Update 6/10: The sweet new Arc Pulse AirPods case is now shipping.
Arc has been among the more popular options around here for folks looking for its special brand of stylish, unique, and ultra minimalist iPhone bumper case solutions, but today it is stepping outside the smartphone space for the first time with its all-new Arc Pulse for AirPods Pro 2 (it also works with AirPods Pro 1). Pre-orders are now live and you can get more details below.
New Arc Pulse for AirPods Pro 2 goes live today
The Arc Pulse for iPhone (and now Google Pixel 9 and Samsung’s S25 Ultra) is essentially a minimalist, 2-piece aerospace-grade metal bumper case. Using friction to snap on to either end of your handset to provide corner and camera array protection, it allows your glorious new smartphones design to shine through almost completely while still providing much needed protection where it tends to count most. It also comes in a number of different fashion forward finishes.
Until now this was not only the heart of the operation over at Arc, but really the only product it offered. Starting today, however, the brand is bringing this vibe over to your AirPods with the new Arc Pulse for AirPods Pro 2 case. The brand says it is designed “with the same inspiration as the Arc Pulse phone case, this sleek, durable case offers a fashionable way to protect your earbuds without sacrificing style.”
The new AirPods Pro 2 Arc Pulse features its “signature minimalist aesthetic” to wrap your Apple buds case in an equally as stylish lightweight aluminum shell that is built to withstand drops and daily wear while “maintaining a slim, elegant profile.”
The expected flip-open design gives you “quick, stylish access” to your earbuds that, according to Arc, pop-ups open with a ping reminiscent of that iconic Zippo lighter experience – I really like the sounds of this (full review inbound shortly).
The new Arc Pulse for AirPods Pro 1/2 is now available for pre-order in three different colorways:
