People have been saying that for years. I have been buying them for several years and I havent noticed any decline. Since I have been buying htem they added metal for the buttons and now a wrap around the bottom. The leather quality seems as good as it was several years ago. Most problems with them are user generated.

Thanks. I may snag a case tomorrow when I go to pick it up and hold onto it in case I decide I don’t like the feel of it au naturale

I had this case last year and I absolutely did not like it because it was impossible and extremely difficult to get it off the phone so I am not a fan of this case at all and I like OtterBox cases
Forgot about that I had it and returned it, might be better this year?
 
Exactly what I got minus the wallet. With our Postal FAN discount, we get 50% off most accessories at the store except Apple usually, but AT&T flaked out on launch day and had their Apple cases Leather, Silicone and clear all for $25 each!

I grabbed them up, but didn't see the Defender Pro XT with MagSafe on there. I bought it at Otterbox for $75, but they missed a UPS connection and now it won't arrive until next Tuesday.
Looks like I'll be going to Amazon for a temp, cheap case/holster, because I need it for work.

I got the Sierra Blue iPhone 13 Pro, which Caudabe case should I get? I really liked the Sheath on my iPhone X but I'm not sure what color I should get, maybe the gray or navy?.. or maybe I should get the Lucid Clear?

Caudabe is new to me but looks good. I’m getting sierra blue iPhone 13 pro as well and the navy synthesis looks nice. currently sold out, so perhaps a navy sheath. How was the grip feel on your previous sheath? Slippery or tacky or…?

It's like a grippy textured material, it's especially amazing on the X because the curves makes some cases really slippery. But I almost never dropped my X because of the material, and it's very slim and sleek. Definitely recommend!

Can I get everyone’s opinion on this Otterbox Aneu light blue case? It doesn’t match the Sierra blue right? Thinking of exchanging it for the dark blue.

I ended up ordering this case from Amazon. My stepdad has one for his 12 that has held up very well, so I’m taking a shot too on it after Apple, for reasons I still don’t understand, got rid of the red and black leather cases.


Really hate all of the color options this year for the leather case, which is the one I get every year. Not wild about the idea of having to go to silicone to the point where I’m still considering keeping my 12PM for another year solely for the case options or going to the Mini to be in a position to go mostly case-less.

For the first time ever UPS refused to leave the package without somebody being there. Nobody is home during the day at my house so there’s no way that anyone can pick up the phone. They said they’ll try again on Monday?

Sorry man UPS guy drove past my house and only stopped at the neighbors. I had to drive around the neighborhood to catch him.

Do they have a depot place you can pick up from in the evening once the trucks return?

I actually just paid $8 to have it held at a place Near by but they won’t give a date

They are my favorite cases. If I know I am going to go hiking or be out in a lot of rain of something I chose to bring my Apple silicone case, but If you take care of your case you will love the feel of it. The longer you use it the more grippy it becomes. It's nice seeing the little apple on the back too.
 
Last Year’s Thread For Reference:

I purchased the Tech21 Evocheck for Iphone 13 Pro Case in Lavendar. It sells for $39 plus tax from Tech21, but I just saw other sites selling them like Verizon for $29. Shipping is free from Tech21. And I found a discount code that got me a few bucks off. It is impact tested using Multi Drops from 16 ft, it has enhanced camera protection and it has antimicrobial technology and is MagSafe Compatible. I have had this type of case on my iPhone X since I have owned it and it saved my phone IMO.

I have not gotten my iphone 13 yet but what case is recommended that works with magsafe? And what magsafe charger works with the iphone 13(I saw the belkin 3 in 1 online for 140 bucks but dang that is expensive)
 
I'm over here driving myself crazy tracking/waiting for my iphone delivery. The UPS driver is teasing me for sure. he was just so close and now so far away!

Same here. The drivers about a mile or so down the road but it taking forever to come. My UPS drivers an ornery old man.
