What cases are you using on your iPhone 7 Plus?

[felloffthetruck]

Wonder what Amazon will mail me this time. Probably a box of dog poo

If you need dog poo just let me know as we have 3 Great Danes and they produce.

The 6s plus nuud has the same little bump at the bottom of the screen though right?

Yes and theoretically screen real estate is same exact size. I figure screen cutout must be quite a bit smaller on Wetsuit but not sure until I get Wetsuit and have both respective protectors in hand.

If you keep both cases though wouldn't it make more sense to just use the dog and bone since they may not be cross compatible with the nuud screen protector?

So enlighten me here...

7+ is water resistant. Unless you have a job in an environment where the phone could sustain serious damage very easily, like in a factory or construction, etc., or you're into using the phone in some pretty extreme sports or other environments, what is the point of cases like the fre, nuud, and traditional otterboxes?

So many of you gals and guys on this thread seem to swear by those types of cases. I see so many of them around too. Even at my office, I work with people who swear by them and I know for a fact the most extreme place they use their iPhone is gardening. I don't understand the appeal of them.

For me, I feel like anything but the apple cases or other slim type of case turns the 7+ into a brick.

I work in a environment with a lot of salt. Gets into everything. Especially cuts LOL. I couldn't tell you how many of the work tile floors has won accidental phone dropping competitions. Nuud and Fre really don't seem too bulky to me?

Possibly. If D&G BoneGuard I could get it installed straight it would be be THAT bad of a gap on both sides.

Biggest downfall to Nuud for me so far is the super hard volume buttons. Not sure if they'll loosen up with time or not

If it's the same rubber as the fre it will. Mine have loosened up nicely after a months or so use

Really don't think its same rubber. Hard to describe though

 

[Tpence2177]

I almost always have my phone on vibrate anyway so even when volume buttons don't loosen up it doesn't really matter to me lol.

 

[blaine07]

I was thinking tho... have 30-40 iPhone 6 screen protectors that are normal clear plastic regular screen protector type. Might cut one down to fit my 7+ with Nuud. Im more worried about screen getting scratched than broke. at least temporarily

@blaine07 I keep saying I couldn't get the shades to launch the first time. Took more than once and was driving me crazy.

Again, you NEED and BENEFIT from the added protection. Most people probably just don't need it. To each their own I suppose, and I'm glad thee are options like that.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Absolutely agree. If I didn't work where I do, it'd probably be apple leather or Silicone

Shades to launch?

 

[blaine07]

Cut down a matte pet film protector. Perfect for now. I didn't cut perfectly straight but now mind can ease. any protection albeit not cut perfect over none. If I would've had a paper cutter I could've nailed it. Hard to do straight with scissors.

 

[Tpence2177]

Shades to launch?

Think she means the bottom menus.

 

[blaine07]

Think she means the bottom menus.

I've had no problem dragging from bottom to get them? I know on D&G Wetsuit I had years ago for 6 it was all but impossible to get top/bottom pullouts up/down but have ran into that problem exactly zero times with Nuud.

Guess I have to wait a couple weeks for my Rhinoshield Playproof, just got the tracking email and it's in pre shipment.

Anxious to see and hear about it.

 

[Shanicenicolle]

Apparently plus users buy way more cases... the 7 thread is not anywhere as active as ours

Yeah, it'll just be a shame to take off this Burkley case. With any luck my replacement SwitchEasy Numbers case will be here before I fly out tomorrow. It's in town, just needs to get here with enough time for me to take a couple quick photos for a review.
