Got the same. Awful thing. Slippery, big and buttons are to flush.

To each their own. I think it’s a nice case if someone is looking for extreme protection. I certainly prefer it to cases like the Mous Limitless and Otterbox Defender with their massive cutouts.

Personally I would think it’s ugly too bulky. I much prefer the clear Ultra Hybrid T but then I also prefer clear cases to solid colour ones too.

Function over form for me; I've rough hands and my hobbies aren't your average Joe's; plus with all the gardening I do and work on the cars etc; a chunkier, more sturdy case is needed

If only Otterbox would get their cases sorted and not have the stupid cut out etc

Why would I; I've already got the non-T case and it's been absolutely fine. More than grippy enough for me and does a good job of protecting the phone

I’m with you, I think it’s a nice case for what it is. In my opinion, it easily beats its direct competitors such as the OB Defender, Mous Limitless, UAG Monarch, Supcase UB, et al. It’s meaningless to compare it directly to minimalist cases that have little to no drop protection and are designed for a completely different use case. It’s like comparing a sports car to a 4 wheel drive pickup.

Just updating after a little while with the Beats case. I hate the stupid beats logo, but everything else about the case is flawless. Yes, this includes the open bottom. The case is tight to the phone so I’m not sure what a closed bottom would even do. Buttons are super responsive, click like the case isn’t on - and the sapphire button is a game changer. Don’t settle for cutouts. I am excited for third party sapphire leather cases in the future, but this is it for now. Cons? I guess it’s not a good case if you change often though, it really is tight.

What color do you have? I had the midnight black and it was a smudge/fingerprint magnet. I loved how the case felt though. Im thinking of getting summit stone to check if fingerprints will be less visible

I sent my UAG Monarch case back as it'd started to come apart and I'd only test fitted it once and popped it back in the drawer; unimpressed as I've always gone for their cases and didn't mind the cut out... At £75 UK Sterling, they're not cheap!

The Spigen case is spot on; suits my shovel like hands and I find it to be very grippy...

Otterbox is coming out with a case without the cut out, but they should have released it at launch not much later after the iPhone launch.

Not the person you quoted but I love my Beats case too. I have the Summit Stone color and it shows the least amount of fingerprints and smudges. The case feels so good in the hand - my theory is it is because the edges feel a bit more rounded than most cases so it doesn’t dig into your fingers as much. And it’s super lightweight.

I finally received this Darth Vader iPhone 16 Pro case by Casetify, and I really love the way it looks! The image of Darth Vader with his red lightsaber ignited, coupled with the 3D sketch of his helmet, are just so cool!

It's actually really great except the fingerprint part. Might end up getting the summit stone. It has the buttons that I wish the apple clear case had.

What; am I not able to add my own tuppenceworth because someone has already added theirs?!
Click to expand...
No one said you couldn't, very good, well taken pictures. Probably a good thrupenceworth.
It's just you announced its availability on Amazon UK which had been discussed recently.

Incidentally, how are you finding it? Grip ok? Does the stand work well?

It was via that Amazon UK link I bought it; it came from within the UK too and not the EU, as it first said... It changed on Friday etc

Grip is spot on; not slippery in the hands at all

And I don't use the stand, no need for it really but they all come with it unfortunately

I'm looking for a minimal iPhone 16 case to prevent wobbling on a desk due to the camera bump. That's approximately the thickness of 15 index cards / 3.5mm.

I really, really hate this gigantic camera bumping phone 🤬

That’s fair enough if it works for your use case if it helps protect the phone better. In my daily life it’s not something I need. 😃👍
