Has anyone bought the Otterbox Core Series?


Wow, that actually caught my attention - ordered. Due to arrive Wednesday, will post a pic when it’s here

From the article. That really looks sweet, it’ll be a great match with Sierra Blue

It looks like the Lifeproof See camera cone deal.
No.
I have a Lifeproof See case for the 13 Pro.
The camera ring is equal height, width, and thickness all the way around.

That "Core Series" camera ring looks like it has a fat upper lip!

The Totallee soft clear case seems like a good one. What made you want to order the others? As I stated above, I have the Power Support Air Jacket Clear, but wouldn’t mind something thinner, so may get the Peel Clear hard case.
Doesn’t the Air Jacket collect a lot of dust visible especially the side top? That’s one major factor that had me stop using it.

I got both white and black (one for partner for V-Day). Will post pics when I get it and return them if it's too gnarly LOL

Think it may be the angle of how the photo’s taken. Still, that pattern reminds me of when I vomited on the school bus all those years ago.

Been there done that, in middle school I think it was.

I only have a handful of cases for my 13PM so far and right now I’m rocking the Sonix Prickly Pear cactus case and actually really digging it on the Sierra Blue. When I’m home, I like to pop off the case and enjoy the phone in its natural beauty.

I got a replacement Pitaka Mag pro case and sadly it’s still has figment issues! Such a shame as it could be the perfect case. Also I’m sure the aramid fibre is just TpU as it’s feels the same. Magnets are crazy strong mind.

Just got my Lifeproof Fre with MagSafe earlier. Will install it in a bit and give it a run for awhile. Couple of my friends recently got one and said it’s a lot better than the last few Fre releases.

I just ordered the Casetify Bounce case in triple black. I really wish Technically Tee could make a video reviewing it, but I understand he is busy. I got the Casetify Ultra Impact (actually I got 2 of them) because of his reviews and drop test and I love them!

LifeProof Fre with MagSafe for iPhone 13 Pro impressions:

- screen protector has been vastly improved since the last Fre case I used (iPhone XS) zero rainbowing and it lays perfectly flat. Doesn’t even feel like there is a screen protector on it, screen responsiveness is perfect. Note: they’ve added a dot-matrix pattern on the screen protector itself. You can see these superfine dots under certain lighting conditions. This doesn’t bother me.

- audio has also been greatly improved. Made a bunch of test calls and everyone said I sound normal. Not muffled (a previous Fre issue). I tried speakerphone as well, no issues or echoing.

- buttons are stiff, but still responsive.

- mute toggle switch dial feature is great.

- the case adds about the same amount of bulk as the Otterbkx Defender XT.

Nice, and no oil slicks?
Can do a couple of pictures? Thanks.
