Which Case Did You Get or Recommend For Your New iPhone 15 /Plus /Pro /Pro Max?

[Teach8870]

I’ve burned through a bunch of cases this year and so far, for me, the Pitaka Pro wins for precision fit and attention to the smallest details (the only minus being the usual aramid fingerprints). I have a Sheath coming this weekend, I’m looking forward to finding out if it can dethrone the Pitaka.

I really like mine also!

Both are great looking cases and would match well with the Natural Titanium, but I think it comes down to preference of material that both cases use. The Apple silicone is quite a bit lighter, but it is just that, Silicone. Whether or not you can live with that, that's up to you. It attracts quite a bit of lint, and can be a bit cumbersome to pull out of your shorts/pants pocket. The sheath, is a slightly heavier case, but does not add too much bulk IMO. If you've never used a Sheath before, the texture is more of an "eggshell" type of texture, which in my opinion is very comfortable to hold and provides great grip. It fits the phone perfectly. If you have ever used a oneplus phone, the grip is very similar to their Sandstone case. Also, it would provide much better protection than the silicone, and would fair a lot better in the long run.

Sorry for the novel, if you want my recommendation, I would say the Caudabe Sheath, or maybe even the Caudabe Synthesis since they just released that case in the Gray color. (I own Sheath, Synthesis, Silicone all in Gray).

Thanks - no need to apologise, it's good to hear an in-depth opinion.

I've used/owned the Sheath for my last few phones, I enjoy it - the texture/grip, the minimalist look etc but I really like the look of the Clay silicone in combination with the Natural Ti.

My gray Sheath is coming next week so I'll see how it goes with that, I think I'm leaning towards it.

Spamming the AliExpress again: got some photos of the case on the phone today. Wanted to highlight the fit, plus the lighting is a bit better today, not so overcast. Shot on an iPhone 12, all unedited.

In regards to lint, yes, it does collect it, but no more than my genuine Apple Silicone did on my 12Pro a few years ago. In hand, it does feel quite smooth.

I have two MagSafe wallets: the Cali Poppy pictured, and Umber. The Cali does show the animation when I attach to the case, but for some reason, the Umber doesn’t. Both show the correct animation with the case off though, and both with my DECODED leather (both genuine Mag wallets FYI).

If this wears well, I def. have no moral issue buying another in a different colour.

are the buttons clicky?

My photo memories reminded me that i will never get over this combo.

Get both 🙂.

If you trying to save dollars just avoid buying coffee from any barista or avoid ordering capsules for your home machine for a week or two lol.

They both are worth it in their own way but they definitely look hot with Natural Titanium.

p.s on the plus side less caffeine better sleeping habits.

Nah, Thinborne, you gotta support Texas business more than Chinese brands

Thinborne needs a TPU/aramid protective case to compete with the Pro models.

I think you made the right choice, but let me know what you think of the Gray Sheath when you get it. Like I said, I don't think you can go wrong with either combo. The clay silicone combo looks great, but for me, I much prefer the useability of the sheath over the silicone texture.

Get both 🙂.

Or there's this option too lol. I couldn't decide, so I got both for my White Titanium. Best of both worlds

Jade green Smartish Gripmunk on Nat Ti 15PM. This case is such a steal for $20. The grip on the sides, the clicky buttons and the fit to me at least are all on par with the Sheath.

More than 24 Hours passed and im still running Sheath. The magsafe ring on the outside is becoming less noticeable too. Apple magsafe wallet is doing some kind of trickery.

£260 worth Finewoven cases are all boxed up lol.

Told you so. Best case every year. Caudabe Sheath. Hard to beat. Glad you've seen the light!

 

[Surfsalot]

You guys must be getting the sheaths cheap, they are $75AUD shipped here now. Hard to cop lol

I'm in the UK and $75AUD shipped works out to around £39. I usually pay around £34 ($65AUD) shipped - do you use the CHECKOUT discount code? I think that's around 20% off.

Although by bank charge me around £1 separately for a non-GBP transaction too

Im interested, got pics?

Yeah, the thread in marketplace is here;

Finally got my Nomad Rugged (Ultra Orange) replaced. The replacement has no issues with the action button compared to my initial one received. Love the orange!

EDIT: added photo because the orange deserves one. sitting alongside the sexy Moft Snap MOVAS in white.

Anyone have the Pitaka MagEz can speak on how their titanium band is holding up because of the open sides? I really want that minimal case but don’t want to scratch my titanium all up!

Yes have the “over the horizon” case and love it!! It has a bumpy little grip on the back. I use it when at work or just doing day to day stuff. Phone is still too new ha! But like with my iPhone 14 Pro Max it will be my go to case. My only complaint is the ez ring they make doesn’t connect that tight to the case.

 

[ISignedUpToAskThis]

Bit of a long shot...

Anyone with pics of a Natural Ti with a Nomad Sport case in the Coastal Rock color?

Thanks

Moft Movas case in Misty Cove color with the white titanium iPhone 😍 case feels nice and light in the hands, and the vegan leather feels great in the hand. Fit feels as tight as the Caudabe cases, buttons are nice and clicky. Will see if it can stay clean enough to be my daily case. Overall though, I love it.

 

[iFone88]

Moff’s cutouts leave a lot to be desired IMO. Completely ruin the case.

 

[VaderRulez]

Black
Blue
Taupe
Evergreen
Mulberry

In that order for me

Thanks man. I will go with black then. Will let you know when I pull the trigger on one, thanks

To each their own, but cutouts don’t make or break a case for me 🤷🏻‍♀️ action button cutout, yes, but the moft cutouts are fine by me.

I got black although it's a more dark charcoal, looks and feels great, very light, no phone yet to try though lol
I nearly got nat tit but changed to black max at last minute as was in stock from telco.

Mine came with a mark on the side, rang apple and they said I could have another one sent or refund and keep it, said refund, after the call I put some spit on it and it came off lol
Guy said they are getting a lot of returns.

completely agree it's an amazing feeling case. so nice to hold and so lightweight! and dont get me started on the buttons, they're amongst some of the best I've felt on a case!!! the speaker cutouts on the bottom aren't such a deal breaker either. I got both white and black and just keep going back to the white!

I have mine coming in tomorrow. Very interested in comparing it to other cases.

Good choice on keeping the white! It’s a beautiful color. Which color iPhone do you have? I love the buttons! Very premium feeling, and I love how lightweight it is
