Love the blue and I always get black.
Looks good in the Spigen Ultra Frosted Black, imo anyway.
I had the NT originally but was too dull/grey for my liking.
Got a tip for us?

All of the cases I have are either blue or clear trimmed in blue, to match the titanium blue. None of them have any color, so they are boring now. I learned my lesson to go with my first instinct now. I’m looking for other cases to compliment the blue that is another color besides blue and clear.
Gone for the Otterbox Defender XT case in clear/black today as it's £21 on Amazon UK!
I did order it this morning but it was full price (£48); had another look and all of a sudden it's on offer for 'Prime Members Only' - cheeky sods... Cancelled that order toot-sweet!

After running the aspen pokadot case I got from hooterville for 3 days, I went ahead and ordered a fine woven case. Missed the thinness. Hopefully that’s it for cases from me until the new phone in 2 months
This is a hidden gem for only $20 you get tempered glass screen protector, camera lens protector along with the case. The buttons are customizable but ESR doesn't sell a set of differently coloured ones or a whole set like RhinoShield and Flolab do. Except for not being to customize the area around the cameras, it's a cheaper alternative to the Flolab Surtect and RhinoShield somrthing-suit.

I'm contemplating the blue iPhone 16 pro, what is it you don't like about the blue? Have you just gone off the colour?
The blue titanium is dark and dull. The only color cases I have are dark blue and clear. If it was a lighter blue, I would probably feel different about the color. I had the deep purple 14PM and stuck with that for 2 years and loved that color.
This case is looking sweet. Does it leave any MagSafe ring on the back?
I'm using the new Belkin Qi2 charger and it has a soft silicone pad and you can see some smudging on the back after a full charge but it wipes right off 100%
there likely wont be a blue 16 pro will be replaced by rose
I don’t hate the Defender. Question, are you running a glass screen protector, and if so, does the frame interfere with the protector?
I'm using the Spigen GlasTR screen protector on the 15PM and it's a perfect fit with the Defender XT frame. Does not touch or bother the protector at all. I tried to get a couple pics:
I think I may have asked this before but which app is that lock screen weather widget from?
After the Apple silicone, multiple Pitaka Pros, and now the Nomad Sport, I'm 100% happy with the Nomad Sport and haven't felt the need to find anything else. Great feel in the hand, great fitment, great buttons, just the right amount of grip, looks beautiful, surprisingly durable (very little wear on the shiny backplate), strong MagSafe... I'm seriously tempted to pick up 1-2 other colors while they're on sale.
This case is growing on me, maybe my last before the 16 . Can you also share if your phone got any scratches from not having any felt lining ? I recall older defenders had some soft padding inside .
Thanks
No scratches at all. The XT has a rubber lining around the inside edges. The only hard plastic that touches the phone is the inside back and the little plastic frame that secures the phone in the case. I haven't seen any damage from either and my OCD is off the charts. Keep in mind this case is HUGE
This is the Otterbox Defender XT case on my 15PM; it fits superbly and has zero issues with the Spigen EZ fit screen protector
Going to run this case whilst I'm away for a week; feels very protective; more so against the Nomad and UAG cases I have

Is that the revised version? If not or even if it is, Caudabe will replace it for you for free. Just reach out to them, they’re really great at that.
That issue is from their early ones, I had that issue as well.
They revised it with better buttons and no more MagSafe dislodging issue.
I always try a few cases at the beginning of the cycle then settle down to one and Synthesis has been it for me.
I regularly take it out of the case to clean it and never had that issue once they sent out the revised version.
I ordered it in November so I assume this is the first version
I sent then an email, waiting for a response, they will probably replace it I know.
