It's a good case but those orange buttons do worry me. Someone posted to peel the clear stickers off of the black buttons and put them on the orange. I still have not tried that yet but will sooner or later.
phone rebel has already refunded me lol just in time for the andar restock now to choose between navy or the camel tan lol

TechnicallyTee’s Aspen review mentioned that Andar is going to bring out a black case soon.

Hi, new here!
I have 2 Apple leather cases, 2 Apple silicone cases, and I found a purple leather case to match the purple iPhone. I haven’t taken any good photos of my Apple cases, but I think most people know what they look like by now. The Amazon leather case is shown with the Dark Cherry wallet.

Where did you get that case? Link?

Weird, only one photo attached. I can’t get it to work, I think my network signal is too low at work. I’ll try again later.

It’s from a brand called Lonli. My links aren't working. But you can find it by searching that brand.

I’ve been using the midnight Apple leather the last few days, since I really like the contrast. I got this one from Verizon, and the forest green from Amazon with rewards points. Strangely, the green one is much softer, almost “plush” compared to this one; it even feels a tiny bit thicker. It may have to do with the extra graininess(?) of the midnight case? Is that the term for the very light texture in the leather? The forest green is very smooth.

Got this on the way. It’s a Pitaka without the branding and half the price.

Trying the Peel case again since they refunded me…MagSafe is strong. If you want a super thin case then it’s good. Same as Nudient just a bit more expensive.

Guess Nomad is having major supply chain issues. They have hardly anything in stock and most items are shipping in Jan 2023. When I preordered the Ultra Orange case and band, they said ships in November. Now, everything is Jan 2023

Wonder if us early adopters will get our orange items this month?

Tried one of their leather cases. The fit was poor and uneven. Same as last year. Gave up with Nomad.

i received my dbrand grip case today for my 14pm. bottom line is i am super happy with it. i was actually skeptical of @TechnicallyTee review on youtube because he got the case free from dbrand (nice that he's honest and upfront about that), but i have to say imho his review is spot on accurate.

i personally think the sides and shape of the case is among the best looking cases. i went a little crazy with the back skin based on my typical style. i did order a carbon fiber skin for a more refined fit. besides loving the look, the case feels great in my hands. nice and grippy. great screen protection and camera protection. you can feel when placing the phone down on a table that the case is touching. great details where the sides are basically flush with the glass but the ends curve up the protect the screen. i was worried about the MagSafe strength. it is improved from my last experience with the 12pm. i would say it is the standard MagSafe strength. not as strong as my phone rebel case but adequate. i am fine with it. anyways, the above video review is great and covers it all.

here are a few pics:

Does it still feel like sand paper and remove lint from your pocket?

it does feel rough, i guess that adds to the grip. i’ve only had it for a day. so far it hasn’t attracted lint or dust anymore than what’s normal.

i know i can be a broken record but i’m really happy with this case. it’s my favorite so far. with my screen protector the sides are flush with the glass. it’s really feels nice with side swiping.

the only review i’ve seen is the youtube review i linked. i’m probably not the best to answer this. i’m in so cal and have only worn shorts since probably march. in shorts i haven’t noticed any problems. i actually find the grip helpful in that i don’t feel like the phone is going to slip out when i sit down.
