I got the Nomad leather back and put it on last week, it's already starting to patina a bit. Surprised it's happening so quickly.

I did remove it yesterday and the micro-suction did not stick when I put it back on. I wiped them off with a wet cloth like Nomad says, let them dry, and put the case back on, and now it sticks just as good as before. They didn't leave any residue when I took it off either. The suction pads are pretty cool.
 
My Bullstrap replacement came in today along a RL black open bottom that I had on ordered for about 2 weeks now. Super happy with the tiger stripes on the Bullstrap and grain on the RL

What’s the micro suction?

i had to order one lol. i have like 13 cases for this phone y’all
Yeah I have way too many cases now. I wish they had more colors available. One thing I did notice is that lint is getting trapped between the edge of the case and the phone. I guess it’s similar to lint getting trapped between the edge of the screen protector and case but I never had that problem with the dbrand leather skin.
 
Obviously, after the Lucky Coin excitement of the last month or so, they realized there was no way they could compete in the closed bottom sector any more. So they packed up their ball and went home :cool:
Tbh I was looking forward to buy a BS closed bottom before, but after I bought the LC case, I have no desire in buying the BS case anymore lol.
I might try it out if I have a new iPhone in the future though.
 
What you think? I’ve had mine on since Friday and I like it. If was a little thinner and lighter it would be the end game “case” for me.
I really like it except for the plastic camera ring, it feels and looks cheap.

Also i’m worried about the durability of it .. hoping the leather doesn't start peeling from the edges over time. Also the “micro-suction” seems a bit sketchy whether or not it’ll last.

But overall, it’s the slimmest leather option out there and really enjoy that it doesn't add width to the phone!

Apart from the look that Benz enthusiasts may like, the action button is missing, furthermore the feedback from the remaining buttons is terrible / non-existent.

ironically the antithesis of the design and manufacturing qualities of the German car brand :)


it will be my first return in years. avoid at all costs.

The leather and the design looks pretty nice TBH, too bad they messed up so bad on the rest of the case.
