I've typically avoided Bellroy because they used rubber sides in the past. Looks like they also finally released a full leather case. That agave color looks nice.
Got a tip for us?

Its been a few years since I last used a Bellroy. Not sure why but it seems that the leather the use for their Samsung phones is different that what they use for the Apple phones. The Samsung ones seem to patina like normal, but Apple ones peel like the old 12-14 Apple series & Mujjo cases. So I guess it remains to be see which leather they are using on the 16 series. Their cases are similar to the Nomad modern cases but I think Nomads leather has been better.
Good eye. Didn't catch that. I'd imagine that case will look weird when the back darkens but the bottom rubber remains the same color.
They finally made a full leather case for the iPhone.
Edit, whoops, caught that’s its rubber as usual. Don’t understand that.
Yep. BS with their usual new phone BS.
I noticed on the contemporary (closed bottom) they have the new colors available for preorder for the 15s too. I wouldn’t mind a slate one but after owning the sienna and the lucky coin I can’t bring myself to pay $90 just to get the slate. That’s just crazy for basically the same case as the lucky coin
Yeah... unless I have a bunch of leftover rewards points or they make an amazing exclusive color, I'm happy sticking with my Ryan London and LuckyCoin.
Thank you!
Is the microfiber inside soft enough, and all the way to the edges, to protect scratching or getting glue on the iPhone?
Just to clarify, this is the Dockem case, correct?
From what I am seeing, I like this case!
Bullstrap finally posted a pic of what their cutout will look like

Andar's looks hideous. I went with the Terra with a Black Ti phone. Thinking the darker colors will look less obvious.
This is much, much better than Andar. Not that I love BS that much as they not a little shady, but they did better with that.
Picked up a black Luckycoin for my 15PM as I’ve had a Bullstrap Ocean since launch and have always missed having a case that works with all wallpapers.
Gotta say, I’m pretty impressed. Feels and smells great but I definitely prefer the buttons on the BS.

Welcome to the LC club! I'm about a month in on mine and still love it as much as day 1!.
I really like the way the natural TI looks with the leather. I was always a black phone guy also.
I still love the way a black phone looks in a nice tan or brown case.
Debating getting the 16 pro in black. Not sure what case, but probably the BS minimalist for buttons. The camera control cutout seems the best so far, and then wait and see what LC does. I just prefer the way BS covers the buttons in leather on the minimalist.
Hoping the wife comes around to me getting the 16 pro. I got the Ultra 2 in black, and she’s not real keen on me getting a phone and watch. Although I didn’t get anything last year and she got the 15 PM after just having the 14 PM.

I'm debating on swapping my ultra 2 for the black one.
