i am thinking of getting mous as well , for the buttons loose as in it rattles ? i had that issue on my iphone 14 pro max . guess its still not fix ?

They're physically loose - can wiggle them slightly without pressing them. Doesn't affect usage but feels cheap. For a $70 case, I expect firm buttons with no give.

Isn’t that just how floating buttons are? Or do other cases with floating buttons not have that issue?

Just ordered the Torras Magnetic Guardian:

TORRAS Magnetic Guardian Designed for iPhone 15 ProMax Case, [Military Grade Drop Tested] [Compatible with MagSafe] Slim Frosted Case for iPhone 15 Pro Max Case Phone Case (6.7"), Black Titanium

Phone Case

www.amazon.com

Still waiting on the Sheath and Ghost, and have been using a Gripmunk in the meantime, but the gap in the bottom USB-C cutout of the Gripmunk is driving me crazy haha.

The Torras one looks pretty good from what I can tell. Ordered the black version for my natural titanium 15PM. Would've loved to get the gray version, but I hate that they went with a white circle for MagSafe instead of just matching it to the rest of the case.

I like this case and was about to buy it, but I had to tell myself no more cases. 3 is enough this year 😔

 

[StaceyMJ86]

I did have the Sheath on the 14 Pro and it's absolutely a very good case. To be honest I still found it to be thicker than I would like, but perhaps that's the limit of how thin a case can get while still providing drop protection.

I would have gone with the Phone Rebel case with the exposed sides but Reddit is full of posts from people whose PR cases completely fell apart on them through regular use. Lots of stories like this:

.

I had the Phone Rebel case with the exposed sides and the rubber part on one side came apart from the case.

Well, just submitted my order for the grey sheath with the cutout for the action button. Never heard back on whether you could mix and match and get a different case/color when the version with the button comes out, but submitted my order for a sheath anyways 🤷🏻‍♀️ some things never change lol. Will probably mix in use with the Apple silicone I have, since I’m really enjoying it.

Nah, that's been my experience with every iteration of Mous cases

Wow, so it's not just me then!

Bullstrap - Dune Leather

My favorite case.

• The leather feels great to hold and smells incredible. The shading and texture of the grain at different angles is beautiful - hard to capture in pictures
• Buttons feel exactly like the old leather cases from Apple
• It is so close in design to the old taupe leather case for the X
  • buttons are thin and dark and don’t extend very far past the leather
  • the bottom opening is identical in every way to the Apple case

Mous - Walnut

• I use this the most
  • Top Comfort. The raised concave edges feel best when pressed into the palm
  • Easiest to hold. The rounded edges+corners & raised screen lip top & bottom add a lot to hold on to and wrap your fingers around
  • Feels more protected - thicker and more substantial along with the raised edges extending highest above the screen protector
    • the border around the cameras is raised on all sides

Pitaka

• Outstanding build quality and premium material feel - smooth soft almost velvety
• Sharper edges than the others despite the chamfering - making it less comfortable to hold
• Might return this and wait for limited designs of the MagEZ non-pro and/or updated buttons if I miss it

Caudabe Sheath

• The Sheath is flawless
  • Tight thin fit, excellent material touch, very grippy, strong magnets, rounded edges are comfortable to hold
  • Cutout for the action button is actually a usable alternative
  • Speaker cutout is just fine on mine
  • Would recommend this without hesitation

FineWoven

Just keeping this around to compare

• I dislike this case the more I use it
• It’s brand new but looks dingy in pictures - and will be worse with wear
• The frame is slippery and it feels like it has zero drop protection
• Great anxiety when taking this to Starbucks and eating Italian food for dinner

Don't you find the Mous case sharp around the edges which makes it uncomfortable to hold? I have the Speckled Fabric design, so maybe the other designs don't feel like this?

How has the silicone been with getting in and out of a pocket? Never really tried the silicone as I’ve always gone with the leather.

How does the Bullstrap and Caudabe compare in terms of comfort on the pinky when holding?

Close to ordering a Bullstrap.

I haven’t had any problems with it. I always see people complaining about it, but I haven’t run into it. Your mileage may vary, but I think a lot of the complaints about the Apple silicone are completely blown over.

What's the difference between the Sheath and the Synthesis?

I complained about this when I first posted about the cases before the phone arrived. It’s the edge where the wood meets the TPU. In real usage, that part never hits my hand and my pointer finger actually uses that material transition edge as an anchor point.

