UAG is one of the leading brands in cases for our iPhones for its design, quality and protection, but it also has more accessories for our Apple products. We have selected the best ones for iPhone and Apple Watch and we show them below.
Urban Armor Gear (UAG) has been manufacturing cases for our iPhone since 2012 with a characteristic design and maximum protection as a trademark. Since its first iPhone 4 case, the brand has evolved, adapting its cases to new devices and always adding the latest technologies in their manufacture. Based on the design of the “Jerry Cans” (liquid containers for transporting gasoline or water that became popular during World War II), it has a wide catalog of covers that has been enriched year after year with other accessories such as cables, Apple Watch bands , chargers, etc. Below we show you the products we like the most. from its catalog tested on the iPhone 15 Pro Max and the Apple Watch Ultra 2 but also available for other models.
Monarch Pro MagSafe
It is one of their most iconic cases for several generations of iPhone and the one that offers us the greatest protection. A very robust design and top quality materials such as leather to which we must add polycarbonate and rubber that form a total of five layers of materials to offer protection against falls up to 7.6 meters high
The grip is excellent and the pressure on its buttons, despite being a very robust case, is really good, with a dedicated button for the action button, no openings in the case that require inserting your finger to press it. Of course, it has openings for a microphone and speaker, as well as for the USB-C / Lightning connection that allows you to use all types of cables, not just those with a thin connector. It integrates MagSafe technology with a good magnetic hold and is available in different colors and for all iPhones from the 14 model onwards. There are also other models that use carbon fiber instead of leather in their materials. Available for $79.99 on Amazon (link) prices may vary depending on the material you choose.
Essential Armor
The Essential Armor is more suited to everyday use or those who don’t want such a rugged case. Thinner, lighter, and featuring a translucent design available in blue and pink, this case offers a high fall protection, reaching up to 4.6 meters in height. Like the previous model, it is reinforced at the corners and has protection for the camera module and the edge protrudes slightly from the front so you can place your iPhone face down without damaging the screen. It has an interior hexagonal pattern visible from the outside, and the hexagonal design of the MagSafe system gives it a unique look.
Its grip and button support are excellent, and it also allows you to connect any type of USB-C/Lightning cable thanks to a wide enough opening. It is undoubtedly one of the most balanced cases in terms of protection and design, one of my favorites for the iPhone 15 Pro Max, which is also available for other models, starting with the iPhone 13. At the moment it is not available in stores like Amazon, but it is. You can buy it on the UAG website for $39.95
Scout Band for Apple Watch
A lightweight silicone bracelet, very flexible and soft but with maximum safety thanks to its stainless steel buckle and the “Tuck” system, which, as with Apple’s sports bands, inserts the excess strap inside, which not only increases security but also gives it a better aesthetic appearance. It is available in several colors, including this military green that you see in the images and an intense orange that looks spectacular with the Apple Watch Ultra.
It is available for all sizes of Apple Watch, being perfectly compatible with the Apple Watch Ultra. It is a very comfortable strap, which you can easily get wet because it is not only waterproof but also dries quickly, and is perfect for summer or sports practice. It is also not available on Amazon but You can buy it in their official store for $39.95
Trestles Bracelet for Apple Watch
In collaboration with Rip Curl, the UAG Trestles bracelet is made of silicone, which is not as flexible as the previous model but just as comfortable and resistant to water and sweat. Designed for very active people, the Rip Curl branding is very discreet on the bracelet, as is the polka dot pattern on its entire exterior surface. Like the previous model, the buckle is made of stainless steel, and the security of the bracelet is maximum. Its price is $29.99 on the official website (link).
Rugged USB-C Cable
A lifetime cable that you can use with all your devices. This UAG cable with Kevlar core will bore you before it breaks thanks to its manufacture with one of the most resistant materials that exist.

It is available in gray / black 7 orange / black and has a silicone strap to keep it perfectly in place when not in use. Its length is 1.5 meters and its price is $29.95 (link).
