Which Case Did You Get or Recommend For Your New iPhone 14/Plus/Pro/Pro Max?

Kinda fell off the radar. Haven’t changed or bought any cases. Still rocking my live edge from carved. Still in love with it as much, if not more, as the day I got it.
however I can share my husband dropped his phone in his live edge and it protected the phone just fine. Case is fine too. So there’s that to report ☺️

I bought this case the other day. Hopefully I like it. I’ve been switching between cases the last few days and haven’t decided on one to use longer than a day.

It's on sale for $39.99 right now, might be worth the possible return headache

It’s like $27 to send a first class package from the US to China, which is why I didn’t bother returning anything to Benks. I wish I would have checked on that before I ordered anything.

Edit: if anyone in the US wants to try out a few different Benks cases for the 14PM, I know a guy.

I ordered a black one of those a while back. I wasn’t a fan, the black one at least showed oily fingerprints, and it felt like there was next to no grip. I hope you have better luck with the purple though because I liked the look of it a lot, and it’s much cheaper than the Peel version! Let us know what you think once you get it!
 
Curious, in all of your case professional opinions, which case did you find to have the strongest MagSafe? I know Caudabe has good ones, who else has magnets on steroids??

Will do. Peel is too expensive for their case to look so much like other cases. They did have good customer service refunding me for sending the wrong case, and letting me keep them.

In my own experience I find the Caudabe Sheath and the Benks Armor Pro have the strongest magnets of any case I’ve tried. Apple wasn’t bad and the Synthesis was pretty good but not as good as the Sheath.

Caudabe, Benks, and Phone Rebel all seem pretty strong to me. Apple, Pitaka, Speck, and OtterBox are definitely weaker, but how much weaker is hard to say.

I only use MagSafe for charging (sitting on top of an Apple puck on a flat surface), so as long as a case has magnets, that’s good enough for me.

my benks armor pro got grippy within just 3 days of use so just use it and it won't take long

Well for a heavy user like me 3 days are actually long. And I dont wanna wait until a case "maybe gets grippy" at some point. Makes no sense to me to keep something that I can't actually use normally.

Then return it 🤷🏻‍♂️? Shady was just trying to give you advice. Seems like you already made your mind up 😂.

3 days isnt that long and it just sounds like your finding stuff to not like about the case to me. for me the armor pro is not slippery at all

Ever thought about that it might be related to the type of hand? I don’t care if it’s slippery for you or not. For me it is slippy and that’s why I returned it. End of story.
 
Anyone see those new silicone cases that Mous put out? I wanted to try one but on their website I only see it for the pro max, not pro… curious if anyone has tried one??

I am using the mouse limitless 5 carbon with my new clicon/brodit car magsafe holder, no issues holding and roads are average here, from Technically T reviews on YT the sheath is stronger, but not a fan of that case myself.