The sharper corner / edges in the Pitaka actually bother me more with the weight of the phone than that little scratchy edge in the back of the Mous.

Tee made a good video about the differences. Probably better than I could explain.

Maybe I need to get used to the Mous case and the feel will get better overtime? It's my pinky finger that hurts after a while holding the phone, perhaps I don't hold my iPhone the bets way?

How does the Bullstrap and Caudabe compare in terms of comfort on the pinky when holding?

Close to ordering a Bullstrap.

They’re totally different cases. If I had to choose only one I’d get the Bullstrap.

The bottom edge of the Bullstrap is naked so it’s just the titanium along with the back edge of the case which isn’t bothersome at all. The leather is thick and supple so it’s a much softer all around case to handle - even the camera surround is leather - no hard points. I’d give the edge to Bullstrap in total comfort.

In contrast the Caudabe is thin and so tight around the case that it doesn’t have any soft spots. The edges are rounded so it’s more comfy than the Pitaka, but less so than the Mous with it’s raised and more bulbous rounded edges/corners. Keeping this for hiking, gym, cycling, working on the car, yardwork - all the dirty sweaty things.

Two clear cases arrived, thoughts:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CB5XF11L?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_dp_WNWN6Z90J4VFYSYVV0FH

This one is good, has the soft TPU frame and hard back. This is superior to the fully hard plastic clear cases like Apple’s and snap-on style cases since those hard frames leave imprints in the metal antenna over time.

The magnet is average, about similar to Apple’s. I always found the brand ESR’s magnets too strong, so this one is fine to me.

Not too thick, not slim.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CG9YYLR6?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_dp_DYTPASWM901RBTADBE1G

This one is better. Same materials overall, but slimmer and slightly stronger magnet. I’m keeping this one. Will compare to Spigen when that arrives.

After these two, my Spigen Ultra Hybrid clear case arrived. I still prefer the Ringke, so I’ll return the Spigen. Ringke is the thinnest and otherwise these were all good materials/magnets.

Does the Apple silicone case feel nice in the hand compared to the Mous? Thinking of getting the Apple Silicone and using it till I find a decent case.

Celestial Blue Caudabe Synthesis on Blue iPhone

I love the pairing and the Synthesis feels great in hand this year, I wasn’t sure about it when I first received it without the phone in it but once I slapped on the phone I instantly loved it.

I used to be all about the Sheath but loved the Synthesis last year with the new grips on the sides and this year I remain Team Synthesis lol

Can’t wait for the free revised action button version

Have never used the mous, so can’t speak on that, but in my opinion the Apple silicone has very nice grip.

 

[UcanTry]

Got these as well.

LONLI Edition - (for iPhone 15 Pro Max) - Premium European Genuine Leather Phone Case - Develop Patina Over Time - Compatible with Magsafe - Brown
Zoof Genuine Leather Case for iPhone 15 Pro Max (6.7 inch) Top Litchi Grain Leather Magnetic Phone Case- Compatible with Magsafe - Red

Really great quality on both, but particularly enjoying the LONLI. The case feels like the leather did on the 12/13 cases or whenever it was that Apple very clearly changed the leather from one generation to the other. It’s a very nice feel in the hand, not at all slippery. And I guess that’s what she said, tbh. Great cases both tho.

I have the black lonli like the tan you posted here in the 2nd set of photos and love it. Extremely close to the past apple leather.

They are OOS but when they are available I’m ordering another.

 

[chhhrrriiisss]

I got the case today and I may return it

I find the edges too sharp and it hurts my fingers. Am I the only one experiencing it?
It seems that it's hard to find the perfect case these days!

💔 I hope you find a case you enjoy soon!

 

[Joe123Joe]

They have changed the camera cut out for 15 Pro otherwise i would have ordered it myself.

Fix the port cut outs and Unfix the camera cutout lol

What did they change for the 15 pro camera cut out? I didn’t notice any changes vs. the one I have for my 14 pro. There is no bottom on it for MagSafe, unless you mean something else?

They got rid of the bottom lip.

Camera protector. They were temporarily out of stock on Amazon. Will check again lol.

It’s been like that since the 14 pro version. To allow it to not interfere with MagSafe accessories. A few other brands do that too, I know Speck does it also. I’m not a fan of it either tho. Put the damn bottom back!!
