Okay I love the wrap that’s so dope!!

I have the clear OtterBox Pop Symmetry I believe, and I wanna change up the look of my 12 Pro. Maybe I’ll order a wrap for it!

I prefer skins over cases but I have to protect my phone from other people. So a case is needed at times. You should try different protective coverings I learned that it helps with the resell or trade in value.

Ok, I might order the clear case next week. I thought the kickstand would add that extra weight I didn't want. The pro series are heavy out the box. Having multiple light clear cases is a must for me.

Nothing. You’re immediately more cautious.

OtterBox Frē waterproof case. Used to be Lifeproof. Great all-around protection while having a relatively thin profile and has MagSafe.

PhoneRebel Rebel Gen 4 case for me

I was gonna go for Mous Limitless 5.0 for their lifetime warranty and reputable protection. But the color button on PhoneRebel case just look so damn good

I use Apple leather case. Even though the quality is next to nothing when compared to the old leather cases, It's still not bad enough to compare with cheapo plastics. If I try to import other brand's leather cases to my country, It costs me probably double for what I paid for Apple one. To be fair, Apple case is not the worst quality though. It's just not as good.

​

I also use spells and curses of three lonely witches but that's another story.

iPhone leather case plus Mous hybrid screen protector. They are both very thin so they add no bulk to my 13 mini.

ideal of sweden, marine blue for iphone 13 pro sierra blue.. with cutouts where they have to be. very important is a cutout under the display, so the swipe up action is fluid and not interrupted by a bezel. the only one i could find with this cutout. a few years ago (last on iphone 11) the apple cases also had this cutout under the display. since iphone 12 it’s gone, except for the clear case.

I used to have a case ever since the“invention“ of the camera bump. But I wanted to be able to see the color of my phone and not hide it behind another generic black case. Now I’m Case free for about a month and so far it’s been wonderful!

Nope. I have been using UAG cases on all my phones since 2014. I swear by it. I dropped all my phones so much and not once has anything broken, all thanks to the case and a screen protector. Saved me so much money in repairs.

I’d love to not use a case, and have in the past. But feel as though I should as I have had some issues. I have a casekoo slim clear thing on it more. Still shows the purple phone color, and has likely saved me on a small drop or two already

I'd love to go caseless but I'm scared to scratch the cameras. Do you put your phone face down? I always like to keep mine face up, but I guess it'd be a change of habit if I were to go caseless.

Mr_Maooo t1_j5zfj8w wrote

I have the same case on it, just the camo version. The front got whitestone dome glass (I am really satisfied with that, so I always go with them even they are so expensive) and the cameras have the normal single piece stick on glass protector.

Glass screen/camera protector from Amazon + Mous 5.0 leather case.

My usual tradition is to use my phone with the case for a bit, and when i feel comfortable enough for an upgrade, ill go full naked and use it freely.

For anyone curious, the Mous 5.0 case is pretty nice. It’s not the cheapest case but it feels nice and protective. For me, it made the phone bulkier than i was expecting..especially the width, but ive gotten used to it.

Modified otterbox commuter. Cut the inner rubber piece out and added a magnet. Instant MagSafe commuter. Before you say “symmetry and defender XT” I don’t like either of them.

I believe you’re much more likely to scratch the screen(or back glass even) than the camera. The lenses are still (to my knowledge) sapphire crystal (ever since the 6 I believe?) so while it’s not impossible it would take placing it on like rough concrete for it to be truly affected imo.

Interesting. I just looked into the apple watches screen (i still have the series 4) & its the Ion-X & mine has taken a couple hard hits &there's hardly any scratches. & according to google the sapphire is harder compared to the ion x. So I think that eases my worries a little bit.

Bishime t1_j610mkc wrote

Replying to mgnwlf (#1,516,071)

Yes, ion-x is apple (and I guess the industries) best attempt at mimicking sapphire crystal. Its the best they can do to minimize the price on the watches but they’ll likely never replace it for camera lenses until they synthesize new glass tech.

at the end of the day, for even more peace of mind, you’d need something with a hardness scale of 9 to scratch sapphire crystal. So you’d basically need to be putting it camera down on sand paper (which includes materials like corundum—H9 hardness) to scratch it.

For even more reference/reassurance— sapphire crystal sits next to diamond on the hardness scale. Whereas even Ion-X glass sits a lot closer to quarts.

Basically the metal lining the camera and the back glass itself will scratch way before the lenses on the camera. Even putting your phone in a pocket or bag with keys will destroy the screen before you notice a nick on the camera lens

Hope that helps ease the mind. Also not to sub-nerd out on glass lmao, it’s kinda crazy how far we’ve come

Please tell me you have Vans' gear with it. Nice case! The backdrop is from Dbrand . They always send quirky things when you order from their site. I put all my gadgets that I customized on it because it is black and white and my gadgets are always colorful.

My biggest gripe with the product red iPhone 7 was the white bezel which was fixed with the 8, but the 8 series didn’t cut it for me looks wise. I also don’t dig the dual cam setup on the 7 plus, doesn’t look great

Replying to BigSadOof (#1,552,364)

I always selected the iPhone in the darkest color. It was something about the red at the time that helped me ignore the white bezel for a while. I liked everything about the 7plus it took me a while to upgrade to the XR.
