Nimbus9 · Stratus 2
Stratus 2.
Elegance meets durability
A translucent, soft-touch MagSafe case rated to a 20-foot drop — with a stand built into the back, so the phone props itself up and you carry nothing extra.

Closer look
The case, on its own terms.
The case, part by part
Everything you touch, on purpose.
Three parts do the work — a stand that folds away, ridges under your fingers, and a magnet ring that lines itself up.
The stand
Part of the case.
The kickstand lives in the case. Pop it out with a thumb and the phone props itself up — a video call, a recipe on the counter, something to watch while your hands are busy. Done, it folds flat and the case is just a case again.
The ridges
RIDGEGRIP™, where your fingers already are.
Ergonomic ridges run the case so your hold is a grip rather than a balance. It is the difference between catching the phone and watching it go.
The ring
Magnets that find their own center.
Chargers and accessories attach and align themselves — no hunting for the sweet spot, no half-seated charge overnight.
Out of the box
What arrives.
Hands lift the retail box and the case shows through the die-cut window on the front, stand and all.
Drive Safe MagSafe
On the mount, not in your lap.
The case carries the Drive Safe MagSafe mounting system, so a vent or dash mount takes the phone and holds it where you can see it — and lets go when you want it back.
Shop car mounts
The shell
Feels as good as it looks.
A frosted, translucent shell that lets the phone show through, finished in a soft-touch texture — the reason a case this protective still feels like something you want to pick up.
Twenty feet
Rated for the drop you never see coming.
Stratus 2 is drop-tested to 20 feet and surpasses military standard — serious protection, carried by a case built to be looked at.

REAL SENSE™ buttons
Press, and know you pressed.
Tactile REAL SENSE™ button caps carry the click through the shell — volume and power answer your thumb instead of sinking under it.
Three finishes, live on the rail
Clear, Confetti and Frost, as listed on this store today. The line is also produced in Smoke, Blue Camouflage, Amethyst and more — finishes vary by phone model.
