Not saggy. A bit thin at the bottom port but that’s it. Honestly tightest fit everywhere else. Similar to Apple silicone. For Spigen and others the problem is people want a big cutout for charging. Hence the loose part. This is why I hope Apple goes straight Magsafe. Then tight all around.

Actually the more I look at the charge opening it’s ridiculous. Still best case but people really need all that space???

If you’ve purchased a 3rd party case, odds aren’t bad you’ve got a 3rd party charging cable as well, and they tend to have larger lightning sockets than Apples.

I get extra space. But some, including thin fit, are ridiculous. Still love it.

A thin case that’ll never leave my rotation, the Power Support Air Jacket. One of the OGs of iPhone cases. I swap cases almost on a weekly basis and so far the hard plastic isn’t scratching my phone yet. Grippy plastic feels fantastic and your hands would have to be absolutely filthy to leave any visible marks on the case.

Seems like I remember reading that those cases are extremely hard to take off the phone. As you’d know from what you said, do you find that to be the case (no pun intended, haha)?

The first time putting on the case might be a nerve-wracking affair if you're afraid of scratching the phone lol. Once you get past that, popping it on or off takes seconds...to remove it, push through the camera gap and work it off the phone, easy.

Hey guys, after reading many posts in here I caved and bought the Spigen Thin Fit in blue. Seems very very good, I love how clicky the buttons are, the back that doesn't gather fingerprints, overall very happy!

Serious Q: do any of us even know what we’re looking for in a case or are we just collecting them all like a bad game or Pokémon. Lol?
I’m looking for good-sized lips on the front and back, lightweight, grippy, and value for money cases.
