What is Polycarbonate?

Polycarbonate is a very tough form of plastic that has very high impact-resistance. In addition to phone cases and other consumer electronics, polycarbonate is used in helmets, masks, police riot gear, and other applications where strength, durability, and lightweight are priorities.

TPU (Thermoplastic polyurethane) is a form of plastic that can be hard or soft and is known for its elasticity and resistance to oil grease and abrasion. In addition to it being a great material to protect your phone, it is also used for caster wheels, power tools, sporting goods, etc. We use 85D TPU on our phone case to provide optimum drop protection, grip for your hands, and optimum magnet performance.

How long will the Galaxy S23 Rugged Case last?

The average customer will have their case as long as they have their phone. Customers rarely take advantage of the two-year warranty because the cases are so tough. In the unlikely event that something does happen to the case, give us a call, and we will take care of it.

Will this case work with other companies' magnetic mounts?

Maybe. Some magnetic mounts used four small magnets facing North and South and are generally used to stick to a metal plate. Our magnets face South on the case and North on our Mounts, so if you are using a non-ROKFORM mount, the performance will not be very good because the magnets in the non-ROKFORM mount are resisting against the magnet in the ROKFORM mount. We recommend ROKFORM magnetic mounts for our cases because they are designed to work together.

How strong are the magnets?

The magnets in the case are very strong N52 Neodymium. These are the highest grade available. The bottom line, your phone is not going anywhere once stuck to a magnetic surface, especially with both magnets engaged.

N52 Neodymium. The highest grade available.
