Got my iPhone 8 Silver in a Midnight Blue leather case.

How is it holding up?
 
Got the Ringke Onyx last well. Absolutely love it. Finally found a case that offers the same grip as the speck presidio/candyshell grip cases.

I bought this case in Navy Blue. Looks great, seems solid, all edges covered, and it matches my Apple Watch band.

Question #1: Does anyone know a case like the Apple's own leather for the 5/5s/SE? i.e. closed on the bottom?

And... Question #2: Does any case exist that has flat sides, that is, not following the radii of the phone?

Thanks :)
 
Ordered my 64gb Red 8+ yesterday (not really a fan of the look and feel of the X-series. Go figure.) and matching it with a Caudabe Lucid Clear. They’ve currently got a 20% off promo (coupon code’s on the site). I forgot to enter it in, but they honored it after I emailed them! Great CS. Hope the case is all it’s cracked up to be.

So just to follow up, I got the Caudabe Lucid Clear and I’m impressed. Sturdy, clear, supposedly incapable of browning unless I dip it in soy sauce or something.

The relatively bad: It is slick, but not hopelessly so. It is a bit of a fingerprint magnet. It does have a lip that’s so small I’m not sure it’s functional.

The good: it’s sturdy and it is rated for a 6 foot drop. It’s crystal clear. It’s damn nice looking and it’s functional.

I’d buy it again.
 
Just ordered a dark olive Apple silicone from Best Buy on clearance for $25 while they are still in stock.

Not my first choice probably (would love a yellow or orange one, or even the old Cocoa 7 case), but hopefully looks pretty nice. I really hate that once a phone is a year old Apple basically abandons making any more colors for the silicone cases and just leaves you with the standard/boring red/black/white/blue/pink.

Currently rocking my barely used ultra violet I bought when the phone was new.
