Which case will you be getting for your new XS/XS Max? [MERGED]

How tight to the phone is it? Is there any give to the tpu?

Its pretty tight, much tighter than the sheath. A little give on the bottom center but the sheath had a much looser fit and lasted for 5 months without any problems.

What I usually do these days is buy a case on amazon, and if I dont like it within the 20-30days.. simply return it for a full refund.

Oh man... I just got home for lunch to see the Evutec package outside my door.

I want to send you my upmost gratitude for steering me into buying this case. It is perfect, the grip is the best I have had, and the vent mount fits my car perfect. I immediately threw my Sheath and apple leather into a shoebox.

If this were reddit, you would have received gold.

I had the XS since January flipping through phone cases, today it ended.

I'm happy you like it. I wish I would have stopped buying cases after I bought the Evutec, because i always go back to using it daily. If Pitaka makes right, I'll compare the Evutec to the Magcase Pro. I expect it to be similar, with the Evutec being slimmer. As I said I'll sell the other cases I listed before, just to pay for the Pitaka despite their questionable sales tactics. Still waiting to here back from them.

Damn, I promised myself to not buy any new cases, but now I am tempted to buy the Evutec...

I do the same. I’m always checking to see if they have any new additions.

99% of the cases go back - they must think I’m crazy.

Once again this thread has spent my money, I just bought a couple ringke cases because they had a big sale and just now bought the evutec case. 30% off is too good to pass up and I won’t be upgrading this year so I’ve got a full year of using new cases.

I have it in my amazon cart as we speak

I have it in my cart on the Evutec website right now. I read 30% off and free shipping, so I had got buy it. However... They don't ship to Europe. So no 30% off and free shipping for me, thus no Evutec case for me.
 
I couldn't find a picture of this, but does anyone know the cutouts at the bottom of the case for the Max (evutec)? Are they symmetrical or are the made for the phone speaker grills?

X/XS is the same case, the cutouts are symmetrical, exposing about 1/10th of an inch on the XS. Not much of an issue for me.

Assuming XS Max does not vary in design.

I love the ringke cases and also have enough cases for the year.

I do prefer the asymmetrical personally. Not an issue, but definitely curious

So the max has a revision while the regular doesn’t?? Thats kind of screwed for Evutec to do that!!
Click to expand...

I wonder if they have both versions like Caudabe had for the Sheath?o_O
(BTW- Would love to sell this "set"..never used in blue. I can't explain why...I really can't LOL)

I see in their website that the X/XS case had the assymetrical cutouts but that would mean that it would not work for the X? I an confused..
 
I just got mine today and it may now be my favorite case. It’s thinner than I expected and really does feel good. The buttons aren’t as good as my former favorite rhino shield but they’re good, equal to the sheath. Definitely keeping this one, can’t believe it took me this long to get one.

So my newly revised favorites are now:
1. The evutec
2. Rhino solid suit
3. Caudabe sheath

I also love how it works with the wireless charging with no issues AND has the magnet mounts embedded in the case. The Mous claims this also but wireless charging has not worked in my experience.

I haven’t had any wireless charging issues with either the leather or carbon mous.

I second this. No issues at all wireless charging using any iPhone case i have had, including the mous limitless. Must of had a bunk wireless pad!

Went to target and got the evutec. Very impressive. Going to order from amazon to take advantage of the 30% off

The grip is nice, fits right enough. Not rhinoshield or mous, but similar to the sheath as mentioned previously. Only downside is a personal one for me. The logo. Too noticeable imo
