Yeah silicon just doesn’t work for me.

Yeah makes not much sense from a business perspective.
It’s perfect for me. From a business perspective it’s genius.
Right. And depending on color like I’ve mentioned before but after having my Bullstrap on this phone I def can say I don’t miss the silicone.

I wish Ryan London handled their cases a little more uniform.. i don’t understand it from a business perspective to have it this way
I have my leather on for a day and instantly miss my silicone for form function and feel.

lol. Easy choice for me to keep the silicone. I can’t do this cutout button and every case is so bulky this year.

I can’t keep up with you lol. One minute Ryan London is amazing, then Luckycoin is the best case hands down, back to RL in black, but now the Apple silicone with the leather cases have cutouts and the too thick. What will be your choice next?
 
The silicone is elite this year. All leather companies cutouts are horrendous. And bulky.
Apple is to blame. They added this stupid button. Next year we won't be able to hold our phones to avoid pressing something. 🤣🤣🤣

You missed what I was talking about. I was not referring to Apple silicone. I was talking about the business move of Ryan London to only put the Cc button on the closed bottom.

Yeah I honestly thought for a second his account got hacked! I had to re read his few last posts to me!

Jerseyjon come back to the leather side!!! We miss you!!

How is it genius? There’s no uniformity whatsoever… people who are wanting the metal ring and an open bottom can’t get it. People who want a closed bottom with no metal ring can’t get it. And people who don’t want to deal with the deeper than normal cutout can’t get it without going closed bottom.

That’s a casserole of options and literally I think there should be a little more uniformity than that….i literally don’t understand the implementation of a metal ring on a leather case to begin with but why only on a closed bottom (just as one example)

I think he was confused. He was saying the silicone case from Apple with the camera button was genius.

Me too. I was referring to this as well…

Jon- obviously Apple got the button right on their cases. We would just like to see it come to the leather cases.

Maybe give leather another shot when the buttons come out. Trust me. I’m ridiculously ocd (only thing I can do differently is wash my hands with rubbing alcohol) and my black silicone case was looking shiny where it was rubbing in my purse. Where my hands rest. It didn’t look good despite my over the top efforts. I can’t stand fingerprints so I’m an overwasher. Believe me. And ask my husband who I drive crazy with it. Yet it still showed signs of wear within three months while I waited for my Bullstrap.

And trust me when I tell you how much I loved my silicone cases on my last phone. All I really used on my 14 pro max was my light colored silicone cases- I didn’t use leather once. But they still had the same wear but because they were light, it was less obvious. The dark ones show their age rather quickly. And that’s all Apple came out with so far for this generation iPhone.

Having my Bullstrap now there’s no contest in quality between the silicone and the leather. The leather feels far superior and durable. And I have a lot of confidence in it.

To each their own tho but maybe entertain leather again when the companies roll out their sapphire button this year.

Yup, just an honest assessment. If I were to use leather absolutely RL I just can’t do it this year. The cutout just ruins it.

Hope so, I don’t even use it 😂 it’s just the feel of the cutout makes the case look and feel so cheap. Not to mention how thin the silicone is. Disappointing to even have to say that.

I actually do use the button. When I’m at Disney I use it as a quick launch. I’ll give that it is easier with the button. It’s not bad on Bullstrap but again it’s easier with the button. I’ll be looking at the button version later this year. But for now I’ll enjoy what I have. The wait won’t be so excruciating since I have a quality case on in the meantime.

I’ll def try it knowing me. The silicone just feels so much better this year. All the leather is so bulky. And that cutout is just an eye sore and takes away from the case
As it is now I can’t use it. Refuse to.
