UAG Plasma XTE Design

The Plasma XTE combines a rugged protective structure with a translucent or semi-transparent armour-shell appearance.

Its layered construction is designed to provide protection without relying on an excessively heavy or bulky enclosure.

The case may include:

• Rigid or semi-rigid composite rear shell
• Flexible impact-resistant perimeter
• Reinforced corners
• Integrated magnetic module
• Metal kickstand
• Raised display surround
• Raised camera surround
• Tactile button covers
• Precision port openings

The exact appearance may vary between the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max versions.

20-Foot Drop Protection

UAG states that the Plasma XTE is independently tested to withstand drops of up to 20 ft / 6.1 m and passes MIL-SPEC 810G-516.6 drop-test standards.

This level of protection is supported by design features including:

• Reinforced corners
• Shock-absorbing bumpers
• Composite shell construction
• Raised display edges
• Raised camera protection
• Impact-dispersing materials
• Secure device fitment

Drop testing is performed under controlled conditions.

A 20-foot drop rating does not mean that the case or phone is indestructible.

Actual protection depends on:

• Drop height
• Impact angle
• Surface type
• Repeated impacts
• Phone condition
• Case condition
• Whether the phone strikes a sharp or protruding object
• Whether the case is installed correctly
• Existing display, housing, or camera damage

No phone case can guarantee protection against every impact.

MIL-SPEC 810G-516.6 Notice

The case passes applicable MIL-SPEC 810G-516.6 drop-test standards according to UAG.

Military drop-test terminology describes testing procedures and should not be interpreted as meaning that:

• The case was issued by the military
• The phone is military equipment
• The case protects against every type of damage
• The phone is waterproof
• The device cannot crack or bend
• Damage is guaranteed to be prevented

Drop-test results apply to controlled test conditions and do not guarantee identical results in every real-world incident.

Reinforced TPU Bumpers

The Plasma XTE uses reinforced TPU bumper areas designed to absorb and disperse energy during drops and impacts.

The flexible bumper structure may help protect:

• Phone corners
• Side rails
• Display perimeter
• Camera area
• Buttons
• Lower USB-C area

TPU flexibility also helps with installation and removal.

The material may still wear, stretch, scratch, tear, or discolour with age and use.

Air-Soft Corner Protection

The case includes advanced air-soft corner construction designed to provide additional cushioning at common impact points.

Phone corners are especially vulnerable during drops because a corner impact can transfer force into:

• Display glass
• Rear glass
• Phone frame
• Camera housing
• Internal components

Air-soft corners help absorb and distribute some impact energy before it reaches the phone.

They do not eliminate the possibility of:

• Cracked glass
• Bent frames
• Internal damage
• Camera damage
• Cosmetic dents
• Display failure

Featherlight Composite Construction

UAG describes the Plasma XTE as using a featherlight composite construction.

This design aims to balance:

• Rugged protection
• Everyday portability
• Comfortable handling
• Reduced bulk
• Structural strength
• Compatibility with wireless charging

“Featherlight” is a relative design description and does not mean that the case adds no weight or thickness.

The integrated metal kickstand and magnetic module add additional structure compared with a basic thin case.

Integrated Metal Kickstand

The Plasma XTE includes a built-in metal kickstand for hands-free viewing.

The kickstand supports:

• Portrait orientation
• Landscape orientation
• Video streaming
• Video calls
• Virtual meetings
• Social-media viewing
• Recipe viewing
• Photography
• Group photos
• Navigation while parked
• Desk and bedside use

The available viewing angle may depend on:

• Phone model
• Surface type
• Orientation
• Case position
• Kickstand condition
• Device weight
• External accessories

Place the phone on a stable, level surface before using the kickstand.

Portrait Stand Mode

Portrait orientation may be useful for:

• FaceTime and video calls
• Social-media content
• Reading messages
• Following recipes
• Viewing short-form video
• Taking hands-free photographs
• Using the phone as a desk display

Stability may vary according to the surface and viewing angle.

Do not place the phone near the edge of a table or on an unstable surface.

Landscape Stand Mode

Landscape orientation may be useful for:

• Movies
• Television programs
• Video streaming
• Presentations
• Gaming with a controller
• Virtual meetings
• Photo slideshows
• Widescreen video calls

Confirm that the kickstand is fully opened and stable before releasing the phone.

Kickstand Care and Limitations

The kickstand is intended for normal hands-free viewing.

Avoid:

• Forcing the stand beyond its intended range
• Twisting the kickstand sideways
• Using the kickstand as a carrying handle
• Applying heavy downward pressure
• Sitting or leaning on the open stand
• Using it on unstable surfaces
• Closing the stand with debris in the hinge
• Repeatedly snapping it open with excessive force

Kickstand damage caused by excessive force, bending, impact, or misuse may not be considered a manufacturing defect.

The kickstand may also affect how the phone rests flat on a surface.

MagSafe-Compatible Magnetic Module

The Plasma XTE includes a built-in magnetic module designed for compatible MagSafe chargers and magnetic accessories.

It may support compatible:

• MagSafe wireless chargers
• Magnetic charging stands
• Magnetic wallets
• Magnetic car mounts
• Magnetic desk mounts
• Magnetic battery packs
• Magnetic grips
• Other MagSafe-compatible accessories

Magnetic strength and compatibility may vary between accessories.

