These 3 are always my first considerations. I have had the phone rebel flex on my last 3 iPhones (no pro maxes). Currently have a Mous (speckled fabric for no smudges and more grip) and it has more grip than I thought. The new sides are better than they look and add more grip than I thought but nothing like dbrand. Mous magnets feel weak but in my car have not dropped once off the MagSafe car mount and the fabric on the case provides a non-slippery surface for the factory Apple battery pack.
Dbrand grip is my favorite feeling and looking case. Love the grip feel. HATE the MagSafe magnets. Just so weak. If they can tweak that, it’s the winner. But because of that it’s my least fav of the 3.
I’m thinking about ditching cases entirely and going naked, but it would be nice to have a pouch or sleeve that could be thrown into other bags. Has anyone used something like the Fitbag before?
Are you talking about these? $147AUD??Sent back the phone rebel. Keeping. Mous and castify bounce.

Otterbox defender and XT are known for scratching and pitting the phone.Anyone else found little nicks in their stainless band on their iPhone? I have never not used a case and I’m 99% sure it’s from using my OtterBox defender XT the last week or two. I never noticed it before that and that case has the hard plastic frame touching the front. I’m def not happy about it damaging my otherwise Pristine iPhone 14 pro!!
Dang.. I wish I knew that before. Oh well. I guess you live and learnOtterbox defender and XT are known for scratching and pitting the phone.
Definitely Phone Rebel. That doesn't make it a good case, but it does have strong magnets.Anyone have feedback on which one has the strongest magnets out of Phone Rebel or Pitaka pro, I normally can’t last more than a day with an aramid fiber case on because OCD with those fingerprints, but I have been using the Apple wallet on my Mous limitless so it eliminates touching the back and making smudges. But the magnets on the limitless leave a lot to be desired.
What makes it not a good case in your opinion? I had one but sent it back when I first got my iPhone 14 pro… but I can’t remember if it was because of just the fingerprints or anything elseDefinitely Phone Rebel. That doesn't make it a good case, but it does have strong magnets.
Lol I feel the same wayI know I said wasn’t upgrading to the 15 Pro Max this year, but I may if Apple release a color that I like. If I do upgrade I plan to sale my 14PM cases on the MacRumors Marketplace to recoup some of the money I spent.
This doesn’t work. For me at least. I still have fingerprints galore and actually feel like it made it worse. Just food for thought if anyone was considering trying it, now you have opposite opinions and it should make it nice and hard to decide lolAlright ladies and gents, so for any aramid fiber cases I have something that might help with fingerprints. I use this on the carbon fiber parts of my car, and can confirm it’s helping me with fingerprints on the rebel gen 4. https://www.amazon.com/303-Graphene...cphy=9024006&hvtargid=pla-1082821244567&psc=1
Your mileage may vary tho.
I saw your review on their site! But despite that little bit of ring showing through (I had to really look) this looks phenomenal. Love these shots.. this would be a perfect ad for this case!!One more Live Edge. Definitely fits me (as far as the colors go). Only complaint is how visible the magnet ring is on the back, but oh well. Sorry for lousy pics, I used my work-issued Samsuck A53
It’s pretty slippery, the camera protector doesn’t come out far enough, and there are a lot of pointy edges that make it uncomfortable to hold. I also think the glued-on sheet of aramid fiber makes it feel cheap compared to other cases that have it molded in.What makes it not a good case in your opinion?

Just picked up a sky, and an olive for my Space Black 14 PM! Thank you for the link, will report back once they arrive.So I took a "risk" and went with an Aliexpress knock off Apple Silicone case. Shipping took about a week or so but I got one and I cannot decipher any difference from the official apple one vs. knock off version.
I am kicking myself for paying apples insane pricing on these, but liked how they are thinner than any other cheap "amazon brand" out there. So I found these and paid a fraction of the price. The only thing it doesn't do is play that mag safe animation when clipped on, but who cares.

I bought a few of those cases for my 12 Pro Max and 14 Pro Max, and yes they are hard to distinguish from the real Apple Silicon cases except for the MagSafe animation when attached. I rather pay AliExpress prices especially because some of the Apple Silicon cases start to peel or get little dents after awhile.So I took a "risk" and went with an Aliexpress knock off Apple Silicone case. Shipping took about a week or so but I got one and I cannot decipher any difference from the official apple one vs. knock off version.

Do they give at the bottom around the charging port? That was one thing I didn’t like about the amazons. They had flimsy areas around the charging ports and the volume and power buttons..So I took a "risk" and went with an Aliexpress knock off Apple Silicone case. Shipping took about a week or so but I got one and I cannot decipher any difference from the official apple one vs. knock off version.
