I agree, the material seems like it’s going to be slippery but I find it plenty grippy too! I have no issues with it as far as grip. If you had to knock it for SOMETHING, I’d say the speaker cut outs ( doesn’t bother me at all) and the magnets aren’t as strong as others on the market.

So what’s the consensus on best screen protector? Usually I always go Spigen no questions asked, but this year they aren’t impressing me like usual. I got a two pack before my phone arrived and when I opened it to apply one, it went on terrible. Not stuck down all around the entire perimeter, had to can it, use the second to get a better application and I usually do well applying them. So I’m wondering if that’s the best option, or if you fine folks have better recommendations?
I read the other thread on the protectors and still went with the Spigen. It was applied without issue though it did pop out of the alignment guide so I had to apply it on without the guide. But all is good and I think it's same as last year's 14PM version.

This is the one I bought. Very easy installation, edge to edge protection, much better than the spigen ones I had.
Big thread here. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/iphone-15-pro-pro-max-screen-protector.2401368/
The spigen ez fit was good enough for me. I understand the complaints about it but I am not super picky.
Regarding the bottom cutouts, I may actually try a Peak Design or Mous lanyard/strap at some point, which this case is ideal for. I’m a retired semi-pro landscape photographer and sometimes use the phone when on longer hikes where carrying the big camera and tripod is no fun. Could be more convenient than constantly taking the phone/camera in and out of a fanny pack.
Both over rated and over priced imo. @iFone88 got a sweet leather case from Ali Express at half the price. The case is top notch quality.
My partner has the multicolour one and it’s slim and feels protective and the edges and bottom lip are not saggy like past years.
So it took another 7 days for Pitaka to get back to me and I need to pay postage back to HK to get a replacement for the StarPeak Horizon, or 15% off voucher.
I’ve been using the case daily and I’m living with the streaks. Can’t be bothered sending it back and waiting for another one.
I did miss the FAQ a the bottom of their website saying the finishing may not be smooth.

Yes true, but the YMW seller on Aliexpress doesn't have a light color like @seaguy is looking for, at least at the moment.
Out of those two, I'd take Decoded since it's real leather. It's a very nice case and that color is pretty great too! Screen and camera protection is adequate in my opinion. The blanc is vegan leather if that matters to you. Not sure how it would age.
EDIT: The Aspen case is down to $41.25 right now as well (Blanc sold out) with no coupon code needed. That's a pretty good price imo.
That Navy is such a sweet color with the green undertones. I think that would be a fantastic combo, would love to see pics.
check out flolab. similar setup as spigen except you don’t have to remove any backing prior to install. imo that’s the weak point with spigen and amfilm. if you’re not careful you can misalign the glass. plus flolab provides a fullscreen dust sticker. see this video:

Mine was bad, but mine was for the 15 Pro, not Pro Max, but not sure if that makes a difference.
ESR one that Tee recommended in the last live stream.
ESR 3+1 Pack Armorite Screen Protector Set for iPhone 15 Pro Max, Ultra-tough Tempered Glass, Easy Installation Frame, 3-Pack with 1 Set of Individual Camera Lens Protector
decoded doesn’t provide enough screen protection imo. just barely over my glass screen protector.
Five and I Love Them All Equally lol.
No choice because Ali X FineWoven are no match for Apple offerings. Ali X quality is poor for FineWoven.
Looks great. With the raised bumps in the bottom corners does it actually lay flat on the back or does it still rock a little?
Man I was excited to get my Mujjo leather case today but another iPhone release and another disappointing case. I feel it’s always something with their cases. Mine has a terrible fit and just pops off too easy. Without that issue it could be so good.
This combo is the way and is going to be hard for me to move away from.
