5, and I’m stopping now. Nomad Rugged in both black and orange, Mous Limitless in aramid, Apple FineWoven in black, and a Pitaka Pro arriving on Monday.
1). Pitaka mag ez pro. It’s amazing. More I have had it (lol a day or so…) I am not sure what else to buy. Tbh I love the look at feel of the clay apple silicone case but am not sure about it as a use case. Same with fine woven. Felt nice in store but I don’t think it will age well.
Lots of cases I want to handle but this may be the one.

I felt the same way about the camera cut out looking at pictures, but it’s actually lit in real life! lol I wouldn’t mind it if the little scoop wasn’t there, but I feel like it looks way better IRL
Finally got my Rebel today and gave it a try… I really like the redesigned side grips and how flush the edges are around the screen with the high corners but those metal accents match the black titanium terribly in my opinion. The case might sit on ice until new camera ring colors become available. Just don’t care for that color in real life AT ALL. Other than that I really like the case, what a shame. Back into my black synthesis I go…
Pitaka MagEZ Pro is showing up tomorrow. Hopefully that ends up being the “glass slipper” lol but otherwise I really only have my eye on POSSIBLY the Nomad Rugged if the smudging on the back is improved from last year, and I have an English Tan Andar Aspen with the button cover on the way. Then I’m finished……. I hope…. For now….. until I get paid on Thursday 🤦♂️

9 ordered. 3 returned. 5 kept. 1 still coming. I may be done now. Or not. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Yeah I’m aiming to keep it under 10 this year… every time I upgrade I have a shopping bag full of cases to clear out of my drawer… and no one to give them to. Wasteful AF, but I love this ish 🤣
Little late but I assume that they did this because some cases interfere with massage attachments.
haha... I forgot one. I had a FW case that I returned before I even got the 15 pro. So, that should have been 10 ordered, 4 returned, 5 kept, 1 still coming. Don't think there's any more room in my drawer. 🤣
Honestly this year it’s going to be hard to beat the Sheath and Synthesis this yeah imo. It’s really so many great options but Caudabe nailed the even better fit than last year with having a more rigid material. This Synthesis is going to be hard to beat for me.
Hey Tee. Since you take your cases off all the time, have you ran into this issue? The bottom MagSafe magnet getting dislodged on the Synthesis. Example of my case below
It’s funny because me and the contact I have at Caudabe were just going back and forth about this via voice memos and he stated this was a very small batch that was affected by the manufacturer missing a step with the bottom magnet. If you reach out to support I’m sure they will take care of you but they said this would be the issues with a very very small batch if you had one of the earlier models.Hey Tee.

good to hear that ... cos I just pre-ordered Grey Sheath few days ago ..currently using Benks ArmorPro
I always wanted to try the Otterbox lumen.Forgot I even ordered this case lol...the Otterbox Lumen in gray I ordered from Apple showed up today. What an outstanding color and matches the natty titanium perfectly. Tactile buttons are amazing too. Not bulky, the perfect amount of protection I like in a case that's not too thin.
Magsafe strength is next level
Has anyone had this in past years? Does it yellow at all?
Is this one of those cases that only available from Apple?Forgot I even ordered this case lol...the Otterbox Lumen in gray I ordered from Apple showed up today.

I’ve ended up with the Pitaka MagEZ on my last 3 phones. Really like the grip and the small size works well for me as I don’t have the biggest hands for the Max size. Using the MagEZ on my 15 PM since the start but the same worries I always have with the new phone are there - what if I drop it?! So I’ve ordered some more cases to try as possible alternatives which should arrive in the next few days
- Spigen ultra hybrid magfit. In general I don’t like clear cases so not sure why I ordered it but let’s see. Feels a shame to cover up the natural titanium.
- Spigen Enzo Arimid. Concerned about how grippy it will be but otherwise looks interesting.
- Pitaka MagEZ Pro. Hopefully gives the same grip as the thinner case but with more protection.
All are probably a bit heavier and bulkier than I would really like but that’s the trade off for protection. I would consider the sheath but as I’m in the UK the international shipping is a bit off putting. What’s the likelihood they will all get returned and I’ll end up sticking with the MagEZ?!

@TechnicallyTee Where did you see that? Of all the pages I’ve read the Decoded brand seemed like a safe bet, so I ordered off the back of that-hadn’t seen any comments about scratching. Wondering whether I’ve made a mistake now!
As it turns out, it’s one week on from ordering and I’ve not heard anything g anyway, so maybe not too late to cancel if that’s bad… Could you point me towards any images you may have seen?
Ok great thanks. Which ESR leather wallet do you use? I’m looking the Geo with find my. Do you know if it’s possible to purchase a spare charging cable?
the frame around the camera ring is metal. just don’t place your phone down and slide it all around. i had a case last year and it didn’t scratch. i am slightly an@l and am always careful where i place my phone down and try not to slide it back and forth, so maybe that’s why. i wouldn’t worry about it. it’s not going to scratch your phone, the case just might look bad if you’re not careful. that’s my 2 cents.
Is there much difference in how they feel? Currently have a Synthesis but debating a Sheath too.
I thought BS is expensive (with delivery to EU)...until I've found this: https://gray.inc/collections/alter-ego-for-iphone-15-pro
I might have to take the plunge and get the gray one for my blue ti 15 pro max.
Dang.. Oh well. I think I will stick with the Apple Silicon case , one of my friends has it and I tried it and feels so good in the hands. This Torras can be a spare one.
