Catalyst Total Protection Case for AirPods Pro 2nd Generation Case - Waterproof, and Shockproof Rugged Full Body Case for AirPods Pro 1 and AirPods Pro 2, Secure Locking System Case with Carabiner

This case is perfect for Gen1 and Gen2 AirPod Pros. I finally purchased mine after having on my Amazon list for two years, and I regret not buying it sooner. I’ve tried three other cases from various companies that were slightly more affordable, and they were “okay,” I suppose. But none checked all the boxes like this one does.Durability, versatility, longevity, accessibility, water-proof, cost, and amount of pocket space occupied are the main criteria that drove my searches.Although it’s twice as expensive as many of the other options you see listed out there, the benefits it provides are worth every single penny. More time and money was wasted trying to get by with cheaper (and highly inferior) products rather than investing in this one from the start. Plus, I finally feel confident that my $250 AirPods, which I use daily, are now fully protected. Peace of mind goes a long way.This Catalyst case fits AirPod Pros like an absolute glove. Not an OJ Simpson glove, mind you. They‘re nestled perfectly in this thing thanks to a silicone pouch within the hard casing, which not only acts to secure the Apple case from easily sliding out, but also protects against impacts and won’t scratch it up. No glue or adhesives required! The Apple case won’t fall out, even if turned upside down and jostled with the Catalyst case open. But it’s not so tight that it’s difficult to take out the Apple case at any point in (literally) three seconds. You can slide it right back into the Catalyst case in a fraction that time.The latching mechanism is great. Easy to open and even easier to close, which is exactly how it should be.I love that you can still see the front charge light, have access to the back reset button, can charge the AirPods wirelessly, or easily pull back the bottom gasket and plug in the charge cord directly; all without sacrificing the durability and protection the Catalyst case offers.My only concern is the carabiner/lanyard attachment point. It’s a natural stress point, so I’d prefer if it were made out of something more durable than polycarbonate. I don’t yet know if it will break easily. And, although I don’t intend to rely on it at all, I’d still feel more comfortable if made from a material with higher tensile strength. However, I can’t deduct marks over it at this moment because time will tell.Even with that one slight concern, this is overwhelmingly the best case I’ve ever seen. By far.The provided photos include items also carried commonly in pockets for size reference. And because they all match.Excelsior!**Update 11/27/23: This case is still going strong. The only issue I’ve had with it was with the carabiner I was originally concerned about. It didn’t break, so I’m not removing a star for it; I just had a hard time trusting it and ended up swapping it out with a $3 aluminum carabiner instead.

Looks good, it’s sturdy, the lock does its job perfectly and doesn’t open on its own

There is simply no competition to this product. It is the single most practical, toughest, and easily highest quality case that exists for storing your Airpods Pro. The build quality is top notch, and the tolerances all around are extremely tight. The seals fit perfectly, there is no play in the hinge whatsoever, and the factory Airpods case slips right in and is held in place very firmly. No functionality is lost, you can charge through the case by opening the small silicone plug at the bottom, there is a rubber passthrough button to access the button on the Apple case, and a small waterproof window with which you can see the LED through. You can still pair the headphones with no problems in the case and save for a minor complaint it is a near perfect case.The single flaw with the design was to include a non-locking carabiner. Considering the cost of the case and the product it holds, it just seems irresponsible to me to clip that to anything that might be bouncing around without having a lock on it. Maybe it is rare for those gates to open, but I lost a hat clipped to a backpack with a non-locking carabiner once so I might be paranoid. Either way, the fix was simple, I just put a flat split ring on it and a #3 Nite-Ize slide lock, though I think a #2 might work as well (see attached photo).Minor complaint aside, this is the best product money can buy and I recommend it to everyone who is interested in an Airpods case. You didn't spare any expense on your headphones, so don't cheap out on protecting them.

So glad I decided to spend the extra money on this case. It was worth it. Zero buyers remorse. This is a legit quality product, not some flashy over priced junk like most Amazon garbage.

Performs EXACTLY as expected. Best to use with MagSafe charger (phone only; will not work with Apple watch charger). Easy to use and SOLID!

Very rugged

Color and durability is great. Latch can be difficult sometimes, but I would still recommend this product.

So I just got this a couple days ango, arrived in 2 days in one piece.I don’t plan on using lanyard hole because the supplied Carabiner doesn’t really fit. The diameter of the Carabiner is too thick to slide through the rubber-ish hole it should go through, It would require me jamming it in there , jamming is never a good idea… unless…-Does it ruin it for me ? No. If I really wanted I could spend a few bucks for a thinner one I just don’t want to carry it on my key ring.-As you can see from the pics I am able to easily plug in the supplied AirPods Cord with ease through the access hole on the bottom side of case.-Haven’t dropped it in water… yet, or ran it through washer …. Yet, (RIP old AirPods) lol, and hope I don’t buddy!!- The company boasts a ”up to 300 foot deep “water protection thingy . If I ever lose this at sea, I’m not sure $199 is a price for me to risk going down 300 feet to get these so you should be good to go !Question, would I recommend this ? Absolutely . It is a bit clunky but I believe everything gets a little clunky ( meaning bigger ) when you add a case for protection.I trust it way more than just keeping it in my pocketI own AirPod pro 2 and it fits perfectly.“Treat yo self “It’s a great case .
