Hello, my dad just upgraded to the iPhone 13 from an iPhone 6s. He took advantage of the trade in promotion and gormt $400 assessed for his phone.

As for his new iPhone 13, its going to be a few days as they had to back order it-- none in stock at our verizon store. This actually gives us a few days to figure out the best kind of case for him.

His iPhone 13 he will be getting is blue, he works in a steel plant working around steel beams and running heavy machinery(forklifts, overhead cranes, steel saw, etc), so he will assuredly need a rugged case to protect it. What are some good suggestions?

I myself am a current Galaxy S22 user, but i recommended him an iPhone 13 since he is used to the ecosystem and wants a good battery.

Hello and welcome to iMore! I really like Spigen cases. I also think the Otterbox Defender would work great, and you also might want to look at Catalyst cases.

Will defeinitely give em a look. The otterboxes are pricey, but they do offer protection throughout. Thats most likely what ill recommend him to get. ~$60 but it offers both back and rear protection, something he will DEFINITELY need where he works.

I use the one from Spigen cause they shout quality and protection. They have always done a good job protecting my devices!
