iPhone 15 Pro Max Case (FC1240) Review: Liquid Silicone Protection Tested

The iPhone 15 Pro Max is a premium device, and deserves premium protection. Enter the FC1240 case, a liquid silicone offering promising a comfortable grip, anti-scratch protection, and seamless wireless charging compatibility. After several weeks of rigorous testing, I’m ready to share my honest thoughts on this case designed specifically for the iPhone 15 Pro Max.

The FC1240 boasts several key features that set it apart. The liquid silicone material is incredibly soft to the touch, providing a comfortable and secure grip. The claimed 1.44mm screen lip protection and 1.1mm camera lip protection against scratches and drops were certainly noticeable in my testing. The anti-fingerprint coating is also a welcome addition, keeping the case looking clean and polished.

Ease of installation is a big plus; the flexible silicone makes it a snap to put on and take off without any fear of scratching the phone. The thin profile, touted as just 2mm thick, ensures it doesn’t add unnecessary bulk to the already substantial device, and importantly, it doesn’t interfere with wireless charging. The “evenly exposing the metal edges” design, while a small detail, contributed to a nice, clean look.

During my testing, I subjected the FC1240 to a variety of scenarios, including accidental drops onto hardwood floors and everyday wear and tear. The case performed admirably, protecting my iPhone from minor impacts and scratches. The raised edges provided excellent screen and camera protection as advertised. The claimed anti-fingerprint coating proved effective, though it’s not entirely immune to fingerprints – some smudges are inevitable with prolonged use. Wireless charging worked flawlessly with the case installed, without any noticeable reduction in charging speed.

The soft silicone material offered excellent grip, even with sweaty hands. It proved to be surprisingly durable, showing no signs of wear or tear after several weeks of daily use. Cleaning the case was easy; simply wiping it down with a damp cloth restored its pristine condition.

Pros:

  • Soft, comfortable grip
  • Excellent protection against scratches and minor drops
  • Raised edges for screen and camera protection
  • Easy to install and remove
  • Supports wireless charging
  • Slim profile
  • Effective anti-fingerprint coating
  • Easy to clean

Cons:

  • While durable, it might not withstand extremely hard drops.
  • The anti-fingerprint coating isn’t perfect – some smudges remain.

The FC1240 case for the iPhone 15 Pro Max provides a compelling combination of protection, comfort, and style. The liquid silicone material is a pleasure to hold, and the level of protection offered is more than sufficient for everyday use. While it may not be the most rugged case on the market, its balance of protection and slim profile makes it an excellent choice for users who value both style and functionality. I would wholeheartedly recommend the FC1240 case for anyone looking for a reliable and comfortable case for their iPhone 15 Pro Max.
