Recently bought this slim case and it looks sleek. However, still looking for a thin case with MagSafe

Literally looking for the same thing. I’ve been on a thin case kick or awhile and I guess I’m going to have to wait until that Pitaka Pro case drops. It doesn’t look as thick this year and has a redesign.

They need to check their definition of "investment". Investment, an iPhone is not.

Also, the Pro Max starts at $1,099, not $1,000. S***show, that source.

I went with Apple's Leather cases for my 13 Pro Max, I got both the black and sequoia green leather cases, hoping the fitment would be better than last year with the leather cases on 12 Pro Max.

Unfortunately, this did not change with the 13 Pro Max.

The phone slips ever so slightly in the corners in the case, so I have to push the phone back in again in the corners throughout the day.
That’s odd. While I believe you, my experience is different. I have the Midnight and Golden Brown for my 13 Max, and tried a few of each of them before settling on the ones with the grain I liked, and none of them are loose in the corners or even slightly slip off. There must be a variance in production.

Well I’m giving the silicone case a go. We will see how long it lasts. It does feel good and looks good.

Definitely looks great. Always end up returning them within a week. Silicone cases just feel weird to me. Don’t know why but I don’t like the sensation. I like the look, feel and grip of a conditioned Apple leather best

I can def get what you’re saying with it feeling weird and I’m sure it won’t stay up here long term, just until those Sheaths get here tomorrow lol.

So as I posted earlier, I went with the totallee soft clear case mainly due to how they taught it as one of the thinnest cases. The site states its MagSafe compatible, but let me tell you it’s complete BS. Tested it today with wallet and battery. they barely stayed on. I also compared it to apples clear case. Virtually the same size, and apples build quality and feel is so much nicer. In the end, I bought Apples case. With my company discount its almost the same price. Live and learn. Think I’m going to contact their CS and see if I can get a refund.

I also have the totallee soft clear case and it's thin but not thin compared to other clear cases. I agree that the Magsafe wallet and battery doesn't have a strong enough grip with the thickness of the clear case and it's sorta slippery to hold both on the back and sides of the case.

I ended up ordering Peel (Hard) clear case that I just received today. It's probably one of the thinnest clear cases on the market right now and it's a glove fit on the 13 Pro. I tried the magsafe wallet and it has better grip and connection on the back but can move with alittle bit more force. (See link for video review)

If you really want a magsafe compatible thin clear case, you're gonna have to have some sort of "thickness" for the clear case since the case needs the space to embed the magnets. I have the Benks MagSafe Clear case (TPU sides and hard plastic on back) on order and waiting for it to deliver to see how "thick" the clear case is but I really just want it for the minimalist case and the magsafe compatibility.

I wish it didn’t bother me because they look great and fit great. I like the Apple logo too. It can be a hassle chasing the perfect leather grain etc, whereas with silicone pick your color and call it a day.

So how are we feeling about the Mous Limitless 4.0 this year? View attachment 1863512
Nice pic! I think it's great. I've got the Aramid Fibre version on both my 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max at the moment 😀. Published my 13 Pro Max review a bit ago...13 Pro review yet to come. Not as soft in the hand as the Pitaka MagEZ Case Pro, or as slim, but probably a lot more durable and protective in a fall.

I have the Power Support Air Jacket Clear, but want something thinner. I ordered the Peel hard clear case, which arrives tomorrow. Please share additional feedback on the case. How is the grip?

BTW, the video review you posted is a great.
