Thanks for that, I used it today to buy a Doberman. How long does delivery usually take from them? Never bought anything from Totallee before but everybody who has one seems to like it.

The Scarf model comes in several colors. I went with black. Got them both though, and directly from the totalee site.

It took only a few days, and they provide a tracking number.

Ended up getting the jet black totalle case. Love it! Makes my matte black look like a jet black. Also had a Belkin screen protector fitted by Apple. Perfect install.

I don't understand why anyone with the matte black iPhone 7, which does not show fingerprints, would slap a black shiny case on it, which WILL now show fingerprints?!??:confused:

Just changing it up a bit I guess? My regular case is the Apple leather case in black. I change cases every now and then. Even go naked sometimes! For me cases are all part of the fun.

Bought this case on a whim since it was only $3 and from a US seller. Arrived yesterday and it's a pretty nice minimalistic, hybrid bumper like case. Not sure how good it would look on matte/jet black, but I really like the contrast on my silver ip7+. Got the black but might pick up the navy one too. My only complaint is the buttons are a little softer compared to some of the more clickly cases I've had, but it's not that bad.

Can you take some actual photos of your phone with the case ? I really want to see how it looks in real life. Thanks.
 
I really like this matte clear case. You can't see the jet black as well as I'd like but no dirt gets in there. It doesn't smudge up. It does show the logo. It also is really easy to put on and remove. The exact cutouts for the camera are nice.

Plus it was pretty cheap.

.....I bought the same exact case for my iPhone 7, from Amazon as well and let me tell you, the case was utter junk.....

Its cheaply made plastic (and it feels terrible, quality wise), it makes the phone very slippery (i.e. it offers ZERO grip), and mine, had a nasty rough edge around the top, where the sides of the case get moulded to the back portion - you could actually feel the join.

Mine lasted on my iPhone, less than a minute, before I threw the case in the rubbish bin!

I totally agree with you. Bought it, returned it yesterday. Horrible case.

Just upgraded to iphone 7 and 7+ last week and here’s my current set up. Hopefully this helps someone looking for a simple low profile bumper + e2e glass setup. I’m coming from a 5s with a generic G10/Aluminum Ronin (Element Case) with Tech Armor glass on front.

iPhone 7 bumper:

X-Doria Defense Edge Series, Space Grey – Good build quality and fit but the shiny exposed aluminum trim was too flashy for my taste. Surface is matt which is more prone to slip but the exposed aluminum chamfer helps give the bumper a more secure hold/feel.

RANVOO Aluminum Metal Bumper Frame, Black – Good build quality and fit. Same design as the X-Doria Defense Edge but slightly thinner and without any exposed shiny aluminum. Surface is a closer match to my jet black phone so it has less of a slippery feel. Looks great and feels solid – the perfect simple low profile bumper! But damn… I doubt my phone would survive a drop by one of my boys.

Thanotech K11, Black – Ordered based on the drop test video along with the ribbed rubber on upper and lower sides (I was looking for something with an improved grip). This bumper is still slim but beefier than the X-Doria and RANVOO case. The rubber lining is also more pronounced on the front and back… more protection but at the cost of a slightly “fatter” low profile setup. I also noticed that the sides have a wobble allowed by the wider rubber strip on the upper and lower sides. The included back film is a print magnet. Confidence in drop survival? Yes.

iPhone 7 Glass:

Tech Armor prime glass by Corning – Ordered based on good history with their products and customer service. Installed flawlessly. Unfortunately, this particular product was not edge to edge and I wanted a cleaner look.

D&P Ultra Clear 3D E2E glass – Ordered based on reviews here. Edge to edge is the way to go! Installed flawlessly but sometimes I get bubbling on the edges. Possibly the curved edge getting pushed by the Thanotech bumper. I don’t think there was any adhesive under the curved edges. Since the design is black frame with clear window, alignment during install is key. I think I have it lined up properly but the black side bars cover enough of the screen for me to notice if looking closely.

Does anyone have recommendations on a better edge to edge glass that has thinner side frame/bezel? I'm also looking for a better back film for the jet black.

The best case compatible screen I've seen is the zagg glad lux. Unfortunately it's also the most expensive.
