Just ordered the Elderberry and Storm Blue silicone cases from Apple. My only case for my 14 Pro so far is the Olive silicone.

Just got the Andar Aspen in Jet black yesterday for my iPhone 14 Pro. I love the look of it. It was slippery right out of the box but mine is already grippy. Seems to have “worn in” a lot in 24 hours lol. I keep it in my back pocket all day while working but I don’t think that’s too out of the norm… not saying I don’t like it worn in, just saying it happened FAST and hoping it won’t look completely trashed in a week. Only complaint is the bottom right corner pops off pretty easy, and I feel at certain angles I can see the MagSafe ring even though I have never put it on any sort of MagSafe charger or accessory.

The leather smells AMAZING though…
Had to come back and say… Andar has hands down the best customer service I have ever dealt with. They literally respond back via email within minutes… other companies take days or longer. They were extremely helpful and took care of my issue. I am definitely an Andar fan now!

Here they are. Def doesn’t look the same as aramid fiber. Has more of a shine to it. Grip is much better than solidsuits used to be. Fit is still great, just no MagSafe, if that’s important to you.
It's basically a 3M di-nox sticker...aka fake Carbon Fiber vinyl wrap that posers put on their cars usually.

Nice! Which Rhinoshield is this again?

Looks like a knockoff and ANDAR’s Marshal case.

Case of the day: Mous Limitless 5.0 Aramid Fiber 😎

I really like how the the white Mous logo pops against the case and black iPhone camera module. If it could be fingerprint free, I would never take it off my phone.

Digging through cases now looking for my Mous Aramid fiber.........................................:rolleyes:

#1 for greasy fingerprints is the Pitaka MagEz 3 Pro

Wonder who will take second place, the Rebel Gen 4 or Mous Aramid?

I'll be testing these out this weekend.
What’s the deal with that Catalyst Crux case? If I remember correctly, you weren’t a fan… but why not? Also, how is the grip on the limitless with the wood/bamboo back?

The crux had good grip but terrible buttons and weak Magsafe, returned it fast.
The grip is good on the Mous wood cases but the thing that bothers me is they have a clear varnish on the back that starts wearing off fast and ends up looking crappy.

I should know better based off of your feedback but I like the look of it in your pictures… the back looks almost like an aramid fiber-ish pattern, and I like the corners… so when you say bad buttons, are they hard to push, or just mushy? MagSafe I can take it or leave it, I’ll swap to a different case that day if I need it…
