Our favorite AirPods Pro 2 cases in 2024

AirPods Pro 2 are certainly near the top of the list when it comes to the best accessories for modern iPhones. They're about as easy to pair as possible, they work flawlessly with iOS, and they offer super sound with active noise cancelation. In our AirPods Pro 2 review, XDA Senior Editor Ben Sin called them "excellent in almost every facet — fit and comfort, construction, and audio quality."

They also tend to last for years, which is why it's always a good idea to add a protective case. The charging case that comes with the pods can get scratched up before you know it; those who place their AirPods and keys in the same pocket will know exactly to what I'm referring.

If we're making one suggestion for most people, it has to be Spigen's Rugged Armor. This case is lightweight but durable, it protects against drops and scrapes, and it has a built-in carabiner for easy clipping onto your other hardware or bags. There's even a loop cutout for a lanyard if you'd like to attach it that way. Those looking for something similar, albeit with a bit more luxury, should check out Casetify's leather case. It, too, has a built-in carabiner, and it comes in a bunch of different colors.
