what if we drop it?

Seriously?

We're looking at the same thing, right? It's very easy to see where the phone is and is not protected. If it falls on the leather, it probably won't scratch. It probably will have a modicum of impact resilience. If it falls on the exposed portions, it won't. It hurts to type that because of how obvious it is. This is their minimalist wallet "case". It sticks on the back and flaps around the front.

I liked my old one on my 6+. If i ever need a wallet case, I'll probably go with this one again.

I've wondered why no companies are offering a real leather, or fabric, peel and stick wrap for iPhones, iPads, MacBooks. This is close, but the fact that it leaves so much of the iPhone exposed and appears to be overly thick, it's missing out on what you could do with leather.

You should be able to take leather, apply a pressure sensitive adhesive to the back, die-cut, or laser cut it and allow it to wrap around any iPhone like a typical vinyl wrap. The same could be done with fabric, with either providing a great level of grip and protection, without needing to add thickness for a plastic case.

I have a noduscollection.com access 3 case. I really like it, especially since I can remove it and put back easily.
