That’s why I just get those $12 generic clear phone cases with free screen protectors on amazon. My current case is 3 years old and looks perfectly fine.

Oh just get a Spigen and stop settling for garbage. They're cheap and handle anything you throw at them.

I always get Spigen. Low cost, lasts forever. Highly recommend.

Thanks for the spelling correction 😉

Dude I had to look it up from my Amazon history, haha.

Wrong wording, correct would be:

They’re cheap and handle anything you throw them at.

Incipio cases are nice aswell

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 months ago

I wouldn’t call those $12 cases garbage. My case is $8 and it’s really high quality. It’s really slim but slightly raised on the corners by like 1mm for a little extra protection.

Is used to like the leather cases that these things replaced. These things are such a downgrade.

Both Bullstrap and Ryan London do a leather case that's higher quality and more durable than the first-party Apple cases ever were.

I had a genuine Apple leather case for an iPhone XS that I got maybe two years ago on step discount. I expected it to age nicely but it just got weird bumps and pocks on the edges.

Function over flashy
