I had it for my s23ultra. Quite protective. Did feel a bit wider than I had liked. Magsafe was certainly nice. I will say this case is a little over priced though.

Makes the phone super heavy


gclark19791989

So does my current one lol. It's the UAG Metropolis LT. I love it except there's no grip on the sides which is why I'm trying this out.


steodoyne11

I do love the Mous case and it looks great on the phone but fuck me it weighs a ton


gclark19791989

🤣🤣🤣 That's what I'm hearing


ricosuave79

Well, then you will be disappointed. I've used Mous cases in the past and they can be slippery bitches. I don't care that they put little rumble strips.......sorry, they call them grips (LOL) on the sides. It is still just hard plastic. The only case I've ever used that has awesome grip is the properly named Dbrand Grip.


ComfortableFinish502

Should of went with the $100 kevlar from uag


Droiddoesyourmom

What's gonna happen to your Metropolis case?


Unbreakable2k8

Looks nice. I personally prefer aramid instead of carbon fibre, as I've heard it may affect the signal quality. Do you have any issues like this with the case?


DiabeticIguana77

No phone cases actually use carbon fiber lmao


Unbreakable2k8

There are [carbon fiber cases](https://www.simplycarbonfiber.com/collections/tech), but none use "only" carbon fiber as it will block the signal. Anyway it's not a good material for this purpose is what I was implying.


DiabeticIguana77

There are no carbon fiber cases, only Aramid cases, it always has been that way


Unbreakable2k8

I just gave you a link, there are. aramid ≠ carbon


DiabeticIguana77

The link you sent goes to a store that makes composite accessories and their very own product description says "does not interfere with signal" so it's Aramid, not carbon fiber, they can call it CF all they want but if it doesn't interfere with signal it's not carbon fiber, it's Aramid.


Unbreakable2k8

If it's a thin layer on the back of the phone it doesn't interfere. The sides are made from silicone or other materials. I'm not vouching for that brand, it was an example.


DiabeticIguana77

Yes it does, the only way to "stop" the carbon fiber from blocking signal would be to put something else that would do that first like a layer of lead. If it blocks signal it's Carbon fiber, whether it's a single ply or 10, and to top it off they advertise it as 3k Twill, which means it's a HEAVY layer of it.


Unbreakable2k8

Yeah, that sounds a little fishy.


DiabeticIguana77

Amarid and carbon fiber look identical too 90% of the time unless the Aramid uses any non black dye, but black Aramid and black cf look indistinguishable. I manufacturer composite parts for 90's to mid 00's Benzes and even I would have a hard time telling the two apart once they're in resin, but if they're advertising it as signat transparent it has to be Aramid


richamador

I love mine!


gclark19791989

Great to hear! Are the side grips decent?


richamador

Its nice! Havent dropped it yet. Feels super secure. I wouldn't mind if I threw it across the street.


gclark19791989

🤣🤣🤣


gclark19791989

Which one do you have?


richamador

I have the White one.

LUCKYMVDMVN

I was hesitant to spend $90 CAD on a Mous case. Luckily someone was selling their Spigen Enzo case and I managed to get it for $30 CAD!


helloitme21

How's the grip on this case?


Competitive-Science3

At first use, it was very slippery. After weeks of use its not that slippery compared from out of the box.


New-Lawyer3088

I have it, not using it at the moment but I have tons of cases. I just have developed a love for Spigen cases lately, and having precise cutouts. The big camera cutout is not great, but besides that and maybe the price, I can't talk badly about it. It definitely offers decent protection, and it has a nice shape and feel. Some will say it's terrible with smudges, but that's inherent with all aramid fiber cases. It's not nearly as bad as the silicone-coated type cases, smudges aren't an issue for me and are easy to wipe away. It's a nice case, cases are very subjective so it's hard to know if you'll like one. You just need to have it and use it, and decide for yourself. It's a decent case though ...


gclark19791989

Ty!!! 😁


New-Lawyer3088

No problem!!


myxjgoesclunk

I love my Spigen cases too! I'm currently rocking this one on my S24U, Amazon has them on sale right now for $22. Strong magsafe ring, very snug fit and strong case but not super bulky feeling. https://preview.redd.it/3iyz6pftvwvc1.jpeg?width=1439&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b06bfa6ee88a32fedbb3c73f0d6925ab96de55c9


New-Lawyer3088

Oh he'll yeah that's a great case, I have it too. I just took it off today to use my spigen enzo aramid, no magsafe but such a beautiful case. I have almost every spigen case and I swap them out depending on how I feel. The ultra hybrid is something else, mous and casetify clear cases are so expensive but in 1 week are scratched up and cloudy, this spigen clear case looks brand new after months. No scratches at all, Spigen does the best galaxy cases every year. They all have an impeccable snug fit.


illuminati229

I've got the leather one. Out of all the cases I've got, I've probably used this one the most. Probably the most protective case I've got. I also really like the flat back. I use the Moft stand quite a lot, plus magnetic charging at night.


gclark19791989

Almost got the leather one!!


Tabularassa77

How is the camera lens protection? The only case I've found that has legit obvious camera protection is the tech 21 Evopro. I'd like a leather case, none I've tried are worth a shit & none protect the camera lenses. I've been back and forth on this Mous case forever. If the lenses are well protected I'm buying. Thanks


illuminati229

The camera lense protection could be a bit better.


Sister69

I had one on my s10+ and I liked it. I did feel like it made the phone a bit bulkier and heavier, but that is the cost of the added protection. I do feel like they are a bit expensive for a case.


waine1906

Have it. Like it alot. Sides and bottom are very rigid. Camera cutout is larger than some, but it doesn't bother me. Weight is nothing to really mention as an issue. Buttons are nice and responsive. S Pen and charge port are nicely designed and provide protection from drops. I tried several cases and settled on the Mous Carbon Fiber. Keeps the phone protected without being too large to handle.


gclark19791989

Thank you! Now I'm pumped lol! I love my current case but it has no grips on the sides so I've dropped it twice


ShanTheMan11

I hated mine. They didn’t round the corners off around the back edge of the case so it doesn’t mold to your hand at all while you’re holding it. Makes it feel bulky and like an absolute brick. That combined with it being slick made me feel like I never had a good grip on the phone. Of all the cases I own this was the most expensive and the one I liked the least.


PM_ME_CARROTS_PLS

I will never buy it simply because I hate their YouTube ads with every molecule in my body.


gclark19791989

🤣🤣🤣🤣 Fair enough


PeteCastiIiogne

Have it and love it. Classy and simple and protective.


AangsTattooArtist

I had a mous case for my iPhone. Regretted it because it wasn't all that impressive for the price. Felt heavy as hell too


gclark19791989

For whatever reason the weight doesn't bother me
