This is the Benks aramid fibre case as recommended by TT. Very similar to Pitaka mag ez pro case. This has a better fit and MUCH better buttons. Also much stronger MagSafe. Also cheaper. Impressed.
Looking good.

Have two ordered, one from Apple and one from Verizon. I'll cancel out the one that ships last.
So far.................crickets
Verizon = 10/28
Apple = 11/04
Woah, when did you order them? I guess I really lucked out finding a local Pro Max to reserve in-store after I changed my mind about my smaller launch day Pro.Have two ordered, one from Apple and one from Verizon. I'll cancel out the one that ships last.

Sent my 14 pro back so now have an unused Caudabe Synthesis and a spigen ez fit tempered glass pack that I need to move on, is there a classified section here? UK based
There is, but you must reach a certain level (post-wise) to access it:
Where is the Marketplace forum?

I just couldn't decide between these two. My only problem
Anyway, I'm waiting for Andar's sold out colours to come back.
Of all the cases I have this year (a lot) I still think the synthesis is the best of the bunch.
Any spigen thin fit owners? How is it?
Really wish I could find some nicer coloured cases. I have a 14 plus and all the cases are dark blue, black etc.
I love the apple silicone case, the succulent. But I’m not paying £50 for a silicone case. And silicone tends to be a lint magnet.
Anyone seen any lighter coloured cases, that aren’t bulky etc?

You might have a defective Mag Armor. This case has strong magnets.
Watch this reviewer swinging the iPhone around with this case attached to a MagSafe puck:
It looks like Moft has a case in Smoky Black similar to what you are looking for:

I agree, to each their own. I make no judgements. I just dont feel comfortable using cases with open sides. That’s my opinion.
Yes, not impressed due to the rattle with the buttons.
All good sir. My mindset these days is that it just doesn’t pay to baby the device so you can sell it for the highest dollar after not seeing it for a year.
Trade-in values are high on these guys and you can go straight to the source for more often than not one of the better deals available. I don’t see the point in going private even if it means a couple hundred extra. Maybe I’m just lazy.
I like the look of the open bottom as well as how the thin strip of leather and the smooth steel feel on the pinky. By no means am I saying closed bottom cases are any worse; I used and enjoyed an Ink leather case from Apple until I got my R.London.

I ordered the same case. Are your volume buttons kind of wiggly? I find mine jiggling whenever I move the phone . I can live with it but a little annoying lol

How are you liking this one? I got a similar case from Spigen and LOVE the look of it but the fit is just so-so. It feels almost like it's too...shallow? Like the sides of the case aren't quite tall enough to wrap around the phone as they should. I don't know, just doesn't feel quite right. I had this one on my list, but don't have any MagSafe stuff at the moment, so figured the Spigen one had more or less the same look sans MagSafe, but now I'm thinking of sending it back and giving this one a try.
Generally I’m a clear case user but got this hybrid one for my purple 14 Pro max and I’m loving the black and clear contrast.

Does the wallet prevent the wobble from the camera bump that occurs with the Apple leather case.

I've tried two Spigen cases so far.
First I got was the "Tough Armor". I like it okay. It feels really sturdy and well-made and the fit is excellent, no complaints there at all. BUT I don't particularly love the exposed/open cutout around the Apple; feels like a great spot for dust to work itself in and start making scratches. The kickstand is...kind of whatever. It's flimsy feeling and almost seems "slippery" in a weird way. I probably won't use a kickstand one way or the other but it's not much of a selling point for me. I got my phone in Deep Purple and kind of wish I got a case that showed the color more...
...so to that end I tried their "Ultra Hybrid". I got the non-magsafe version for now (I don't have any magsafe stuff yet) in Matte Black. It's a black frame and camera surround with a crystal clear back. Honestly I really, really LOVE the look of it with the purple phone BUT the fit doesn't feel great. It's like it's a bit too shallow and the sides aren't quite deep enough to wrap around the phone well and make it feel really "settled" into the case, if that makes sense. Going by the Amazon reviews I'm reading similar from some so I'm wondering if perhaps the QC just isn't the best. Really wanted to keep this one a lot as I totally fell in love with the aesthetic but the fit just isn't good enough for me to be comfortable with.
So I'm thinking of trying the ESR case in the above post which has a pretty similar look but also includes Magsafe.
I haven't perused the whole thread yet. Is anyone using the clear Otterbox Defender? I've only ever had two Defender cases. One was on my Galaxy S4 nearly 10 years ago. The rubber outer layer always seemed a bit loose and would want to pop/peel away from the plastic inner layer, just didn't ever seem quite right. The other was for my iPad and I got it probably ~5 years ago and it's been rock solid the whole time, no complaints. Seems like reviews are a bit mixed at the moment, but I might give it a shot.
I also have always thought they were super clunky and silly looking in the past but for some reason I'm kinda digging the look of the UAG cases on this phone.
