Are Your Cases Ready?

@mlblack16 I'm experiencing delays as well. Like you, I ordered Ringke cases that left Carrollton, TX on the 17th. They just got to my zip code in Houston yesterday/Saturday. I expect them tomorrow, but I should've had them Friday.

I chose Amazon day delivery on the CaseBorne, so I'm not expecting them until Thur, but I had late deliveries twice last week.

I ordered directly from Ringke on Saturday and my order came today.
 
Purple is my favorite color and I use popsocket so don't need a kickstand but like this one. I sent it to my husband they make it in black. I like how you don't have the white sticker ring but it says magnetic and you can use the kickstand either way hubby will like that. I may get one and then only use the pop grip when videoing at concerts to hold the phone. Cpmany is sixbox anyone heard of it?

Yeah, that's how it works. Just make sure the car dock and your case have a strong attraction. Not all magsafe magnets are created equally,and your phone will fall off if they are weak magnets.

I have the Popsockets popwallet and it's pretty cool. Only downside Vs a traditional popsocket is that you can't place it wherever you want.
So I use a popsocket now the adhesive kind and one time I bought one and it was too small when I opened it I had to return it. It was hard for me to hold it and I didn't know their were 2 sizes so now I am worried about the mag safe round grip being small and it's expensive but I guess I can return it if I don't like it.
 
Why can't I decide? I'm worried about ordering a case from a company I've never heard of. Anyone ever had this OtterBox symmetry Stardust case? Not sure I like the back where the camera is but I may go look at it at Best Buy tomorrow It says it's in stock and they have their pop grip magnets on sale $3 off. So maybe if I get a case from them they'll put the ring on it for me from the pop grip

Because of you I ordered a round one, I didn't know they existed, and they had a Gengar one so here we are lol I will let you know if it is the same size as a normal one but it definitely will be because Magsafe rings are quite big
 
Dear S24U,
Daddy is ready for you to come home....

My Tech21 case has a USPS tracking number but it hasn't been shipped out of their Mississippi warehouse yes. Am being told tomorrow. Only ordered one case this year for the first time in a while.

I may have to jerry-rig my S23 Ultra case and cut into it a little to house my S24 Ultra until the new case arrives.
 
Has anyone ever had an insignia Best Buy case It's $20 it's really cute but I just don't know how protected it will be I'm trying to decide if I get it then I have to put the ring on the back of the case. Verizon had the casemate that I want but it was for the iPhone and it already had the ring built in on the inside of the case It was so cool but the one for our phone you have to put the ring on the back of the case. And then Best Buy said they sell a two-pack of these magnets by morphie that you can put on the back of your case but the PopSocket comes with a white ring. I'm just worried about placing it in the right spot but I really like this insignia case And then they had the OtterBox stardust symmetry but I didn't really care for that as much.

Cute! I like the Insignia but can't recall owning one. I had that Otterbox one year and promptly returned to BestBuy. I found it uncomfortable how I hold the phone, too bulky for the amount of protection, and overly slippery. Know that any clear based case may yellow with time.

If you can feel them on the phone that should help - check the lip around the edges for an idea of protection. I don't go for heavy duty, but like a bit more than a super slim or softer silicone provides. A clear case is generally fine for me, but finding a good heavy duty clear is harder if that's your preference. What I do sometimes is look at reviews for the year prior to see pros/cons. Keep in mind, sides weren't as protected before due to curved displays vs this year.

You'll have more peace of mind with some retailers like BestBuy where you can return if you don't like it. For me, the hesitancy is that all of the cases add up ($), and I can only use so many. I tend to develop favorite/go-to brands as a result. But this flat screen has me more willing to branch out.

Editing to add, Case-Mate is another popular brand with some sparkly options I noticed when browsing. Velvet Caviar has some sparkly ones if I recall correctly, too, and their cases I've found to be reliable (good balance of protection but not adding a lot of bulk). I do agree that fun options with magsafe built in are harder to find.

Verizon had this casemate that I liked touch of pearl someone on here got it but they had one for the Apple phone and it had the MagSafe ring built inside the case it wasn't on the back of the case It was so cool. If they did that with this case for the 24 ultra I would do it in a heartbeat and I wish I could see a picture of this with a purple phone lol. But for now The insignia one was $17 on sale and then I got this pop grip magnet but what I'm worried about is putting that round white magnet on the back of this case and it fitting right and holding tight. I asked geek squad if they would do it to make sure if was in the right spot and done right but they wanted to charge 7 bucks. I didn't care for the OtterBox. And the worker said the Insignia one looked better protected around the camera.

But at least I got the magnet popsocket so maybe I'll find one more case that I like that already has the ring on it. He showed me this 2 pack of Morphie rings that magnet to any case but they were black. I need one more case I guess and maybe not clear if I keep this one we'll see. I just want the phone already.
