I was waiting for this one! You answered all my concerns from ease of removal to sharpness. Also love that you were able to show both colorways. Both look great with that #TeamNatty
Tee, The newer version has an alignment magnet. I just got mine today. But the PITAKA branding is now a brighter gray/silver, and doesn't match the natty iPhone as close as the one your reviewed.
Your review got me hyped about the PITAKA Magez Case 5! The sleek design and the fact that it doesn't add bulk to the iPhone 15 Pro Max are exactly what I've been looking for. Can't wait to order one and experience the premium feel you showcased in the video. Kudos！
@@lakeshow1646 nice can’t wait to get mine. I noticed something the one I ordered has a MagSafe aligner magnet whereas the ones on reviews and Pitakas website it’s just the MagSafe ring. I wonder if they’ve updated it.
Tee could I recommend that you weight the cases with the MagSafe magnets facing up. Idk something in me just ASSUMES the magnets could miss with the weight.
It’s pretty simple… it makes it easier to swipe down to get to the Control Center or Notifications screen and of course access the port on the bottom and better sound easier to swipe up too
Rhinoshield and Andar have the perfect branding location in my opinion. No branding on the back but rather on the “grip” side. I think that’s the perfect location since it still has the brand but doesn’t take away from the “look” of the case back
Thanks for the video. Pitaka Sunset & Moonrise cases still have a chance to be produced for iPhone 14 Pro/Pro max & 523 Ultra users. ( Deposit of $9.9 credits as $19.9 If crowdfunding succeeds, only a $50 final payment is required (saving $10); If it fails, funds will be refunded and get an extra coupon ) I am still thinking if I should do it.
Please review the “memumi Magnetic Case for iPhone 15 Pro Carbon Fiber 2023”. It’s the best aramid fibre MagSafe case I’ve tried, and I’ve tried them all!
Thanks for the video again Tee, I’m really curious about this case. But I already got 2 of pitakas pro cases. I really want that sunset now too. Dammit Tee 😂
Just ordered Moonrise for 15 PM, I might go with Natural over Blue because I have Blue now and Natural just looks better with that Pitaka branding. I have the black logo on my current Fusion Weaving case but I like the new design better with the name printed.
I think it would have been great to see a direct comparison of this to the latercase. I went back to your previous video though and compared, an extra five grams and 0.09mm thickness for MagSafe seems well worth it. Just wish this had the LaterCase camera cover and it would be perfect. I had been patiently waiting on an Andar preorder for over a month but I might cancel and get this. I’ve used Pitaka Air and Latercase the last few cycles but finally got heavy into MagSafe with the popsocket sale a few months ago.
Would you pick this MagEz5 over the Latercase? In terms of grip, thinness, and comfort, would you say this version finally feels similar to Latercase? Putting MagSafe aside
@@TechnicallyTee I bought it but it would get Hot and charger pretty slow.. I am returning it today.it’s a cool idea but it’s not worth the 170 bucks.. what other ones you recommend besides the anker cube ?
To be honest I think all cases that are mostly exposed on all 4 sides look dreadful. It’s very poor and unbalanced design wise. These have great graphics and could look great instead it looks like someone stood on them and partly broke them. I got a super slim case from Nudient and it enclosed all 4 sides.
@@TechnicallyTee I just think the large cutout for the volume and action buttons on the left-side is at odds with the smaller cutout on the right side for the power button. Something small with no symmetry is poor design. Their full coverage cases are really nice though.
@@DeeDeeDanone I'm guessing you have never used a case like this with the sides and top and bottom out. If you had, you might like the feel of the buttons on the phone better than being in a case. Having the bottom cutout has another advantage - no blocking the charger port which allows any cable to connect and not be blocked. As for the "balance" - it is balanced having all four sides or even just the left and right sides exposed. To say the cutouts have to match each other is not important, it might be said it gives the phone more style like that.
Mine is 18-23… it’s the Fusion Weaving Case that came out in 2021. They are all 1500d… except the new ones are 600d and they are lighter plus the new Slimboard 2.0 and thinner case - 0.75mm
Benks is really nice… I wonder if it’s also made by Pitaka… they are both based in China. I ordered a Glass Warrior with mine. In fact they have an open design and pro design that looks exactly like the black grey twill. They closed off the top and bottom on the open minimalist design probably so we wouldn’t figure it out. Napa Leather on the inside too
I wanted to get one aswell till i saw that booty and top out. That’s why I’m going for a case to protect it. I wanted it slim but with protection up and down
Case looks awesome wish they would do something about the labelling tho. More like benks would be better, kind of ruins the aesthetic when it’s plastered like that on the back.
Not true… I use mine for work and have dropped it 40-50 times. Once from my hip in a construction zone and it shattered the screen protector but no damage to the phone or case. I broke another screen protector too but still the phone and case look brand new. If you do drop it usually it lands on the corners and doesn’t damage the phone. I have a 13 Pro Max and it’s 2 years old now (bought it in January 2022). Perfect condition and the Pitaka Fusion Weaving case (Rhapsody) is in perfect condition.
@@TechnicallyTee Is it only my Pitaka MagEZ Case 4 pro is not symmterical, means looking from top right it comes more towards screen as compared to the other side.
this case is the equivalent of putting on a condom with a big whole in it , it looks like you’re protected but you’re actually not, isn’t the purpose of a case to protect your phone 😅😅🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Had this case; upset with each side exposed, MagSafe magnets are very weak, and the price is absurd. It's really just the design that is good on it. Best alternative is BENKS 💯
Sounds like you’re upset with the design of the case. That’s something you should’ve known going into it. Pitaka are made to cater to a certain audience. Benks for sure is solid but you’re not getting any color variations and designs nowhere else.
@@TechnicallyTee I went in knowing for sure, but for that price I might as well just not even use a case. Returned it and went for Benks that's less than half the cost. If Pitaka would have just covered the side and had better magnets, easily would have kept it.
To much I sent my Milky Way back the MagSafe was so poor probably the worst on the market I am feeling spigen at the moment got frosted black for 17 pound the MagSafe is one of the best out there then the enzo got 29.99 on offer pitaka taking the piss Littel bit I have there pro 4 and the enzo better in my opinion what are they like 16.000 in rank selling cases even there car mount crap gave it my sister and kept my esr for half the price but 10 times better there product not worth it at all so they bring new case out make MagSafe bit stronger and charge 70 pound for it it’s laughable

