I like peated whisky, so it was Ardbeg wee beastie or my ”dailly one” Aerstone Land Cask ?
Finally got around to photographing my Spigen Crystal and the Spigen screen protector.
The case is, as its name suggest, clear. It allows the colour underneath to show through - especially noteicable on my wife's Product Red iPhone (not photographed). I have the Sierra Blue iPhone 13 Pro.
What i really like is the raised border around the cameras and the feet. The feet hold a normal iPhone 13 stable, the more raised 13 Pro still wobbles slightly, as the camera bump is just too thick to make usable feet in the other corners.
The EZ Fit protector is great (I know other companies do similar systems). The phone fits into the frame and then you press the protector down on the screen. It goes on perfect every time. The only problem I did have, was I missed a grain of dust/ a grain fell on the screen between cleaning and putting it in the frame and the protector didn't sit properly.
Lessen learnt, the next 2 times (iPhone 13 + iPhone 13 Pro) it went perfectly.

The nice part about this case is that it is slim fit which means that it's 1/8" smaller on all 4 sides which reduces the overall profile of the phone compared to other casesFinally got around to photographing my Spigen Crystal and the Spigen screen protector.

Pitaka Fusion Weaving (Rhapsody) just arrived. Magnets are very strong
How’s the fit on the right side? Got a mag ez 2 and you can see the frame on the right but not in the left.
I purchased the SwitchEasy Ultra Thin 0.35. Here are my thoughts:
- It's basically a Peel or Totallee case with the buttons covered, which means it doesn't add any thickness to the phone. (I've never been a fan of the Peel or Totallee cases because the buttons, although exposed, are harder to press since they are flush with the case.)
- There is no branding except a logo on the back (bottom right corner).
- Since the case is so thin, you definitely feel the sharp edges of the phone. You take for granted how other cases cushion the edges.
- The volume buttons are perfect. Since the case is so thin, it feels like you're just pressing the phone's buttons without any interference.
- The power button might be a deal breaker for some. As you can see from the pictures, the case doesn't hug the right side of the phone. This means the case slightly hovers over the power button, so when you press the button on the case, you feel two feedbacks - one pressing the case and then the case pressing the phone. It's hard to explain, but it's definitely noticeable. It feels like with one press, you're pressing the power button twice. I read this same complaint on some reviews I read but bought the case anyway because it was relatively cheap.
- Like the Peel and Totallee cases, this case will definitely warp and lose its shape the more you take it off and on.
(I'm using an ESR screen protector in these pictures.)

A case I just bought (see above) is like that, too. I wonder what the deal is with the right side of these cases. Do you think it has something to do with the bigger camera cutout?
Looks great. It’s an amazing case. How it is so light, thin and includes super strong MagSafe is amazing.
I wanted to thank the forum for helping me decide on a case for my iPhone 13 Pro Max. I read all 79 pages and ended up with a Smartish Gripmunk. I am quite pleased. The sides are sufficiently grippy, the fit is tight without being crazy or interfering with my screen protector, magsafe works well, and the protection is adequate for not adding much bulk to the case. At $20 it is not cheap but is inexpensive compared to the $50-80 cases some people recommend.
Just got this Vaja. will use it for a while and give my feedback . So far quality is amazing much better than apples this year .
That's one handsome case and one crazy price
Got the same case, best case I ever got for an iPhone! Just love it!
Is it the MagEz Case 2 or the Air Case? I did order the MagEz Case 2 Overture for the iPhone 13Pro Max.

I liked this as well, but when I placed my order, it isn't on stock. But I'm happy with Rhapsody one too
.MagSafe magnets are strong as hell

Just received the new Peel Super Thin Bumper Case. It is very similar (which I expected) to the Spigen Ultra Hybrid Matte case which I already own. The Spigen has a darker translucent back and raised rear corners to keep the back off the table, which I like. The Spigen has a more raised, squared off front lip which I am not a fan of. The Peel case has a lighter frosted back which is fine, I like any translucent back over clear. I like that the front lip is not quite as raised and rounded which make it better for edge screen swipes.
I would say though that I don’t think the Peel case is worth twice the price of the Spigen case.

I purchased the Totallee Transparent - Hybrid Magsafe (Clear + Black) and here are my thoughts:
- The Totallee case is wider and taller than the Spigen Thin Fit, but the same depth.
- The buttons on the Totallee case are very tactile because they have cut outs.
- Unlike previous Totallee cases, the speaker holes aren't individual holes but big holes.
- The MagSafe magnet is strong (the only accessory I have is a charging puck, so I can't confirm if it sticks to a vent mount).
If you don't have a case yet, I would suggest the Totallee. If you already have a case, it doesn't bring a lot to the table that isn't already in other (cheaper) cases. I think I'm done looking for a case. I'm either going to stick with the Spigen Thin Fit or purchase a skin. (In the below pictures, the Totallee is on the left and the Spigen is on the right.)