A built-in magnet improves alignment but does not guarantee compatibility with every third-party magnetic product.

MagSafe Charging Notice

For best wireless charging performance:

1. Use a compatible MagSafe or Qi wireless charger.
2. Centre the phone correctly on the charger.
3. Remove metal plates or incompatible accessories.
4. Confirm that the charger provides sufficient output.
5. Keep the case and charger clean.
6. Avoid placing cards or metallic objects between the phone and charger.

Wireless charging speed may depend on:

• Charger model
• Power adapter
• Device temperature
• Battery percentage
• iOS
• Accessory alignment
• Charging environment
• Phone activity
• Case condition

The case does not increase the iPhone’s maximum supported charging speed.

Magnetic Accessory Notice

Some magnetic accessories may have weaker holding strength because of:

• Accessory design
• Accessory weight
• Magnet arrangement
• Vehicle vibration
• Uneven mounting surfaces
• Misalignment
• Added cards or inserts
• Worn accessory surfaces

Test the complete setup before relying on a mount in a vehicle or elevated location.

3C-Easy Markham and UAG cannot guarantee the holding performance of every third-party magnetic accessory.

Apple Pay and NFC Notice

UAG identifies the case as compatible with Apple Pay.

The case is designed not to unnecessarily interfere with normal supported NFC functions.

Apple Pay or NFC problems may also be caused by:

• Device settings
• Bank or card restrictions
• iOS
• Hardware failure
• Incorrect terminal positioning
• Metal accessories
• Magnetic wallets
• Thick cards placed behind the phone

The case does not add Apple Pay or NFC capability to a device.

Raised Screen Surround

The case includes a raised perimeter around the front display.

This raised surround helps reduce direct screen contact when the phone is placed face-down on a flat and clean surface.

It may also provide additional protection during certain drops.

The raised edge cannot prevent all screen damage, especially when:

• The phone lands on an uneven surface
• A sharp object contacts the display
• The display already has damage
• The impact is severe
• The phone frame bends
• No screen protector is installed

A compatible screen protector is recommended for additional surface protection.

Screen Protector Compatibility

The Plasma XTE is compatible with many case-friendly screen protectors.

Compatibility with every protector cannot be guaranteed.

A protector may interfere if it:

• Extends too close to the outer display edge
• Is misaligned
• Is excessively thick
• Uses a raised frame
• Has lifting edges
• Is designed for full-body coverage

Case interference may cause:

• Edge lifting
• Bubbles
• Protector cracking
• Reduced adhesion
• Touch discomfort

Install the screen protector first, then fit the case and confirm adequate clearance.

Raised Camera Protection

The case includes elevated protection around the rear-camera area.

This helps reduce direct contact between the camera lenses and flat surfaces.

Camera protection remains limited when:

• The surface is uneven
• A raised object contacts the lens
• The phone lands directly on the camera area
• The camera glass is already cracked
• The case is worn or damaged

A separate camera-lens protector may provide additional surface protection, but compatibility should be confirmed.

Camera-Lens Protector Compatibility

A camera-lens protector may interfere with the case if it is:

• Too thick
• Too wide
• Misaligned
• Designed with a large surrounding frame
• Installed over damaged camera glass

Interference may cause:

• Case lifting
• Pressure on the camera protector
• Cracking
• Poor fitment
• Dust buildup

Test the case and camera protector together before relying on the combination.

Oversized Tactile Buttons

The case includes oversized tactile button covers designed to provide responsive feedback.

They help preserve access to:

• Side button
• Volume controls
• Action button
• Camera Control area where applicable

Button response may vary if:

• The case is not fully seated
• Dust or debris is trapped inside
• The phone frame is bent
• The button is already damaged
• The case has experienced heavy impact
• A production variation changes button stiffness

Confirm all button functions after installation.

Camera Control Compatibility

The iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max include Camera Control on the side of the device.

The case is designed to preserve access to the corresponding control area.

Depending on the case design, access may be provided through:

• A precision opening
• A dedicated control surface
• A recessed area

After installation, test:

• Press input
• Light-press input where supported
• Swipe or slide gestures
• Camera launching
• Zoom or control adjustment
• Comfortable finger access

Performance may vary according to iOS settings and case alignment.

Precision Port and Speaker Openings

The case includes openings designed around:

• USB-C charging port
• Speakers
• Microphones
• Camera system
• Buttons
• Camera Control
• Other device-specific openings

Some oversized USB-C plugs or adapters may not fit through the case opening.

If an accessory does not connect fully:

1. Do not force it.
2. Remove the case.
3. Test the accessory directly with the phone.
4. Use a connector with a slimmer housing if required.

Lanyard-Card Compatibility

UAG identifies the Plasma XTE as compatible with lanyard cards.

A compatible lanyard card may be placed inside the case to provide an attachment point for:

• Wrist straps
• Neck straps
• Crossbody straps
• Security tethers

The lanyard and lanyard card are not included unless expressly stated.

A lanyard attachment does not guarantee that the phone cannot be dropped, lost, or stolen.

Inspect the card, strap, and case regularly for wear.

1. Confirm the exact iPhone model.
2. Remove any incompatible case or accessory.
3. Clean and dry the phone.
