What is a Magnetic Phone Case?

By 2026, the number of smartphone users in Australia is expected to reach a staggering 23.6 million. As phones become increasingly advanced, featuring everything from 5G to personal AI assistants, over half of us also say that we now use our mobile devices for much more than simply making calls.

While some are made with even more lightweight materials to make them easier to take on the go, other smartphones feature large folding screens that extend into tablet-sized devices. Whichever type of phone you have, protecting your investment from general wear and tear, as well as those accidental drops and falls, is essential for keeping it in good working order for as long as possible.

That's where a magnetic case can be handy, not only for enhancing the durability of your device, but also making it easy to enjoy the fantastic features your phone has to offer while out and about.

Read on to find out everything you need to know about magnetic phone cases and how they help to keep your iPhone, Samsung, or Google device safe and secure.

Magnetic Phone Cases: What Are They?

Unlike traditional phone cases, which rely on physical clips to attach and detach from surfaces or accessories, magnetic phone cases contain a special form of magnetic technology.

This technology features built-in magnets, which are designed to align perfectly with various magnetic accessories, such as vehicle mounts and wireless charging devices. The magnets are also often compatible with those in your phone, helping to keep the device secure by ensuring the case provides a seamless fit.

For example, many magnetic phone cases for iPhone users are built to work seamlessly with Apple's signature MagSafe technology.

Apple MagSafe devices have magnets positioned around the iPhone's internal charging coil, which allow cases and other MagSafe accessories to simply snap into place and hold your phone securely.

4 Benefits of Magnetic Phone Cases

If you're looking for a blend of convenience, functionality, and protection, magnetic phone cases are a great choice, allowing you to use your phone hands-free while keeping it safe from damage. Here's why you should consider making an investment today:

1. Enhanced On-the-Go Functionality

Whether you're repairing your car in the garage, cooking in the kitchen, or out playing golf, magnetic cases are handy for keeping you entertained on the go.

This is because they can turn any magnetic surface into a mounting point, from fridges to toolboxes and even golf carts, so that you can read instructions, watch your favourite shows, or video call friends from anywhere. Magnetic phone cases are therefore particularly beneficial for those who frequently use their devices hands-free, offering a stable grip and reducing strain on your fingers and wrists.

While they're strong enough to hold your device in place, these magnets won't damage its internal components or interfere with features such as the GPS or reception.

They're also embedded into the case in a way that helps to maintain your phone's aesthetic appeal, with slim, minimalistic designs that don't add any extra bulk to your daily carry.

2. Wireless Charging Compatibility

Fed up of having to deal with tangled charging cables, or worried about wearing down your device's charging port? What's great about magnetic phone cases is that they have wireless charging capabilities.

With a magnetic phone case, the extra-strength magnets they contain ensure that your phone doesn't slip off the charging pad. This ensures proper positioning at all times so that your phone can reach full power as quickly as possible.

3. Support a Range of Accessories

As well as working seamlessly with magnetic mounts and wireless chargers, magnetic cases also make it incredibly easy to use a range of phone accessories.

At Ghostek, our Exec phone case comes with a MagSafe wallet, which attaches easily and securely using built-in magnets. Featuring convenient card holder slots, the wallet offers a great solution for storing your ID, credit, or transportation cards, without needing to carry an additional wallet or heavy purse.

Thanks to the case's magnetic capabilities, the wallet can be switched out for any of our other Exec accessories, including:

• Armband: Strap an armband attachment on using the adjustable velcro band and enjoy peace of mind for your phone through all forms of vigorous aerobic activity, including running and cycling.
• Bike and Car Mounts: Clamping onto either thin or thick handlebars and car fittings, vehicle mounts ensure that you keep your eyes on the road ahead by putting your phone's map app in an easily accessible place. They also rotate 360 degrees for optimal landscape and portrait viewing.

Magnetic phone cases can also help you to save money by reducing the need to purchase multiple types of mounts that securely hold different accessories – simply attach the accessory to your phone case and the powerful magnets will do the rest.

4. Provide Drop Protection

The best magnetic phone cases are not only built for convenience while on the go, but also offer superior protection to support your device's multi-functionality. The powerful magnetic attachment system helps to keep your phone securely in place, therefore lowering the chances of those accidental drops or falls.

The MagSafe wallet component of the Ghostek Exec magnet phone case is also made from a tough metal material, while the rest of the case features a durable blend of hard polycarbonate and flexible TPU.

Along with its multi-layered protective shell, the Exec is military-grade tested to survive drops and falls of up to 12 feet, which is especially useful if you're prone to accidents when out and about. Plus, enjoy raised bumper edges that offer further shockproof protection for the camera lenses, flash, and screen of your phone.
