Mine is supposed to arrive on Monday.

which phone and color do you have?

wanting to see how that case looks with the blue mini/regular 12.

i have the navy now but it's almost too dull against the blue of the phone.

I’ve actually got the graphite 12 PM, so unfortunately I’m afraid my combination won’t be what you’re wanting to see. Sorry.

Next week the Pitaka blue MagEZ case will be shipped out.
Pitaka send me a gift for the delay. I received a MagEZ mount for in the car.
For me stil the best case................

I’m surprised more 3rd party cases don’t have MagSafe. It looks like basically only Otterbox right now? I really like my Spigen Ultra Hybrid, but I want the wallet and it would be nice to have the extra magnets of MagSafe.

Pelican Shield G10 showed up today. First con symmetrical cutouts ? second con charge port opening is one tight mother. Rocker switch door is also very tiny and hard to operate.
Otherwise the tank is a decent case and turns your Pro Max into the SUPER MAX Case is HUGE, the G10 is of nice quality, sides a little slippery as they are hard plastic. Like last years Shield the phones edges are surrounded by a soft silicone border that will keep the sides and back scratch free. Buttons work perfect and have nice tactile feedback. Case fits perfect with my case friendly glass screen protector. No saggy bottom on this one.

They changed the 3 latch system to use the power, volume buttons and charge port for the latches. Last years latches were better IMO. I believe the phone will be 100% safe in this case for drops and other mishaps.
Those symmetrical cutouts though ? Here are some pics.

Labilus Rugged Shield TPU Thick Solid Armor Tactical Protective Case... this Magpul copy arrived for my Mini. Comparison photos are an authentic Magpul Filed Case on an iPhone 8 without a screen protector.

The Rugged Shield (RS) is not as thick as the Magpul. Lip protection on RS is not as deep as it is on the Magpul, and there's a sharp edge on the inside of lip of the RS vs a smooth transition on the Magpul. The ribs relief and the surface detailing on the RS is not as pronounced as it is on the Magpul, not at same level of quality. The RS buttons are of a slightly different design than those on the Magpul but pretty close overall in feel. The port holes are all the correct size and properly aligned. The camera cutout a little bigger than it needs to be, the angled surround is shiny vs the matte finish it should be seen on the Magpul... easily remedied but again speaks to quality of the detailing. The RS lays flat on its back on a flat surface, no wobble. The case does not interfere with the installed ESR screen protector.

Hopefully Magpul rejoins the iPhone Case race as I'll happily ditch the RS for the real deal. In the meantime I may have to settle for the fake, as I'm a big fan of Magpul's design even if poorly executed.

*the chalky white cast on the older Magpul case is from hundreds of alcohol cleanings, it's easily fixed

Nice, I need to order one of these.

If you Google for "Rugged Shield" you might find one a little cheaper than on Amazon.

Wow did you do expedited shipping? That thing looks like a tank. You think you will keep it? Mine not due until Friday. Any signal loss with that case on?

I returned the UAG by the way.

Emailed them about their same day shipping if ordered before 2PM EST Mine was sitting around for 2 days and did not move. The girl said she would bump me to 2nd day air being it took them 2 days just to process my order. Thing showed up by UPS today. It's a MONSTER I believe the Apple Leather case would fit inside of this monster.
No 5G around here but the 4G LTE seems fine.
I have a feeling you will be returning it?

Guess I should have emailed them about that lol. But I ordered late at night, so meh. That is cool that it is a monster. I don't have 5G either but it LTE is good then I should be fine. Heck LTE is weak at my house to so wifi is king.

I hope I won't but the fact that it is a monster and the charge point is tight, who knows. Lol.

Currently I have just 3 original Apple Cases with MagSafe for my graphite iPHone 12 Pro Max.

1) green Silicone
2) Baltic blue leather
3) black leather

Also have 2 MagSafe chargers with MagSafe Stand.

Kept at 2 separate places at home.

Fun and convenient using MagSafe.

Let us know what you think of the silicone. I’m tempted but happy with my Neo Hybrid at the moment. I should probably just stay away from this forum at this point.

 

[MCube74]

Silicone case is nice but I prefer the Apple leather case.

I just switch my cases ever 2 to 3 days so that I don’t get bored of the same look daily.

MagSafe Stand.

Do you happen to have a link to that stand?

It's a decent protective case but it is huge and heavy. The regular lightning cable fits but I don't think any third party cables will work. This thing makes the Defender seem thin. It's a fun case though.

I will check it out. I don't use heavy duty cases a lot but when I need one this looks to fit the bill. Do you think you will keep yours? Or would you rather have a Defender or something?

I am in Hong Kong and got it locally here.

You can check out the video here.

Really love this colour.
