Caudabe Veil short review

Wow just got mine came super quick(was suppose to arrive Monday) and wow is this case great. Got the wisp version and love it on my space gray. And it covers some of the chamfered edges which is what I was looking for. Hated how light in color they were. This case is amazing.
 
yup no problem guys, just let me know if you need anything specific. Otherwise I will shoot a couple of random shots front and back :D
 
Here are the photos of the clear veil on my space gray 5S. Great case, I just do not like the fact there is no sim tray cut out.

Not the best photos, but you get the idea

its kinda tough to tell, but is the frosted....too frosted to be used on a space grey? i kinda want one but im afraid of how it would look.

IMHO it is a bit frosty, but I did not want black so I am actually happy with how it looks. The gray color looks nearly the same as it would if it was naked, but the black portions are now gray looking. I am not saying I want to show off that i have a 5S, but I do like the way the gray looks rather than a plain black case.

Thank u for posting the pictures. In my opinion, the Wisp Black still the best color for the iPhone 5s space gray.

Possibly, but you can't go wrong with either choice. Great case!

I have to agree with this. I've seen the frost on some friends' space gray iPhones and the black glass part is just too frosted for my liking.

I feel like Caudabe made adjustments to the wisp black, too. The one i bought before had a brownish tint to it in certain angles. The new ones I received are much closer to gray/black and not brown, which is a good thing IMO.

Yup. I have both and much prefer the wisp black on black phone.
 
Caudabe clear frosted case on my white and gold is the new naked. It's like there's no case on it. The emperor has no clothes!
 
I had one, then sold it because I was using the Apple Leather case. Re-purchased direct from Caudabe to use in a vaja case to protect the sides. Just received today. It's the best out there.

Wow, how does the phone actually fit in the Vaja case? Does it snap in? Amazing that it'd still fit even with the Caudabe on your phone.
 
I got my replacement from Caudabe and wanted to show a side by side, new vs. old. The older one was noticeably "browner" as someone else stated when compared to the newly released ones. Also, the Caudabe logo on the back was slightly redesigned it seems. The round company logo is slightly smaller than the old one and the embossed Caudabe font appears slightly smaller and thinner. Overall, it looks alot better than the previous one. And also, their customer service is some of the best I ever had to deal with, bar none. Highly recommend them. I hope one day they decide to include bottom coverage in their design, which would make this case absolutely complete.

Wow what an improvement. That is why I ordered clear, but have no problem ordering black and switching off.
