Looking for a case… (alien.top)

Hey guys! Just got the iPhone 15 Pro Max. I have a temporary otterbox clear case on it, just so I don’t run around with it naked. I need a case, with mounting options. So there’s Mous, Rokform, Quadlock and Peak Design that seem to be the best ones. I’ve had good experiences with Rokform. Had it on my old iPhone 6 Plus, and also on my 13 Pro Max. The mount I need the most is the magnet one, which lets you attach the phone to any metal surface. It doesn’t seem like I have any options other than Rokform for this. Searching for it is stupid because anything “magnet” brings up MagSafe. Which is obviously not what I’m looking for. I do also need it to work with MagSafe though. I want to go with peak design cuz it looks the best and I like the other mounts, but it’s scarcely available in the UK, and it doesn’t look like it has the magnetic option I’m looking for. Help?

Right, so.
I just received my quadlock case and the arm strap mount.

I LOVE IT, very secure, not too bulky, arm strap is great. WIN.

But...

The case does NOT stick to metal surfaces like the customer service agent I talked to said it does.
The only solution for this apparently, is the Rokform case.

However I can't switch to that, because they don't offer the armband mount.
I need BOTH functions in one case! What do I do now?
Lol.

I also like the Rokform products, that’s what I would go with if I were you. Super strong/solid magnet and it still allows you to use MagSafe accessories if you so choose. Plus some cases make it really hard to press the buttons on the sides of the phone and Rokform isn’t like that.
