I am keen on this case and have the following questions

Case for my 13PM

1. Will the ultra impact fit my Shellrus edge to edge screen screen protector?

2. Is there any difference between the matte and glossy variants with regards to the bumper? I understand one is translucent and the other is of solid colors, however, from by limited research, it seems that the matte variants have a different type of bumper, more “squarish” if that makes any sense. If they truly are different, which is better, and easier to put the phone in an out without causing micro scratches on the delicate stainless frame’s finish.

3. I dislike how Apple’s first party cases leave the “rim” of the frame exposed around the front of the phone which just looks ugly in my opinion, do these cases completely cover them?

4. I was thinking of a plain matte variant, I am not into designs, I just want good protection which casetify ultra impact seems to provide - I think.

Inputs are very much appreciated.

I was considering Mous Limitless 4.0, but I am not a fan of those symmetrical speaker cut outs, the unnecessary lanyard holes, and the bent design.
Dbrand Gripcase still have much weaker magnets compared to its competitors.
Apple silicone/leather - I hate having the rim exposed.
Spigen, the magnets are poorly made and ends up detaching itself from the case and sticking to the phone’s back.
Otterbox cases are just tooooo thick, lol.
Nomad/Belroy etc, - not crazy about leather - makes me itchy for some reason.
 
1 not sure. currently trying to figure out the same potential issue but with caudable.
2 the difference is the look. shiny or matte and the eco ones will be speckled due to recycled material. the transparent and semi transparent option all discolor with age.
3 it should cover it or at least more than the apple case
4 the back of these cases are slick and scratch easy when left blank. the prints are fairly durable and recommend for grip.

Strange as I saw one that had a textured back, it was a Christmasy designed case, however, not sure of the exact name/model of the case

the prints are on the outside back of the case which is what adds the texture. if you get a case with no print or very little it will be slick to hold.
