What case is everyone getting for their iPhone 7/7+?

I wasn't a fan of it myself because it was so slippery. Plus it wasn't the tightest of fit.

...I will agree about the slipperiness of it but I guess, the naked iPhone would be just as slippery. As for the tightness - mine fits on perfectly, i.e. there is no movement or creaking of the case at all and is really quite a snug fit on my iPhone 7.

My 7+ is jet black so it was a lot more slippery than the phone, if felt about the same as my black 7

It was the sides that felt looser than they should have been.

Just placed an order for a solid suit in carbon fiber. From the description it looks like this is actually carbon fiber as opposed to a carbon fiber pattern.

Were you a previous backer of them on kickstarter? Only asking because I can't get the website to show cases for the 7+.

Nevermind - My browser just hates me...

Did you get it? Would you mind posting pics of it?

I did. I'll post some pics when I get home as I'm no longer using the case. It looked OK, but I had to stop using it due to the design. The edge of the black bumper does not sit flush with the clear plastic on the back, but sticks out past the back making it uncomfortable to hold (for me at least). After a few days I went back to my Tech21 case.

Definitely interested in thoughts about this, regarding grip and stuff. Reminds me of my Evutec that I had for my 6s+. Their new one didn't measure up to that.

Care to post pics? I want to get one too but I can't decide if I should get the carbon fiber or brushed steel since images on their website are probably edited to look very good.

I posted some pics of my carbon fiber one about an hour ago. It is basically a playproofr for the more grippy back. I would've liked to of seen a little bit more high-end material as it looks like on YouTube with the guy they got the marble one
 
Sides and front are identical to the playproof, it's basically the same case but with better feel. I'll try to post some later. IMO this is my favorite case out of a few dozen I've tried, definitely worth buying. Evolutive labs is a great company, this cost me a $5 shipping fee!

I have got to stop checking this thread.... lol. Tempted to try since I liked my playproof but hated the lack of grip. Is this one really that grippy?

I wouldn't say immensely grippy. It is far more noticeable than the playproof. Also not as prone to finer prints and scratches.

I agree, it's not the absolute best grip of any case i've tried but it's much better than the playproof. Here's a few more pics, sorry they aren't great but had to use my old android phone.

What screen protector are you using? I'm also looking out for screen protectors that fit the solidsuit.
 
I have the zagg lux , is kind of expensive but worth it IMO. On the power button side there's a slight seam but barely noticeable.

Also, you can get a replacement for the price of shipping. I've got a new one on the way for $5, my current one has a scratch in the center.

Has anyone seen the new Nike case for iPhone 7? According to their site, a black one is coming out soon....

Nope, not mine...
Just curious, did you purposefully squeeze it like that or was it noticeable before squeezing it?
