Pitaka Ultra Slim Forest Green for iPhone 16 Pro.

Absolutely loving this case except for one problem...


Fits loose! The corners at the bottom of the case are very loose and come off the phone without any pressure.


However I came up with a solution, I stuffed a folded up $1 bill in the back of the case which makes it fit tighter. The corners are much more secure now.


4.5/5 Stars since the case only fits well when there's a dollar stuffed in the back.


Beautiful color, material, texture, thinness, cutouts, and magsafe are all awesome on this case. Just wish it fit tighter! Maybe it was just my unit?
That’s definitely defective. I had six thin Pitakas this year and they all fit tight. The only issue was one where the camera surround came loose after a day. That one was replaced with no questions asked.

Is the Benks ArmorPro Prestige on Amazon yet?

If you order from Benks direct where do they ship from?

Is this the one to order or is there a better one on the horizon?

I have a Montage ArmorPro coming to UK from china. Was waiting for 600D to get the button but as the Montage was available first, I thought 🤷🏻 will be a change but similar enough to my fave.

The Prestige & Aurora have the floating buttons and the aramid coming round the sides where there aren't buttons, so if you like/prefer that look and colours....

I would prefer floating buttons on the 600D/Montage but like the textured (PC shell,TPU coated) sides more than the aramid of the Prestige and Aurora.
They all have superb sturdy sides that don't pull out easy.

I do wish they'd do the ArmorPro in GoldenTide as I really like the colours & pattern.

It’s mind blowing to me that they couldn’t include MagSafe. I have cheaper cases that have MagSafe inside the backplate, not even as sticker.
I think that’s what they’re going for, offering an option for a normal clear minimalistic case. I hate the MagSafe ring on clear cases so these cases appeal to me. You sacrifice magnets but it’s aesthetically attractive to some.
 
Grabbed a lake green apple silicone case today. My first apple case as I’ve always balked at the price. But it just seems to be the best available this year.

That’s reassuring! Support is shipping out a replacement. I’m excited to see how much better it fits. Really love the case.
