Does nobody here use the Blue MagEZ Pro 4?

I had this case, but did not like the look at all

You have ditched the Phone Rebel lol?

Nope I still have frosty in the collection
 
Even all of that aside, it’s complete overkill unless you’re doing extreme activities. The vast majority of people won’t need anywhere near that amount of protection.
I don’t disagree with you, though I do think some fairly large number of people like the idea of an indestructible case with a high level of protection, even if they don’t actually need it. The perennial popularity of the UAG Monarch and Otterbox Defender seem to support that idea.
 
Did you not read my reply earlier when I referred to people working on a building site? Obviously not.
ok missed that, need more coffee early here, sorry :)

Couple weeks travelling around Bali even my symmetry got scratched on the back, so there is other uses.

Today is White Nomad Sport. Besides that case with multiple colors, the Pitaka MagEZ 4 Pro 600D, Dbrand Ghost. Those top 3 have been used the most since the start of the new year.
I’m trying to decide on my next phone case purchase and it’s actually between these 3 and a sheath lol any input haha

Well all 3 are lightweight, nicely form fitted to the phone without being impossible to remove, and have outstanding buttons as well. I love the feel of the Nomad Sport and Ghost, where the MagEZ 4 is the boxiest out of the 3, but not bad at all. All 3 have worked just fine with my MagSafe accessories and wallet. You are looking at 50, 50, 60 with Pitaka coming in as the most expensive.

Dbrand is also sending out new cases starting in April to those who bought a Ghost due to the lack of scratch resistance on the current Ghost. To be honest though, that talk was way overblown and mine has been quite decent.

I am not a fan of the Sheath material after a long stint holding the phone. Just feels weird to me and is the heaviest out of the 4.

Looks like a new case from UAG was recently released, the Plasma XTE. Includes a kickstand, MagSafe, and even an Action button.

Yeah I’m not either. Not sure of its function? To make the bottom less flimsy I’m assuming, but plenty of companies accomplish this without that little bar sticking out.
I believe it helps for swiping up. Testing it as we speak it seems it does help with swiping up because it’s flat there.

How comes you don't use the Phone Rebel anymore?
 
You have the clear or the frosty?


…but I have the PR Frosted…


Indeed to the Frosted case being hard to take off. I really struggle with taking it off.

I am thinking I should have gotten the Crystal instead of the Frosty for my 15 Pro Max?

I contacted Phone Rebel regarding the frost wearing off…

I have just received the PR Frosted case and I must say I am really impressed...
 
I find it good but I don't like how difficult it is to remove the case.
Hold your iPhone upside down, take off the right down corner first. Then take off the left down corner. Take the bottom of the phone out of the case and then take out the rest.

This way you won’t damage your PR case and it is quite easy to do. I took these instructions from dbrand. :))
