This one is not pulling apart on you?

Nope, this is the replacement UAG sent me for free. No fraying or any problems. Only cons are the slick sides and slits on the buttons that could let crap in.
That pic is of the original one though.

Is that a Grecazo? (I think its rebranded by others so may be an alt brand). Is that the MagSafe version of the case?? Grecazo mentioned they’re releasing their MagSafe model around Feb, so I’ll be replacing my non-MagSafe one for that. It still sticks to the MagSafe puck, but not very securely of course.

Shame you had to cut the bottom. I really like it myself. I like how they left it open in the middle so the most common swipe isn’t hindered & also prefer the speaker/mic cutouts to be one large oval hole instead of many tiny round ones to prevent potential blockage of sounds especially if they don’t line up perfectly. But they’re spot on for this one.

Yes, is the Grecazo with MagSafe

Did you notice any difference in wireless charging rate when using this case, compared to no case or official Apple cases (if you have any)? No extra heat generated?

I don’t have any original apple case, I don’t feel the phone getting super hot, just normal. I have been using this case since I bought it, the texture in the back makes the phone very gripping. The only thing it bother me was the bottom of the case it was sharp, so I trimmed down.

My local Best Buy has it. I might have to take a look. Everything I’ve read- outside from you, is that the tpu is way too flimsy.
The tpu is kind of soft and you can pull the sides out if trying. The case fits the phone nice and snug and I don't really have a problem with the tpu. The slick sides are another story. You can always Rent one from BB.
Here is another video of this case:

Sure is! I love them! They’re one of my favorite brands. I have a few travelers and a live edge. All of their cases are just gorgeous

Nice. I always wanted to try one but never picked one up. How are they protection wise would you say?

Really really good! My husband had his phone in a traveler and dropped it from waist high while we were at a fair once and it bounced and no harm to either phone or case. We have the live edge too which is, I’d say, not for anyone who has the clumsies but it might do ok with minor occasional drops.

They’re gorgeous gorgeous cases. The fit and feel are perfect. Plus the company and customer service are so friendly and very responsive which is phenomenal. Definitely love them and love supporting them.

Yikes! Everyone feel better! I’ve known people to get it and it’s not fun! Sending love!

Thank you so much! One of my best friends had it not too long ago and she ended up in the hospital at the beginning of it. Luckily she got over that bad hump and didn’t actually have to be hospitalized. Luckily for us it hasn’t gotten that bad either. Really appreciate the love!
