Am I the only obsessed with buying cases?

Hahaha, I hear ya! I remember when I got my blue one that I ended buying 3 just to get the right one with no marks or anything. You'll dig the case though. Gets really nice and soft after some use and feels really nice. I clean my about once a month with leather lotion. Still looks almost brand new after 6 months, granted I don't use the case all the time. The lotion also gives my case an even softer leather feel which I really enjoy!

I really like the leather case. I never tried it previously as I love my silicone cases also. I finally figured out how to take off the silicone cases so not to cause the bottom corners to come loose and peel. My first two silicone cases - I pushed the bottom corners out when taking th case off the phone. Once I started pushing on the sides instead of the bottom edges, I had no further problems.

So a question for anyone out there that has both the Apple leather and silicone cases - do you see any difference in slimness between them? The specs are exactly the same but I truly think the black leather is noticeably thinner than the silicone case.

I remember hearing several times when the cases first came out that the general consensus was that the leather was slightly slimmer than the silicone.
 
My name is James and I'm a case a holic... Purchased just now, a dark blue magpul field case for the iPhone 5c. I just kept looking at it and Amazon had 12 left yesterday. Checked today and there were only two. So I went for it! £6.59 plus postage meant a little over £10. We shall see how it holds up. Hoping to use it when I go on a stag do later in the month if it arrives in time!

gotta say, after a long, arduous search since september, I have settled on my Atmos x3 until they release the x4. Great, quality materials and minimal bulk

I picked up the Thule Atmos X3 in black for my 6 Plus and it's all your fault! :D

That's awesome news Kristin! Did your Thule pop right on?

It's my daughter's Thule (she's the one with an iPhone 6--I have a 6 Plus), but the Thule Atmos X3 went on just fine with Cinder. No edge lifting or anything.

That's the exact one I have. Glad you like it. Works with my Zagg perfectly. Although I should be receiving the new Trenti from New Trent to test out. Will likely be good not sure if it can replace my atmos.

Looking at getting the atmos for my Air 2 as well
 
What's the best case with a card sleeve in the back? I bought one the other day at the mall and I absolutely hate it! It's hard plastic and only fits on card!!! I can't exchange it because I wasn't thinking I'd need to so I didn't take the receipt.

I'll get the Thule Atmos on Friday.

I was looking at the Thule for my iPad Air 2, but didn't like that there was no sleep/wake function.
 
Finally found "my" perfect case...the Catalyst waterproof case.
Good grip, great all-around protection, sleek design and no sound problems.
Excellent design and build :)

Among people at work I'm one of the worst with 7 or 8... But I guess I'm a light weight compared to some here.. Lol..

I tell you, I have a problem. REAL problem. If I see a case that has the smallest detail that I like, charge it!
