I had at least 4 to 5 cases sometimes more. Now, I that I have 15 pro max I told myself that I am not going to buy new cases but here comes Black Friday sale and I have 3 cases added to my cart ready for checkout! I would like to know if it just me or a lot of iPhone users tend to buy a lot cases. 😂😂😂😂.

One. I've using an Otterbox Commuter on phones since I got a 5. Most of them were black but after all those years of black phones and cases I got a blue one.

Got a Spiegen case with my 13 Pro on its release and haven’t changed to a new one yet. Only time my phone comes out of it is when it needs cleaned

I usually buy a new case every year, and it's not an expensive one. $20-$30 ish for something off Amazon. I never change it unless a) I upgrade the phone, or b) keep the phone for a second year and then buy something new to replace the current yellowed/worn case.

I have to practice doing this one.

I went overboard with my 11 Pro Max. On my 15 Pro Max I have just 2 so far, a UAG one and a knock off leather one from aliexpress.

[–] Blissful_shadow32@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

One for daily use and another one for formal occasions?

[–] WiseTitan85@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Yes my daily driver is the UAG and the leather one is for when I need my phone slimmed up for my dress pants

I tend to buy an apple case with a new phone as a treat but normally I get cheaper ones throughout the time of having a phone, mostly for work as I don’t like using my expensive cases at work getting them worn quicker. But you can’t for wrong with an array of different cases imo lol

I usually buy a non branded somewhat good looking slim case and use it till its destroyed. It usually takes anywhere from 1 year to 1.5 till i replace it. My launch 11 pro has only seen 5 cases in its lifetime.

I’ve been rocking a slim otter case on my 13 pm for a year now. Thin enough but it’s also saved my phone from drops. At this point I’m at, at least, 10 drops since I got it

All good. Tempered glass screen.

The plastic is starting to get warped. Kinda icky looking now, I use it at work a lot

I usually have 3. One for around home (less protective). One for at work (more protective). One for when I want extra protection such as hiking, beach, etc.

[–] Blissful_shadow32@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Same like this. I usually have a case where I could place a lanyard.

[–] RIGGSMAGIC@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

I used to grab those $10-$15 iPhone cases left and right. Spent a small fortune on them! Recently, I wised up and switched to Apple cases. The silicone one is awesome—thin, protective, and worth the $40 splurge. It's way better than constantly dropping $10 here and there. Totally working for me!

[–] ThatGuyUpNorth2020@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

One. Only ever had one.

Why would I need more?

Always apple leather, now a Nomad leather (since 15Pro)

[–] Blissful_shadow32@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

So I guess I only need 1. Honestly, all my other cases are slightly used.

[–] RetiredBSN@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Currently using a $16 Onn case from Wally World along with a screen protector from a Pelican case that deteriorated over a couple of years on my 12 ProMax. It’s transparent, has MagSafe and has survived several accidentAl drops over the last year.

One to two. Typically keep my phone 4 years.

[–] bloodxandxrank@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

Been using mous on my iPhones for years. I’m a butterfingers and they’ve held up well. Usually only get one and it lasts a long time

Same! Got my first loopy case for the seven plus and realized I was ruined for any other case. Every phone I’ve had since has had a loopy case.

Usually I get a new phone per year so I only have the one case. But now that I’ve actually surpassed two years of having my 13 pro max I’m tempted to get a new loopy case just to change up the color scheme a bit.

I’m using the black sparkle now but the white sparkle is tempting me for the winter.

[–] acu101@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I’ve replaced the loop, but I’m still on my case with my XS max. I’m getting a new iPhone next year

[–] RoyalScarlett@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

My kiddo has my old xs max with the original loopy case I had for it.

I change the loop part up sometimes because I like to use the holiday loops. The case stays the same year round. I like the glow in the dark loops best and they are a bit softer I think, so I’ve actually worn a few out over the years but I hold it by the loop all the time.
