We're suddenly getting some early spring weather here in NorCal so the Rugged is back in service for the impending outdoor activities. It‘s really such a great case for its intended purpose.
Got a tip for us?

Its aramid can’t help the greasy fingerprints. That’s why I don’t do aramid. Lots say “wipes off easily”. But for me that’s a PIA.
Yeah, I agree; this may be my last year for aramid. You’d think they could figure out a surface treatment/texture to prevent fingerprints like they’ve done with TPU and PET, but no one has managed it yet.
I’d been using an ESR case (clear back, black sides, “stash case” being a kickstand around the camera as a protector) on my iPhone 15 Pro since launch day—and I absolutely believe their cases are quality and at a good price, but I got a Suti Phoneback as a Valentine’s gift from my SO.
So far, I actually really like the Phoneback; I‘m a bit nervous about the screen and titanium frame, but I thoroughly enjoy having a slimmer profile and reclaiming some of the space in my hand that is being taken away by these phones becoming increasingly big. The silicone feels premium and I enjoy the warm grey with the natural titanium. It’s a good “no-case” case.

Very impressed with Benks this year. The ArmorAir and ArmorPro are two of the best aramid cases I’ve used and this MagClap Mist is yet another fantastic case, especially considering the £15.99 price tag.
I have the Aulofe case from Amazon, which is similar, but you can tell the quality of this Benks is better. From the metal buttons to the camera ring. It’s got a slightly slimmer profile as well, which is very much welcomed.

Is the back frosted or a soft touch finish that shows fingerprints/smudges?
i had it for the 14 pro max and it was a fingerprint/smudge magnet
Shows smudges, unfortunately. Not as bad as other similar cases but still requires a wipe down every now and again.
Amazing, probably the best thing about the case. I wasn’t expecting them to be metal and they’re very clicky. The best buttons on this type of case I’ve used, without a doubt.
Have brand new OB Ryan London cases for 15PM for sale, one in black and one in dark brown (sold out). Looking for £40 each. Let me know if you’re interested and I can send photos.
It’s held up surprisingly well. I don’t use it daily but whenever I go out for runs or exercise or want some solid protection I use it.
Hasn’t yellowed at all and lip around the edges are still tight and not sagging.
I finally think I've found my perfect combo iPhone 15 Pro Max, I don't think I've seen this case yet in this thread, it's the peak design everyday case v2
Have they improved the oversized bottom cutouts or are they still the same as the Nomad cutouts?
Do you have individual lens covers on your camera? If so, can you share the link?? Thanks!
I am glad you like it, but for me, any case maker who makes the phone feel wider than it should is a complete no go.
Nothing new coming out from case makers so haven't been around these parts...hope you all are well. Been using this Torras case lately and enjoying it a lot. Very convenient this O ring can be. Matches the natty perfectly and not a smudge magnet at all since I know a bunch of you will ask that lol
Nope. Same crappy, symmetrical cutouts with mounting points for lanyards nobody uses or asked for.
I may have missed it, but has anyone ever noticed that Nomad, Moment, Peak Design, and maybe one other company all use the exact same design for their bottom cutouts? So they’re what, using the same designer? All owned by the same company/person?
Their cases share so many design cues, they have to come out of the same factory.
I wish they’d listen to their customers and stop with the fat bottoms and symmetrical cutouts. And we know they can do it because the Nomad Sport case doesn’t have the fat bottom (but still has the stupid cutouts).
I agree, these cases must all come out of the same factory; they appear to share identical underlying PC frames.
Have you tried a good leather case? The grip on my Bullstrap is fantastic, sides and back. It’s also a great feeling (and smelling) case.
This is ot, but I just wanted to thank everybody who participates in this thread. Reading this thread has been a great respite from hearing about politics.
I tried this case on my 15pm and my camera lens were flush with the ring and the cutouts hurt my pinky so I sent it back
