I wanted the Celestial Blue but it's backordered ... went with the Black Synthesis ... hopefully will be here before the phone (no guarantees).
That's what I did too. I got a white Paragon on top of the Synthesis. I don't think I'll have the Paragon until after I get my phone, but I'm curious to see what Caudabe came up with.
 
somebody a few pages ago asked about the dbrand grip case. i bought one the last two years. it offers great protection on both sides and to me feels great. i stopped using it because it had a weak magsafe connection, even last year where they claimed it was stronger. i also got tired of the weird shape. it’s kinda thick at the top and thinner at the bottom. one cool thing is you can change up the skin and easily get a new look.
Thank you.
 
Got my Nomad Modern today. I like the dual material, but I still like full leather better. I'm hoping by the time Bare has their Skin leather case ready that it will have a glass camera button.

I'm looking for a wallet to attach to my Spigen Ultra Hybrid frosted black case, one that will hold firmly to the case. Lots to choose from, not sure whether to go with a Spigen wallet in the hope they work well with their cases.
 
Ordered the Spigen Ultra Hybrid T (with Camera Control button) in frosted black to go along with the black and stone gray Apple Silicone for my black 16PM. Just wanting an alternative to the Silicone cases. It’s currently back ordered but I’m in no rush.

I ordered the same case in graphite to go with the desert titanium iPhone 16 pro max. I ordered it off amazon so it says it will ship by next week

Did they fix the cutouts on the bottom ?
Can you post a picture showing the bottom?
 
Just received my new Speck Candyshell Grip for my Black 16 Pro! Overall it feels pretty solid and I really am digging the matte texture and color combo. the cutout for camera contras much better integrated than many other cases which simply created a rather abrupt cut in the case that doesn't flow with the rest of the design. Can't wait to use it!

Holy sh*t they finally brought the white/black combo back. This case had been my favorite and go to for years, and I was sad when they stopped making it after the iPhone 11.

Not quite the same as the classic but I'll take it.

The holes on the sides of these cases look terrible. Apple is going to make so much money selling their official silicone case.

I assume next year all the third party cases will step up their game with the sapphire buttons, but I think the holes on the side look (and will probably perform) poorly.
 
So I'm not liking how small the camera cutout is on the Nomad compared to the Rumwot. It's small. So far the Rumwot looks like it's going to be my case until a great case come along (hopefully the Bare Skin).

I agree 💯. That is one reason why I passed on upgrading. My 15 Pro is still cherry.
 
I had my Spine Glass.tR EZ fit turn up early last week, used it on my 14PM and decided to go with the same.
For the case, I will just go with an Apple Silicon one for now until 3rd parties can get the camera cover sorted properly. Also want a non-open one at the bottom, which narrows things further.
 
I must admit i like the Pitaka ones. Looking awesome but unsure if i can justify the price…

All these years and Nomad still can’t get the cutout’s right 😩
Pardon my ignorance but what is wrong with those bottom cutouts? Looks like my 13P's Apple leather case (well, before it started breaking down into a mushy thread exposed mess, so maybe I'm answering my own question!).
 
Is this new Gripzilla frosted or shiny on the back? The description says matte but I'm not too sure.

I'm kind of diggin this case :oops:

It's on my radar but maybe I'll just get the all black one which I know is a good case.
