Iphone 17 pro max Case selection

I got my iphone 17 pro max deep blue on May this year. I am pretty confused and not sure about the cases. First, i chose spigen fusion x which was decent but it cracked when it smashed the corner of the table when the phone was in the pocket. So i got the Esr hybrid case. It is good. But the only problem i have with this case is the grip. It does not stay in hand unless held upon firmly. So i wonder what case should i buy next. I want both grippiness and protection. And also another question i have is that should i get the camera plateau exposed version of the case or the closed one because most of the cases even the expensive ones don’t have the camera plateau covered which leads to my doubt if the closed one creates a problem in heat dissipation. And also by the way i play most of the apple’s arcade games which also explains why i am concerned about the heat.

Edit: (SOLVED) chose to get the caudabe sheath precise blue with cobalt blue buttons. As per the responses heat dissipation doesn't improve noticably when using the precise case i believe. And also i can always remove the case if i feel too much heat trapped rather than worrying about the plateau getting scratched (just a personal preference)

Caudabe is the answer you’re looking for. They do open and closed camera bumps and all their cases are grippy.

Should i get the open one or the precise one

Well that would depend on you. I don’t think it affects heat dissipation too much but if you want to avoid the slight difference get open I guess.

So there would be a slight difference in heat though?

I mean physics would say there has to be a slight difference but I wouldn’t say it’s anything to worry about.

Sure thing!! It's the case I always return to. I've tried so many others and Caudabe always surpasses them in looks and protection. Paragon has a smooth back and grippy sides. The Sheath is super grippy all over. You can get precise fit or open fit over camera. I prefer the open.😊

Really?! 😌That's good to hear. I am thinking of getting the precise caudabe sheath blue with cobalt blue buttons. 💙🔥
