So what’s the best Carbon/Aramid Fiber case for the iPhone 15? I tested 8 cases that I considered Carbon/Aramid fiber first and here’s my Top 5!

In general, the cases I based this list on are ones that were Carbon/Aramid Fiber focused rather than iPhone case focused. There are lots of companies that have cases with Carbon/Aramid fiber finishes but very few will make the entire case out of them.

Here’s the Top 5 with Amazon links:

Pitaka MagEz Pro - https://mreh.ca/3tQVWKq
Pitaka MagEz Case 4 - https://mreh.ca/3HCTNFH
Benks Magnetic case with 600D Kevlar - https://mreh.ca/3vsOHc0
Spigen Enzo Matte Black - https://mreh.ca/3U5cI3n
LaterCase Cyber Edition - https://mreh.ca/3U0mzr0

LaterCase Cyber Edition
-one of the thinnest and lightest cases out there
-case is apparently made from Kevlar
-standout feature for me is the precision formed camera area
-I’ll note that on some designs, the aramid fiber will stretch and distort making it look odd
-iPhone access is excellent
-case is easy to remove
-low edges
-MagSafe functionality isn’t built into the case so the connection between the iPhone and accessory is really weak.
Spigen Enzo Matte Black
-For me, this is the baseline for CF cases
-basically a thin case with a piece of aramid on the back
-accents are too shiny
-your iphone sits on a comfy bed of microfiber for scratch protection
-additional protection offered by air pockets in the corners
-the case edges are quite loose so I’d be apprehensive about dropping it face first
-the one feature that keeps this case from the top 3?
-the finish is too slick so it feels like your iPhone is going to slide out of your hand all the time.
Benks Magnetic Case with Kevlar 600D
-The Benks Magnetic case, made with 600D Kevlar, is excellent.
-It features real Kevlar on the back.
-The case has high-quality buttons.
-The action button on iPhone Pro models is distinct, making it stand out.
-The camera area is protected by a metallic lip, which feels superior compared to other Aramid fiber cases.
-The case's texture is decent and not as slippery as the Enzo.
-The Kevlar fibers are slightly noticeable to the touch.
-While the case edges are shallow, potentially risky for face-down drops, their rigidity can reduce impact damage.
-A unique aspect of the Benks case is the additional Aramid fiber layer inside.
-This inner layer makes the case unique, though a microfiber lining might be preferable to avoid back scratches.

Pitaka MagEZ Case 4
-The Pitaka MagEZ 4 is the thinnest case compatible with Magsafe.
-It's an improved version of the Latercase.
-Pitaka uses 1500D aramid fibers in some cases, providing more texture.
-These cases are available in various colors; the star peak version has an exceptionally good feel.
-Another version, the fusion weaving case, has less texture but still performs better than Spigen and Benks cases.
-The case offers easy access to the iPhone without obstructions.
-Like the Latercase, it has shallow edges.
-In terms of protection, the 1500D aramid fiber makes it more impact-resistant than 600D cases, but it's only 0.6mm thick, so a severe drop might still cause damage.
-The main downside is its price; it costs around $70, which is quite expensive.

Pitaka MagEZ Pro
-First of all, this MagEZ pro looks awesome
-with the cutout area, Pitaka went with a ½ metallic, ½ plastic design as the outer edge is plastic and the inner is metallic
-this helps keep the phone from sliding around on it’s back BUT the inside of the ring is a bit sharp
-iPhone access is top notch, had no issues
-edges of the case are quite rigid and are high enough for a screen protector
-standout feature of this case is the aramid finish wrapping around the case edge
-nobody else does that

MonoCarbon Carbon Fiber Case
-If MagSafe wasn’t a thing, this would have taken the place of the Latercase in this video
-nothing special about the product
Memumi Real Aramid Fiber
-disliked the design
-corners have been cut to ensure the case can be installed
-makes this relatively expensive product look really cheap
-not MagSafe compatible
Simple Carbon Fiber Classic Series
-the case that the Carbon Fiber is glued to is incredibly cheap
-way overpriced product
-poor build quality
-finish on the case scratches way to easily
