I prefer the Apple Case because after using both the Bullstrap is bulkier, weak magnet, cutouts not that precise, bottom cut is more uncomfortable for the pinky....
But that's just me.
Got a tip for us?

Is it harder to press the power up button than the volume buttons? For me is it a little bit harder to press. (On the apple one)
Thank you! The volume up/down buttons are the same, but the power up button is a little bit harder to press.
Is there anybody around here that has been using an Ocean Bullstrap case for a good amount of time?
Touched today my ex 8 plus with product red leather case that my mum is using now. Considering that the case was bought in 2018, completely a different world compared with 12’s leather.
Guys, how do you care about leather cases all around? (Bullstrap, Apple, etc.) Do you use any conditioner? What do you recommend? Should I care about my case, or just use without conditioner?
Just came in. Had to sneak a snap on the wife’s 12 Mini.
She’s a beaut for sure.

I just got my kings loot executive blue leather case for the 13 pro in the mail. The leather quality is extremely nice and has the strong leather smell. Bottom is covered and buttons are perfect! The lip is just the same as the apple leather case. It’s a little dark (comparable to the midnight leather case). This is just like the apple leather case but with way better quality of leather. 👍🏼

2.5 week update on iPhone 13 mini golden brown leather case patina, very happy with the progress very even patina complete with factory cow stripes, gives me the bullstrap sienna vibes but the quality and fitment of apple, last pic is day one still plenty of weathering in to come but after stripping the coating I’m very sure it will look like the old iPhone 6-11 saddle brown cases.
Not sticky at all and has the shiny sheen of leather unlike the rough texture that comes with sanding the leather

Small magic erasers from woolies if your Aussie you’ll know where that is haha and 100% isopropyl alcohol very soft cloth and take your time it takes hours to get it off without too much rubbing cos if you do rub too much you’ll end up wrecking the grain of the leather and making it rough when it dries out
It really is. The stripes and color variations make it look like you’re actually looking into some deep green water.
I’ve tried so many leather cases over the years and there’s really nothing like it. I compared it to my Ryan London and color aside, it’s the exact same case.
That’s also what I love about my ocean Bullstrap. Its crazy how accurate it resembles the deep sea. Mine is so dark right now but I still love it. Now it looks like the ocean at night. It’s cool cause you still see the deep dark blue in certain lighting and outside it’s just sexy as hell.
