Used the Moft black leather for a day and I have a huge gash in the side of it. Having some concerns on longevity on these cases… but for $5 I can’t really complain. Headed back into the Enzo/urban fit for me though!

How did you manage to get a huge gash on the side of it?
I’ve been using mine for over a week now and it’s still perfect. Great case imo!

Not quite sure! I’m pretty sure it was from jumbling around in my backpack with my wallet and keys. I guess my only concern with the case and its longevity is the vegan leather nature and not having the same “self healing” properties that real leather has. It 100% is an eye sore/ feels weird in hand in that spot now.
Of course this is my anecdotal, one off experience but just wanted to share! For $5 for Verizon I’m not pressed though

Yeah longevity doesn’t seem to be good with these cases. They’re pristine for a bit but slowly start to deteriorate with time without any wrongdoing from the user.

I don't know if it's any different for Pro/Air, but Tekmomo and Ryan London for base 17 in black,
Other than branding being on different sides. Between the two I'm currently using YMW in my leather cases phase 😅

Not surprised. None of these companies are making their own leather cases—they’re all manufactured in the same handful of factories in China.

What's up with the leather cases from Bullstrap, WIIUKA, Lucky Coin, Good Wilhelm, YMW, etc.? Who actually manufacturing them?

I picked up the navy blue and it came yesterday. Nice case! I like it.

Shenzhen Supercase Technology Co., Aivi Leather Factory, Shenzhen X-World Technology Co., Dazec Electronic Co., and many others. Brands may use more than one supplier to meet demand.

Moft Oz Green - The color is much more muted than the videos and pics you see online. These pics with the orange background are pretty close to what the Oz Green color looks like in person. The last picture with the black background and different lighting show how this color can appear much more vibrant than it actually is. Quick iPad pics, it's all I have.

How’s it going, feeling any better?

Maybe a little better today. I do have the Flu, got some pills and some cough medicine. Hopefully I'll survive.
My nose feels like I've been using 60 grit sandpaper for Kleenex 😩

Decided to give another go to WIIUKA, but this time updated version with open plateau and closed bottom.
It is much better than older version. Tight fit, metal frame of the phone on the front is now evenly visible, just like Apple cases.

That looks nice! Exactly the same as the Bullstrap Contemporary but with a different logo and MUCH better price tag.

Currently out for delivery- so I’ll have a good look at it later this afternoon. Only concern is I’ve heard it slippery.
The logo is 10x better, imo. I feel like the bull on the bullstrap cases completely ruins the look.

The Moft will go back on before you know it. 😀

What do we think about this Moft? $59.99 is insane for a $5.00 case 😵
