It all depends on your hands with the Benks. I don’t have dry hands or moist hands so to me the grip is just fine. I would say try it out because things are going to feel different to different people.

This might be the year for one of these. Is there a lot of give to this case? I prefer a rigid case.
Damn, this is looking so good. Love the nice soft interior including the buttons.
Checking them out now on Amazon.
You really can’t go wrong with either in my experience.
So far only the Pitaka but have the Ringke Onyx magnetic and Otterbox Symmetry in black on the way.
Benks - Have button covers but potential finger magnet
Caudabe - Only cutout for action button but no fingerprints (I'm not from US and order direct from Caudabe costs alot)
will appreciate your opinion which 1 is better in terms of convenience
Just got my Speck Presidio2 Grip for the 15 Pro Max
I hope they rethink that. I love their cases - high quality leather, smells amazing, ages beautifully and they have fantastic customer support but not having a button there just seems like they want to rush to market
I ordered the one that looks like mountains for my blue ti. I think it will look awesome! at first I thought they sucked. I have had the black/gray cases from Pitaka for the last couple of years. I wanted something different and I think this will be look a lot better while still being lightweight,Anyone get the Pitaka StarPeak MagEZ 4? These two patterns would look so good with the Blue Ti

is it the lighting or the actual colour is not like what is portrayed on the website?
I wonder if this is going to play well with the titanium. I’ve seen a lot of pictures of the titanium on the Ultra getting beat up around the screen but it may be because of the polished bezel.
Not gonna lie, I just ordered one of these after seeing your pictures. Could it be that this actually feels as good as it looks? To my eyes this looks very close to the Apple leather case from last year… plus their listing says the case weighs only around 20 grams which is 10 less than the FineWoven!
So far I have ordered the FineWoven (FW) in Taupe and the Torras Magnetic in blue for my 15PM. They each have their flaws in my opinion. I've already read all the negative issues with the FW so not looking for feedback on that one but I've never used a Torras case and was interested in what others' feedback has been on them. The first thing that jumps out at me are the buttons. Can anybody that has used this case before comment on how the buttons are? I know they won't have the same feedback as a true mechanical button like on the FW but are they fairly responsive? I like that the case has a kickstand on it and was thinking I might use the case on trips. @andymodem , I think a saw you post earlier on in this thread you had this case. I'd love to hear your feedback about the buttons if you don't mind. Going to wait till after I get a phone in it as well to make a final decision of course.
I may still get a third to try, I liked those ESR cases you guys were showing with the built in stand but it looks like the blue 15PM one is sold out now. My prior phone had a nomad leather case which was very solid but it didn't have the mechanical buttons. Looks like Nomad upgraded this year though so that could be another contender but honestly the Mujjo cases I just discovered (thanks to this thread) look pretty sick and buttons look to be premium. May end up going that route and returning one of the two pictured.
Thanks again everyone for all of your recommendations. Great thread!! Can't wait till Friday!!

That’s one of the reasons I ordered this one. It is very close to the Apple one. Light too.
P
The Caudabe case won’t show fingerprints, and it has a textured finish and depending on the person some people like it, some people don’t. I think the texture feels good and adds to grip.
Honestly I would say if you want good grip go with the Caudabe, it has an amazing fit and grip.
I don’t see many fingerprints on my Benks case but I’ve heard some people have, it wouldn’t bother me personally if I did.Benks - Have button covers but potential finger magnet
Caudabe - Only cutout for action button but no fingerprints (I'm not from US and order direct from Caudabe costs alot)
