Yeah, I have to agree. If you want a sleek, understated, minimal case that fits perfectly, feels good in the hand, and has the best CC button that disappears when you’re not using it, this is it. Yeah, the lint is a thing, but it’s not bad once you learn to deal with it (blowers mainly, along with damp microfiber). They should last longer, but as others stated, if you rotate through 2-3 they get you through a year.
I still like the ultra-minimal designs (Arc and Pitaka mainly), but I keep going back to this one.
I told my Apple reps that came in that I expect a sky blue silicone case at the spring refresh
They didn’t give me an ETA on the SE but the se and the refresh will be the same time
Sure
These so called ‘reps’ know nothing 😂
Well figured it wouldn’t hurt to ask. They’re not the same ones you see in the Apple Store. They do our store visits.
Well, after 21 days with Arc Pulse Titanium Onyx Black, I can say that I'm very satisfied. As I mentioned before, that I found some scratches, no more comes up and the old ones is very hard to find. So titanium version is very durable.
Also the surface is still same as new. Very nice to use.
I still don't have any reason to change case or looking for another one.
But I saw here many Apple Silicon cases and you are very happy with it. What about Beats cases with CC button?

Stone Gray is a nice color. It probably shows the least amount of lint and grease, definitely less than the black.
The Beats is not bad, but it’s slippery if you have dry hands and it shows fingerprints like crazy.
Which color did you have? I am thinking the Summit white would show the least amount of fingerprints.
I had the Midnight Black and my wife had the Riptide Blue. The black is undoubtedly the worst of the bunch, and I agree, the Summit Stone is probably the best.
I haven’t had the Apple clear for a few years, but I assume so since they’re both made from gloss poly.
Come back to us DAWG!! The leather is calling!! I strayed away and tested the waters. Then Ryan London and Jun pulled me right back in. Just Reminded me how much I love it.
That is what I figured.
Hahaha oh that is exactly what I have on my phone right now. I just freaking hate the CC cutout. This case would be close to perfect if it was covered. I miss the Apple thinness so much too. Such a shame we are in state we are that Apple currently doesn't have a premium offering, and they added the CC button. It all made the case game a disaster.
I'm with ya brother. I went as far as you are about to do with the thinny thin just to eliminate the darn CC. I based that CC so much. Now back in open bottom leather all of the other things that I love about it almost make me have amnesia with that CC. Could be the 2 new Ryan London's (fresh start) I just received but I will not use another case this year.
It’s been a tough year. I ended up here:
Heavyweight: Spigen Tough Armor T AI
Mid-weight: Spigen Ultra Hybrid T
Lightweight: Apple Silicone
Super-lightweight: Pitaka Tactile Woven
Ultra-lightweight: Arc Pulse
I do like the Hybrid T pretty well, but not my everyday case.
There’s nothing sexy about it, but it’s a solid set-it-and-forget-it type of case. And it’s crazy cheap. Kind of a no-brainer for normal people who aren’t case obsessed (not this crowd).
100% agree with this! What a great way to put it. I use to never think about cases at all. Got the Apple leather case and forgot about it. Now I am still trying to find that "perfect" case for me. My wife thinks I am crazy.
Mine too. She pats me on the head and is thankful that it’s phone cases and not drugs, gambling, or fast cars. 😂
I loved it! Great case that I really enjoyed using. This is the first year in a while I tried anything but leather. It was fun to try and explore but I always come back to leather and this made me realize for me I will always use leather.
