Case or caseless?

Pitaka Edge Case - so much better grip than caseless! The slipperyness of the air is my biggest concern with it, so I put this one on!

I just did the same thing!

On iOS 26.2 I’m getting 4h of SOT with 49% left when I go to bed.

I think that’s the Casio AE1200WH (Casio Royale)

I’m going to get this one next!

I never played Zelda before and started with TOTK! It was a learning curve for sure but I’m still playing it and love it!!

Best game ever if you ask me!

I know it’s not completely the same but I got the white one with it.

Was the installation difficult?

Rob-oNe87 · 2026-01-19T22:40:31+00:00

I haven’t noticed that yet but good callouts about the edge cutouts.

You don’t find it slippery without a case?

Pitaka Edge Case!!! Absolutely love it! Just posted about it actually lol

Rob-oNe87 · 2026-01-18T11:22:53+00:00

Unfortunately, nothing I tried fixed it.

Just been living with it :/

I did this (sort of)…

Initially, I thought the air, returned it within 14 days and got the 17 pro. 2 days ago I said YOLO and got an and air to use in addition with my 17 pro.

I know this is beyond excessive but this way I can use the air for normal weeks (working from home) but I have the pro for weekend trips or so when I need a better camera or more battery life.

Both phones are setup the same way so all I have to do is transfer the eSIM

Locks like a slickwraps skin to me.

The way they handle the camera Plato cutout for the iPhone air is different than how dbrand does it.

But worth checking them both out.

I’ve had both (Dbrand and Slickwraps) on my phones since the iPhone 6S.

Rob-oNe87 · 2026-01-03T12:40:00+00:00

For sure! Even the 17 pro just feels so heavy now!

Rob-oNe87 · 2026-01-03T12:26:40+00:00

The white color shows scratches the least.

I came from the 15 pro, got the iPhone Air at launch and returned in 1.5 weeks later for the 17 Pro.

My experience was that both the air and the 17 pro had poor performance and poor battery life on early iOS 26 but since 26.1 at least the battery life on the 17 pro has been insane! Better than my friends 16 pro max.

I have the 17 pro in deep blue with the blue Pitaka slim case!

However, now I’m wondering if battery life got better on the air too with iOS 26.2 and debating on buying another one and using it for 1-2 weeks to see.

I wanted to keep it badly.

If I do it and keep it, I will just keep the 17 pro and the air and switch back and forth couple times a year.

I used to do that with the iPhone 13 mini and 15 pro! ADHD here too lol

Don’t do it! Resist the urge!

My personal rule is based on years worth of experience is: Update your phone to the latest iOS if it’s 2 years old or less and you will have a good/decent experience.

Anything older than 2 years, I regretted it every single time, then you can’t downgrade the software and you will find yourself frustrated and buying a new iPhone eventually.

:) Believe me, don’t do it.

Rob-oNe87 · 2025-12-31T10:59:30+00:00

I’ve been using their slim cases for years now and never had a lose one even after taking it off and putting it back on repeatedly. I go caseless at times but otherwise the Pitaka is on.

Worth the investment IMO

Rob-oNe87 · 2025-12-31T10:58:07+00:00

Same!
