my $11 clay silicone case just came in from aliexpress and looks and feels amazing. I can’t imagine the “real” one is noticeably different.

I’m surprised the case came that fast! I’m seeing end of October for delivery

Damn I absolutely love this case!

Frosted back (less finger prints than clear)

Perfect blue to complement the blue phone and allowing the color to really shine!

Metal buttons that are super clicky (reminds me Apple’s Leather case or now FineWoven metal buttons) and nice shade of blue that again complements the phone so well and the little touch of orange in the action button looks great!


Perfect cutouts for the speakers on the bottom and comfortable on the pinky

It has MagSafe and it is a perfect blue that blends right in (instead of standout white)

Not bulky at all

Super comfortable in hand and nice soft feel and not super slippery like most clear cases

Very nice fit as well, looks really premium

I just ordered this case for delivery tomorrow. I blame you for having me buy a 4th case.

Returning the clay silicone. Already beginning to discolor.

Back in the Torras slim fit in gray. Great fit but slippery. Oddly Strong magnets too
Would also like to see pics.

First Saturday with mine and in and out of my jersey shorts, the lint pick up is just insane, which is kinda what I expected but was hoping it’d wear in after a few days. Thinking of returning and sticking to leather.

I bought the Ringke Onyx to hold me over until my Dbrand Grip with Triple Black arrived. I usually get Spigen cases (have one on my S22+ that serves as a media player for my of HipDac and Shure cans). First Ringke case and I was impressed with the grippiness. Very slim. Looks a bit cheap imo due to it covering the lens bubble. The Grip case arrived Thursday. It’s nice as expected as I had one on my 13PM. The slimmer 15 bezels don’t translate as well to the grip case. You have to A / B them to notice.

I now have a 13PM case I’ve been trying to gift and am now realizing how rare my friends, family and coworkers upgrade, and the ones that do, prefer the smaller phones 🤦‍♂️.

Greetings all.

Anyone who says they don’t get lint pick up is lying to themselves 😂😂

I love their cases and have been a customer for years. I’m still waiting on my Celestial Blue Lucid Clear to ship out.
I like the fact that the MagSafe ring is blue on there as I have a Titanium Blue phone. I’m hoping it blends in more than the white one on my current ESR case. It also looks like it maybe slimmer than the ESR case.

My phone case search is over. Jeez, that was tough this year. Andar Aspen navy ordered, will take several weeks til it’s in my hand but the blue/green hue won it for me. Full grain leather, not too chunky, fully covered edges and an action button on the new models.

How do people find the Casetify case?

What's so good about the case? I may look into this case. Does the case have an open bottom?

Any soft padding on the inside of the metal buttons?

Why this posted twice is beyond me.

The back is slicker on the Synthesis vs. the Sheath isn't it? I remember that being a downside for me last year when I tried them both. I did enjoy the grips on the side though.

Yes the back of synthesis is slicker than sheath but the grips on the sides absolutely make up for that. I prefer the overall feel in hand of the synthesis with slightly smoother back and sides with grips over the all around sandpaper like texture of the sheath which isn’t bad, I used sheath for many years but switched to synthesis last year and now I prefer it.

Those of you who ordered Andar cases for the 15 Pro/Max and have already received them; they have redesigned the cases with an action button instead of a cutout, and are offering a 50% discount + free shipping if you order a replacement case. You should get a discount code sent to your email.

EDIT: they are showing November delivery for the redesigned cases; they had the cutout cases available as soon as the Pro went on sale and have quit selling those.
