Felt like a lighter case as it’s summer down here and I have to say that having now seen it in person, the Wisteria leather actually looks really rich and nice, and with Sierra Blue it’s a very whimsical combination. This definitely feels more like a summer colour. You can even use a naked Sierra Blue phone with the Wisteria wallet and it still looks great. Am hoping the Wisteria Case doesn’t age badly, if it does by the end of the returns period (8 Jan 2022) I’m returning it but for now it is ?
Got a tip for us?

Hey all, getting mixed answers from reading and asking around the internet, thinking one of you guys would know for definite.
Do 3rd party “MagSafe compatible” cases charge at the full 15W with the Apple MagSafe charger?
Or do only the Apple cases allow for the full speed charging, and every other case will only charge at 7.5W?

Dang it, that looks good. I may have to pick this case up now.
Just bought a Tech 21 Evo Check for the 13PM.
Not bad , but a little disappointed by the lack of raised edges. Not worth 40$. But Best Buy had them on sale for $20. And that's why I bought it. 🤣

It’s this really lovely rich dark lavender colour - would definitely recommend - if you get it from Apple there’s the extended returns period until January next year if you change your mind
I've been eyeing this case since the 12 Pro Max. How does it compare to the Spigen Thin Fit? Every picture I see of it makes it look really thick.

Thin fit is still my favorite. The tech 21 is completely different material and dimensions. The back is shiny but not too slippery the sides are frosted. The port cut outs are also not as comfortable to the pinky finger but not the worst I’ve encountered by other brands. It ain’t worth $40 that’s for sure. $20 or below is about right, maybe $15? 😂

Just received my Apple Silicone case in Product Red. It’s like retina melting red. So vivid. I actually like it. Might use it for December, kinda like it on my graphite 13 Pro.
I’m not sure if someone answer your question, but MagSafe is Apple proprietary. The majority of wireless chargers are based on Qi and are limited to 7.5w for iPhones.
Alternatives to Apple are from Belkin. Belkin; 15w MagSafe products. Hopefully more companies will license MagSafe but at least there are Belkin options to choose from.
This is THE case. Thin and insanely strong MagSafe and cheap. It’s perfect.

Circling back to the Laut cases. I just received my Laut Crystal Matter 2.0 with MagSafe (Black) case for my iPhone 13 Pro. Last year, I tried the Crystal Matter 2.0 case, twice, on my iPhone 12 Pro. Materials were great, buttons were made of machined aluminum, but they jiggled if you'd move the phone around. I was very nervous it would be the same story for the iPhone 13 cycle. I can say that the jiggly buttons are resolved. This case is nice. A top 5 contender.

CRYSTAL MATTER 2.0 for iPhone 13 is the ultimate protective and yet minimal case. Designed with one mission in mind - CRYSTAL MATTER 2.0 was built to protect. By utilizing our proprietary shock proof IMPKT Cell Technology?, CRYSTAL MATTER 2.0 is able to deliver A-grade drop protection all while...
Sorry. Shoulda included that. Looks like they have some sort of Black Friday sale going on too.
I will say if you already have the Smartish Gripzilla, this case is extremely similar. Main difference is the back. Which is a semi transparent material vs a solid color on the Gripzilla, unless you get the totally clear variant.

Totallee has a great sale on Amazon right now (https://9to5toys.com/2021/11/26/totallee-iphone-13-case-black-friday/) so I picked up the clear case for $20. I don't think it'll work very well with my MagSafe Wallet but I always like to have a thin clear case on hand to rotate every once in a while.
Be careful with the bottom of that case. It's really flimsy and can collect a lot of junk that will scratch up the phone.
That’s the first thing I checked. It’s as a stiff as a … never mind 🤣 only the small section above the charge port is lose a bit.
Can anyone recommend a case similar to the Casetify Impact (w/ MagSafe) but without the long and sketchy shipping process?
I have one on the way but at this point I’m thinking it would be faster to cancel my order and get something else. I just can’t find anything that offers similar styling and protection.

The Laut Crystal Matter 2.0 is a bit bulkier than the Caudabe Sheath, just an FYI. Drop protection is way better tho.
