Which Apple case did you order or are considering for this color iPhone?

I am looking for a high quality leather case with camera protection. A bit like the Bandwerk Sport case for the 16 Pro.

In the meantime I got this.

I’m having a hard time deciding what case I should get for the blue 17 pro max I’m getting on Friday. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I ordered the Apple neon yellow silicone case, I love bright colors and since there was no pink silicone case this year I figured this was the next best option. I think it will be pretty on my blue pro max!
 
Just opened my delivery from Amazon. Same case that I used for the 16 Pro, this time in blue, for the blue 17 Pro. By the way, the 16 Pro fits nicely into the 17 Pro case - Torras Link to Amazon.

I add a magnetic kickstand ring - Link to amazon

I have a Spigen Ultra Hybrid in Crystal Clear ready for it but I'm also going to pick up a Sienna TechWoven for it as well.

Would it be possible to see a picture, please? I think it would look pretty cool, but I haven't seen the neon yellow in person. The closest Apple store is 2 hours. :oops:

I'm deciding between Tongate and ESR for mine.

The ESR case is rated for 25ft and a couple YouTube channels namedropped it as a sponsor. ESR also has screen protectors and lens protectors as well. Am leaning toward this due to the drop rating, but once it arrives it'll be easier to get a feel for it. No pun intended. 25ft may be overkill, but anything to minimize the risk of a dent at even a small 4' drop means 7x-, 8x-, 9x-, etc-grade case, should hopefully reduce the chances of that compared to a 3x case.

The Tongate case is rated for 18ft. The only possible thing is, based on customer comments, that the Tongate model has a metal hinge that might scratch the phone. Presumably it's the magsafe ring's hinge in the middle, but covering that with tape and otherwise not using the hinge as a kickstand would hopefully alleviate that potential issue. Once it arrives I can confirm how it's constructed, stay tuned...

Neither has an outer shutter cover (sigh), and the one brand I saw had more negative reviews than an electron nightclub.

I almost went with Supcase as I loved the model for the S25, but it's definitely lacking the shutter cover feature.

So many brands had surprisingly bad reviews regarding material or other quality that I started to question those, but for one brand (not mentioned in my post here), I'd be in agreement.
