Urban Armor Gear are known for their rugged iPhone cases that have a quality feel in the hand, and today, they’re expanding their flagship case, the Monarch Pro, with a new material that’s sure to turn some heads.
Say hello to Monarch Pro with G10 Carbon Fiber, the next step in offering a premium lightweight, yet highly durable material as the backplate for one of the most protective cases money can buy.

According to UAG, the G10 material is hand-made through a process of stacking glass cloth, soaked in epoxy resin, and then compressing it under high heat. The result? This fantastic and nearly indestructible material we call G10.
G10 is a popular material in folding knives and even high-end handgun grips. It’s a tried-and-true material that withstands the elements, including physical abuse and water exposure, and now it can be used to protect your iPhone.
UAG has sculpted the G10 material to fit the corners and center of the rear of its case, providing ideal impact protection, as well as a grippy surface. Just below that is a luxurious top-grain leather inlay. All of this in a lightweight armor frame with full MagSafe compatibility,
UAG’s G10 Monarch Pro case is available for the iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, and even the Samsung S24 Ultra. It doesn’t come cheap, but our experience with UAG’s stuff is that you get the protection you pay for.
