Can anyone tell me if the frosted Caudabe Synthesis is a case that gets oily or greasy easily? I’m pretty OCD when it comes to that sort of thing, so that’s something I want to make sure of one way or the other before ordering. Any insight?

I don't think you'd have to worry about either of those with the Synthesis. The back is a hard plastic that doesn't retain fingerprints or get greasy. And the bumper is a firm TPU material that doesn't get greasy either.
 
Stores didn’t yet have the new silicone cases, but regardless, picked up the Purple Fog Silicone Case, here it is on the Deep Blue 17 Pro out of the Apple Store in the late afternoon shade.

I think the case compliments the blue phone pretty nicely and the purple is a nice rich shade. They could have released this colour for Spring and it would have been quite passable, in fact im pretty sure they released a very similar purple case for a previous generation iPhone spring refresh.

Exactly same here.

In pictures the purple doesn’t look much different to the blue silicone but in person it does. Really happy with this combo.

Arriving today thanks to this thread for a couple of those choices especially the TW. Pro Silver. I really wanted the Pitaka milky way case but it runs $100+ in Canada.

I need to grab a TW I guess.

I am kinda excited to try these though; hoping fits with cases.

I like these camera lense stickers. Have some from GIOPUEY. They fit with every case I tested (with the TechWoven too).

What's the go with the leather back mous this year? good or bad?
The Mous limitless cases this year are excellent (in my opinion). I know they've had criticism in previous years which I read about but from what I can see, Mous have listened to the criticism and rectified the issues. I got the Aramid Fibre one a few weeks ago and the case feels great - nice and relatively soft (I previously had the spigen rugged armour which was way too abrasive for me and not comfortable at all). The limitless is comfortable to hold with a good enough grip and just looks stylish and feels so protective. It also feels very durable. I've held it outside with one hand and it has never felt like it was going to drop. For me, the case is proof that a case doesn't need to have sides that feel like sandpaper to have a good grip. But of course people like different cases. I was considering the Spigen Enzo Aramid but from what I have read from a few reviewers, the Mous is more grippy. Plus I think the case looks more stylish but that's just my opinion.

I am also tempted to buy the Apple silicone case as a second case but if it attracts a lot of lint and dust then I think it's going to annoy me too much.

Damn, a ten pack for $7.99 - need to order some as I'm on my last one and it's not on perfect.

Has anyone used the ESR frost black case on the black iphone17 base model?

I am just wondering if it actually makes the phone look black or very close to it. Some of the other frost black cases just make the phone look a darker grey in my opinion.

Two beautiful cases arrived today.
1) The Flolab in Stealth Black Clear that I ordered about three weeks ago, which is just a joy to hold.

It’s a fingerprint magnet, for sure. But easy to clean again. And grippier than the frosted version. Love it.

2) The Torras Q3 Air in Purple Aurora.

I had the Q3 Air here before the phone was released but returned it because I was not happy with a few things (the price among them). They have since changed one of those things (covered the ring base inside the case with some sort of rubber cover) and came out with new colors and then I remembered I'm an adult with adult money and can buy what I want 🤪🥰 It came with orange plastic buttons installed, but aluminium buttons that match the color of the ring were included. Swapping those was not easy and they rattle a little, but they look so much better. I’m a fan. It feels almost minimalist, even though it’s pretty heavy. So pretty though 😍
I like these… but I have a question: is the mag Safe Ring integrated into the case or is there a raising inside the case? (I've read that it left imprints and scratches on the iPhone because of it. Like the Spigen.)
