Have over 20 different cases and always find myself back in the el cheapo Ringke Onyx case. Besides not having MagSafe this is one of the best cases you will find and it's only $11.00 ;)

I just got the official leather Apple iPhone 13 pro max case. The gold band of my iPhone (I have the gold colour iPhone) is visible whilst the case is on. Is this right? I was using the Caudabe case before, and you couldn't see the gold band around the phone with the case on...

Normal and a good thing about the Apple cases - You can actually see what colour phone you have

Ended up returning the Monarch magsafe, with the pro max it's just too thick and the lip is too high.
Other that I really liked it and the look.
Maybe on a standard 13/pro would be better.

Back to the apple midnight leather it feels like a 13 now lol

Thinking of trying a leather- but do you notice the MagSafe ring on the back?

How long did you use the Monarch for? For me it takes about a week+ to get used to it. At first it feels so blocky lol but it's very protected.

I got the SQMCase with a ring on the back. Love this case, helps with using it one handed.

My go-to is always Loopy. I am particularly fond of the new clear ones so I can see my pink mini through it, and I love how the design changes color with the lighting.

yeah a week ago today, do you have a max?
Yup! It does make it “big” but the edges (from the screen bezel to the edge of the case) is quite minimal compared to most GOOD protective cases. I can’t do cases that make the phone it too wide!

I havn't returned it yet, might keep it for my weekender as am keeping my 13 max for another year.
Was mainly the height of the lip, not the width, guess it gives more protection that way.

How do you know it has the new buttons? Is it from their site directly?
Yes, Tee made a video about the new buttons. I emailed Phone Rebel before ordering to make sure it would come with the new buttons, and they said all cases shipping now have them.

Got a Spigen Ultra Hybrid to go along with my Spigen Air Skin.

Also, i got it because as much as i like the Caseology Skyfall, i don’t like the Skyfall’s camera cutout. Thankfully the Ultra Hybrid is almost similar to the Skyfall. (Makes sense since Caseology is a subsidiary of Spigen.)
