Overall decent, has a few flaws

Pretty good case overall! Mount implementations works well with my peak handlebar mount. Build quality has held up well. My biggest gripe is the front of the case doesn’t stick out enough/isn’t as firm as it should, so whenever the phone falls face down its almost a guaranteed screen protector replacement needed. Luckily my screen has been fine underneath, but we’re on screen protector 3 in 4 months. My old iPhone 13 w/ the standard case and a glass screen protector only ever broke one protector in ~4 years.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Another great case!

I’m very happy with my Gnar Case. The screen lip provides plenty of protection so not sure what other users were complaining about. The sage looks awesome with the orange iPhone 17 pro!

Just bad

I have so many great Peak Design products, but this case is really that bad! After just two weeks of use, my screen protector is completely shattered. As many others have already pointed out here, the front edge is simply far too low and doesn’t protect the display at all. I love the bike mount, but now I have to go back to the competition because the cases are just bad. Please redesign the cases!

Make the camera lip protection better and put a loop on it, then it would be five stars. Can't believe how PD dropped the ball this.

No lip for screen protection.

I got the GNAR case for my new iPhone 17 Pro but there's almost no lip for the screen. Putting a screen protector on it only makes it worse as it sticks out even more. And sure enough, less than a week later, the screen protector chipped in one corner.
There really needs to be a version 2 of this case with better screen protection.

I do not recommend buying this case.

with this case. I have been using the Peak Design GNAR case with my iPhone 17 Pro for just under three weeks and I’ve already cracked two Zagg protective screens. There haven’t even been any significant drops. I’ve already ordered another company’s case that I have used with previous iPhone models and had great success. While the GNARR case looks very nice in my experience it does a terrible job of protecting the screen on drops.

Good looking and it feels premium

This cover exceeded my expectations in both quality and design. The material feels exceptionally premium, offering a smooth yet durable finish that provides a secure grip without adding unnecessary bulk. It fits the iPhone 17 perfectly, aligning precisely with the buttons and camera cutouts. The color combination complements the orange iPhone beautifully, creating a sleek and stylish overall look. Overall, this is a well-crafted and thoughtfully designed cover that enhances both the appearance and protection of the device.
I would recommend this to a friend!
