With Apple coincidentally embracing shoulder loops, I gave it a go with the Peak Design cover and the leash I have since many years. Very practical!

~~Very cool. Only thing that bothers me is the mismatched colours. White and metallic orange don’t really work in my opinion. Either silver phone + white case or even orange phone + the tan case would look nicer I think.~~

~~If you like white + metallic orange then fine by me! It’s not my phone nor my case, so my judgement does not matter.~~

edit: The case appears to be a pale aquamarine (greenish blue mix), and there are also orange buttons. That makes a bit more sense than a bright white case, I guess the lighting makes it look more white. It passes my judgement then :D (again, my judgement does not really matter, not my case)

Also, for the record, I like the "Cosmic Orange" phone. It's bold, colourful, and certainly not boring. The iPhone 17 colours are also fantastic. "Sky Blue", on the other hand...

Thanks for your thoughts! Actually the color isn’t white but a pale aquamarine (“Cirrus” in PD terms) and I chose it because the buttons are orange and match almost exactly the phone color ;) but yeah pretty in-your-face, I normally prefer plain silver, too, but this time I went for bold!

Here a much better representation of colors and the side buttons:

Yeah, the lighting makes it seem grayish in post.

[–] sbeak@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 months ago

There are orange buttons! Also if it has a blue-greenish tint that works a little better. Fine by me then.

I kinda dig it, but I’m a heathen that went with the orange phone and a green case. I can’t decide if it’s more Master Chief or Ninja Turtle.

Sick, would have taken the green version of this for this cover, if it had orange aluminum buttons (also the pattern would have been different, but no preference on that)

Gorgeous! Make sure to post all your good photos!
