Magpul Field case for 5s Review

Yep - they fit fine with the iLoome (or any screen protector for that matter)
The Magpul front lip doesn't overlap onto the front glass. It stops right at the edge of the chamfer.
Thank you!
For me feedback is quite nice on the sleep/awake button but not as good on the volume buttons. I really disliked the Tough armour. In addition to the bulky buttons I disliked the slippery plastic back and the exposed hole..
The clear looks nice! The only thing I worry about is sometimes clear plastic tends to yellow over time. I wonder how Magpul's clear will hold up..
Always the black case for me. Clear one makes the phone look like it's covered with a ribbed condom IMO.
So I'm noticing my case is a slightly deformed down at the bottom but otherwise it fits very nicely.
Wow, that clear Magpul on the Gold 5s looks like piss-yellow.
What color is your piss? Because when I think of piss I don't think of that color at all.

See a doctor if that is your colour
That's where there's a little bump or indentation on all cases... from how they're made. Hard to tell what yours looks like from the blurry photo.
Yes, totally normal. Thats where the plastic gets injected and mine has the same mark in the same place.

Ditto.
On an unrelated note, I received my two 6 ft. Lightning cables today from Monoprice and they work with this case. The fit is snug, but no worries on that.

I had a tough time reading the review on Tapatalk. Does anyone know if 3rd party lightning cables work with this case? I have a belkin which is only slightly larger but doesn't for a couple of case (ironically the Belkin Sheer Candy and Lifeproof). Thanks!!

It should. I have a couple Monoprice 6' cables which are relativity thick on the Lightning end and they are snug but fit.

Nice, still waiting for mine to arrive.
Not sure about Belkin, let us know if it fits the Magpul when you get it.
I am 100% on Monoprice cables however, link below

just got my 2 cases. so happy i went with them. flat dark earth is awesome. though i would use the black more. but i really like FDE and so far black is still in the box.
fit is absolutely perfect. no sag anywhere and cut outs are perfect. button response is also excellent. this is all a case should be at a price it should be! I'm tired of spending 30 dollars for a piece of plastic worth 1 dollar.
anyway if your thinking of getting one, i wouldn't hesitate. truly a nice case

Nice, show us photos! I want to get FDE eventually. Wonder how it looks on a black iPhone!
