Just got a 14 pro and wondering if which case to get. Had Mous cases on my 11 and loved them but kinda been looking at OtterBox. Might stick with Mous but figured I’d put the question out there
Is a Casetify Impact case as protective as a Mous case for iPhone?
Mous Limitless 4.0 Review (and comparisons with Otterbox Symmetry+)
So in case anyone is interested, here’s my review of the new MagSafe compatible Limitless 4.0 case from Mouse.
I’ve used the Otterbox Symmetry cases with my last few phones and decided to go for the Symmetry+ for my 12 Pro Max but was curious about Mous cases because everyone is always raving about them.
Decided to order the new Limitless 4.0 with the walnut finish and, whilst it’s a nice case, I’ll be returning it and sticking with the Otterbox for now.
First, it’s just beautiful, no discussion, the walnut back looks extremely smart and just sexy.
However, the biggest downfall for me is how freaking slippery it is. The side offer almost no grip and I could see this slipping out of my hands continuously. This is extremely disappointing as it kills the usefulness of the case for me and it’s the dealbreaker.
Another thing that disappointed me is that the actual case looks different than how it’s pictured on the Mous website. The pictures online show a completely flush/flat back. But the real case has a noticeable raised frame or “camera bump” so it doesn’t lay flat how I was expecting. Good to keep in mind if this is a feature anyone was after.
Apart from that, the magnets in the back actually feel stronger than the Otterbox so that’s a plus for Mous. The volume and power buttons are also more clicky and responsive on the Limitless.
Overall I’ll be sticking with my Symmetry+ which offers considerable more grip overall and in my opinion a bit more protection too.
I’m disappointed because I thought the Mous was going to be the perfect combo of sexiness and protection. If they ever add more grip to those side I’ll be sure to check them out again but at the moment (and specially for the price) I’d say skip it.
Hope this helps anyone out there.
Totally agree, I send mine back. Way to slippery!
I just got my Mous 4.0 Aramid Fibre case yesterday. I too came from Otterbox Symmetry case when I was on my XS Max and bought Mous 3.0 Aramid Fibre case and never looked back, Otterbox quality is not comparable. Rubbers started falling off, buttons are not clicky.. and in my case more slippery. That's why I hate how expensive Otterbox but not even as good as Mous. But I just bought the Aramid Fibre case, I don't have experience with their Walnut case, so it might be a different story.
If you can maybe try their Aramid and it might change your mind. Otterbox Symmetry (XS Max) is definitely slippier than Mous 3.0 Aramid Fibre case (XS Max).
Also can't stand the white box card thingy on the Otterbox case where they put the magnet. It's just sloppy work and not worth in my opinion, where as the Mous you can't even see it. But that's just me being picky.
Hi! Trying to decide between the Nomad Rugged, Mous Limitless 5.0, and Casetify bounce. Would love to hear input from people who own one for the three. Thanks :)