Why do you have another key beside power button at the right side?
Its like an antenna for 5G band in USA regions

Does it fit the 14 pro max? I feel it could
Why do they leave the top and bottom so open?
Just the case design.

Yeah I agree I like the side branding and if it’s only the back, just do a small logo.
Pitika make some lovely cases not much protection tho but I still rock them nice one Tee 😎🇨🇮
@@marymadigan9707the magez pro is pretty decent. 💪 🇺🇸
I'm a fan of side branding. The Pitaka branding on the back is clearly too big. It ruins the beautiful design a bit.
Yeah side branding is the best imo.
I’m gonna have to cop one. I like the sunset with black titanium

1500D
I was praying it passed the mag shake test because it was looking like if it didn’t it would fly off and hit your logo. 😂

Yeah man if a case doesn’t have MagSafe then I can’t rock with it. Latercase just need to make the case slightly thicker and add MagSafe.
Would you pick this MagEz5 over the Latercase? In terms of grip, thinness, and comfort, would you say this version finally feels similar to Latercase? Putting MagSafe aside
They both are really comfortable honestly. I really like Latercase because I think it gives a little more grip
MagSafe shake test or meat beating test? 🤪
Hey man you never made a follow up video on the PITAKA MagEZ Slider 2. Any update on that?
I haven’t because I honestly not the biggest fan of it. Especially with the Anker Cube and 737 on the market for cheaper.

Magsafe is a dealbreaker, no alignment magnets .... as a heavy magsafe wallet user, just can't have that ....
This case would be a nobrainer for me if they didn’t have the Pitaka branding on the back. Like seriously wtf is up with that
Yeah branding will kind of mess up a case and if they want to add it, then cool or course but they just need to be a little more subtle.
If you have a white tape, you can cover it and it blends well, that’s what I did
Thanks for sharing your case review! Blessings on your day.
Thanks as always Jeff!

MagEZ Case 5
Latercase alternative officially is here. That price though is always gonna hurt.
Yeah but do they have the MagSafe built in the case because I’m not adding that ring to my cases.
Hey! Benks or Pitaka?
I like Pitaka because of the designs. Both are great though.
Benks for magnet
Benks is really nice… I wonder if it’s also made by Pitaka… they are both based in China. I ordered a Glass Warrior with mine.
In fact they have an open design and pro design that looks exactly like the black grey twill. They closed off the top and bottom on the open minimalist design probably so we wouldn’t figure it out.
Napa Leather on the inside too
The branding is for sure too much and too obvious
Yeah just a logo works better imo.
I wanted to get one aswell till i saw that booty and top out. That’s why I’m going for a case to protect it. I wanted it slim but with protection up and down
This case will make your screen protector problem.
Case looks awesome wish they would do something about the labelling tho. More like benks would be better, kind of ruins the aesthetic when it’s plastered like that on the back.
$70 for that case. Get out of here.
Why not make in pure black :(
Black/Grey twill
Dammit Tee…stop spending my money.
You know it watch me you’re going to have to keep that wallet out!
@@TechnicallyTee 🤣 yes, I know that.
Do you happen to know if the Sunset is 600D or 1500D? I like the feel of the 1500D much better.
so it doesn't protect the screen?
I’ve dropped mine on concrete with no visible damage after 2 years of use
What’s the point of the case if it doesn’t give you protection?
Everyone doesn’t need tons of protection.
@@TechnicallyTee but it doesn’t give any drop protection
Not true… I use mine for work and have dropped it 40-50 times. Once from my hip in a construction zone and it shattered the screen protector but no damage to the phone or case. I broke another screen protector too but still the phone and case look brand new.
