I ordered the latest dbrand Ghost 2.0 Case with MagSafe for iPhone 17 Pro Max from Best Buy. But Best Buy sent me the wrong version. It was SUPPOSED to be the clear case with the black grippy bumper border around the entire edge of the iPhone & black MagSafe magnets on the back (like the case shown in the Best Buy product page). Instead, they sent me the WRONG clear case with a clear border that was not as rugged or grippy & it had white magnets. It fit my iPhone, but was not the version I ordered. I brought it back & told the cashier to inform Best Buy there is something wrong with their stock. It was in the correct box, but the wrong case was inside. I then ordered it directly from the dbrand website & it was delivered a few days later. The case is great! The clear back really lets the vibrant orange of my iPhone be easily seen. It is one of the few cases out there that also surrounds the camera array on the back to protect that area from scratches. The black bumper surrounding the edge of the phone is grippy & provides robust protection without being bulky. The buttons all align & work properly. The MagSafe magnets are strong. I can easily charge my case wirelessly with the case on. I highly recommend this case, Hopefully Best Buy can correct their inventory to provide the correct version of this case.

Overall, this is a solid case but it’s not perfect.
Let’s break down the pros and cons:
Pros:
- The case fully covers the aluminum camera housing, which helps prevent scratches.
- The plastic material itself seems fairly scratch-resistant.
- It feels durable in hand and offers a comfortable grip.
- MagSafe
Cons:
- The camera button/slider is disappointing. It doesn’t provide a smooth or seamless sliding experience and lacks responsive feedback.
- The camera button on my case actually fell off and went missing, leaving the button exposed and making the feature essentially unusable.
Final Thoughts:
It’s a good case in terms of protection and feel, but the camera button design and durability could definitely be improved.

Looks great, feels great, protects my phone 100%. I paired this case up with a ZAGG screen protector on my iPhone 17 Pro Max. 100% recommend if you’re looking for a clear case with great protection. It also protects the camera bump, it’s hard to tell on the pictures but it comes with protection around the camera as well.

The case is very good quality and protects almost all major concern points. It’s very clear, doesn’t smudge easily, and is easy to take on and off. My only concern is that the camera lens section of the case isn’t raised so the lenses are almost flush with the case. Dust gets inside the case easier than I’d like. Overall, the case is really good and comfortable.

TLDR - didn’t protect my phone.
I’ve seen these cases advertised on various YouTube channels by various creators. I ordered the ghost case and prism screen protector having been successfully advertised to. They arrived on time and I was ready to welcome my new phone come the big day.
“Installation” was a breeze (insertion?). The case fits snug but isn’t impossible to remove. The sides are grippy and feel reassuring in the hand. The black looks great paired with the orange finish. Very Halloween. The camera plateau is covered, unlike other cases that leave it bare, which is a plus considering the “scratchgate” going on with the pro models of the 17.
The camera control is a bit finicky. If you happen to use it for anything other than launching the camera app, keep that in mind.
So I dropped my phone about a week after having it. I was opening my car door while holding my phone as I’ve done countless times before. I was shocked by a particularly strong bolt of static causing me to open and retract my hand, dropping the phone. No big deal, I thought. I’ve never shattered a screen on any of my phones. I always get a good screen protector and a case. There’ll be a scuff on my “new” case and that’ll make it mine. Nope. The front lip of the case was useless. The frame was dinged. This caused a break on the screen but funnily enough not to the screen protector. So there I was, holding a broken phone encased in protection like some sort of safe housing a shattered Faberge egg inside.
Luckily I have AppleCare however, these new iPhones are so new, they can’t do screen repairs on them. They just ship you a new one. They charge you the cost of the screen repair plus the entire cost of the replacement phone until they receive the broken one. So you’ll have to deal with that if anything happens.
Idk, maybe just bad luck. It’s a nice looking case. Feels good too. I just don’t trust it to protect my replacement phone. Your mileage may vary.
Oh also there’s this weird oil slick/rainbow effect on the apple logo on the back I think is caused by the case being pressed against the phone? No matter how many times I cleaned it, it persisted. Really bugged me.

Case is nice grippy and magsafe magnet is amazing! Buttons are easy to press and not stiff whatsoever! Overall a good case especially protecting the iPhone from where it's susceptible to scratching. I really like this case! One of the best cases ive had.

Great phone case! Phone feels secure, buttons click well, and case won’t yellow over time. A little pricey, but still a great case for someone who only buys one case for their phone. MagSafe also works well with all the MagSafe devices I’ve used so far.

The dbrand ghost 2.0 case is a clear case to get. It's better than the bulky OtterBox cases, looks more modern than the slippery Apple clear case (although the Apple clear case is slim) the Ghost case is also worth its price unlike the Casetify cases lol - give the case a try you may just like it

This case has been my go to case since dBrand started creating them. Light, attractive yet minimal… Pricey compared to some other cases you can get on Amazon, but those cases sacrifice quality and looks. Have to love the sassy advertising of dBrand as well :-)

hands down best clear case i’ve ever owned and I own almost all the big name brand ones out there. The case is very grippy on the sides and the back clear part is clearer than any other clear case i’ve owned. you really have to see it to see what I’m saying.

Love this case it’s one of the very few they give you full protection around the whole back of the camera housing as well as having a grip material on the side so no matter how slippery or sweaty your hands might be It’s easy to grip this case. I dropped it multiple times it’s banged on concrete bounced across the parking lot and my phone never took any damage so that has to mean something.

I am in love with this case. Dbrand does it again with the perfect form fit to my iPhone 17 Pro Max and zero yellowing. I’ve gotten so many compliments because of how cool this case looks and it compliments the iPhone tremendously. If there’s any doubt in buying this, there shouldn’t be. It will last long, scratch less, and not turn yellow!
