Have you tried the Benks? It blows the Pitaka away in regards to fit and button quality. My Pitaka bows at the bottom when I squeeze the sides, that's an instant dealbreaker for me. The only thing the Pitaka has going for it, is that the aramid wraps to half of the sides. To me it's also more slippery than the Benks.

Favorite case for me is the Benks, then it's a toss up between the PhoneRebel Gen 4 and Flex

What is this Benks you speak of? You have a link?
 
Happy New Year! My favorite case this year is this off brand frameless case on Amazon and the Caudabe Lucid Clear is second.

Anyone else get the Mous Limitless 5.0 for the iPhone 14 pro? The pro 6.1 inch doesn’t have a bottom on the camera bump…. Idk how I feel about it. I know it is so that MagSafe accessories can fit without the camera bump interfering but I’m gonna have to use it for a couple days to see if I want to keep it or send back to Amazon lol.
 
Can anyone speak on how fingerprinting is on the Benks Kevlar case?? I was thinking of swapping the Mous for the Benks but would like to know how it holds up to fingerprints on a scale of Pitaka MagEz Pro case to Phone Rebel Gen 4 lol

Fingerprints aren’t bad on it. I’ve had many cases and the Benks is the best case I’ve ever tried. Get it, you won’t be disappointed.
 
I just pulled the trigger on a Phone Rebel Gen 4. Hope it lives up to expectations from all the reviews I've seen. It was either that or the Mous Limitless 5.0 but Rebel had a 20% off coupon so ultimately went with that.
 
My crimson Caudabe Sheath arrived today. Relatively quick delivery to the UK, only ordered it a few days before Christmas. A little darker than I was expecting but it looks good and has a nice grip to it.

Does the black Otterbox Symmetry + case show scratches easily on the back?
No, I have it and haven’t noticed any. It’s not my daily driver at the moment but I have put some mileage on it and still looks like it did the day I bought it. I feel like that textured plastic that the Symmetry uses has always held up well to wear and tear.
 
Happy New Year guys!

My favorite cases are probably a 3 way tie between the Flex, the Gen 4, and the Sheath. Maybe the Sheath is 2nd since I didn’t keep that one but did keep the first two.
 
Thanks brother. Dunno if I can deal with the fingerprint issues. :(
The fingerprint issue is on par with the PhoneRebel Gen4 and Flex. I would say the Pitaka MagEZ Pro has the more prominent fingerprint stains. Whatever coating these companies put on the aramid, or Kevlar™ that Benks licensed from Dupont, seems to make a difference on how fingerprints show and how difficult to wipe off.

I say give the Benks a try, if it doesn't work out, it's a free return to Amazon.
