Got another one for everybody. Now, alot of people don't know this but Aulumu imo has a great if not the best series of real leather cases (JK it's vegan, still nice though) But their aramid fiber is extremely nice as well. There hasn't been a solid leather style case with a CC in a long time, if ever.

I already bought this case....the Aulumu A16 with CC and it's sexy (as well as their Ultra strap)View attachment 2470236View attachment 2470234View attachment 2470235
So, when I got the Aulumu A15 everyone was laughing at me here, for buying a $50 case that you could ‘easily find at a Walmart bin for 10 dollars’ and that it was just cheap plastic. Now the same case gets likes.

What changed?
 
Sal09, here are a couple pics of the inside buttons on that Benks case. Looks like there is a black film/coating on the insides.

The bad news and the good news. The bad being my new Süti had a small air gap at the upper right corner which created a little “click” sound when I touched the area or set the phone down on a table. The goods news is I emailed their support this morning and they got back to me in 10 minutes and shipped a replacement at no charge within an hour. Really quite exceptional customer service.
 
I just want a basic black leather case with a button instead of the cutout on the cheap one I bough off Amazon. Thing is, I update annually so buying an expensive case that I can't even resell after isn't worth it.

I still have a mint condition leather 15 Pro Max case just collecting dust. 77 views on Marketplace and no contact from anyone.
 
My Ryan London case with the new CC button has arrived. Here's some photos of the CC button (as you probably already know what the overall case looks like). This one is the dark leather metal option.
My quick test of the button is very positive. I think it may be more responsive than the Apple silicon case, or at the very least, no worse. EDIT: I will say though, that the other buttons stick out a lot more than the Apple case, which isn't welcome.

No one wants them, have had 2 15 max for sale for months for like 20% of new price.

Even took me an over month to sell 2 x 16 max silicone cases, gave them away for $20AUD each worth $79.
got one for free and other for $60 so lost $20 lol

Try the black nomad traditional, that's all I have now, has a cutout but doesnt worry me, great leather case.
 
Whats the verdict on Ryan London case?

Im having second thoughts about Benks lol.
Finally the first leather case with silicon button arrives, hurray and well done Ryan London for being first over Nomad!

Just ordered the BLACK metal one, coming via Royal Mail Tracked 48. (NB. Checkout 15%-off discount code: 15OFF ;-)

Will up more photos when arrives.

Love the colours! Can you take a pic or two with the phone in it? How does the camera control button feel?

Here you go. I wasn’t sure what color iPhone you wanted to see it on so here is the case on white, black and natural titanium. I do not own the desert titanium so I apologize. Do not judge me. Yes I have three different colored iPhone 16 Pro maxes lol pictures were taken with my iPad so I apologize for quality. The camera control button works great.
