Case Recommendations

[Callander]

So I have a Pela case for my iPhone 14 pro and although I love the feel and color/design, I can’t stand the button feel. It’s mushy and so easy to accidentally push/click.

Can anyone recommend a similar style/feel with way better buttons?

Oh Boy!
Yet another case recommendation thread!
🤣

Haha, did I mess up? Should I delete this?

Up to you.
Have you looked through the myriad of existing case threads?
Websites?

I have and can’t find anything similar to the case Ive linked. Should I just look elsewhere or ask on Reddit?

For what it’s worth, I’ve always been a fan of the clear and silicone cases from Apple

I’ve never used a silicon from apple because I’ve heard horror stories of the stickiness from a pocket and lint.

I do like the idea of that silicon feel, similar to the pela I have. The pela is minus that sticky feeling. It’s almost like a dry slightly textured feeling.

Interesting. The grip isn’t anything I ever noticed. I never had any lint issues. The last couple of years I went clear. It’s so slippery it sometimes falls out of my pocket in the car.

And have your iPhones not gotten scratched/chipped by the clear case itself and/or the debris that pile up? So many threads on that topic that I've just decided to give up on clear cases altogether...

Oh not at all. I do the iPhone Upgrade Program and every year when I return it, it looks like it just came out of the box. I wipe mine down about once a week and have never had any buildup of anything.

Agree, the side power button was bad for me at first i.e. It would get pressed without me doing so, but after a few days it improved somewhat. My only gripe with my clear case is the lack of bottom lip area for protection. Otherwise a good case so far, for me.

Too early to tell about minor case scratches, that’s probably inevitable but I don’t mind that.
….

Speaking of clear (and non clear) cases I also have enjoyed the Spigen brand clear ones, as well as a black one.

I’m sure that this frame-only silicone case is the ultimate case for everyone
Benefits: cooling, premium glass back, grip is better because of the concave surface, no concern for MagSafe, lighter than other cases, no camera bump because the rim is higher than the camera

I got this case from a shop (forgot where it came from)

Cheapest JEtech TPU clear one. Every other case I’ve had was complete garbage including the Apple ones.

So I ended up getting the apple leather forest green to have some protection… I’d love to find a case in this beautiful green color. I won’t order from Nudient because I’ve heard horror stories of quality and such.

I was gonna say apple leather to me feels the best. I have the silicone too but the leather just feels so much better!

Ya, I do an insane amount of research on products and most of the stuff from Nudient was not good so I was like I LOVE this green but not enough haha
