What do you think of this otterbox?

it caught my eye when i was scrolling the cases. love the blue (my fav color) and surprisingly the pink and red-ish cases. love otterbox in general and i’m hoping they’ll release this case as a pop socket option.

Hi Dukat! I have both the Mous Limitless 4 and the Pitaka New MagEZ Case Pro for the 13 Pro Max and I featured both cases in a review I published a few days ago. They are both really nice cases--I think the Mous Aramid Fibre Limitless 4.0 is a tougher case and is going to provide better overall protection, but the Pitaka New MagEZ Case Pro is an absolute pleasure to have on your phone. Love, love, love it!

Kristin

Your reviews are excellent, thanks!

I had the Pitaka MagEz Pro 2 on my IPhone 12 Max Pro and I liked it a lot, but not as much as the dBrand Grip with the Black Swarm Skin. Looks like this year the Pitaka MagEz Pro looks better then ever so I’m waiting patiently for Pitaka to release it. I did see your review on the Pitaka MagEz Pro and enjoyed it very much (been a subscriber for many years) So now I definitely want it. Keep up the great reviews.

P.S.
I also backed the Pitaka MagEz Slider on Kickstarter.
Thanks, Donny! Yeah, I really, really like the Pitaka New MagEZ Case Pro. Great case. Their other cases, like the Air, have always seemed lovely, but have been too minimal for me to feel comfortable using. The New MagEZ Case Pro is just big enough to feel securely protective. And it is super slim...which is really helpful on such a big phone as the 13 Pro Max.

Looking for options.
smartish slim case or the new hybrid totallee case.
I will carry a Mous 4.0 case to work but I am looking for something slim and stylish for personal life. I do like the look of totallee hybrid better but the smartish is cheaper.
many opinions?

Went on a 5 days trip, the phone was always in my hand and on some tables. The edges and front edges were definitely dirty (darker) (didn’t take a picture unfortunately). I cleaned the case with a wet tissue and the dirt came off.

I was planning to exchange it for Dark Cherry if the dirt didn’t come off but it looks ok to me and I’m happy with it. I can’t wait to see how it ages!

Sorry the lighting conditions are not quite the same in both pictures.

Looks to me like it's on the right track!

Looks good. It looks uniformly darker everywhere in places where I don’t normally grip it. Did you treat it with any oil?

Vastly improved over last year's for sure. I had the black leather on my 12 Pro and while it looked amazing, it just didn't quite feel or smell like quality leather. My midnight case on my 13 Pro is soft and doesn't have that sticky feeling and it smells like actual leather.
I have to chime in here and agree with everything you just said. lol. Also had the black leather for my 12 Pro and i too got the midnight for my (blue) 13 Pro and i have no complaints.

Anyone know of any good Magsafe phone holders for car. My iPhone is not going to be here until November, 😭. It's my first iPhone and my current phone has a magnet on it to use with a magnet phone holder. Don't really want to put a ugly magnet sticker on it.
