Are you using the phone backs when you’re out and about? I was going to but I’m scarred lol
I used mine today at work and just made sure I was extra careful on where I sat my phone down and made sure it wasn’t on my lap when getting in and out of my work truck. I like the phone back but now I prefer just using my phone with the glass protector on the back and nothing else.

For me, the front and back are protected by screen protectors and the phone back. I think I want to install some matte skin for the side but with my past experience they just peel off quickly.

I ordered a leather case for my Air from Nomad. They've fashionably dressed my other iPhones in rustic brown leather. It arrived today and I really like it. Will have to keep an eye on the sides and keep my bumper case as a standby

Anyone have the Sienna Tech Woven? Considering it, depends on how it looks in person though.
I like the pictures I’ve seen of the one with the orange 17PM. Thinking about snagging one while they’re cheap on Amazon.

*edit* I ordered it. Amazon says it’ll be here sometime in November. 🥴

I’m thinking of just ordering the sides from xtremeskins and run an experiment see how they do. Although it wouldn’t be right now since I’m using a skin from QSkinz.

Literally had this in my cart yesterday and it was $75 and in stock. It was $85 before that and I ordered but then cancelled before it was in stock. Can you show us some pics of it with the phone?

This is the combo I’m most looking forward to. Total weight 180 grams. 10ft of drop protection (on flat surfaces, I’ll have other cases for hiking, etc). I’m looking forward to getting back to the feeling of older phones (smaller, lighter), but with the performance and screen size of modern flagship phones. Of course, YMMV.

Any update bro?

does it provide any screen protection? to safely place the phone facedown on a table? with a screen protector? thanks
 
I ordered a terra cotta silicone to try.

Feels nice, yep. No change in material properties at all in my opinion. Feels exactly as last and previous years did.

Anyone use a case with a built in card holder? I don’t use MagSafe, so I’m not worried about losing the functionality. Might be nice to get rid of the wallet and carry a card or two in the phone case.

This Bellroy one looks like it might be just right.View attachment 2565227

I dislike using card holder cases/wallets, and anything that attaches your cards to your phone. Don't get me wrong, its fantastic for convenience and I'd use them in a 'safe' location - but over in London (UK) where phone snatching is rife (I was a victim last year), I wouldn't want to be losing my bank cards along with my phone!
 
any1 here ordered Moft Movas case?
Just got mine yesterday. I like it, this is Oz Green on a Deep Blue Pro Max. Although I do tend to swap out cases regularly I've enjoyed the Moft Movas cases for the past few years. Last year not so much with the camera control cutout, but this year they have camera control and it works just fine. The fit and feel is the same as ever.

So I bought the blue Techwoven case for launch date but I returned as I thought I was going to stick with the Air.. now I want to order it again and there's a month lead time in the UK! Most of the colours are out of stock everywhere.
Amazon has the clear case on £37 (down from £49) but I'm liking the Beats one in Bedrock Blue at £25 (down from £45). Not fully convinced about the Caudabe Sheath.
