We've Updated Our Case Series
Don't worry — you'll still find the same designs, just under new names.
Why We're Renaming Our Case Series
Names like Ultra-Slim, ProGuard, and UltraGuard helped describe features, but over time, they also caused confusion.
At PITAKA, we’ve always focused on advancing aramid fiber weaving to improve everyday carry. As our products evolved, we wanted our names to reflect the experience, not just the specs.
That’s why we renamed our three series as Edge, Cairn, and Summa — inspired by a journey of climbing:
Edge: slim, light, and sharp along the climb (Original name: Ultra-Slim Case)
Cairn: firm and dependable, like stone markers that guide the way (Original name: ProGuard Case)
Summa: the peak, where protection and hand-feel come together (Original name: UltraGuard Case)

Names like Ultra-Slim, ProGuard, and UltraGuard helped describe features, but over time, they also caused confusion.
At PITAKA, we’ve always focused on advancing aramid fiber weaving to improve everyday carry. As our products evolved, we wanted our names to reflect the experience, not just the specs. That’s why we renamed our three series asCairn, Edge, and Summa— inspired by a journey of climbing:* Edge: slim, light, and sharp along the climb (Original name: Ultra-Slim Case)
* Cairn: firm and dependable, like stone markers that guide the way (Original name: ProGuard Case)

Q. What are the differences compared to the iPhone 16 series cases?
A.
* The camera control button has been upgraded to a full-coverage design for more comprehensive protection. It now uses sapphire glass for superior scratch resistance and smoother operation.
* The outer shell material has been updated to PITAKA's self-developed Orca Resin, which offers higher toughness and more than twice the impact and drop resistance compared to conventional resin.
Q. How protective is the Edge series case?
A.
The Edge series is designed to be extremely thin and light, providing a bare-metal-like experience. It offers sufficient protection against daily scratches and minor impacts. However, for stronger shocks or drops, the protection level may not match that of the Cairn or Summa series. If protection is your priority, we recommend choosing one of those alternatives.
Q. Are iPhone 17 cases compatible with lens protectors?
A.
A. Yes, all three iPhone 17 series cases support lens protectors. However, due to the closer-fitting camera ring design of the Cairn model, some lens protectors may have slight fit issues.
Q. Is the iPhone 17 Edge case compatible with a tempered glass screen protector?
A.
Yes, the Edge case does not interfere with the use of a tempered glass screen protector. Its edges are designed to sit nearly flush with the screen, providing a comfortable grip while helping preserve the original feel and look of the iPhone as much as possible. Please note that with this design, a tempered glass protector may sit slightly higher than the case edges, but this will not affect normal use.
Q. Do iPhone 17 cases cover the camera control button? Will this affect sensitivity?
A.
No, all series undergo rigorous testing to ensure no impact on sensitivity.
If you need to adjust sensitivity, navigate to:Settings → Camera → Camera Control → Accessibility → Light-Press Force.

A.
Every day marks, like sweat or fingerprints, can be easily cleaned with a wet wipe or alcohol wipe without damaging the case.

Q. Will using this iPhone 17 case affect wireless charging?
A.
No. Our cases are carefully designed and tested to be compatible with mainstream wireless chargers. You can charge your phone without removing the case.
Q. Does the iPhone 17 case show fingerprints?
A.
To provide a skin-friendly feel, the case surface is coated. Fingerprints may occasionally appear due to hand sweat or lotion, but they can be easily wiped away with a wet wipe, alcohol pad, or even an eraser. Use with confidence.
