Yeah, I am as well. I mainly lurk this thread otherwise I'd spend a fortune. But, I've dwindled it all down to the sheath and 'munky' as my goto cases. I'm rocking the jade 'munky' case right now. I love it. It does feel weird using this case (15 bucks) when my sheath is 35 (coupons, etc) and I'm liking the munky that much better. Odd times. The buttons are just MUCH better on it. So... I think I'll stick to the jade munky for awhle and call it a day.
I'm not into the others... mous, pitaka, rebel etc. I like a minimal TPU style case that doesn't break the bank.
Hey youll all be sad when I’m gone.When Joe shows up
It's there, but very, very minimal. Granted this is with an ESR Armorite SP. Does not affect the phone one bit. I'm not a drop my phone kind of person, but I can see one nasty drop doing some screen damage possibly.
Is the ESR Armorite SP thick?
My take on cases is there are good quality cases in the $20 - $30 that offers protection that I need.
Let’s take the Munky and the Schpeegen Mag Armor @ $20. To me they are good quality cases. I’m confident that both will protect my iPhone from a chest height drop. They both offer a generic type of drop protection technology.
I paid $30 all in for my Caudabe Synthesis which has what’s called Shock Lite, Caudabe’s proprietary shock-absorbing polymer.
So now you have a case like a Caudabe that actually has a shock absorbing technology built into the case and not really a generic one like having air pockets or something. Ok it makes sense why the Caudabe is $10 higher than the Munky or the Schpeegen Mag because of this proprietary technology.
But in the other hand, is this proprietary technology really better than what the Munky offers in drop protection? Or is this marketing gooble a goo. Like the Mous Limitless with their innovative impact absorbing AiroShock technology.
Ok like said I see where the AiroShock and Shock Lite can make a case more expensive but 2x - 3x as much as the Munky?
Personally the Mous as an example. I would never pay $60 for it. To me it’s a maybe a $40 case and that’s pushing it to include AiroShock assuming it’s better than a similar case that doesn’t have AiroShock. I like the Nomad Sport case and haven’t handled it but to me it’s certainly not a $50 case. 30% off and free shipping for $ 35 all in? Maybe.
Now if I wanted a more “dressy” case I have my eye on the Nomad Leather in English tan but not for $50. If Nomad runs another sale I’ll be able to get it at $35’ish all in with shop cash and coupon code.
For a daily driver there are a good assortment of cases in the $20 - $30 range for me to choose from.

Sorry yeah I should have said - Mag Armor actionbutton is spot on! Onyx in comparison to it is very average, though admittedly not as bad as the Caudabes.
I’m trying to remember which iPhone model actually had round-ish sides similar to the sides of the Mag Armor case.
Maybe that’s why I like the Mag armor because it converts the iPhone 15 pro into a rounded-ish side phone. Where most cases have flat sides of course. The iPhone 15 has completely flat sides.
Here’s an older iPhone I have, forget model.

My nomad leather might be here today! 🥳 turns out the shipping process started on the 3rd, I just wasn’t notified till this morning. FedEx moving fast since leaving Hong Kong Dec 5 2am.
I like the English tan in non Horween that I think would patina like an mf’er. But out of stock in non max.
Yeah, I have my Dune Bullstrap for that patina fix, it’s my favorite case. I got the black Nomad for a more protective leather option. Just hoping the lip isn’t too bad with my Torras screen protector.
From watching lots of videos doesn’t look like much or any lipage with a screen protector.
Another Ali Express gem.
Soft, nice to the touch leather, good fairly flush clicky buttons, decent MagSafe Strength, definitely real leather; smells good! I think it’s a metal camera ring so see how that holds up.

Looking at the reviews, they come in exactly the same packaging and with same screen protector my green one did
Nomad’s black Horween leather case on Natural Titanium! This case feels really premium; the matte tpu edges paired with the metal buttons feel really nice. The case feels light, not bulky at all, and fits the phone well. There is just enough lip over my Torras SP for lay on the table protection. I have to say, the leather isn’t as soft as I was expecting coming from Bullstrap, but it’ll definitely be more protective.
