When it comes to rugged cases, how can we leave Spigen from the list? Spigen’s rugged case is compatible with wireless charging and MagSafe accessories.

It’s a magnet-integrated case compatible with MagSafe wallets, chargers, and other accessories. A rugged design also offers Resilient Shock Absorption against hard falls. Looking closely at the case, you will notice a Carbon Fiber design to offer extreme protection as well.

Although the Spigen case is MagSafe compatible, don’t expect a rock-solid connection with the accessories. Many users have reported the phone slipping down from the holder. The case is available in Matte Black color only.
