How we test our phone cases at Roar Sweden

How we test our mobile phone cases at Roar Sweden is a question many customers don't even think about – but testing is crucial for a case to work in everyday life. For us, it's not about laboratory tests for marketing, but about practical tests that reflect how the phone is actually used.

📱 Starting point: real use

Our tests are always based on real-world situations. A phone case should work in your pocket, bag, desk, and hand – not just look good in pictures.

• Daily handling and one-handed use
• Lying on tables, hard surfaces and uneven surfaces
• Use in motion (walking, commuting, training)

🧪 Fit test – no looseness

Fit is one of the most important aspects of testing. A shell that does not fit tightly will quickly lose its protective function.

• The shell should click into place properly.
• The phone must not move inside the case.
• Buttons should feel distinctive
• Ports and speakers must not be blocked.

🛡️ Protection test – focus on corners and edges

Most drops occur at an angle or against a corner, not directly against the back. That's why we test how the case behaves when pressure and impacts stress vulnerable points.

• The shock-absorbing ability of the corners
• Raised edge around screen and camera
• How the material distributes force under load

🖐️ Grip & feel in the hand

A phone case may have perfect protection on paper – but if it’s slippery, it’s being used incorrectly. That’s why grip is a central part of the tests.

• Surface texture in dry and damp hand
• Balance when using one hand
• Feeling during prolonged use

🔄 Test over time – aging materials

Materials change over time, so we look not only at how a case feels new, but also at how it behaves after use.

• Elasticity after time in pocket
• Abrasion from daily contact
• Print durability over time

🧲 Functional test – MagSafe & accessories

For MagSafe-compatible cases, we test magnetic strength and stability along with accessories like phone rings, chargers, and car mounts.

• Stability in grip and tripod position
• Easy to put on and take off
• Compatibility with multiple accessories

✅ Why this matters

A mobile phone case should not only protect your phone – it should function smoothly in everyday life, last over time and feel well thought out. By testing our cases based on real-life use, we can ensure that they meet the requirements we ourselves had set as users.
