What is the point if you have the Pro Max? Mine lasts all day (currently on 60%) and just charge overnight?
Got a tip for us?

Can someone here recommend a good white case for the 17 Pro Max, prefer it as slim as possible with good grip.
My Pro last all day as well.
I don't like charging overnight. I only charge once before going to bed so it comes handy. I got few Anker and Ugreen Fast Chargers but wanted to give Apple charger a go.
Got plenty devices in our household so it will definitely get used and not end up in a drawer.

The back of the Paragon isn’t slippery. It’s smooth and the sides have ridges which give it grip.

I bought it to test it out. Even though I have the Pro Max, I can still drain the battery even more on my heaviest day of usage.

I’ve been looking for a good white case for two months now… I‘ve now settled for a dbrand Grip with a white skin, which is currently going through customs and should hopefully reach me soon. Another good alternative would be the Caudabe Paragon Moonstone - also not completely white, but comes close. Most other light cases, like Moft or Bellroy, are more grey than white, sadly.
If anyone ever makes a good white leather case they’d have an immediate new customer in me…

I’m not a guy that measure or goes by numbers, I go by feel and having used both the silicone feels much thinner in the hand.

I'm thinking about it! Waiting for a sale or code tho.

The thinness of the Air must make the slipperiness of the case more bearable since you can have better grip of the phone in hand.
This was one of the few cases I tried and couldn’t stand how slippery it was.
Good looking case nonetheless and great photos as always!

Looks like something I'd like to try - I want just a black or something other than this awkward blue and orange or silver colors however.
I should have it on the way very soon.
Can someone please post pics of Blue Sheath and Grey Sheath paired with Cosmic iPhone.
No YouTuber is gonna tell this but my pinky finger is suffering from Dbrand Tank Case. I freaking love this case design but sadly not my pinky finger 🥲. The groove near the usb cutout is digging into my finger.
I realize now on why I downsized from Pro Max to Pro back in the day, it was because of the weight of phone+case. Thankfully, I haven't gotten this pinky fatigue on my Andar or Techwoven as combined weight of phone and case is much lower than rugged type cases like Dbrand's Tank.
So, it's not the case but the combined weight. The design and look of this case is otherworldly. You make your compromises I guess.

Yep comfort is most important to me vs how sexy a case looks.
With that being said the Apple Silicone and Caudabe Sheath feel like butter in my hands and pinky. They won’t win a case beauty contest though.

Not yet. First said Wednesday then switched to Saturday. It’s 90 miles from me currently.

My black precise Sheath is enroute for delivery today. I am hopeful that this is the final case for me. It will likely have to battle it out with my Cactus, but hope that it lives up to the hype

Every year. It was my primary case for my 16pm

There’s really no hype. Seems like the ole reliable battle tested Sheath to me.
I’m actually hoping the Paragon lives up to the hype.

My only visual/design concern regarding the Sheath is a misalignment of a bottom cutouts.
