The Air with a case will be smaller than a Pro/Pro Max with a case. 🤷🏻♂️

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.
...when we have buyers remorse on Cosmic Orange this may be a good Plan C; several options of black, fiber or etc:
Hoerrye for iPhone 17 Pro Max Camera Lens Protector - [12FT Shatterproof Military Grade] [Strong Adsorption] Metal 9H+ Tempered Glass Camera Screen Full Cover Case Friendly,Carbon Fiber

I wonder if mine will progress soon, still in processing stage 😂Here we go friends
FedEx coming through on a Sunday …Ghost in the house.
Some additional comparison photos of the MagSafe battery’s and a 15 pro case next to the bumper.
The bumper has the same height as a naked (case less) iPhone 15 pro with a screenprotector on it.
Enjoy the photos.

I got my ghost for 15 Pro last week. It f*cks! The Apple Clear Case is most likely going back, although I prefer the open bottom and plateau…FedEx coming through on a Sunday …Ghost in the house.
Last years case made me finally realize I don’t need 10/20 plus cases for a phone lol …a solid 3-5 is all I’ll be needing this year.
I still have draws of cases that’ll never be heard from again 😂
I received the Sienna TW case for my orange 17 pro max yesterday. I've been using it in my 16 pro max. I've been using Apple Silicone cases lately (skipped FineWoven) and really miss Apple leather cases.
I'm very happy with this techwoven case. It feels great, I was worried what the back would feel like but it has a really nice texture to it and the sides have a subtle grip to them. I also missed the aluminum buttons from the leather cases, so nice to have that back. The Sienna color is more brown than I thought it would be but it should go with the cosmic orange. I'm very tempted to also grab a green or purple TW case.
Not sure how well the TW material will clean but I guess time will tell. The silicone cases were really good in that aspect if they got something on them, especially something wet. I've thought about grabbing a silicone case as well if I'm in an environment that would be prone to the phone possibly getting wet and/or dirty.
But it also would be nice to fully see the phone's color so maybe I'll consider a clear case or go case-free at times.

I can see that with the Ghost! I only run three cases anyways (Pitaka Ulta-Slim, Arc Pulse and dbrand Ghost 2.0). I may drip in another one or two…
Yes, 2TB Cosmic Orange 17PM 🙂
By the time I got the order through my date slipped to 09/30
Oh man that is sick! I think I’m going to have to, especially if I don’t get a green TW for my orange PM. All year Halloween vibes, totally my jam.FedEx coming through on a Sunday …Ghost in the house.
The same applies to every other iPhone model, or any smartphone.
The difference is that iPhone Air + case will still be lighter, thinner than a regular iPhone + case.
I'm also willing to bet (I haven't checked) is the Air cases are much lighter than the Pro Max cases since there's less material to cover; so you're ending up with less overall weight anyway.
What case is that?Anyone tried OpenCase before? I find the MagSafe rings ugly on 17 Pro cases, but I also hate the bulk/weight most cases add. Wondering if this would be a good compromise for days I put a case on:

OpenCase - looks like a smaller brand that launched with a Kickstarter previously and has been around a while now
OpenCase MagSafe Case for iPhone 17 Series
OpenCase is a patented iPhone 17 case for MagSafe accessories that prevents them from sliding around or shearing off, but also has a thinner profile and lighter weight than traditional cases paired with an accessory. And it optimizes charging by allowing you to charge directly on your phone with...

If you put this in a case it would feel like the 16pro without a case. So essentially you can protect the phone and make it feel like a naked 16 pro.
