That looks terribly cheap and nasty…
The colors suck but I like the idea of it. Use a leather case when I’m out but slap a silicone back on at home just for the extra grip. I’m just curious how effective they are at staying on the phone.
 
Nice find, this is how I use my phone: no case but I have a skin on the back. Hopefully someone is brave enough to give it a try.

Ordered, won’t be here until the week of 1/18. Talk in the new year.
Cool, I’ll wait for your impressions. I sent them a message and they said they are working on a leather version for sometime next year. That might be the route I go.
 
I just received the black one for my phone. I love the simplicity of it, but I am not loving the silicone material. It's attracting all sorts of lint and dust and bits. Maybe a lighter color would hide the dust/dirt, but I wish it used a better silicone or non-sticky material for the back. I've only had it for a day at it feels like it's been dragged across the floor.

Interesting concept. Their Youtube video shows other materials that don't appear to be on the website though. Is that a suede or alcantara showing at the 8 & 10 second mark and again at the 15 second mark?

I think it’s some sort of leather/suede material. They said they were launching a leather version sometime in 2024.

Thanks for posting this! I used to use a 'case' on my original iPhones 4S 7 possible 5's, that was similar to this, but was a sticker. The bak had kind of a vinyl feel to it. The company went out of business, and I've been searching for a replacement ever since. Looks like Suti only sells these for the 14 & greater phones, and it won't fit my 13 mini, but glad to see that someone is doing this again. The original ones I used were the greatest cases I ever had. They give you just enough grip to make the phones usable without a case, but don't get in the way like a full case does.

Suti responded in the comments of that video. "NanoSuedes" will be available in the next 2-3 months. Other unspecified texture materials not for at least 3-6 months.

Check out dbrand, they have skins for the 13mini. I’m using their leather skin on my 15pro and it’s pretty nice.

Good catch. I’ll wait for the suede since I don’t typically care for silicone
 
I have this and love it. It's a terrific (and ingenious) product, and works exactly as advertised – adds protection for the back, and a little extra grip.

Thank you! I never saw this post until now. I will check them out. This would be fantastic.
 
How much does this weaken MagSafe?
I have a MagSafe stand and it works fine with that. I do notice my MagSafe wallet slides around a little more than it does when I use a leather case but it hasn’t really been an issue for me.
