this case is the perfect alternative to leather, how ever it does not have that smell of leather we all know an love, nor does it it have the feel. however still a great looking and feeling case. This Brown Cactus Leather case looks fantastic on my Natural Titanium 16 ProMax

Solid case. Smooth but not slippery. Only downside for me is the color. I was hoping it would grow on me but I don’t love it. Would go with brown or black if I did it again.

Entire camera action button area exposed; no protection there. Bottom area where USB port located isn’t as well protected either. Love the finish though, just not enough device protection to justify the cost.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

The new and improved designed cases work seamlessly with Apple's new camera control button on the Apple iPhone 16 line of cases. Our engineering team not only found that the new notch does not diminish the drop protection of the case.

Beautiful color but did not feel it gave enough protection for my phone. I returned. The bevel on the top left a bit to be desired for my glass protection.
We are glad to hear that the retailer helped with this issue.

Stays true to the quality of the brand. I’ve dropped my phone several times and it has not damaged the actually phone itself. Slick and the design doesn’t not make it feel so bulky. Minimalist design

This is a very nice case with one exception. The large cutout for the camera control button leaves the edge of the iPhone exposed which could cause it to break if dropped.

purchase was a very great case. It protects my phone very well and I double down with protection to add a screen protector to it. No cracks at all so far definitely would highly recommend for slim cases for small pockets.

Great case. It does feel like the camera lens are exposed when you lay the case down on hard surfaces.

If you’re looking for a leather case, this is NOT the one. This is basically a plastic case with a stamped back made to resemble leather. It’s a rough pebble type feel. The front edges surrounding the screen are very rough and coarse. Is like sandpaper. The side camera control cutout isn’t ideal, but it is also not unusual amoung case makers. On the positive side, the button covers are great, well placed, and have a nice click to them. If you ok wirh a plastic case resembling pebble leather, this is a fine option. If you are looking for a more traditional smooth soft leather, this is not the case for you.
