Maybe I'm the only one who thinks this rebel 5 case is the ugliest one posted here... very very very bulky, made from TPU, asymmetrical shapes...seems like a cheap one from aliexpress. just my 2 cents, please, dont judge.
Agreed. That bulk is very unnecessary and the case looks very cheap, not my cup of tea 🤷‍♀️
55 grams, yikes

Just a little update on my Mous limitless. I have a bench top grinding wheel with a soft fabric polishing wheel at work and I used it to smooth the sides that dig into my palm… feels MUCH better in my hand… nothing like grinding down a brand new 70 dollar case! Lmao but got the job done!

Sweet baby Jesus YES. The rebel 5 is a home run. The girl on the sides is perfect and I loveeeeee the slightly raised aramid feeling from the back!!! I put on the screen protector until my imos and shellrus sapphire ones come in and while it’s smooth, the thing is a pain to align. And you have to get that sucker on EXACT. Really needs a tray or something. Anyway Some comparisons between the 4 and 5
That is why I did buy Spigens align master for my 15 Pro. It was dead easy to install and it sits perfect, there was one tiny dust spec I did not notice though, so I have one tiny 0,5mm bubble on the screen 🙄 It was completely my fault because I was in a rush to install it at work LOL. They always give you two pieces, but I will wait until this one gets scratched up and only then change it 😁

I also do not like bulky cases.

I’m working on it. Have to make it to a fed ex or ups to send it back. They don’t issue prepaid postage either, which I thought was a little weak considering the price of their cases they can def afford it. lol

They want you to cough the return postage charges?

Is there a consensus good ultra/very thin case that has MagSafe? I’m not too keen on Peel or Totallee, tried Bare and did not like that. I’ve got a Caudabe Veil and that’s my favourite so far, but it doesn’t have it’s own magnets so the strength of magnetic attachment is not great.

So which do you all think is this year's champ for an aramid fiber case?

Pitaka MagEZ Pro, Benks ArmorPro, Spigen Enzo, Phone Rebel Gen5, or Mous Limitless?
Pitaka Magez pro. Tried the mous and it was too bulky and not as premium feeling. Tempted by the Spigen or Benks, but I think I have enough cases lol

Any UK based members interested in a mint condition, black finewoven case for £32.50, shipped?

I have two - one’s mine, one’s a work colleagues. Both in mint condition, in original packaging and been lightly used for one week. Happy to PM pics if interested??
