Brief characteristics of the models from the review can be found in the comparison table of overlays for iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro. A complete list of cases for mobile phones is presented in the catalog section of the same name.

Slim and light, minimalistic design, price.
There are no significant downsides.

The Spigen Crystal Hybrid case does not hide the essence of the iPhone 12, allowing it to remain in plain sight. It is intended for everyday protection of the "apple" smartphone from all sorts of minor damage.

Structurally, the overlay consists of a polyurethane bumper with a plastic structure and a transparent polycarbonate “back”. The vast majority of users prefer a colourless model, but there are also cases on sale with light shades of one color or another. They retain transparency for a long time and are resistant to yellowing.

Spigen Crystal Hybrid has a pronounced resistance to stretching, tearing and all kinds of scratches. And the hard side panel around the entire perimeter of the case stands up to drops. Of course, the pad does not guarantee 100% protection, but in some cases it can prevent a sad outcome when the smartphone falls from a small height.

Despite the multi-layer structure, the case practically does not thicken the smartphone and leaves the benefits of using MagSafe wireless magnetic charging. The magnetic ring on it is not duplicated. Also, the smartphone in the case lies tenaciously in the hands and is easily removed from the pocket. The last important argument in favor of the model is the affordable pricing policy for the product.

Shock-absorbing design, military-grade rating, reinforced corners, screen protector and camera bumper.
Brutal design.

from Urban Armor Gear have more than once come to the rescue when a smartphone falls. All thanks to the incredible shockproof properties that they possess. For owners of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro, the brand's portfolio includes the UAG Plasma Protected Case.

The "holster" from UAG is made in the brutal design of the corrugated structure characteristic of the "defenders". Its inner part has a perforated honeycomb structure to effectively absorb and dissipate the force of impact when the gadget falls to the floor. The case's shock-resistant properties are backed up by certification in accordance with US military standard MIL-STD-810G Section 516.6("Mechanical shock and drop").

The cover "sits" on the smartphone like a glove, does not interfere with the operation of contactless payment systems and wireless charging. It is made of polyurethane with an anti-slip coating. Additional protection for a mobile device in a "holster" is provided by reinforced corners and protruding sides on the side of the screen and the main camera unit.

The design of the case provides cutouts for connectors and speakers, as well as sensitive pads on the buttons to ensure a good tactile response. The model retains free access to all functions of the smartphone and reliably protects it from all sorts of adversities. Inappropriate cover looks only in the hands of a fragile girl. However, against the background of other advantages, this flaw can be safely neglected.

Perfect fit, built-in MagSafe magnet, microfiber interior, hard plastic ring around camera cutout.
There are no significant downsides.

In light of the advent of MagSafe wireless charging technology, Apple's branded cases for iPhones are now equipped with a magnetic ring. The Apple Silicone Case with MagSafe was no exception to the rule.

The cover perfectly "sits" on the smartphone and covers all vulnerabilities. Recall that in the model of the previous generation Apple Silicone Case for iPhone 11, the “chin” remained open. A full-fledged face at the bottom protects the lower end of the iPhone, it has holes for the speakers and a cutout for the Lighthing charging connector. Another new addition is a hard plastic bezel around the camera cutout that doubles as an additional brace.

The interior of the product is made of soft microfiber. It prevents scratches on the body and edges of the mobile phone. On the side of the case are duplicate buttons for volume control and lock / unlock "iPhone". They are pressed very easily and almost do not stick out of the case, due to which false positives are excluded.

When “dressing” the smartphone in a case, an animation is displayed on the screen of the “mobile phone”. Moreover, the color of the MagSafe ring and the background in it matches the shade of a particular case. This was achieved by introducing a special NFC tag into the overlay design. On the shelves of stores, the model is presented in eight colors for every taste - everyone can choose a case for the iPhone, based on their own preferences.

Aramid fiber, built-in MagSafe magnet, pleasant tactile feeling, thin and light, original design.
There are no significant downsides.

PITAKA is renowned for quality, well thought out and well made Apple accessories. The best confirmation of this in practice is a practical case for the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro called MagEZ Case.

The key advantage of the overlay is the materials of manufacture. It was "woven" from aramid fiber. The cover turned out to be high-strength and light, and tactile sensations from touching it cause downright aesthetic pleasure. The textured pattern allows the PITAKA MagEZ Case to stand out from its peers, and it also provides a comfortable grip for a “dressed” smartphone in your hand.

From the inside, the case was equipped with a backup magnetic ring for MagSafe wireless charging systems. Cutouts are provided for the buttons on the side faces of the iPhone case and the Lighthing charging connector. Moreover, the pad fits snugly to the body of the smartphone and does not slip in the hands. Not to say that it reliably protects the mobile gadget from damage during bumps and drops, but the cover looks like a "10 out of 10".

PITAKA MagEZ Case is resistant to temperature changes, leaves free access to all ports, buttons and connectors, and most importantly, its original texture beckons. Together with it, the iPhone will add about 0.85 mm in thickness and become only 17 g heavier. The model emphasizes the appearance of the smartphone and helps to avoid scratches on the glass at the back.

Perfect fit, built-in MagSafe magnet, anti-slip, thin and light.
There are no significant downsides.

When buying an iPhone, many choose original accessories to pair with it. One of these is the Apple Clear Case with MagSafe silicone case, which gives the smartphone invisible protection against minor mechanical injuries.

The model is made of transparent polycarbonate and flexible materials. The dense structure of the cover fits all the functional buttons, and the correct cutouts do not interfere with the daily use of the iPhone. To guard against accidental damage to the screen and the rear camera block, small protrusions are placed above these areas.

The highlight of the overlay is considered to be the built-in MagSafe magnet, which exactly matches the magnetic pad on board the 12th iPhone and its Pro version. The circle of the magnet looks organically coupled with an oblong identification mark, and in its center is the logo of a bitten apple on the “back” of the smartphone. "Kruglyash" is introduced into the design of the case to combine the smartphone with the charging station, which eliminates incidents with an unsuccessful connection.

Unlike hordes of non-genuine cases, Apple Clear Case with MagSafe does not turn yellow over time. For one cycle of his life, there are several generations of third-party overlays. Therefore, it is better to get a “native” cover once, rather than change them like gloves. Investing in the purchase of a model will result in a beautiful appearance of the smartphone and excellent protection of the iPhone from scratches.
