It was a good looking case but that Magsafe ring made me mad.

I never noticed a ring in mine, but I also don’t charge via MagSafe. I put my work phone on the MagSafe charger and plug in my 15 pro
I can't remember, it's been a while. I would say pretty close though.
I find the symmetry a touch bigger, but much more comfortable in hand than the Mous
I wish one of these companies, Pitaka, Phone Rebel, or Mous could make their Aramid Fiber immune to fingerprinting and smudges… I would never use anything else, but after a day or so I have to get out of the aramid before my OCD drives me wild LOL
I like Mous too but the double branding, the two lanyard cutouts and the price is ridiculous. It's $100+ here. There used to be a local stock selling it for $70~$80 but not anymore.
Might as well get a Spigen Enzo or a Pitaka since they're cheaper and easily accessible.
Yeah, I wish Rebel would just go back to their R logo instead. They also have double branding on top of the case + on the lower back.
What’s a case as thin and light as the Finewoven? I tried one on in the store and loved the lightness and thinness but I hated how the back felt. I’m using a Caudabe sheath now and it’s a bit heavy.
Anyone have or try Belemay leather cases?

After a day with the Nomad Sport (in Coastal Rock), color me impressed. Slim, light, great fit, great buttons, surprisingly grippy, minimal lip (swiping action is lovely in this case), perfectly rounded edges = super comfy to hold... Dare I say, this might be the perfect case for the iPhone 15. It's every bit as comfortable to use as the Apple silicone case, but fits better and doesn't act like a lint roller in my pocket.
Only drawback so far - the back is definitely a fingerprint/oil magnet. Luckily it wipes right off, but if there was any suggestion I'd have for Nomad, it'd be to offer this case with a matte/slightly rubberized back too. The material of their sport watch bands would be perfect.
I’ve tried cases that checked all the boxes except finger print / smudge magnet and ended up returning. The “luckily it wiped right off” gets old for me.

Nomad magnetic leather backs are now available.
I like the idea, but it uses "reusable" sticky pads at 3 corners as well as MagSafe to hold it on the phone. Not sure how I feel about that.
Here's a review:
I honestly don't regret it...especially since it was purchased with Apple Cash lol
Just ordered this as well . Does it fit nice and tight ? Does MagSafe leave a ring on this case ? Thanks
Fits like a glove, feels great in the hand, and does not leave any marks with my Twelvesouth HiRise 3 Deluxe

Here's a review:
According to that review, he says the magnets do seem to be stronger than their regular cases, so that's a plus.
I got one in today and it's really really nice. I was going to get a MagEZ 5 at some point, but when the Benks costs half as much for something equally as nice my need for a thin aramid case is sated.Benks Montage ArmorAir is one helluva thin case. Goodbye Pitaka MagEZ 5.
I also like how easy Benks is to take on and off. As an every couple of days case switcher that's very appreciated. Though I think the Benks will be more of a at home with carpeted floors kind of thing rather than something I'll take to work or out of the house.

It’s a good thing I look at the front of the phone and not stare at the back of the case then huh? Feel in hand trumps all my friend.
Not for me. I also think there's too much branding.
Agreed, branding on the back doesn't bother me all that much, I find too much fuss is made about it. But I know it's to each their own.
