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

[Zensō]

CarbonThat with Nat Tit Max. iPad photos

Nicest feeling case I have ever had, smaller than my FW and 11 grams lighter, grippy, not smudging.
Soft on the pinky
Really good magsfe.
Does show a slight magsafe ring embedded in the back at certain angles, no white mark though from charging.
Has a 1mm lip with GSP on.
Good buttons lol

Looks nice. I just put my Pitaka Pro back on this evening. Looks similar, though much heavier of course.

I keep going back to the walnut Mous Limitless after trying a bunch of cases from the usual suspects. I may just sell/return most of the leftovers and buy another Mous in black leather and call it done for this year - I’m starting to get case fatigue. 😵‍💫

I thought you preferred the Nomad Rugged?

Ah, you know how it goes, this week’s starter is next week’s bench warmer. The Rugged is still in regular rotation along with the Mous and the Pitaka Pro. I have it pretty well narrowed down, but nothing is 100% set in stone yet.

One thing I have noticed is that the Rugged is starting to loosen up after taking it on and off a dozen times or so. It’s probably not a great choice for someone who changes cases often or frequently removes a case for cleaning.

Probably all made in the same Chinese factory

I don’t doubt it. I guess the same could be said for many tech accessories.

Oh really
That is a shame
A case that expensive should not have those issues, disappointing tbh but I don't remove my case often so hopefully it will hold up.

With the Nomad how do you manage to keep dust/dirt entering the speaking grills as the cut outs are quite large? Do you use a toothbrush or something to get out the debris?

It will probably be fine if you’re not regularly removing the case. I’ve had it happen to cases from various brands over the years.

I use canned air.

That looks great on the natural Titanium

Thanks! It's actually a little difficult to capture the color well. Looks more muted/drab in some lighting, but pretty bright in other lighting.

Mous doesn’t get great reviews on Amazon. I mean they get decent reviews.

How you liking the Mous?

Personally, I think it's a great case. I also have the speckled black fabric at the moment (one will go back, probably the speckled).

The tapered design with the pronounced lip at the top and bottom is the way to go in my opinion. The buttons on the green are excellent (the speckled black power button is very sensitive). I do prefer the more "rubberized" fabric on the speckled though and maybe by extension stronger magsafe adhesion.

Looks sweet. How did you get one? Did you pay 99$. That's crazy if so.

The blue and green have popped up sporadically on Amazon, so just kept my eye out. I have no idea why Amazon has had some but the Mous website was sold out for quite a while. It’s also cheaper on Amazon ($65 vs 100). Yes, still expensive but I was looking for a quality green case and this fit the bill.

do you know if the case texture on the sides is the same as the black cases? i’ve been looking on amazon for the blue case, but i have found the other black cases like the bamboo too slippery. wondering if the color version is the same material. thx if you know.

I wonder why the bamboo would have different sides than the aramid, leather, or fabric. The green feels pretty similar to the black fabric. Although the back texture is pretty different.

The apple silicone case for the 15 pro weighs 27.5 grams and is much more compact in terms of length, width, and height. I’ve been measuring a lot of cases with a digital caliper and apple wins by far

This is why I have been using the Apple silicone cases for almost a week straight. As much as I love the Synthesis, it's noticeably heavier than Apple silicone.

Apple ditching leather this year has really screwed me up with hunting for a perfect lightweight case

I am in the same boat with the Synthesis. I think I will be returning it.

I will be getting an Apple Silicone case for my White Pro Max. I just need to figure out which silicone case color. I know everyone likes the Clay this year, but I don't care for it, for me. I'm leaning either dark blue, light blue, or the light orange.

Dude I have to backtrack on my statement about not being able to recommend Andar Aspen because of the wait time. God damn was this thing worth the wait. The leather feels way better to me than last year (last year I had jet black so maybe that makes a difference) but I’m shocked more people aren’t talking about this case, especially since Apple Leather is gone. These are honestly better. But maybe no one is talking about them because it’s hard to get them lol. Buttons SUPER CLICKY, fit is superb, and the comfort in hand is amazing. I’m considering making this my daily driver but it’s so damn good looking I don’t want to scuff it lol. Also they stepped their game up on packaging big time as well. Super nice presentation. Couple pics below.

Edit: after posting I looked at my pics and the pictures don’t even do it justice. You’ll have to see for yourself. And I’m not usually fond of anything that has a different color than black around the front of my screen.

have the apple silicon case so far, i've never stuck with one for very long. we'll see this time lol

Not to nit pick, could be the photo, but this area looks a little rough and unpolished for that kind of coin.

I just got my first ever Caudabe Sheath and the volume and action buttons are super mushy. They make no noise at all when clicked. The power button is very clicky and makes a click sound. Is this the design or have I got a defective unit?

Joining the PopSocket brigade, as my wallet came in - although the Neon Orange PopTop is on back order.

I do love that orange. How does the case compare to an Apple silicone case in terms of bulk (if you’re able to make that comparison)? And what’s the lining like?

I really want to get hold of one, but for some reason, shipping to the UK is still a no-go for whatever reason, got this message from them yesterday:

Really annoying. The Decoded leather has been spot on, but becoming frustrated by this lack of shipping to the UK for that orange silicone.

The volume and action buttons on mine had a small amount of click but nowhere near the same as the power button and overall were poor. I think it’s a weakness of the case design as I have seen others complain about the buttons on here

Does the Apple silicone provide the same protection as the Synthesis?

Email their support. They'll send you a replacement

I have the Synthesis and the buttons aren’t mushy but you can’t hear the click which I’m ok with.

Which color silicone case are you using?

My brother got the Clay and it’s sick with the titanium natty.

That's it....every case stinks.

That’s strange. I just ordered it for delivery to the UK and my order went through. It’s now showing as out of stock for the 15 Pro Max but it let me order one. I even managed to get a 10% discount. I’m presuming this is the same one. 🤔
