The Bellroy website says it is 14.5mm thick. Apple Silicon case is closer to 11.5mm thick by my own measurements (I accept this is imperfect). So I am a bit confused. I have a 17 Pro btw.

Any chance of knowing the weight of the case?
Yeah, I had it for the 16 pro and it wasn’t any thinner than my lucky coin. I have a feeling (and am hoping) that LC releases one with a fully open camera bump.

Whaat. Is that new or did you treat it? Damn thing comes with a year's worth of patina. Or is that one just made from the oldest cow in the pasture haha.
Straight out of the box! I was hoping for something lighter in color and less bulky feeling. I’m consider their traditional leather case. I prefer the look of the tan but that horween in rustic brown looks amazing in people’s photos.

Nomads brown Horween is very different today. I don't think it looks as good as the older stuff. Was going to get the brown wallet but since I have a Black Air, I went with the black leather and its really nice.

I just preordered the Ryan London leather case with the open bottom for the Pro Max. I hate that most leather cases have that awful metal ring around the camera bump. I find it obtrusive and annoying.

I think it was about a week, maybe 10 days to Vermont.

I ordered one (for 16 pro, but still should help you) on 9/24, arrived in US 10/2, and should be transferred to USPS sometime this week. I assume it will be delivered to me sometime next week 10/13-18.

Wish it was a closed bottom but I like this case so far.

Blackbrooke leather case.

I ordered on Sept. 15th. Was just told today another 8-10 business days for shipping. They clearly decided to add the camera control button later on and have no cases to ship yet. Also why they haven’t even added a photo of the case with the camera control button. Really frustrating.

What’s even more annoying is 1. Their website says they are in stock, when they aren’t and 2. Them telling this lie that they “sold out” right away. I find it hard to believe they sold out and not one person has posted a photo in this forum.
I also ordered my Bluebonnet on 15th, with it saying in stock with “2 items left”.

After no communication I emailed and they gave me the automated response on 27/09 saying first week of October.

I have since requested a cancellation and they replied offering a charging cable, saying it’s due to ship in another 8-10 business days (from today).

Timeline keeps on shifting, and website still says in stock. First and last time - extremely unprofessional and misleading.

Have since ordered and received from my usual brand and will double down on getting my refund.

Will follow this thread if anyone ever actually gets there case lol.

I ordered mine on October 2 and it said "2 items left" as well.

Hearing all the chatter in this thread I knew I wasn't getting mine in a timely manner so at least that cushioned the blow a little lol. It looks like a good case so hopefully it's worth the wait.

Exactly, must have mentioned they are a "small Austin studio" about 5 different times. And I could respect that if they were honest and updated their website to preorder. Still says 2 in stock and still no camera control picture. Just seems shady all around.

For now, Im enjoying the techwoven case so Ill keep my order and see what happens.

I cancelled mine. I was told I was going to have it shipped by this week. Emailed again to make sure and then said 8-10 days from this week. They also offered the cable and a $10 refund. I’d rather cancel then wait until stock gets better. I’m using a blue techwoven in the meantime. I also returned the Lonli edition.
 
Looks like Wilken has a leather lip iPhone 17 pro case on Amazon for $44

most of the Amazon ones look like a metal lip

Update. Tracking updated this morning and it’ll be delivered tomorrow. So exactly two weeks.

Has anyone with a metal camera ring case (Ryan London or other) does any testing to see if the case impacts signal?
 
Just received my Lucky Coin case for the iPhone 17 PM. Camera control button is not working as well as the TechWoven case. Not loving that aspect. Anyone else with a similar experience?

Unfortunately I saw a pretty massive reduction in signal with the Lonli Classic (which I returned). I assume this is the case with all metal camera rings, and something a lot of case manufacturers seem to be ignoring, which sucks. I posted about this a few pages back:

Mine is not only working perfectly, but it has surprised me as being the best feeling camera button I’ve seen so far other than Apple’s own cases. Maybe you got a bad unit? LC sounds decent with warranty claims, maybe try another one if they’ll send you one?
