I wanted the Celestial Blue but it's backordered ... went with the Black Synthesis ... hopefully will be here before the phone (no guarantees).
Am I the only one who misses this case? Never had to worry about battery life, especially on trips
ESR aint playin this year with their dummy proof installation lol ...no black edges on protectors either
Ordered one a little while back and should be here early next week.
Love it on the 15 Pro Max and they've kept the metal buttons unlike their ArmorPro.

Which ESR ones are these? I found them.
Sal are these the ones you got?
Here you go friend, these are the Armorite series

In addition to the Aquamarine silicone case from apple, I just ordered this leather sleeve. Sometimes I like to have the iPhone naked and this sleeve is an easy and quick way protection.
Just ordered, hopefully something will work. Already have the Torras and the Spigen will be here tomorrow. These on Sunday. Guess Armorite is better than the Spigen ones?Here you go friend, these are the Armorite series

I ended up going with the Speck Presidio2 Grip, in Coastal Blue / Dust Grey. It arrives today.
I had this case on my XS (in both black/grey and blue/grey) and really liked it. I went with the Caudabe Sheath on my 13 Pro, it's been a good case but I don't like the square sides as well as the rounded sides on the Speck - it makes it easier to grip/pick up the phone, especially when it's laying flat on a surface. The Speck also gives me a more positive grip on the phone when holding/using it, and on top of it all, I like the look of the Speck better.
They're both good, well-fitting, durable cases and I'd be happy to use the Sheath if the Speck wasn't available. But since it is, the Sheath loses out this time.

What's the difference between the above ESR and the one I ordered? They give you a thing to rest your phone on to avoid slippage?
I only used 1 from last years armorite series and it still looks brand new a year later...this is why I went ESR again
9H to 9H+ hardness on the scale of strength ...probably can't go wrong with either, I just went Armorite since I went that route with the 15PM
This thread just reinforces how much I hate cases. They all cheapen the phone’s look.
I wish they made an actual case in this color.In addition to the Aquamarine silicone case from apple, I just ordered this leather sleeve. Sometimes I like to have the iPhone naked and this sleeve is an easy and quick way protection.
And no negative impact on brightness, etc.? The 92% light transmission bit gave me pause. I'm sure this is the case to some extent with all of them. Just haven't used one in a very long time.
