Who the Spigen Liquid Air Case for iPhone 15 Pro Max is for

Buy it if: Anyone wanting slim protection with good grip and no yellowing.

Avoid it if: Anyone using MagSafe accessories -- there are no magnets, so mounts and wallets will not hold.

Who the PopSockets Phone Grip with MagSafe Magnetic Base is for

Buy it if: iPhone 12 or later users, or anyone with a genuine MagSafe case, who wants a removable grip.

Avoid it if: Anyone with a plain case, and anyone wanting a car mount -- the hold is not sufficient over rough roads.
