Got my Peel case for my black 7 Plus. Fit and finish is great. Here are a couple of pics.

Its like a skin almost that you can easily take off and put on. I've seen the ad's but your pictures make the difference in knowing what to expect. I have and have been using the Apple leather cases but man that peel case is appealing for its thinness. Thanks for sharing.

How is the all around fit -- is it consistently tight all around the phone? One of the concerns and things I've seen happen is loosening over time and inconsistent fit.

It is now, but it was just delivered today. Time will tell how well it holds up. I am very finicky about iPhone cases, and only like the kind that don't add any bulk. This is the closest thing that I found to not having a case on at all, but it does mean that I can't use some docks with it because the hole around the lightning port is pretty tight.

Does it have a little lip around the camera to bump it off a table.
 
Do these cases show scuffs and scratches easily? I had similar cases by Caudabe, Tozo, and Spigen for my 6s and they scuffed easily. Looking for another minimal case for my 7.
 
It's hard to tell from your pictures, but does the Apple logo show through the case enough to be noticed?

I always have a hard time deciding on cases like this. I like when you can see the Apple logo, but I also do NOT like totally clear cases since dust forms under the case and it ends up looking bad after a few days, and I hate having to constantly remove the case to clean it.

The dark black semi-transparent color seems to solve this issue somewhat, as I'm guessing you can see the Apple logo just enough, but not see dust through the case.

Do you have an early revision of the case? On their website, the display picture for black makes it seem like there is a cutout for the Apple logo. Or at least the logo shows as more prominent than in your picture.

The first picture on this page: https://buypeel.com/products/super-thin-iphone-7-case?variant=29716430727
I ordered what I thought to be the latest revision of the case (after all, the iPhone 7 Plus was just released). I did notice how less visible my Apple logo is, but it might be a Jet Black version in the ad. The logo on that model is stainless steel I believe, so it would likely show more than the muted logo of the matte black.

Oh awesome, from the Peel cases I was seeing on their site, it seemed like they didn't cover the bottom; same way the Apple cases don't. But now that I see it does cover the bottom on your 7 Plus, I'm definitely interested. Is it see through at all? I prefer frosted clear cases that will show the Matte Black a bit.

See pictures at the beginning of the thread.
