Wait, can we order Synthesis and then ask for Sheath as the second one(the free one with action button)?????
That would be great!
I believe that’s the case in terms of swapping them like that. Caudabe said if you order by the 25th or something, you’ll get the case with the cutout for the action button, and then you can email them with proof of your order, then they’ll send you the version with the button for the action button.

yeah, I know, but it would be a great deal if you can get both synthesis and sheath by the price of one. not 2 synthesis or 2 sheats.

Did someone who already ordered asked them if you can the other one for free?

I'm cheap (ironic considering the price of these phones) so I'll wait till Caudabe has updated their cases, so I don't have to pay for shipping twice lol

Natural Titanium 15 pro in a spigen ultra hybrid magfit case. Loving this case for the £17 I paid.

For those wondering if a case with a cutout for the action button is fine, the answer is no. Tried my new 15 pro with an Andar leather case and the action button is too small and flat to press easily.
I’m thinking it depends on the case. I have the Caudabe Synthesis with the cut out, and I have no problems pressing the button to activate it. Maybe because the case isn’t thick I’m thinking?

Just picked up my White iPhone this morning and it is stunning! Here it is with the black Pitaka MagEZ Case 4, and it is a stunning combo! It shows off the design and contrasts very nicely with the white and silver finish of the iPhone.

I normally don’t like open-button cases but this looks sliiiiick. That white titanium is gorgeous and contrasts beautifully with the color/texture of the case.

I have the Andar also and agree with you. Thing is I am thinking how often will we use the action button. I rarely used the on/off on the older phones. Was going to use as the torch on my 15 but like you say, can't really use with the Andar. I guess you have to think about how often you're going to use it. Or maybe return to Andar?

I don’t have a picture of it with the phone as I’m not getting it until tomorrow. And the Apple MagSafe fits the case just fine (I figured they would’ve engineered it that way) with little room to spare. Like I said, my aftermarket puck charger is slightly larger than the OEM Apple one and doesn’t fit with the camera cutout. This is definitely a quality feeling case for the money. I like it a lot so far.

The sides/buttons remind me of the nomad rugged, a lot.

I am having FOMO on the Natural Titanium now since I chose Black. But I feel like I’d prob have Fomo for the black if I got natural so it’s a lose lose, or maybe I need both 🧐
Imagine being in my shoes. This is the first year since the 4s that I haven’t upgraded on day one. I slapped a new case on this morning and have been hammering this thing all day. Battery is still at 88% and not a hiccup in sight on 17.0.1.

All that being said, I’m eyeing up those titanium finishes with a little bit of envy.

Yeah I have never got a new iPhone on launch. I’m only recently been sucked into this lovely little niche. But now I can’t imagine not being here! Haha I haven’t received mine yet, I had no plans to upgrade but decided to last minute and ordered one yesterday. Supposed to be delivered by Sept 29th at the latest… we shall see

I was dead set on not upgrading this year, and was so persistent with it that I didn’t read the rumor threads. Somehow last month, the upgrade settled in and I couldn’t help it but I had to preorder this year. I’ve already started saving up for the 16PM next year.

Strangely I haven’t had the urge yet, when every year prior I’ve pulled the trigger even after swearing up and down that I was happy with what I had.

Something changed over the past two years though as the only reason I jumped last year was because I was finally ready for a bigger phone and I still love it every time I have a reason to pick it up.

What’s lovely is that I get to live vicariously through all you fine folk that are enjoying their new toys this year. 🤗

Ok this natty titanium is so damn clean that this is the first iPhone in awhile I am considering with no case. But on days I need a thin case, do we have a verdict who makes the best thin clear case? Caudabe? Apple? Someone else?
