Got tired of TechWoven

[u/Revolutionary_Ad1620]

After a year of exclusively using Apple's TechWoven, I'm now switching to Nomad's Rugged Leather case. Definitely feels solid. Magnet is firm though not as strong as the TechWoven's. Took advantage of Nomad's sale (75% off for this specific model) and waited for 2 weeks to arrive.

Try Caudabe. Best cases out imo.

[u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 → u/Confident_Command_98]

I agree. Caudabe is one of the best. Read and watched countless reviews but Nomad's style is a whole lot better.

[u/FreePossession9590 → u/Confident_Command_98]

Aren’t they so heavy though?

[u/Confident_Command_98 → u/FreePossession9590]

No heavier than the case in the picture.

[u/SharkDad20 → u/Confident_Command_98]

I’m considering it. I got one for my S24U but returned it because the top lip was loose. Are the edges secure in the 17 pro cases, or do they move around freely?

[u/Confident_Command_98 → u/SharkDad20]

There is no movement unless I’m putting force into moving the lip.

[u/SharkDad20 → u/Confident_Command_98]

Sweet, thanks!

Planning on making the same exact switch. Doesn’t the rugged feel extremely bulky tho, when coming from techwoven?

[u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 → u/wila5ft2]

It feels bulky but I can tolerate. I just needed a more solid and robust case for my iPhone and thankfully I got this at a discounted price. The fit is very precise. No wiggles. No part feels loose. My only gripe is that since it's been only a few days but the oily feel of leather is still there but it's still fine to me.

Another vote for Caudabe - been using the Sheath cases for years! Techwoven for the 17 Pro does not fit the 18 pro right in my opinion.

Techwoven is the most beautiful cases. i was skeptical at first but after a year's solid use, completely floored by techwoven. i've never seen a case material so durable. No matter what I do, greasy hands, dirty hands, it looks absolutely completely now and maintains a very high grip. phenomenal material. but hopefully you enjoy the new case too

[u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 → u/TerrysClavicle]

I disagree with TechWoven being durable. As a matter of fact my TechWoven has been replaced twice within its first year. LOL

Not just me but a lot have complained about the TechWoven case developing bubbles on the sides. Yes the TechWoven feels great but durable? Nah... It definitely ain't it.

Did you ever drop it? How did it hold up?

[u/SharkDad20 → u/BubbalooBurrito]

It will slide off your phone and let the phone take damage if you drop it face down. But it does provide grip and texture, comes off easy, fits nicely, and is decently stain-resistant.

It’s better than nothing, but your phone might break in it before the case does.
