Stuck some clear skin on the inside of Sheath Metal buttons. Little DIY.
Yea BBC News were reporting on it in UK. They got hit pretty hard. I hope All are ok.

just received the Caseology Parallax.
Literally just received and opened a Caseology Parrellax. Great texture. No lining inside the case. I didn't even try it on the phone.
I’m alive, just no electricity or internet, been out all day running the damn chainsaw 😩 That hurricane was really bad. Could be without electricity or internet for a week or more
It looked bad, we are lucky in south Florida
Returned my white Speck Candyshell after it started to discolor after a week of usage, and I went for the ultramarine official Apple silicone case! Looks stunning with the black iPhone 16 Pro!
Has anyone gotten their Suti Phoneback preorders shipped yet? 25 Sept has come and gone but I haven’t heard anything about my order.
All colors of Caudabe Paragon will be here either money or Tuesday.
Ordered the Spigen Ultra Hybrid T MagFit with the Spigen GlasTR EZ FIT Tempered Glass Screen Protector, after watching a @TechnicallyTee review.
Usually I go completely naked so this is all new for me, I hope this setup won’t annoy me…

Tee, you said the dbrand Grip was being re-engineered with a capacitive button. Is there a timeline for this?
Are the Pitaka (not the thicker armor ones) noticeably thinner and lighter than the Apple silicones? I like the silicone over the ESR+stand so it will be between the Pitakas in the final showdown.
The Pitaka weighs around 20 grams, the Apple Silicone is around 35 grams. Of course, the Apple provides significantly more protection.
I’ve purchased three cases so far for my 16 Pro.
The first one was the Spigen Ultra Hybrid Magfit with the frosted rear and camera control cutout. I liked the frosted feel and it helps hide fingerprints but really didn’t like how the ridge around the front part of the camera control made it very difficult to use so I’ll be returning it.
The second one I purchased was the Supcase in gray which also has the capacitive button. I found it worked fairly well but the sides of the case are a bit slippery and the glossy back attracts fingerprints and oil. I’ll probably still keep it though.
The third one and so far my favourite is the Spigen Ultra Hybrid T Magfit with their camera control button. It isn’t as slippery as the Supcase, and while it has a clear back, it doesn’t seem to attract fingerprints as easily. The camera control feels nice as well. Hopefully it doesn’t yellow over time.

Not 100% sure but roughly sometime in October. I’ll report back when I have a date.
Spigen has updated the Tough Armor T AI with the Camera Camera control (rather than a cut out)

By the looks of things Spigen is working on transitioning its whole case lineup to a native camera control rather than a cut out.

Both the Tough Armor T and the Ultra Hybrid T were introduced at launch. Are there others that have been introduced since then that would indicate a wider implementation of the CC cover?

Kinda wish they’d make the button flush with the frame if they were gonna do it this way. Just make whatever is in between their button and the camera control longerSpigen has updated the Tough Armor T AI with the Camera Camera control (rather than a cut out)

My goodness this is stunning. Have this on my natty titanium. Reminds me of product red in how saturated this color is. Cheers.
Has anyone ordered from Benks directly the last couple of days? How long does it take for them to ship your order?
