If you ordered any cases for AliExpress last week and it hasn’t been shipped, it’ll probably be delayed by a week as I just found out that it’s their national day week long holiday 🥲

I've had 2 x Benks Pro cases for the 15PM, each one had an issue that required a return. 1st one had misaligned magsafe, so my genuine Apple Magsafe charger was approx 5mm to one side:
The second one had a power button that was completely solid and non functional when the case was on the phone. So watch out with benks this year, QC seems to have taken a hit. I had the Pitaka Pro case on my 14PM but found the shape a little uncomfortable with the sharp edges on the back. I see they have not taken advatange of the new curvier shape of the 15PM to smooth out the Pro case, so I'll be giving that one a miss.
I'm tempted to try the new Spigen Enzo Aramid case (Spigen Enzo Aramid), as that looks great for the price. Currently using a Ringke Onyx Magsafe case (Ringke Onyx Magsafe), which is a great fit for a budget case.

Out of interest, was this because you have rattle? I have a FW on my 15 Pro and the new action button rattles.
How is the silicone? Is it about as 'tacky' as Apple's? I can't get on with Apple's as it gets too much lint for me, but ones that are smoother I can.
could you share a link? can't find it on amazon. thanksI got this case from Amazon. Wow. I rate it 10/10. Comes with an accented action button too!
Never tried Apples, but this is very nice. Been wearing my “work from home uniform” of sweatpants since I’ve gotten it and no lint on it at all. Slides into pockets just fine too.

.Looks like a generic Torras...anyway. thanks.
I really, really like the fine woven case! I’m confused because going by early review videos and even the description, I shouldn’t like it. But it feels so good. I love the different textures on various parts of the case. A fun (and yes luxurious) feeling when I run my finger on the back, or edges, or sides. I fully expected to try and not like, but I’m having a hard time disliking it 🤣 The big question is durability…but I change cases here and there over the course of the year.
I also had a solid, non-functional power button on the Benks case; a friend of mine also with the very same issue. I'm waiting for my replacement case to arrive, but case just doesn't quite 'feel' like it did for the 14PM. Disappointing.
So what are the consensus best cases for the 15 Pro/Pro Max if you want good grip/feel and protection?
There have been soo many recommendations but I don't know which one to go for...
I have tried Mous Limitless 5.0 and returned it due to the sharp edges. I have also tried the Apple Silicone case but I feel it doesn't offer enough protection and collects too much lint and dust..

Put the traffic cone orange buttons into my black Symmetry case and now I'm happy
Also removed the Ringke camera protector thingy.

I like that very much with the orange buttons. I’m assuming you customised it yourself? Or can you buy it like that?

Got the same case. It’s decent. MagSafe could be stronger and its sags at bottom a bit. But good case.
For me, that would be the Caudabe Sheath or Caudabe Synthesis. Both have great protection and both are grippy in their own ways. They’re not massive and don’t add a ton of bulk to the phone, but feel solid.
But I’m a sucker for their cases and have used them for years across tons of different phones. So I’m slightly biased.
why dont you remove the protection foil from the back of the clear case (remove it from the orange spot)? Maybe its slippery because of that.
Got a reply from caudabe over the synthesis magnets.
I asked if I could switch for a sheath or have a refund. They said they’re working on a fix for the magnets. But that it’s only something that is affecting a small number of the initial production batch.
So have asked for another synthesis. See what happens when it arrives.

No
… just TORRAS arrived today.. ordered 1.5weeks ago. But I saw here some who already got it.
As much as I love the Synthesis, I just asked to switch to the Sheath with action button. The magnet issue is something I’ve dealt with since last year with the 14 Pro Max. I’m just done dealing with it. Maybe in the future I’ll go back to Synthesis but haven’t worn a Sheath in a little while so it’ll be a good switch up anyway.
