Monarch


UAG’s Monarch Series is the ultimate in drop protection.

The flagship of UAG’s line, Monarch is handcrafted from premium materials like leather and carbon fiber, and includes alloy metal hardware. A soft, impact-resistant core protects iPhone SE from drops, doubling military drop-test standards, while oversized tactile buttons provide easy access to handset controls. A protective screen surround thwarts cracks from face-down drops. The Monarch is available for $59.95 from Amazon in black and crimson color options.

Pathfinder


UAG’s Pathfinder offers up good looks and solid protection.

UAG’s Pathfinder Series comes in at a close second to the Monarch with its rugged outer shell and impact resistant soft core that meets military drop-test standards. Though it features a lightweight composite construction, the Pathfinder integrates the same oversized tactile buttons, scratch resistant skid pads and screen surround as its larger sibling. Grab one in black or olive drab from Amazon for $39.95. A midnight camo option is also available at a $10 premium.

Plasma


UAG’s Plasma Series marries good looks and a rugged construction.

A take on the Pathfinder, UAG’s Plasma Series offers identical military-level drop protection and rugged design with an attractive translucent armor shell. Inside the feather-light composite outer is an impact resistant soft core flanked by oversized tactile buttons and cutouts for easy access to the screen and Lightning port. Scratch resistant skid pads and screen surround round out the offering. Plasma is offered in Ice and Ash colorways and sells for $39.95 on Amazon.

Civilian


The UAG Civilian Series features HyperCush shock-absorbing technology.

For those looking for the pinnacle in protection with a minimalist design, UAG offers the Civilian Series. Like its other cases, Civilian incorporates a lightweight composite construction. Inside, however, the case differs from UAG’s other lines with the integration of HyperCush, a shock-absorbing system that features two layers of material formed into a dynamic hexagon pattern. The usual tactile button controls, easy access to handset ports and screen surround are included. Civilian is available in black and olive drab for $49.95 on Amazon.

Plyo


The Plyo’s corner cushions prevent damage from hard impacts.

Stripping things down even further is Plyo, a high performance skin suit for iPhone that features soft corners for cushioning against impacts and a composite construction for sturdy military-level drop protection.

Outback


UAG uses 100% compostable material to make the sleek Outback.

Rounding out UAG’s iPhone SE lineup is the new Outback.

A raised camera bevel adds protection to the rear, while the case itself is drop tested to military standards. Outback sells for $39.95 from Amazon and is available in black, lilac and olive drab.
