My Juggernaut iPhone Pro Max ADVNTR case will be here today. It is a very interesting design the iPhone slides in from the top, and it has a bunch of different tactical mounts available to attach to your person or vehicle. It is far more protective than any OtterBox Defender case I have ever used. It has one shortcoming: it does not do MagSafe. This is interesting because up until the Defender case on the 16, none of the cases have been compatible with MagSafe. The present one does, and I rather like it. With that said, I keep it mostly plugged into the MacStudio, as I have since I purchased this Mac Studio for file transfer. I am not sure I am going to use it. It all depends on how easy it is to slide the iPhone in and out of it.
Both questions have been answered in this YouTube. It slides in and out without difficulty, and the case works with MagSafe, but Juggernaut has a secure vehicle and desk-mounted MagSafe-compatible chargers. The MagSafe magnetic attachment does not hold well enough for the environment the case is designed for.

Yep, not slippery at all.
You do get smudges but you literally cannot see them because of the texture of the case. They also wipe off a lot easier than they do on a silicone case
Buttons on mine don’t rattle
Well, since Thursday, yeah 😂
Don’t think I’ll be tempted to take it off anytime soon
Cool, please give us some pictures of this bad boy once it arrives.
I can't believe I still can't decided which case to get for my new 16 Pro Max! Maybe I should just settle for the Apple Silicone case..
Buy a few, try them out, then return or sell those you don’t like. Rinse and repeat.
I just got one too and really like it, just wished they omitted the texture on the bottom of the case like the sheath, that texture isn’t as comfy on the bottom.
Are you saying that the nubby texture on the sides is also on the bottom of your Owl? Odd, that’s not the case (no pun intended) in mine. As much as I like it on the sides, I can see how that would be annoying on the bottom.
No just the main material that is on the back of the case. On the Sheath they use a totally smooth piece around the USB c and speaker area, it definitely feels good on your pinky when it’s smooth rather than sandpaper texture. Other than that I have no complaints about this Owl, it’s a great case especially for $20
Ahh, okay. I've never has a Sheath so I have no basis for comparison, so to me the back and bottom basically are smooth. But I can see how that could be improved.
O I legit have no clue. I know just as much about the updated case as you guys.
I agree. I’ve mostly been in super thin cases/bumpers all winter, but now that spring is here in my neck of the woods, I needed something more protective. The Alles fits the bill perfectly. Looking forward to your review (assuming you’re doing one).
I think I am going to go with Caudabe. I have been turned off Phone Rebel since the Orange Tough Ultra kit which is what I want has been out of stock for ages.
For those familiar with Caudabe cases, which would you say is the better case in terms of comfort in the hands and have a tight fit (I hate cases that are loose on the sides). The Paragon or the Sheath?
I had the Sheath a couple of years ago and I wasn't very fond of the sandpaper like feel of the case but I only tried it for a couple of hours I must admit, so maybe the feel of the case is something that takes getting used to.
