Cretanbull Onyx (Black). Definitely the real deal! Very similar to the Ryan London as predicted. Basically the same case except there’s a logo on the back. Fit was very tight, almost too tight but i’m sure it’ll be fine after being on the phone for a few days. impressed! good option for US buyers, assuming they come out of preorder shipping speeds.

the cretanbull seems to have much stronger magsafe magnets than the ryan london.

Now I have to get one! Both cases looks awesome. That logo looks so much better that the bullstrap’s full bull imprint.

Heck yeah! Waiting for my Ochre case to ship. Looks like a great option for US buyers.

Wait, did Cretanbull raise prices? I see a Black Friday sale for $54 but it appears regular price is $74?

Gotcha, I didn't notice that when I went the first time.

Symmetry matters.

Leather: 10 - Looks, feels and smells perfect. Love the Marine color; it’s not quite as varied as Bullstrap’s Ocean but enough to look great.

Buttons: 6 - The button surfaces pretty much sit flush with the leather but you can see some beveling where the leather has some variability in the edges. The buttons are the same as those on Ryan London’s but his edging is superior.

Screen Protection: 10 - Perfectly even all the way around the screen, with just a touch of raisivity keeping the screen protector lifted from a surface.

It’s got the new leather slipperiness so I’ll have a good hold on it for the first few days. Really looking forward to the coming patina.

Are those buttons black?
Marine looks quite identical to Andar Navy imo🤔

Is it any better than the RL though? I have a black RL and a Saddle Brown on order.

CAN THOSE THAT RECEIVED THE CRETANBULL TALK ABOUT THE STRENGTH OF THE MAGSAFE ON THE CASE? IS IT STRONGER THAN RL? WEAKER THAN APPLE? ABOUT THE SAME?

I POSTED A FEW POSTS BACK ABOUT HOW THE CRETANBULL MAGNETS SEEM STRONGER THAN ON THE RYAN LONDON CASE

they're pretty much exactly the same. the cretanbull packaging is more premium though!

THANK YOU BROTHER. CAN ANYONE ELSE CHIME IN ON THE STRENGTH OF THE MAGSAFE ON THE CRETANBULL CASE?

It’s too loud in here 😑

Here us the difference in my RL and BS case. Not sire how I got so much red in the RL.

I think they both look good but I think I like your RL case more. I think that over time its going to develop a much nicer color / patina.

Bullstrap managed to send me the correct case this time. Yay.

Smells great, feels like how I remember the 13 Pro case felt when new, MagSafe magnets seem stronger than on the 13 Pro case. I still can’t believe it took them over 2 months to get it right but I’m satisfied enough to put this whole thing to bed. Let the patina process begin!

 

[Bacong]

that looks great!
