Test of the iPhone X Pitaka MagCase case: ultra-thin, pleasant and magnetic

The iPhone X like the iPhone 8 is
Made with front and rear windows that are expensive to replace. He
These are therefore iPhone models that must absolutely be protected with a resident of the country
cockles, and there are many of them!

Today it is aPitaka brand cokethat the where a
was able to test, which has among other things the particularity of being very fine and preserving
the design of the iPhone X and XS.

It is a shell with a very simple appearance but whichcontains
actually some surprises
, to discover in photos below, with
our opinion

The case arrives well protected in pretty packaging which allows you to have a
exterior overview of protection:

It is accompanied by aglass protectionfor the screen
and achiffon:

This very thin, one-piece shell is made of100% of
fibre d’aramide
, the same material as that used… for the
bulletproof vests.

This is one of the thinnest and lightest shells available on the market.
market with athickness of 0.65 mmfor oneweight of
14 gr
. Only one color is offered, theblack/gray.

The feel of the shell isvery pleasantand above all he
grip your hand wellwhich prevents the iPhone from slipping
hands. Furthermore, the material used provides protectionresistant
with stripes
.

We find the same coating inside and outside of the
protection.

Installation is very easy, simply clip the iPhone into
protection, and it will perfectly match the curvatures of the iPhone
like a second skin.

The shell incorporates cutouts to provide free access to the various
buttons of the iPhone
the iPhone and its steel frame.

We notice that the lower part of the hulldoes not cover
l’iPhone
, which makes it possible not to disturb the user when he
performs the new gestures, while protecting the lower corners.

This absence of a lower edge also allows you to connect any type of
lightning cable or accessory regardless of its thickness at the level of the
prise.

On the back of the hull, we note a protruding part which comes out a little from the
shell and protects the dual photo sensor. This allows you to place the iPhone
on a table without the optics being in direct contact with it,
thus preventing scratches.

But this product, as we have said, hides a specificity!

The hull actually integratestwo thin metal platesWho
allow toattach it to a magnetic support, for example in
car.

Important: these metal plates are integrated so as not to
not block wireless charging, when the iPhone is placed on
aQi induction charging station

This is a very thin case that protects against scratches and grips
feels good in the hand, it hardly thickens the iPhone. On the other hand, given its finesse
it can protect against slight shocks but not against falls. She
intended for cautious users who do office work.

For clumsy or athletic users, it will be necessary to move towards a
shell that better protects against falls.

Verdict

Ultimately, a lightweight case that preserves the design and finesse of the iPhone
X, in addition the aramid fiber makes it non-slip and scratch resistant.
The glass protection that comes with protects the screen. We
also applauds the ability to easily hang the iPhone on
magnetic supports and that this does not interfere with wireless charging.
