What phone case and screen protector are you using on your iPhone 13 Pro Max?

I am using the Otterbox Defender Pro with a Zagg InvisibleShield Glass XTR tempered glass screen protector.
 


I really like the screen protector. It has black all around the edge and it only has a small cutout at the top for the ear piece.

ESR tempered glass screen protector, caseless, AppleCare+
I have AppleCare+ TL on all our iPhones, iPad Mini and MacBook. It's a great backstop to a protective case and screen protector. Your device is pristine when you trade it in at a higher resale value. A tempered glass screen protector helps protect micro scratches on a harder, more shatter resistant ceramic shield screen.

Not too worried about resale value tbh. I usually hold onto my phones for ~3-4 years and then just sell them on Marketplace (which gets be better returns than the Apple Canada Trade-In Program).

I used to be anti-screen protector, but after trying out the tempered glass ones I actually preferred the feel of it over the unprotected screen, and now I can toss my phone around and place it face down when I'm at coffee shops or restaurants. I do own the Apple leather case in Maroon which I use when I'm hiking/traveling and want the extra protection.

FYI. I meant to mention this yesterday. Anyone hoping to use their Otterbox Defender case for the iPhone 12 Pro Max, the camera cutout is slightly askew and the polycarbonate case is a slightly bit wonky. The version that I ordered from Best Buy fits great.
 
I started out with going between a Cyrill flower case, and the Spigen Ultra Hybrid clear MagSafe. Never use screen protectors. Then I got a MagSafe pop socket (custom print with my kitties on it lol) and it snaps onto the naked phone just as securely as it does on the MagSafe case, so now the phone is naked except the pop socket.

I do keep looking at the wisteria leather case though…
 
Annnnnnnnnnnd about two hours I’m after I said I keep looking at the wisteria, I ordered it, and now my custom kitties pop socket is MagSafed onto the back of a very pretty, purple leather Apple case.

No more cases after this. I stayed with 3 cases for the two years I had my 11PM and I used it naked for the last 9 months, I’m cutting myself off with the Cyrill, Spigen and Apple cases. Just three and that’s it.

I use a full body protector from Gadgetshieldz which is a self-healing protector, and I don't prefer a case because the 13 Pro Max itself is heavy for me to use.
 
iPhone 12 mini. Screen protector Spigen EZ fit, most of the time caseless. But I could have to change my mind about caseless because of my son that will born in January ?
