I bought the Pitaka Pro, hate it, wish I could return it. Got this Benks Air and absolutely love it. One of the best cases I’ve ever owned, finally get to feel the form of the phone itself not a bulky case, and have a mild sense of protection at least to avoid scratches and back glass breaking. Definitely needs a screen protector. The magnets are unbelievably strong for such a thin case. This is a winner.

I purchased this and was excited. My excitement faded fast.. 1st off the corners snag on threads when pulling out of my front pocket 2nd - because the case is thin and the camera bump is thick it doesn’t work well with my nomad base, same base in your video that you also had trouble with.

@@v3xxdd753with Pitaka MagEZ I get at least some raisivity from those corners so that glass does not touch the surface of the table. Now I only keep Pitaka Pro (seems to be best overall so far - I had nasty drops on concrete with its 13PM so I have confidence in it), Benks Pro (have not really tested it) and Rebel Gen 5 (which I'm currently rocking - love the grip but feels cheap and hollow due to a lot of bulk added by thick backplate). Maybe should get Synthesis this year as Tee seems to love it.

@@blackjack19811 Somehow I don't care about the looks at all, but MagEZ/Air give me the best feel in the hand. They don't add volume so the phone feels as a brick, substantial. It's such a shame they don't protect the phone from drops. I never actually dropped MagEZ or Air so no real life experience.

Touch and pay attention to the edges of the case (edges of the screen) on the Benks Armor Air, and then do the same with the MagEZ Case 4. Does the MagEZ feel better or am I crazy? I have both cases, and the Armor Air has sharper edges that aren't nearly as smooth and nice as the MagEZ. Also there's been a couple times with the Armor Air in the corners where the relief cutouts are a little sharp, and has gotten caught in my pockets. I also noticed that the Armor Air has slightly raised corner lips. You gotta really look but I swear the corners are raised a little bit. Anyway I've been sticking with the MagEZ mostly, it just feels a little smoother overall. Super nitpicky details but you know how it is!

I saw both of your videos with this case for 14 PM and 15 PM and i don't get it how the 14 PM Armor Air case could pick up the base and the 15 PM Armor Air could not.. it's a bit strange due the fact the case overall seems to be the same as last year with only minor changes to fit the 15 PM. I don't think the camera ring is the issue because is the same as last year.

Hi Tee! Cool video as always, congrats for doing such a good job. Step aside, I just received mine a few days ago for my 15 Pro but I’m a little bit concerned about the aluminum ring on the inside of the case. I was checking the case and I just notice my case doesn’t have the aluminum ring on the inside completely flush with the case, if I slide my finger on the inner side of the case I feel the ring is a little bit off and I can even see on the sideways this is happening. I’m not using the case and I’ll be writing to the support team of Benks for a replacement on this. Did you noticed the same on your case? I’m in love with the case but I’m not using it because I’m a little bit concerned by the fact that the inner part of the aluminum ring of the camera can scratch the back of my iPhone if I use this case. Apart from that issue, the case is amazingly think and comfortable, really had a nice experience with it. I’ll be looking for an exchange of it to solve the ring issue to fully enjoy my case.

Team Natty. I sold this case, I didn’t like the feel of it and it was too hard to get off my phone. I would have just returned it if I bought it from Amazon, but Benks wanted me to pay to ship it to China. The Pitaka Pro 4 is my everyday case for now. Great protection, like the feel in the hand and premium buttons. Minimal bulk added with a clean look.
