Did anyone pick one up?
I'm trying to see what it look like, particularly in Orange or Green for my Black Air.

Please share any colors.

:)
 
I ordered this shortly after ordering the iPhone and it arrived the day after. My old phone was already reset and in the return box. So the photo isn’t great, as I took it with my old iPad lol.

I got a chance to use the strap today when I went out. It’s great for my purposes, so I’m glad to have gotten it.

The orange looks nice. Thank you so much! Does it move a lot? Is the material flimsy?

The material feels pretty sturdy - not like something that would break easily. The strap is lightly magnetized, just enough so that when you have it shorter, the section in the middle - meaning the section that comprises two pieces of strap - actually stays together as if it were a single piece of strap. This is a nice touch (I hope that description makes sense.)

While I still hold my phone much of the time, I don’t feel I have to worry about dropping it when I’m out and about. And, I don’t have to put it down or away when I need both hands to grab something. It can just hang freely at that time.

Since I don’t like to carry a pocketbook most of the time, and prefer to just carry my phone and MagSafe wallet, it’s nice to have this additional accessory that affords me some more freedom while doing that. Most of my clothes have either no pocket or very shallow pockets, so nowhere to keep a phone.

I think the price is ridiculous and it’s no something I’d wear regularly, but I can see some practical uses when traveling. I had a lanyard case I used abroad a few years ago and I liked it.

Try wearing your phone like that walking through London.
I dare you.
I don't live in London. I live in Austin, TX. Stealing phones and pickpocketing isn't a thing here. That's Euro-ghetto behavior, no offense. (My brother is in London and he told me this same thing, lol.) I feel bad for y'all!

But I've always wanted to go to London. <3 Will take note of this, haha.

It's honestly fine as long as you're not waving your phone around in the tourist hot spots. Just be aware of two people on motorcycles as the one on the back is the one that would grab it out of your hand.

One thing about London over the past few years though, it needs a bloody good clean, it's filthy!
 
Wonder how comfortable this would be with a 17PM? That’s a heavy phone and I don’t know if having it around your neck would be super comfortable. Does anyone have it?

I have it and I actually like it. I wore it around Milwaukee yesterday and out to dinner. The phone wasn’t heavy to me. I had no issue with comfort at all.

Wife loves hers when we are out walking the dog. She sent the bumper back, but has a couple of identical Ringke clear cases that she has attached the lanyards to one of. She just swaps them over when needed.
