Just ordered the Nomad "Traditional Leather Case" in black, as I like the non-indented plain sides on it, with stripped metal non-volume buttons on each side (to help differentiate the non-volume from the volume ones, by touch). Also got their "Wrist Strap" too, to try it. Ships "by 20 Oct" so only a ~month after my lovely blue 2TB 17PM comes. Will get a cheapo Amz one until then.

The new TechWoven I'm not convinced by compared to leather – sorry Apple, but nice try, haha!

Is the screen resolution the same 1320X2868 on the 17 Max as the 16PM?

I can't seem the find the specs :(

Buy the orange and Apple releases the flat black Pro/Max in a couple of months, that's going to suck :confused:
 
Spigen UHTM went the same route as Apple with an opaque back?! Boo. They have different color blocks but damn. May be a pass this year for me.

The Arc Pulse went from 10 foot drop protection on the 16 Pro to 3 foot drop protection on the 17 Pro. I wonder why?

The website says 3m/10ft, so it might be an error in the graphic.

I ordered the green tech woven for the orange 17 Pro Max. The color combo looks fantastic. If it's not a very good case I'll return it and get a Benks Aurora Armor Pro which was my favorite case for the 15 PM.
