Performance Pro Case for iPhone 17 Pro

Great case. My phone tends to overheat when it’s charging in my truck, but with this case that no longer is an issue. I guess it really does have good ventilation.

I wanted a protective phone case that had good heat dissipation characteristics, and this seems to do the trick! My last iPhone had heating issues with a different case that didn't allow for air flow. A side benefit is that the audio comes out through the vents on the sides of the case making for a nice resonance when the phone is on a surface. The case adds microphone holes that point out toward the mouth channeling sound directly into it, which I think adds to voice clarity. The case easily snapped (installed) around the phone and feel snug. I have only had the case for a day, so I can't speak on how scratch resistant it is... But its purpose is to take a beating so the phone doesn't. And, I don't plan to test out the 18-foot drop protectivity any time soon! If I'm lucky, it won't drop more than a few feet... if at all. I tried the built-in side stand, and it seems to be OK. I keep my phone to me left, so the stand tends point the phone away from me. I like the case.

I started having the other buttons press while I'd be walking with the phone in my back pocket. The Power button would wake up the phone and hang up a call. The volume…
