I went with a Sonix case it seems to be what I always end up going with early on, they have some really cute case and I love the sparkles. I also like Casetify cases and will order one but last year it took so long to get it so I cant rely on their cases to be here anytime soon.

About the Velvet Caviar cases my sister has one of the leopard printed ones (a rose gold color) and loves it, they are nice and seem to be good quality.

Can someone help if possible?

Looking for cases that provide the most protection essentially or I lean more towards that end than style.

  1. Historically gone for the Incipio Duo due to them having an inside silicone case which sits inside another external harder case.
  2. Do I need a lens protector? I have an old X then i'm upgrading to the Pro Max which obviously have more cameras.If I do get one does it affect image/video quality?
Any advice appreciated

Caudabe doesn’t have their 15 pages live yet but if you go to the 14 variant and in the address bar put 15 instead they showed some products. The Sheath was up earlier and the initial offering looked to be with the action button open. It said they are revising the case to have it covered and once they release that in another month or so you can just email them to get the latest case no charge. It also looks like they are bringing back the gray color which I guess goes hand in hand with the new titianium color.
Live now. Just ordered mine. Heads up.

Caubabe made a HUGE screw up with the action button wide open = complete FAIL and I'll pass o_O

Someone said they will correct this problem and release updated cases in a month or so.

Guess two cases for the price of one is not bad but who wants to buy a defective case and wait months for the correct version to be shipped?
Why? I’m confused why it matters either way. I personally would prefer the action button be indented and uncovered so I had a lesser chance of activating it accidentally.

However, I think it’s awesome that I will get two cases for the price of one. I’m just hoping I can get another color for the next one.

I for one am super happy with their design and, incidentally, their mix-up.

Looks better than I thought. The edges seem to be fabric / nylon as well and not rubber or silicone.

What colours did you get? Please share lots of pics!
Ordered the blue, green and black.

Getting the natural titanium and these three look the best with the camera module judging by the pics. I try to avoid black cases usually but again, looking at the pics it appears to have a bit of a grey hue and looks so slick against the camera module.

Sucker for a green case too

FINE WOVEN HERE!

Went with black.

Feels slippery on the side. Like TPU. Fine woven feels nice but I think will show marks quickly from greasy fingers etc. Nice metal buttons.

Happy to answer questions.

Nice pics!

Does it feel velvety and like suede? Or like the Apple polishing cloth?

Is it the photo and lighting or is the Apple logo smudged already?!?! 😱

That makes me feel even more torn. They look like the sides would have good grip but if it’s slippery I might give it a miss.

My fine woven thoughts;

Three finewoven are here. Hard to decide which way to go without a phone to try them on! They won’t fit on my 14 Pro.

It’s between blue and black I think. The green is a bit duller than I was expecting.

The weaves are a lot finer than I was expecting, I like the feel of the case. It’s slim, the sides have a nice feel to them, smoother than the back of the phone but still textured and not too slippery. They definitely pick up a bit of lint and it’s easy to catch bits in between the groove where the edges of the case meet the back so could get annoying. The buttons are metal, slightly loose but will be nice and clicky I think.

Hmmm. A difficult one as I have had leather cases for years and have been wanting to get away from them as the tackyness irritates me sometimes. Maybe while the cost of one of these is absorbed in the sale price of my 14 pro, I’ll run one and see how it goes.

My black FineWoven is coming this morning and looks like I will be happy looking at @chillip 's photos. Blacker than expected which is great.

I wonder if my Kiwi Sneaker protector spray will stop premature soiling....maybe not. Would make it water resistant but would probably make it dirtier with regular handling.
I think regular wiping down with damp cloth is the answer there.



I used to be a big Ringke Fusion and Onyx fan until MagSafe and they didn't offer these cases with it. Seems they now do and although the Onyx has caught my eye, I spotted a Fusion with MagSafe in a video ad at the bottom of their Amazon store (UK). Doesn't seem to be available yet but I'll be getting that one when able to.

I went with the Pitaka MagEZ Case 4 for my White 15 Pro. I love the slim profile and the fact that it shows off the titanium design is a winner for me! The camera surround is also metal.
