Actually, yes. It creakes badly on both sides. I might give it a shot for a few days and see if that changes anything, thanks! But yeah, real disappointed in BS overall.
Wallet has been good so far, but I’m only using it an hour or so each day. Magnets are quite good combined with the Nomad case.
I prefer all leather as well but holding in hand compared to my all leather wrapped case, its pretty obvious just by feel that the tpu one will have better drop protection.

+1 to this. After a couple weeks of use the sharp buttons aren't really sharp anymore and you don't even notice them.
Just got in my replacement case and i'm "breaking" it in again
leather provides plenty of drop protection and is appreciated for its qualities when damaged/aged
and it just looks way better as a whole shell
I had to do a little super-glu-fu to put my leather back together after a bad fall but it still looks like it’s healing as the leather patinas.
I actually really enjoyed the TPU sides on my Nomad last year. Not saying it’s better or worse than a full leather shell but it definitely has its advantages.
So the buttons on the new case feel the same as the old case after a couple weeks use? Do you have to send the old case back?
Whats the weight and dimensions of the andar? Andar was the thickest leather case i had for the iphone 14
I got two bare cases, 2 weeks apart and they both have very sharp buttons. Very disappointed.
New Ryan London for the win. Got black. Just perfect. Also got their card wallet and am very impressed with quality. I’ve had bullstrap, Apple, and Andre in the past and this is a winner for me.
Me too, mine still says item received by royal mail since Dec 1st. Hopefully it changes soon though.
Yes metal camera ring. I paid for ups 2-3 day shipping. Really enjoying it so far. I will take pics later when I get home from work.
That’s a great looking case. I used their open bottom case in black for a long time.
Yeah it really annoying because other than the sharp buttons the case is great. I’m wondering if it’s just the tortora that has the issue. I know someone posted the cinnamon on here and said their buttons were good.
My black BS has sharp button edges. I’m waiting for a replacement.
Other than that the case is excellent.
Strong magnet.
Great leather feel.
One thing that almost all the cases have that I’m not a fan of is the aluminum camera ring. It’s going to get scratched up and that won’t look very good. I would like a different material there. I know one or two other cases wrap that part in leather but I really don’t like the bulky look of that.
