Ohh that's a nice colour match!
I am waiting for anyone who bought the blue leather case for their 17pro to see the colour matches well on their blue iPhone.
Yeah the fact they are asking $85 dollars for a case that actually has less material because of the massive cut out is CRAZY work. I love my leather limitless for 16 pro, but I don’t know if I can condone that price hike.
My green TechWoven came in today for my PM. Personally liking the quality and feel on this.
Hear me out… I’m getting an orange PM and want to embrace the color, I love spooky season, and I’m a girl 😂
This saw this from another forum, not sure how legit but thought this needs heads up if true:
Apple's guideline for case makers explicitly requires the grey area to not be "obstructed with metal or other conductive material including on the sidewalls". This likely have to do with the new arrangement of placing antennas around the edge of the "plateau". In other words, cases with metal there may hinder wireless reception.
Norween is nicer to hold than the Ecco, it’s not pebbly just not slippery and patinas way better too, Ecco just gets shiny and smudgy, I got it free but if buying now would only get the horween myself.
So probably a bad idea, eh?

Talking about the frame ( thats transparent but photo doesn’t give it justice ) or the white block where the Apple logo on the back ( thats solid white )
Hello, I need some advice on picking up a case for iPhone 17 base model. I had various cases for my iPhone 13 (Mous, Spigen, Tech21, Nomad) and my favorite was Caudabe Sheath. But I feel some other brands improved their cases in the meantime, so the choice is difficult. For 17 I want to just pick one and I can’t decide between Mous case, Caudabe Sheath, caudabe Paragon, DBrand Grip or Spigen Ultra Hybrid Zero One. Some other suggestions welcome, of course! I’m in Europe so I don’t have some options like Speck for example.
From past offerings Caudabe CC button was way superior than Mous. I believe Mous have upgraded their button for 17 series so might be worth a shot and it that 17 in pic does look nice.
I still believe though Sheath will be a better fit.
Everyone’s been talking about the Sheath for years in here so I’ve also preordered one now. 😂 Black with violet and seaglass buttons. Should hopefully arrive in October. 🤞🏻 I love the possibility to swap out buttons for more colorful versions.
No there was no source cited, the guy was posting in my local discussion thread on just iPhone 17 series cases, just like this thread. But honestly the CAD-ish writings looks quite legit. The previous guidelines looked similar. And it makes a lot of physical sense anyway.
When I first saw the antenna bands “connected” to the camera bump, I had concerns. I’m in agreement with you.
It seems that many case manufacturers go by leaked dimensions alone. I’m guessing only a select few manufacturers get actual info from Apple before release.
