Yep. & it really shouldn’t be encouraged.
Phone price tiers went up years ago because people were happy to pay US$1000 for the iPhone X. We don’t need case prices to jump also.
A case with rattling buttons, I agree 100%. If they feel right on the replacement I’ll consider using it but I’m not sure it’ll be able to keep me away from the Nomad.Or send one to me
IMO, a Spigen case for $150. is a joke.
Went back to my trusty thick boy speck presidio stay clear I got on sale at Best Buy a couple months ago. Slippery as hell but a great protective case.Still rocking the fat boy. It's been a little over a week for me.
Caseology Vault. Buttons are a little bit hard to press. No extra bulk. Sort of grippy material on the back. No premium feel, for sure. Good fit. Worth the price, around $20.
People using the Defender Pro, is your MagSafe puck charging through the case?
I used the MagSafe once or twice but now it does not want to charge through the fat Defender. Regular wireless charger no problem, MagSafe fuggedaboutit

I don't have a MagSafe to either confirm or deny. Sorry man.
Speck Gemshell for iPhone 13 Pro Max, Been looking for one of these. This was one of the cases i thinking of when i was looking at while i was waiting for my Pro Max to arrive last month. Finally found one in stock at a WalMart
A little maybe? Then again i never really had a problem with the buttons with the 8 Plus version of Speck's Gemshell Case. (I have the Gemshell for the 8 Plus as well. so not the first time i had the Gemshell.) YMMV i guess?

Yes. You have to line it up just perfect but yes it definitely works.
My black frosted 13 Pro Phone Rebel case has started creaking and/or squeakin. Very strange……any time I handle it by a corner it shrieks in terror lol.
Anyone else have a creaky Phone Rebel case? I had the Flex on my 12 Pro Max and don’t remember that one being noisy.

Pitaka MagEz Pro for iPhone 13 Pro Max available right now on Amazon. Act fast as these cases are impossible to get!

Nice find, they rarely come up!
Not sure it’s worth $70 though, does anyone have one?
I ordered one as they have been impossible to find. I’ve watched multiple videos really hyping it as such an amazing case. I love Aramid Fiber and also slim cases. The Sheath has been my daily/#1 case. Let’s see if this one beats it for me.
Nice, I’m looking forward to hearing what you think. Looks like it’s about a week for Prime shipping. Definitely the Holy Grail of cases but I just can’t get past any aramid fiber case; not my thing. I just put my Bullstrap back on (might rotate the Andar in too) after taking the creaky Frosted Gen 3 Phone Rebel off.
Yes it’s a great case and the magnet for MagSafe is ridiculously strong which is great for the wallet or any kind of magsafe accessories. The buttons also are very tactile just an all-around great case.
I know he’s trying to sell his own cases but Pitaka is first right out of the gate.
I just received and subsequently returned the Pitaka MagEz Pro for iPhone 13 Pro Max to Amazon. Within a few minutes of casual use the case showed a lot of smudges. Too much for me.
That is one flaw I read. A lot of people love it so much that it isn’t a deal breaker for them and it is easily wiped off as stated
I'm not as patient and even if it's easy, having to wipe the case to remove smudges is a no-go. I'm a bit OCCD.

Exactly what I love about my Sheath. Doesn’t show smudges hardly ever
I swore off the lucid clear plus not a fan of clear cases anyway because they are fingerprint magnets anyway be careful with the lucid clear when popping it on and off. The tiny pieces of plastic around the volume buttons and power buttons crack so easily it’s ridiculous.
What’s wrong with the Sheath by the way?
