iPhone 16 Pro Case

Every Latercase is made with premium aramid fibers. They’re hand-laid by skilled craftsmen, precision-formed to fit your iPhone 16 Pro, then laser-cut to perfection. Latercase is easy to put on, easy to take off, and coated with a durable matte finish that's addictive to touch. Oh - and it's...

No MagSafe, zero drop protection like the ultra thin Pitakas and Benks. Feels good in the hand, nearly caseless.

Just got a Latercase and I gotta say I’m loving it! The MagSafe isn’t there like the other cases but it still works on my MagSafe stand. Super thin and so easy to take off. Unlike some of the other aramid cases (looking at you Benks lol).

Hmmm wonder if it’s better than G6 for more $.

Damn I hate this addiction.

Had the gen6 a week now and it’s best case of the year but some margin.

What I love the most is zero sharpness under my pinky anchoring phone. It’s so smooth all the way around. Just so premium. I will always try moar suggested here due to accute case addiction.
 
Anyone used ur.co.uk to trade in their iPhone. Are they reliable. Anyone had a good or bad experience with them. They’re currently offering £736.50 for a 512GB 15 Pro Max. 🤔

Is the Apple silicon a lint magnet or not?

Does it pick up micro particles you can see?

I like the feeling of it but silicon is such a turn off when it picks up mucho micro dust and lint particles.

Yeah it is. It’s easy enough to keep clean for me personally and I don’t think the dust is ever too much to bear or notice.

I work in tech so you can imagine I don’t see much dirt regardless. But microdust does come & go enough to be something noticeable on occasion.

  1. Caudabe Sheath with camera control button
  2. Phone Rebel Gen 6 with camera control button
  3. Mous Limitless 6 with camera control button
Oh wait, none of those exist. Here’s my revised list:
  1. Apple Silicone, black
  2. Apple Silicone, stone gray
  3. Apple Silicone, denim
(Sorry for being such a smart@ss).

So Apple silicon is your daily driver ?

I actually just got the speck grip case and I absolutely love the tight fit , no movement at all on any side .. I just cant get past the CC opening even though no movement on that spot either .
I think I’ll be sticking with -
  1. Apple Silicone, stone gray
  2. Apple Silicone, denim

Yeah, I’m in the Apple Silicone most of the time. I do switch it up with one of the thin Pitakas occasionally.

Same …I also would have loved to keep my gen 6 but that CC area is super weak ….

Every year I come full circle , start with apple cases and end up with apple cases towards the end just earlier this year lol

I think if you put Apple silicone in jeans pocket, you'll get a fair bit of lint. I wear Karimor walking trousers a lot so don't have lint problem much at all. It does blow off quite easy.
I do clean it regularly too, hand oil can show on edges after while, comes up like new with a damp lint free cloth.

I did the same thing last year, started with a FineWoven, went to other cases, then spent the last couple of months back in the FW. Though their cases aren’t perfect, Apple is pretty good at finding a nice balance between just enough protection and great form factor.
 
That back definitely looks shiny.

I had completely forgotten about Speck. I had a Candy Shell Grip case from them for my iPhone 6+ that I absolutely loved! Of course, this was before the whole CC opening issue.

I had forgotten about Speck, too. They used to be such a major player - what happened?

Has anybody heard any news regarding Pitaka’s fix for the screen lip issue? I thought they were giving it a higher lip to protect the screen.
Click to expand...
After returning first, I got updated version (returned that one too)
lip is slightly increased not much above screen protector) and part above camera control is still flimsy

It is not close to protection that was provide by iPhone 14 Pro case
sorry pictures are not clear
