Came across a really nice case today at Walmart, I have been using the uag plyo,that I love, but found a incipio elan for 14 dollars, at check out , it was 8 dollars, frosted back, tremendous grip on the sides, nice lips, 6 foot drop protection, slimmer all the way around than the plyo, great fit, no lose ness anywhere, my new favorite case, and only 8 dollars, check it out.

Our Wally World only has this for the Pro and not the Max. You get one for the Max?

Ordered an Apple Leather case, Red. Due for delivery on Monday.

I often use a Black and Red Apple Leather case. Just delayed ordering my Red one.
I received some Apple gift cards the other day. So, what was to do, besides spend them on a case :D
I’ve been wanting to try the red Apple case as well. I know it won’t patina as nicely as the saddle brown case, but it’s a very nice and different looking color.

Dbrand grip case. Went with the gray carbon skin first (match my space gray phone) as I did not want to take a chance of screwing up my swarm. No problem getting the skin on at all. Just have to peel it off the backer super slow when you get near that thin camera border. Decent case with excellent grip, buttons are OK but not on the Symmetry level. :oops:
I'll test drive it for a few days and see how it goes. Here are a few pics for my peeps. :rolleyes:

Certainly looks nice! Keep us posted.
I have always wanted to try a dbrand, just too scared to install it. More than likely, I would mess it up...

It’s looking good man. Definitely looks a lot better with the skin on it.

Was perusing Walmart...I know, I know....and came across this case in their locked cabinet, but they only had it for 11 Pro.

Anyone have any experience with this case? Looks to be rare in the states.


Looks like the clear otterbox symmetry. It’s a good case. I have one and it will protect your phone with awesome buttons. It will yellow over time though.

It’s different than the Symmetry...couldn’t get a good look at it, but a quick search shows they call it a SKIN...doesn’t appear to have the bulk or hard back of the Symmetry.

I ordered the Tech21 Studio Colour then saw people on here saying that it’s super thin. Is this true?

they have them at my walmart, it is a walmart exclusive that is basically a flimsy skinny case just to show off your phone, i think it was like 3/6 feet drop protection? not worth it. five below has the same cases w/o the otterbox branding ?

they also have another walmart exclusive case called the viva, which is a cheap version of the commuter cases, and it’s actually a two piece (rubber + hard plastic).

has anyone have the Otterbox Vue or Otterbox Figura cases from Apple?

thanks! i was leaning towards the Vue but i’m scared it would be slippery as well. The few videos i found on it loved them The figura looked nice on the screen but it looked too siliconeish and way too skinny.

I love these two Nillkin cases. Best slim cases IMO. Very grippy. CamShield (1st two). Frosted Shield (last one). They were not available at iPhone 11 launch, and I forgot about them. Finally got around to getting these, and no regrets.

Looking sharp man! I've had them in the past and they are nice. Need to get rid of some cases before I get anymore though lol.

Amazon has them as well, but are more $$$
