    📲 Just realized I cut out my own MagSafe comment at the beginning 🤦🏼‍♂️ I tested all the cases on my HiRise Deluxe 3 MagSafe stand, Belkin MagSafe Car Charger, and ESR MagSafe Wallet. All cases here performed similarly, and the magnet strength is similar to Apple’s own cases.

    Thanks Stephen ! I took your advice and ordered the Ryan London case in black for my 15 pro. And let me tell you I can't thank you enough. It just feels so good , way way better than Apple's previous leather cases. As for the open bottom not only is it functional but also makes the phone look sexier and shows off some of that titanium beauty. Ryan London has also just announced an alternate design with a closed bottom and a metal frame around the camera. But I think I'm going to stick to the classical design. With either one of these designs I don't think you'll be disappointed. Great leather, fit and workmanship.

    I have both and here are a few things to note. Ryan has a stronger odor Ryan has a year warranty but not for any damage caused by the user Ryan can be personalized with names at the bottom portion Bullstrap texture is rougher which makes it grippier Bullstrap has a lifetime warranty Bullstrap is eligible for up to 2 cosmetic replacements per year Negatives, RL is cheaper but shipping is long for US users. BS is expensive but shipping is quicker for US. Both has magsafe ring but no alignment magnet (line below magsafe) Overall, they are both good, but I prefer BS for its warranty/replacement policy

    How was your experience with the fit of the Decoded leather case? Did you find it hard to put the phone in or take it back out? I got mine yesterday for my 15 Pro and I find it super hard to put the phone in, so much so that I’m concerned it might scratch the black titanium coating.

    Thanks for the info. Awesome video by the way! I reached out to the Decoded team about it, I’m hoping it’s just a matter of breaking the leather in for a while, and that it will eventually stretch out enough to allow a better fit and less friction on the sides.

    @beardfm I bought a Mujjo and their AirPods Pro case and returned both. The Phone MagSafe was terrible across three different chargers. One in my car, one next to my bed, one in my kitchen. All three released the phone with the slightest bump. Nice cases, but not great for MagSafe. I found the AirPods case to also be very sensitive in placement for wireless charging, so returned it as well.

It smells like an expensive pair of leather shoes, fits well, is low profile, has a lip to the screen (even with an ESR screen protector), the buttons click nicely and the packaging is sustainable, simple and personal. You can tell it is hand made too. This is a great example of a small company outdoing all the big brands. Oh, and the price was less than the other options. Anyone on the fence should just get one.
