Bullstrap Premium Leather Phone Case Compatible with Apple iPhone 13 and MagSafe Charger, South Beach Edition

This is third one just like this for three different iPhones series. Great case, I like its look and feel. Has protected the phones well.

First of all I want to say that I have a lot of phone cases. I like switching it up depending on what i’m doing. And I ALWAYS come back to the BullStrap. Amazing leather quality, feels great in the hand. Very clicky buttons (at times can even be a little too sensitive) but other than that, solid buttons. Build quality is amazing and best of all, BULLSTRAP LIFETIME WARRANTY. That’s right. You pretty much buy one case and have up to 2 cases per year for a replacement if your case gets damaged or worn out. Amazing! Does it get better than that? I think not. Also, the Patina on this thing is superb! I’ve only had it for a few months and it’s starting to look amazing. I uploaded a picture of the day I got it vs. how it currently is with the Patina. Definitely recommend!

Very nice, actual leather case. The patina (after 3 months) makes it look fantastic. HIGH recommend

This is a beautiful made from thick leather. I have dropped this case onto concrete and other abrasive materials and the dents and scrapes usually buff out easily with water or leather lotion. The grey-white color is also striking and very lovely. Additionally the MagSafe magnets are strong and allow it to get clasps to car mounts and wireless chargers easily and accurately. Within the first few days the edges get stained brown from handling it. The only problem is that this case is a dirt magnet and there is little you can do about it. The color is beautiful but very light and the finish that protects it gets rubbed off almost immediately. At first I tried using soap and water to clean it off and the water seems o make it worse as it opens up the pores and allow dirt to get inside even more. I have tried some leather lotion for shoes to help protect it and it also has little effect. This is of course expected with all leather cases. While brown and black leather cases developed a nice patina that makes the case look rugged, aged, and antique, the brown dirt on grey-white color just makes it look dirty and there’s not much you can do about it. It’s still a well made case but be aware of the limitations and that the color unfortunately won’t last long.

First of all let me say I hate phone cases. I have been using iPhones without a case since the original iPhone. I find them too grippy or too slippery or too fat or too thick or too heavy or not perfectly made or not made with good materials or aesthetically displeasing. But this case. This case made me a believer. I don’t really know where to start or how to explain what is so different about this case than other cases. Or why I actually believe that their attention to detail and craftsmanship actually deserves the crazy price tag. So I’m just going to start from what I believe is the most important part of a phone case and work my way down from there. 1. The way it feels. this case feels like a new baseball glove. Slightly tough at first but the more you use it the more it becomes yours. Unique to the point that anything else just wouldn’t feel right. Everything from button placement to how the leather wraps around the edges feels right. The way the leather doesn’t just stop at the phone buttons but gently walks you up to them. The leather rises to the button in a way that the transition from leather to stainless steel feels seamless yet prominent enough to know where your fingers lay. The texture of the leather doesn’t leave your hands or fingered feel fatigued when holding the phone for long periods of time. Not so grippy as to create too much friction where movement of your hands or fingers would require effort leading to exhaustion yet not so slippery where lots of effort is needed to hold the device. I can’t tell if there appears to be a subtle give to the leather or if the material used is just so high quality that it feels like the leather is thicker than it actually is. And most importantly it doesn’t feel hot to handle. Long use sessions with leather cases lead to sweater palms. But not so much this one. 2. The Style. People will notice. They will notice the colors and the texture of the phone case above all else. The wave pattern is subtle yet people point it out to me all the time. My friends using the Apple leather case tell me the one I’m using is just better and how they will be buying this brand in the future. People like the way this case feels without ever having touched it. That is how this case looks. It looks like it feels good. When it’s sitting on your desk, you want to pick it up. 3. Smell. - smells like new fresh high quality designer leather shoes. Enough said. 4. The fit: - Apple leather case feels like it wants to come off my phone. It doesn’t fit right. It doesn’t feel tailored. This case however does. The bottom edges of the phone grip the phone perfectly. The top and side edges ever so slightly fit over the phone. The phone is perfectly nestled within its leather tailored tuxedo. Even the camera bump has a raised bump to protect it. And unlike other camera case edges this one didn’t slap a piece of plastic on the rim and call it a day. The case gently rises to meet the cameras of your phone. It even feels good when your finger brushes up against that area. Protection. - be honest I don’t care about this when it comes to phone cases. Most of them provide the same amount of protection. the more protection you add above the base amount just becomes a battle with the laws of physics. More protection means bigger heavier cases. Idk about y’all but I’ll risk it for a phone that doesn’t feel like a brick. Does this case protect your phone? Yes. Will it do as much as a hardcore 1/2 pound otter box? No.

Quality case. And I like how the camera part is fully protected even with the iPhone 17 pro max. Most cases have it exposed.

Bullstrap makes a decent case. But their Lifetime Warranty claim is false advertising. Over a couple years of use, most cases are going to get some wear and tear. Bullstrap’s cases first fail at the buttons, which get loose and rattle. Eventually the clear plastic shell underlying the leather fails at the corners and gets floppy and tears off. No big deal, but they make it sound like you can simply submit a warranty claim and get a new case. That’s BS. What they actually do is completely ignore you. I first bought the Bullstrap case in the photo below on May 29, 2022. I opted in to their warranty program when they sent me an email on June 22, 2022. I submitted a warranty claim through their website in May 2023, but never got any kind of confirmation of the claim. On June 1, 2023 and June 14, 2023 I sent emails to Bullstrap’s customer service account asking why my warranty claim had been ignored and submitting photos of the original order form. I have heard nothing. Bullstrap apparently ignores warranty claims completely and just doesn’t communicate with customers who make them. The card in the photo is a lie. There is no warranty. So, 1 star. Decent case; but you should all know it is just a one-off and the warranty they claim to offer is just window dressing with no substance.

Ich hatte auch das originale Apple Leder Case, jedoch ist es einfach so, dass die Apple Cases seit geraumer Zeit keine bzw eine nicht so schöne Patina entwickeln. Man kann an vielen Beispielen auf Social Media sehen, dass die Bullstrap Cases alle eine schöne Patina entwickeln. Der zweite Grund war, dass das Case unten offen ist. Ich finde so ist der Komfort einfach höher und angenehmer für die Hand. Ansonsten ist die Qualität auf den ersten Blick gut und das Leder riecht auch angenehm. Großer Minuspunkt ist einfach der hohe Preis. Es ist ein gutes Case, aber ein höherer Preis als bei Apple ist mMn nicht gerechtfertigt.

Pedí este producto porque en la descripción literalmente dice “Funda de piel para iPhone 12/12 pro de color marrón”. Pues me llegó una funda para el iPhone 12 mini, y de color azul. Me siento realmente decepcionado, esperaba con ansias este producto debido a las buenas reseñas que he oído de su marca, pero después de un inconveniente como este me rehúso a volver a comprar algo suyo. El empaque del producto se siente barato, no se ve nada “premium” como lo anuncian. Poca protección, una lástima.

Optisch und haptisch die beste Hülle fürs Iphone 13 Pro Max :-)
