wired and wireless chargers. The LED indicator is easily visible, even in low light.

However, there’s a slight bulkiness introduced by the case, which is expected given the level of protection it offers. It’s certainly not pocket-sized, especially when considering the carabiner keychain.

Pros:

• Excellent shock absorption and protection.
• Secure locking mechanism.
• Convenient keychain for easy portability.
• Compatible with both wired and wireless charging.
• Visible charging LED indicator.

Cons:

• Adds noticeable bulk to the AirPods Pro 2 case.
• The lock mechanism requires a little getting used to.

Overall, the Airpods Pro 2nd Generation Case Cover with Lock (FA ZFC630) is a solid choice for users seeking robust protection for their AirPods Pro 2. The secure lock and convenient keychain add significant value, and the compatibility with both charging methods is a major plus. While the added bulk is a minor drawback, the peace of mind knowing my AirPods Pro 2 are well-protected outweighs this. I wholeheartedly recommend this case to anyone prioritizing safety and portability for their valuable earbuds.
