Today we’re taking a look at the Torras O1 Guardian case for the iPhone 17 Pro Max. Thanks to Torras for sending these cases over in the O1 Guardian case line up and for sponsoring this video. The Guardian O1 cases are constructed with a Polycarbonate backing for strength and a TPU bumper all along the sides of the case. This is an ideal material make up in my opinion, the PC holds the case together and the TPU is like a rubbery type of plastic so it will definitely absorb fall damage when your iPhone inevitably goes flying out of your hands. There’s a good amount of material here on the sides, top, and bottom and the corners seem to resist pressure pretty well. This case also features an important screen protection feature in the form of the raised bezel all along the perimeter of the case screen side. The TPU extends up past the height of the glass which means that if you drop your Pro Max on a hard flat surface like concrete or a street, the glass won’t actually touch the ground because the case will make the initial impact at any angle on flat surfaces. You want the case to take the brunt of that impact, not your glass. The outer surface of this case is lightly textured which is nice, it’s not obnoxious or anything but it’s subtle and a nice add on in my opinion, the more grip you have on your case basically means you are less likely to drop your phone in the first place. This also helps to create a feeling of resistance or anti-slip which is nice. As for the camera protection strategy, we have a larger camera cutout region with a built up bezel all around it. This bezel for the camera area functions just like the front side, we gain an extra 1 to 2 mm worth of gap between those camera lenses and any flat surface that your Pro max might end up impacting. We are getting MagSafe accessory support from the built in rotating pop out ring. The magnetic force is decent from testing and the ring popping out is quite versatile in that it can function like a stand or how a mag ring would for extra holding or gripping positions which is nice because it’s built into the case, you don’t have to buy another accessory. For me, I use those kickstands for streaming videos but it also is helpful for video calling as well. As you saw, I have the all clear, blue and black cases here today, this O1 Guardian comes in a few color options. Both the blue and black cases have that frosted backing but it’s much less transparent than most other cases which I actually prefer. For me, I’m a fan of the blue but it’s up to you what you go with. I think this is a solid case option for the iPhone 17 Pro Max if you like the case design, colors, and features offered.
