Paradigm® Pro Heat Regulating Case for iPhone 15 Pro Max

I have been using bodygaurdz phone cases for many years on multiple phones They have always provided good protection We had a Mous clear case on an iPhone Xr which allowed for back glass to shatter from a 20” fall off a park bench , but all our phones with the clear cases from bodygaurdz never had any issues

Why the back story? I expect continued protection from these more reasonably priced cases so I decided to get this case of the add ons. I no longer have to add my magnetic holder / stand to the back of my case, since it already has a kickstand. This leaves room for my mag wallet. The buttons seem to work for all functions as well as when the phone is out of the case. I have not noticed the phone heating up - I guess the vents work as designed I am not sure about the sound difference with the speaker redirections ( the 17 pro seems much quieter than my old 14 pro)

What I don’t love : not many color choices - just got basic black; wish the sides were a little more textured ( it is not slippery, but does not feel as secure as previous ACE Pro models ). The kickstand protrudes out a little so my mag wallet bumps into it. It is much thicker that my previous case , likely due to the ventilated back

Overall , the screen protector and case together seem like a good deal for the features
