I believe that LC and BS use the same frame so I expected it to look like this. Anyone that spends more than this for a case, dosent like their money.

That looks as good as it can. Much better than the Andar one. I hope by the 17 series every case company figures out a way to cover the button like the Apple Silicone case.

Probably the LuckyCoin.
Cool, I’ll check it out. But I’m noticing now that most of these third party cases have a large cutout where the camera control button is. I think maybe I’ll hold off a while. Hopefully Apple gives third parties the button, or maybe they’ll figure out a way to make it themselves.

I decided to get back into leather so I ordered a LuckyCoin and used my Bullstrap while I waited for it to arrive. Unfortunately there was a huge air pocket under the leather at the bottom of the camera bump and some weird stippling on the bottom around the speaker so it went straight back in the mail.

Having used both, I absolutely prefer the buttons and the open bottom on the BS. I’ve already used the warranty replacement twice so it’s more than paid for itself.

Nice to see LC upgraded their buttons though. I wonder how long it’ll be before they offer the open bottom variant.
 
I have the Aspen (delivered) RYAN London (ships the week) and I ordered the one I posted about from Belemay.

The Aspen is my 15 pro max case and I love it, but I don't like the cutout for the 16 models. The RYAN London I like their oval cutout, but I saw last year you could see the USB cutout wen look straight on at the phone...kind of annoying and I hope thats fixed this year or that a screen protector would fill that space enough to hide it. The Belemay I do not expect to be great, but just hold me over until the RYAN London gets here. I have the most hope for the RYAN London.

If the oval cut outs make using CC button difficult, then I might end up keeping the Aspen.

Mujjo was awful last year, smelled terrible and felt like plastic. Bullstrap with the closed Botton looks nice, but it's not shopping until November and I am not a fan of the leather camera bump.
 
I've got the following on-route...

Bullstrap open bottom (black), Nomad Horween (black), Ryan London closed bottom (black).

Definitely staying with black this year, and paired with a black phone should be an easy pairing.

I went Terra with the Black Ti phone. I had the black BS case on my 15 PM so I wanted some kind of brown this time around to switch it up. Cant go wrong with black on black though.

Has anyone’s Ryan London 16 Pro/Max case shipped? Still waiting on mine to ship. They did say it would ship this week though. I have that coming as well as the BS contemporary case in Ocean and the Nomad Horween leather back(not the full case).

Can someone link me the full leather black 16 pro nomad? I only see the ones with rubber on the side or am I missing something

Good lord! I have seen all the cases you have on the main 16 phone case thread. You have more money in cases than the phone. lol

[QUOTE="AndrewR]. In your opinion, traditional or horween? Looking for darkest black[/QUOTE]

I know you didn’t ask me, but I’d choose Horween every time!
