I had a bunch of cases in and out of here over the past few weeks and weighed them all.
Sharing in case this might help others since the weight of the case itself seems to be rarely published.

iPhone 15 Pro | 187g | |
Pitaka MagEZ 4 | 19g | 206g |
TORRAS Magnetic Slim Fit | 23g | 210g |
Apple FineWoven | 26g | 213g |

Apple Leather | 26g | 232g |
Some quick thoughts on each case with the 15 Pro:
Pitaka MagEz 4: I had used the MagEZ 3 on my iPhone 14 Pro for a year and it was great. The Mag EZ 4 version for the iPhone 15 Pro is much more "rubbery" and doesn't have a good grip in comparison. A disappointment.
TORRAS Magnetic Slim Fit: Great for a budget case. Really my only complaint was that the lip around the edge seems a bit too high and got in the way of swiping. Perhaps a screen protector eliminates that concern.
Apple FineWoven: Didn't like it at first but after a couple of weeks it's become a favorite. Maybe it won't have good longevity, but it's light and very comfortable to use.
Apple Silicone: As one would expect if you've ever used an Apple Silicone case. Well made, good fit.
Decoded Leather Back: This case is excellent and reminds me of Apple's 14 Pro leather case. A little bit thicker and slightly heavier than Apple's old case, but not enough to matter if you are used to the Apple leather case on the heavier 12/13/14 Pro.
Spigen Magnetic Enzo Aramid: I like this case a lot. Well made, great fit, feels good in the hand, good grip. Unfortunately it's the heaviest case I tested and it erases the weight reduction provided by the iPhone 14 Pro -> iPhone 15 Pro upgrade (at least compared to the iPhone 14 Pro + Pitaka MagEZ combo).
