For the past few weeks, I’ve been testing the ROCKCSE R13-CL107 clear protective case for the iPhone 13 Pro (6.1 inch). This case promises a slim fit, shock absorption, and scratch resistance – a trifecta of features many users seek. Let’s dive into the details and see how it performs in real-world scenarios.

The R13-CL107 boasts a dual-layer design: a hard PC back and a shock-absorbent TPU bumper. This combination aims to protect against drops and impacts while maintaining a relatively thin profile. The clear back allows the iPhone’s aesthetics to shine through, which is a plus for those who appreciate the phone’s design. Precise cutouts ensure easy access to all ports and buttons. The raised bezels around the screen and camera are a thoughtful addition, offering extra protection against scratches when the phone is laid flat.

The marketing materials emphasize the case’s “anti-yellow” properties – a crucial aspect for clear cases as they tend to yellow over time. We’ll explore this claim in the performance section.

In terms of protection, the R13-CL107 has performed admirably. I’ve accidentally dropped my iPhone a couple of times from waist height, and the case has successfully absorbed the impact with no damage to the phone itself. The TPU bumper provides a good grip, reducing the chances of accidental drops in the first place. The raised bezels have proven effective in preventing screen and camera scratches.

The clarity of the case has remained impressive after several weeks of use. I haven’t noticed any significant yellowing, which is a positive sign that the “anti-yellow” claim holds up. However, time will tell how well this holds up in the long run. The slim fit is also a noticeable benefit; it doesn’t add much bulk to the phone, keeping it comfortable to hold and use.

Cutouts are precise, and I haven’t experienced any issues with button responsiveness or wireless charging.

Pros

• Excellent shock absorption
• Effective scratch resistance
• Maintains a slim profile
• Precise cutouts
• Good grip
• Clear back shows off phone design

Cons

• Long-term yellowing resistance needs further evaluation (more time needed to be truly certain).
• Some might find the case a bit too basic in terms of design features.

Overall, the ROCKCSE R13-CL107 is a solid protective case for the iPhone 13 Pro. Its dual-layer design provides effective protection against drops and scratches, while the slim fit and clear back maintain the phone’s aesthetic appeal. The lack of excessive yellowing is a real plus. While long-term yellowing resistance remains to be fully tested, its initial performance and protective capabilities make it a worthwhile option for users seeking a balance between protection and style. I would recommend this case to anyone looking for a reliable and clear case for their iPhone 13 Pro.
