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!

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
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.
One for daily use and another one for formal occasions?
Yes my daily driver is the UAG and the leather one is for when I need my phone slimmed up for my dress pants
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.
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 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
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
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.
Same like this. I usually have a case where I could place a lanyard.
One. Only ever had one.
Why would I need more?
Always apple leather, now a Nomad leather (since 15Pro)
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
So I guess I only need 1. Honestly, all my other cases are slightly used.
One to two. Typically keep my phone 4 years.
One. The loopy case
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.
I’ve replaced the loop, but I’m still on my case with my XS max. I’m getting a new iPhone next year
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.
