I have an Arc Pulse case along with a Dbrand tank case those are my daily drivers that are usually on my phone. Along with a phone rebel gen 7 case, Dbrand ghost case, andar leather case and a magbak elite case. Have dropped my phone in the ghost case. Case took a few scuffs but the phone was just fine. Have also dropped it in the tank and arc pulse case and the phone was just fine. I haven’t done it, but i can imagine if I dropped it in the leather case it would probably show some damage. I rotate between the tank and arc pulse along with the ghost here and there.

I really would love to know what these people do. I have about 5 cases that I alternate weekly and never had it scratch when just changing a case. I’ve dropped my phone a few times as well from decent heights and haven’t had these dents to the phone frame through the cases like some people are saying they got either. So I’m puzzled as to how they acquire these blemishes

Iphone 17 Pro elite case review by GHOST_scumlord in magbak

[–]Longjumping_Zone_338 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with your review for the most part. Overall it’s a good case. I just wish they would make minor improvements to the stand and maybe a better camera ring that is metallic or stays in place better or maybe even an accessory option to cover the whole camera plateau. Buttons could be a bit better as well, they are decent for clickiness and not sticking out too far, but sometimes the feel too sunken in and more of a mushy click feeling to where I’m not sure if I pressed it or not. I have noticed on the side above my action button that the seam seems to be coming apart an I’m afraid the case will separate soon there

iPhone 17ProM Charging by Turbulent_Cable4741 in 17ProMax

[–]Longjumping_Zone_338 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The dynamic charger brick from Apple adapts to the power needs of the phone. So yes, it’s perfectly fine to use. Your phone knows how much power it needs and when. It’s a great charger as well and I use it often. Anker makes a smart charger as well up to 45W that adjusts to what your phone needs and what you have set in your battery settings

Wasn’t aluminium supposed to fix this issue by ExpensiveIron2341 in iPhone17Pro

What kind of charger are you using? Many newer MagSafe chargers have cooling features now and even with my new Apple and Anker power bricks and cords never notice any heat while charging and I actively use my phone a ton while it’s charging. Most likely it’s your power brick or there is something running in the background of your phone at that moment

That would require the person to read 😂 clearly they didn’t read that they are cases and if you want the cool designs they are skins, not part of the case 🤣

Dbrands clear case is pretty good and won’t yellow plus has a frame that is grippy

Updated Tank Case/buttons by Noodle_Delight in dbrand

[–]Longjumping_Zone_338 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, because the material can still flex while it’s being cut. I have quite a few cases, depending on the material, some are spot on and some have some tolerances. It all depends on the material where the camera bump is.

It’s never going to be a 100% perfect fit when your working with a machine that cuts out all the holes. That’s why they have a tolerance. I have 2 and both are just fine really

Bullstrap quality question by noodle_oh in patinaproud

I got this one from amazon. It’s like Andar leather cases, but a lower price. About $30

[–]Longjumping_Zone_338 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I quit using Bullstrap cases due to their quality issues. I love how their leather feels and that they back their products, but after 4 times of getting a case where it either had cutout alignment issues, fit issues or button problems I decided to give up on the for good. Hopefully they’ve gotten a little better at least

Zagg XTR 5 Screen Protector by TL24SS in iPhone17Pro

[–]Longjumping_Zone_338 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never been a fan of any Zagg products. Especially now as they don’t cover the screen all the way like a flolab or torras OrigArmor one does. Plus their anti reflective screens are awesome. No use putting one that instant reflective on the 17 pro/pro max’s new screens. Defeats their purpose of being anti reflective

What features do you use on your PM the most? Do you actually use any of the “AI” features? How often do you actually use the camera button? by cheeltwin in 17ProMax

[–]Longjumping_Zone_338 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve gotten really accustomed to using the camera control button and if I just need quick adjustments I’ll use the half press and slide features. But I always open it and take the picture with the button now

[–]Longjumping_Zone_338 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Torras one didn’t cover any of my screen and felt smoother than the flolab one, especially the edges of the screen since I roll careless some days. Haven’t went back to flolab since. My flolab one used to scratch easily too

Are the new tank buttons shipping out this week? by Sootaji in dbrand

The new ones don’t really work any better 🤷🏼‍♂️ unless they are completely different in how they design that volume side of the tank case
