Latercase 2023 Review - It Has One Fatal Flaw...

I finally bought more stuff from Latercase. The last time I did, 1/2 my order didn't show up BUT since I'm trying to figure out what the best Carbon Fiber case is, I figure I give this brand another go. Am I impressed? Nope.
There is one flaw with this product that holds it back. Sure it's incredible thin but at what point does being the thinnest case while negating one of the most important iPhone features mean anything?

  • From my understanding, those slits on the corners are deliberately done on thin, "plasticky" (aka not TPU) cases to allow them to flex and move as not not crack the material.

  • Honestly I'm still a big fan of the Latercase, but I'm not buying one this cycle as my MagSafe needs have changed. I used latercase with my 13/14 Pro phones and was very pleased, I loved the integrated camera protection, and I do prefer how latercase does the fiber wrapping. I wasn't too mad about the "MagSafe compatible" claims as it works fine to pick up charger magnets and it even worked fine with my car mounts unless you yolo'd a speed bump. The protection it offers is enough for daily usage, and I've dropped my phones plenty of times from waist height (and my samples did have enough corner protrusion to slightly elevate above my Amfilm screen protectors). Now I started using popsockets and you really need an integrated magnet for that. I didn't think that cases like the Mag EZ 4 or Mous Super thin were minimal enough to justify using them over a "normal case", but I ordered the MagEZ5 as soon as it was announced.

    • @@mohelmer6334 Basically if you pay him enough money, he will “review” (advertise) your product no matter how scammy. The Escobar Phone scam was borderline illegal. His Latercase is a cheap clone of Pitaka. He denied it, but it turned out the day before releasing his case, he deleted his previous videos that included Pitaka cases. He also tried to copyright strike other videos that exposed his actions.

  • I've been using that case and didn't even realize it didn't have magnets. It's performed quite well. I normally use Pitaka (that has magnets), and saw no difference between the two as far as adhering to magsafe chargers and holders. Had I seen this video, I probably would not have bought the case, but since I've had it for a couple of weeks and been using it when I saw this video, I can credibly disagree that the case should be avoided. It's a nice Pitaka alternative that has performed well.

  • It could be that Latercase is trying to avoid the cost of having to retool the case design since it cost a lot for the factory to retool a new design and incorporate magsafe. To make their lives easier and also make a lot of money while they are at it, is buy a magsafe/magnetic ring that’s about $2(could be as low as a few cents for large orders) and sell it for 5x the amount. The maglock ring is such a bad idea since it creates a bump on the back that makes it annoying to use. They should have made a solution like what pitaka uses and mold the magnetic ring inside the case.

  • An ultra thin aramid case can’t expand. If it covers the buttons, it must have cuts that allow the sides to separate slightly when you put it on. If it doesn’t cover the buttons, then the button gaps act as the cut. After the questionable thing Lew did, I unsubscribed from him and forever refuse to buy his Latercase.
