Mous case, is it any good?

No such thing.
Do you feel the lip? Yes. Does it cause any issues at all with any phone experience? No.
I’m not sure how far down they think they have to swipe up from, but it doesn’t require the very bottom. And even then, no problem.
For the Alliance.
Just got the mous case a few weeks ago and loving it. the back is abit slippery at times esp if u put it on a smooth surface so do be cautious. only concern is that the side covering the buttons seems to have abit of play.
I am looking to buy the Mous Limitless 2.0, however what concerns me is the cut outs for the speakers and lightning ports. I find them to be too big and am afraid that in the long run this would cause scratches on the stainless steel in those areas. Have you guys had any problems with the cut outs?
I bought one and I thought it was quite a slippery design and I just didn’t feel like I could trust it for a hard fall with my iPhone X
I don't know about the rest of you out there but when I first opened the box I was NOT impressed. I thought to myself what a POS. I decided before returning it I would try it out. Once I put it on and started using the phone I LOVED IT! It was so much slimmer and comfortable than the one I was using (can't remember the brand). The lowered bevel edge made the screen usage around the edges much more reactive. I have dropped the phone many many times and not a single scratch on the phone at all. One strange thing has started happening though. That is how I ended up on this page. The material is discoloring but only on the one half. Check out the photos. Now you may be thinking its dirt or something but it's not. I think it may be a reaction from the phone warming up. Notice it is only on the half that holds the phone. Perhaps the bamboo is acting like a heat sink. Has this happened to anyone else? I have only had this case a few months.

How is the front bezel on this case ? Is it tall enough to keep the screen from touching the table even with a tempered glass screen protector?
The case is absolutely teriffic. My only concern is using the phone with one hand will cause your pinky to hurt quite a bit due to the pattern of the case on the bottom. Absolutely love it but i wish it was a bit tinner.

[doublepost=1543878980][/doublepost]Has anyone experienced scratches on the back of the phone? I have not seen any yet but I have had the phone only for a month. I am wondering how it holds up long term wise.

It is a really cool design where only the fron and bottom bumpers are raised while the sides are pretty low, allowing you to have a great protection while also slim design. If you lay it on the table it will not touch the display, at least with the screen protector provided by Mouse.

My XS survived a hard drop from about 5.5 feet in the Mous, so I feel like I got my money’s worth.
I was carrying my son and trying to take some video, when he yanked my arm down. It basically caused me to “throw” the phone face-down onto gravelly concrete.
Based on the sound of the drop, I was sure the screen shattered. But thankfully the XS came through without a scratch.

The leather doesn’t offer much grip. I’d say it has about as much grip as a brand new Apple leather case. I’ve had the case for about 2 months and haven’t noticed much increase in grip.
I have had my mous case for 3 months already and I still have the same screen protector because it hasn’t cracked. Overall the case is
Pretty
Very protective
Slim
The only problem would be when you hit the screen with something because I once accidentally hit it with my charger and it cracked a little then it fell on cement and it cracked. So i would say it’s a good protector and now I bought a mous add on which is like a wallet or something and it covers the screen. Now it’s I would say 99% protected
Thanks Mous

Yes but they are slimmer than say an otterbox.
For me it doesn’t seem to ad much bulk. I don’t like bulky cases and have mostly used Apple Leather Cases. I have the Mous 4.0 on my 13 Pro Max.
I can say the carbon fiber style case is very slippery. I exchanged it for a Speckled Fabric style.
Ive had mine a year. Still looks really good. I had one small fray and I used a lighter to burn it off. Still looks great. Almost as good as new
I’ve purchased Limitless 5.0 MagSafe® Compatible Bamboo Phone Case, for iPhone 14.
It’s a great iPhone case in my opinion and it has real bamboo. Looking at the pictures, I thought it was a sticker. I’ve watched 3 video reviews on this case and no one mentioned that actual bamboo.
Fits great and secure in my hand.
I’m glad I bought it.

This is the one I have on my 14 and I absolutely love it. It’s very similar to the one I had on my 13 and it survived numerous drops on concrete. It’s not the thinnest or sleekest case but it will protect your phone.

I’ve been using a $20 slim Belkin case on my previous iPhone for 5 years. Drop it a hand full of times by accident on the ground and my iPhone had no damage.
Mous case is a huge upgrade in my limited experience with phone cases.
