After damage being caused on the 15PM titanium frame from the Apple silicone case following a waist high drop, I’ve gone with a Casekoo case. Used them in the past and they’ve been great.

Anyone using a wallet type case that allows the phone to be removed and reinserted when needed? Thinking of getting one for the iPhone 16

I don't use cases, I'm more of a person who likes their phone to be as light and sleek as possible. I'm using skins for my iPhone 15 pro Max. Earlier I was using skins from dbrand but then I switched to GadgetShieldz as they're cheaper than dbrand ones but also great in quality. No residue, no peeling off and also customizable.
I have been wanting to go no case but I remember when the 15s dropped there were a lot of videos saying they break 100x easier than the 14 series. Have you dropped yours, and if you have, how has the phone held up?
 
What is everyone’s opinion between these two cases for quality and durability.
- Otterbox cactus ( minus the light leak near port)
- phone rebel gen 5
 
Is anyone still using the Otterbox Cactus? I’m curious to know how it’s holding up after a few weeks.

I dropped mine with no case from table height onto a wooden floor. No marks or damage of any sort. Concrete or tile, of course, would probably have resulted in a different outcome.
 
Anyone going with no case now that the 16 is almost here ? I’m really debating it or maybe just a dbrand skin or the thin pitaka.
 
Received the OB Cactus in black today. New favorite case. I’d describe it as a cross between the Apple Leather case and the Caudabe Sheath, but better than either. Surprisingly thin and light, great fit, excellent buttons, fingerprint resistant, comfortable with just the right amount of grip. My only gripe is the small air gap above the port, which is not a deal breaker.

Is it thicker than the Sheath?

Be careful removing it as that camera ring becomes dislodged pretty easy :oops:
 
Digging in the ole case "Drawer of Death" this morning and pulled out the Magsafe Ringke Onyx from the ashes.
Wow, I forgot what a fantastic case this one really is. Rolling in it for today :oops:

VERY flimsy sides on that, couldn't use it.
I have the Onyx with Magsafe and the sides are not flimsy on the one I have. Actually it's a really good case. Very slim, strong MagSafe, good buttons, excellent grip, ETC. Also no MagSafe ring/marks after charging. Still on my for for 2 days straight now.
