Personally I think the Supcase Unicorn Beetle Mag deserves a spot over the Spigen Ultrahybrid T. The Spigen isn't bad per say but the Supcase does everything the prior does all while offering better protection AND a stand with the same minimal look.

Appreciate the comment. I didn’t personally consider the Supcase Beetle for this because I found the button doesn’t function as well as the other cases I mentioned. Love the build of it though!

Hello Jay. I have ordered two cases. I am not a case whore. I had the Phone Rebel Flax (aramid fiber) on my iPhone 13. Loved that case. I did not have any issues with dropping or banging my phone around. However, I just upgraded to my first pro-iPhone. The 16 Pro. It came with a bigger price tag than my iPhone 13 (regular). I went to Walmart and purchased a Speck Gemshell (sparkly black). It is ok. I don't use the camera control button often (yet). I almost prefer not having a camera control button as I would probably accidentally hit it. Anyway, I have a Smartish Gripmunk and a Phone Rebel Air2 on the way. I am worried about anything exposed (the Flex case was my first thought and I was worried the sides of my phone would get scratched...even though my iPhone 13 had no issues). I am more worried about drops (from the pocket, desk, or shoulder height). In your opinion, would you go with the Spigen or the Onyx over the Rebel Air2 and Gripmunk? I know I sound old, but this is the most I have spent on anything tech-related (including computers) but I don't want to have an Otterbox brick attached to my cool new phone. Thank you for the video and the information. These videos take a bit of time to make and I thank you for that. Cheers

I bought the Spigen Ultra Hybrid T but I have a problem with my wireless charger - when I have the case on it does not charge properly. The charger is a 3in1 Anker MagGo. I previously had an iPhone 13 pro with a Spigen MagSafe case and it worked flawlessly with the charger, but the combination of this case and 16 pro does not work. So it leads me to the conclusion it's the case fault, because if I take it off it charges just fine. Did you try it with different wireless chargers?

Just bought the 16 Pro Max and have been using the Spigen Ultra Hybrid T for about a week now. I absolutely love this case for a few reasons; I use MagSafe accessories and the magnets are super strong, it takes some force to get some accessories off. Unlike the Apple clear case, it’s protective near the changing port. Also can’t go wrong with the price, (Amazon Canada) sells for $17 (or $23 CAD)

Here we go again. Apple released a new iPhone Pro which it's just a little bigger or a little smaller than the previous model. Just enough to force everybody to buy a new case. And Apple claims to be committed to protect the planet! I don't think so. New cases mean more plastic, more trucks 🚚 in the road, paper packages 📦 etc. And then there is the person who pays extra for an iPhone Pro because he/she is very likely to use it as a working tool . This way, that customer is likely to use cages such as the Beastgrip cage so he/she will have to buy a new cage... More plastic, more metal, more trucks 🚚 in the road, paper packages 📦 etc. iPhone 14 Pro 147.5 mm x 71.5 mm x 7.85 mm iPhone 15 Pro 146.6 mm x 70.6 mm x 8.25 mm iPhone 16 Pro 149.6 mm x 71.5 mm x 8.25 mm I have iPhone 14 Pro. I was up for an upgrade so I've just ordered an iPhone 16 Pro. I will sell my 14 Pro and will use the money to buy a new Beastgrip cage, a. new Smallrig cage (the small one) , a new charger (this change to USB C is such a nuisance!) and lots of new cables. I hope I will be able to sell my two cages for iPhone 14 Pro otherwise it will be a waste of material. But, unlike Apple, I don't like to see waste and will never throw it in the bin if I can help. So , if I can't sell my cages then I will give them to someone despite the fact that I really can't afford to be Santa Claus. 🎅 As for the Apple case? Utter rubbish. It escapes me why anyone who has an iPhone Pro would use the Apple case because the case has no grip for a more stable shooting, is too light, it offers little if any protection. Most cases for iPhone 16 Pro protect the lenses much more than Apple's rubbish (but expensive) case . Apple case is just a fetish. 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎Stay away from it if you care at all about your expensive iPhone 16 Pro Anyway, this review adds to the variety of cases reviewed. Thanks for sharing 🤝

A lot of manufacturers are playing catchup and will add it - I can’t wait to make videos about all these cases and judge how well their button works. 😌 For now, I think having that button on a case is important, but also feel that the button isn’t very good at much more than being a camera launcher, so I’m ok to use and recommend cases with or without the button. That said, I have a video that covers 6 cases with the button, and another video recently about a new one that just came out. And, spoiler, in a top case video I have coming out soon the winner does have the button. 😇

Lately I’ve been looking for slightly larger slings and acquired several from aer city sling 2L, tomtoc 3.5L and HEX ranger mini sling. But I still go back to moment 2L. I think it just have all the right size & functionality for me.
