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.

I think that’s really nice.

I've ordered all of these 😅😅😅 I'll return the ones I do not like. Kind of excited the Spigen ThinFit has MagSafe now.

I've ordered three cases:

Caudabe Synthesis in black - delivery date TBD (wanted Celestial Blue, but it's "back ordered").
Rebel Air in black - arrives on 10/15.
TOCOL OCOL Magnetic case in blue. Arrived today. Cheap case to hold me until the others arrive.

Ordered the Caudabe Amber joint and gray Sheath together. I know the red/orange one is not shipping until the end of the month or early October, hopefully this does not delay the shipment of the Sheath?

The black Synthesis I ordered separate so this one I'm not to worried about.

So far no shipment or anything from Caudabe. Guess it will be Monday before they start shipping.

I really like the Sheath. I wish they would put the grip bumps on it that are are on the Synthesis case. I've been using Caudabe cases for many years and find them a good compromise between lightweight and protective.

I spoke with Lonli. They currently working on a button version.
My assumption is that they need the phones in-house in order to develop the cases.

With this confirmed (according to them) I assume most manufacturers will do the same.
Wow, great news! I'll definitely order one when the new version will come out.

FWIW, I ended up trying the Suti on my 15 Pro and absolutely loved it, it was my favourite of the year in the end. It shocked me tbh, ordered on a whim and didn't expect to like it. So much so that I have already pre-ordered the NanoSuede in 'Polar Fleece' and Carbon Fiber versions for my pre-ordered 16 Pro.

The founded Lon is also super responsive on emails etc, had a bit of chat with him. I have absolutely zero affiliation with Suti, but just love the product and loved the customer service.

I also totally appreciate that most on here will think this is absolute sacrilege!! I get that most people want a case that also protects the sides. I'm a little different - I'd always been desperate to use my phone naked but too scared. Every time I swapped cases and held it naked I was reminded how much I love it. I saw this and it made me consider that actually I'm pretty careful with my phone, and that most of the time I'm just setting it down on a desk etc and don't want to scratch the back. So saw this and thought I'd try. So don't anyone shout!! 🤣 I know I'm in the minority!!

Different strokes certainly. Whatever makes you happy is what matters! On the other end of the spectrum, I kid you not, I just had to remove the case from my 13P to remind myself what color it is.

I’ve always liked the clear from ESR.
another en route from Apple also

Me too! I just got the clear case that is all TPU for the 16 pro max because I like the feel of the flexible model instead of the plastic feeling of the hard back case type. But yes, it can slightly yellow after time. I just compared the new one to my 2 year old one I've had on my 14 pro max and really, it has aged not as bad as I would have thought. And for the price, $8.00 USD, sheesh, just get a new one every once in whatever. So glad they still carry the flexible one, since I really prefer clear cases but don't like the hard feel of acrylic. I bought the Apple clear case and returned it. Awful feel. What a bargain this one is!

Spigen Glas-TR screen protectors in today. I've used these on my past 3 iPhones and they have always been perfect. The one on my 15PM is still perfect and it's been on since day one out of the box.

I held this and the Torras together and both protectors are exactly the same dimensions.

I also have the ESR ones on the way and should be here on Monday.

I've had the Torras on since day one and it's still flawless so have to go with them again.
Ordered direct as the one on Amazon UK has the orange tray and I believe the clear is the more up to date. Could just be that the pics need updating but didn't want to chance it.
Seems it's coming from China though so if it doesn't arrive by Wednesday/Thursday I'll get a cheapo next day delivery on Amazon to tide me over.


Have a case with the copper rods in the Capture button and it's going back. Feels like I can feel the ends of the copper on the inside and even though the button is sapphire crystal, I don't want that pushing and rubbing on it. Would rather a cut out than a case with that solution.

My Spigen Glas-TR are already here and waiting for the new phone. I'm currently using them on my 13 Pro and wife's 12, I like that they're so easy to install, always line up perfectly, and hold up well.

They last forever, but the oleophobic coating eventually starts getting less effective (my phone gets dirty a lot and I'll wipe the screen down with whatever I have handy, which probably doesn't help), so I'll occasionally put a fresh one on just for that reason. I don't mind changing them out, it's easy and they're not that expensive.

Nice, where do they ship from? I want to order that lime green one but it's already backordered.
