Do you have a link for this?

You can get it in three different colours. Using it for a few hours now. I feel the buttons protrude out just a little bit too much and also my usual usb c charging cables simply don’t fit. (Anker Powerline III Flow). Hopefully the Ander one isn’t the same and hope it has a decent sized opening for to fit USB C plugs.

But again yeah it’s a cheap generic leather case from Amazon so I can’t complain too much. Feels good in the hand though.

Is the ghost case a fingerprint magnet? I saw best buy now sells brand in store and I am curious as I have been wanting to try the ghost case but I am not entirely sold on it.
Yes, the one from last year was a major fingerprint magnet. Maybe they changed the formula this year, but I don't think so.

Best color Apple silicone for the orange phone?

The Apple shadow case is the slimmest of all the cases I have. If you can deal with fingerprint smudges, the case feels great in the hand. I am not a fan of the ghost for the air, but like it for the PM. The Andar Aspen in brown is easily my favorite case for the Air.

You got any pics of that case showing the bottom. I’m just trying to work out if that case will be ok with my Anker Powerflow III cable. The leather case I got doesn’t go in. Cheers

Budget case king back at it with the Spigen Ultra Hybrid Magfit - frost white

So clean on the silver especially with the frosted back …great grip, lightweight, and smudge free so far too. Apple clear case going bye bye.

No CC button, right? What about the other buttons, are they clicky or a bit hard to press?
 
The Dbrand Ghost really looks fantastic on the Silver, top stuff!

Unfortunately, I’m not a fan of the full cover over the camera plateau as I think that hampers heat dissipation too much. Maybe I’m overthinking it, but prefer that case that just have a rim around the plateau for a more basic protection?

Isn’t the heat being dissipated through the screen?
 
Beats iPhone Air case in Bedrock Blue. ~32g alone (compared to only ~23g for the Apple Frost clear case) and ~198g installed. Overall I really like the feel. A bit slippery with dry hands, but it has better grip than the Apple clear and a bit more of a solid edge to hold on to when picking up off a table, etc. Basically soft touch hard plastic, but the fit is pretty tight and has a soft microfiber lining (back only, not the sides). Buttons are good and clicky but just plastic, so nothing premium like metal. For $36 from Amazon, I’m pretty happy with it. Been eyeing that Tech Wave blue Andar leather case as well.

A few snaps of the new Beats for the Air, in Granite Gray. It’s pretty nice—much improved over last year’s. It’s quite a bit thinner than the Apple Clear, and feels more snug on the phone. It really highlights the thinness of the Air. It has good buttons, an appropriate lip—all the usual boxes are checked. The texture is interesting; it has that sort of smooth-yet-grainy feeling of a fresh Apple Silicone case. It feels good now, but only time will tell if the finish holds up and continues to resist fingerprints.

Ha, we’re on the same wavelength (just posted my pics of the Beats before seeing yours). I also have the Apple Clear, and just ordered an Andar in Camel Tan this morning. 😊
