The silicone ones don’t gather lint everywhere? I loved this case, but when I put it in my pocket, it would come out looking like a lint roller. :(
When I had my black one, I just took a deep breath & blew the little lint that had stuck on it away. Although, since there was minimal lint on it, it didn't take much of a breath ;)

I have a question for SolidSuit owners: Do you notice that your case fits less thight than before after using it for a while or taking it on/off a few times?

My SolidSuit doesn’t fit as good as before. When I squeeze the sides of the phone, I can feel that there is some play between the phone and the case. This wasn’t the case (wordplay) when I got the case...

100% yes. I have been using the carbon fiber off and on since it’s release. It now has give on the side at the bottom, so much so, I can actually press it in. Add it that it’s slippery and it does also chip easily. It’s decent at best.

This describes exactly my problem(s)! I am back to my Nomad Rugged. It’s a shame the SolidSuit turned out so disappointing...

If you like the Mous, you should like the Nomad Rugged... Has anyone of you tried it? It’s my favourite case!

I just looked at the Mous website. They have new colors and the case is called 2.0 now. Was that the case before too or is this a new version?

The colors are new, but their most recent one is the limitless 2.0.

Mobilereviews just released their review with a 20% off code. He was very high on it. Took 48 drops of varying heights to have damage.

Now I am extremely tempted to get one... The main downside I see is the mold line on the side. It seems quite noticeable/feelable.

Its not that bad too be honest, and the case is grippier than it looks. I really like the leather. I typically do not like that carbon fibre look as well, as I find it gets finger prints quickly.

At 20% off, its a pretty good deal, and they usually ship within 24 hours

I just prmised myself to just keep my Nomad Rugged and not buy any new cases anymore. A few hours later, I am already thinking about the Mous case... If the shipping costs to Europe are low, I might pick one up. ;)

I decided to first sell my SolidSuit cases (one which I bought, one which I got as a replacement). Then I buy the Mous case with that money. As a student, I can’t keep buying cases... ;)

I just watched the whole thing. Definitely interested. I’m gonna get it for my wife when she gets the new phone in the fall (she’s cracked her 7+ screen three times ). And if I get bored I’ll try the case also. How big is it compared to the Sheath, if you still have that?

How big is the Mous compared to the Apple leather case?
It is thicker than both, and it has wider, thicker corners. However, the way it tapers in at the middle makes it seem not so thick if that makes sense.

What’s the consensus on a good, thin case with a little raised lip to prevent the phone from shattering if falls out of car onto cement when you’re getting out cause you left it in your lap. Or like if you’re walking your two dogs snd they see a squirrel and your leash hand is also phone hand. Don’t care about scratches, and doesn’t need to survive atmospheric reentry, just little bit of drop on pavement from low height, whilst keeping it minimal and as close to Apple design as possible?
