The Ringke Oynx has got to be up there with the best of them, surely? Slim profile, textured/grippy sides, nice lip, tactile buttons and full camera housing protection. Cheap as well.

Kind of agree, though it's action button is so so, and the pinky comfort is also average. I also find it frustrating that they only do the black with magsafe - I want the blue, but it doesn't have a magsafe version.

Looks similar to the Spigen mag armor. Like that the Onyx has matrix grips.
 
Still waiting for my Rebel Frosted and Bullstrap Maverick, but some of my favorites so far that have made the cut and not returned....

Can't see myself adding much more ...just waiting on the other 2 cases to come to my top 5 conclusion

L to R

White Nomad sport case
Coastal Rock Nomad sport case
Nomad Modern Leather
Winter Blue Apple silicone
Cypress Apple silicone
Smartish Gripmunk
Caudabe Synthesis
Spigen Ultra Hybrid
QuadLock MAG case

Nice side shot! How do you rank them?

Can you do a quick pros and cons for each one?

I really wish they’d release more colours for this.

It’s so flexible, does it provide any protection beyond scratches?

Buttons aren't as good as the Mag Armor... I know you love your Mag Armor, as do I.
The only thing thing I would want with the Mag Armor and it doesn’t bother me, is that the sides at the buttons being more stiff. Other than that feels so f’ing great in the hand.

20% off Mous code worked perfect, Thank You.

Now I have another 20% off Mous code if anyone needs one.

Agreed, my top right corner pops off occasionally which bugs me.
Any chance you'd share that code with me too? Looking to order again from Mous.

Sure, it's on my other phone. I will send it to you in a private message in a bit.
 
Corner pops out? Hasn’t happened to me.
Yeah the top right, it seems to happen to me with quite a few cases, I sometimes take it out my pocket and the top right corner of the case has 'slipped off' so to speak. It's not a major issue, just pushed back on, but for whatever reason it happens to me at least once most days. About the only case I've had this year that doesn't do it is the Caudabe's, but ditched those because of the buttons 🤦🏻‍♂️ I prioritise good buttons and other things over the top corner bit.

Once I get the Rebel frosted, which is coming next week, and I get the Bullstrap Maverick I'll be ready to drop my top 5. Then will see if anything launching in 2024 makes the cut going forward.

The Pros I look for in a case are slim (not super bulky) and lightweight (gotta enjoy that titanium feeling still), quality tactile buttons, and has to have strong MagSafe. So far the Nomad sport case is the only case that checks all the boxes, for me.

The other case don't necessarily have cons, maybe slightly worse buttons and MagSafe. I returned all the cases that had true cons.

Thanks for the high level recap. And looking forward to your top 5.

Do you have any interest in Pitaka’s new MagEZ 5? I think I’m done buying cases for now, but later in the year I might get a slim case like Pitaka if it comes to Amazon.
 
How often does the forest green mous case show up on Amazon? I need it.
I placed my since-cancelled order for the Pro Max 15 version on November 25th, it appears. That's the last time I saw either the Green or Blue listed on Amazon, for any phone model.

I was seeing if the blue would pop up, so I was checking fairly regularly. It's possible one might have snuck through, since when I placed the order for the green, it vanished very quickly afterwards.

Did your blue & green cases from Mous ship yet?

Just ordered the green this morning.
