Another Phone Rebel snafu, USPS is closed tomorrow 10/10 :oops:

Even if they receive the cases, they won't be shipping out tomorrow.

Hmmm, I am still considering the wallet, but I really want to know how the case is. Have you used the case?
I haven't used their case - only the wallet. I have used ESR and Phone Rebel cases and have tried a smattering of other cases but prefer those for MagSafe magnet strength, drop protection and looks

Looking at the cheaper, not live edge cases on the Carved site and seriously considering trying one. Do the left and right side lips taper down in the middle for better swiping? Anything to make it easier to swipe up from the bottom?
I don’t think they do. They didn’t on the older versions of the case but I loved those cases nonetheless. I had like four of those too and my son has one on his phone! Try it. Doesn’t hurt and the customer service is great too so it doesn’t end up working out they will return it hassle free.

Still waiting on the phone but got one of my kitties to pose with my live edge. It’s phenomenally gorgeous. (Well they both are)

I've tried few MagSafe wallets and settled with the pop socket version. It can hold more cards, also doubles as a pop socket to hold the phone. Been good for me so far with couple of months of usage.

3/4 correct! No Nomad - the brown leather is the Andar case.

Only other case I might add is a black leather and/or the upcoming orange rugged case from Nomad

How do you like the Andar case? Any good? Which one do you like out of all the ones pictured?

I like Andar, but don’t love it: it’s too tight, hard to take off, and the black camera border is kind of ugly. However, I’ve owned a lot of leather cases in my lifetime and Andar has the best smell out of all of them. 7/10.

My favorite this year is honestly the Ink leather case. It fits really well and I love the color. Considering it’s a darker color, I think it’ll patina pretty well for an Apple case.

I have the Ink leather currently, and preordered the orange Nomad Rugged for days I need… ruggedness.

Is that the Sheath or Synthesis in your lineup? I’m considering grabbing the Synthesis for days I want in-betweeny protection of the apple leather and the nomad rugged.

How often do you change cases for your iPhone? Changing cases all the time there in any risk of scratching the phones?

I take my case off and clean the phone every couple of days and have never scratched it

That’s the sheath..I don’t really like the design of the synthesis to be honest.

The sheath is a great case, but I only use when I run or go workout. I keep my Ink case on 70% of the time.
