after seeing @AE14 and @Joe123Joe posts on the supcase grip case, i bought one. it’s a little more rugged than i’m used to but a solid case. the kickstand is great and works well for me as a finger ring. i like the look and feel of it. for me the criticism of the cc cover is not fair. it works great for me. i only notice a slight difference between it and apples case when sliding to change a setting. for me i find it a positive as its not so sensitive. a great case for $25.
Got a tip for us?

Agreed. Love this case, especially for the price point. UAG is asking 70-80 bucks for the same thing, with No camera button.
I’ve tried so many on Amazon.
G6 is number 1.
Damn. Massive earthquake as I typed this.
Happy I finally got a rebel worth keeping. Even has the better carbon fiber backing with light texture
You’re not the only one.
Including the original purchase yes number 3 . Even this one gave me a scare case there was some white stuff on it but thankfully water took care of it. I clearly described the camera cutout situation wrong tho cause each case has it. Maybe not sharp was the right word. A texture on the edge right above the camera cutout out
I’ve been using non matte clear cases for several years now and I’ve never known for them to get scratched up or oily. Fingerprints yes but those are easily wiped off. 🤔
I believe when people say “oily” or “greasy” they’re talking about fingerprints and smudges. That’s my interpretation anyway.
I know she's FAT but I keep going back to her 
For those of you who have the Phone RebelGen6, I have a few questions..
1. Will the Nomad Rugged UBC Cable fit with this case?
2. Is the screwdriver that comes with the components kit sufficient or should I buy a better one?

I don't have a Nomad cable but the tiny screwdriver that comes with the PR kits sucks.
This is the correct one that I use and can be purchased on Amazon.
Such a nice case, one of my most used last year. That said, I’ve become so acclimated to super skinny cases now that even going back to the Apple Silicone feels bulky.
Exactly my experience after using these types of cases.Such a nice case, one of my most used last year. That said, I’ve become so acclimated to super skinny cases now that even going back to the Apple Silicone feels bulky.
I'm tempted to try the Caudabe Veil case..........waiting for their Black Friday deals to hitSuch a nice case, one of my most used last year. That said, I’ve become so acclimated to super skinny cases now that even going back to the Apple Silicone feels bulky.
I haven’t tried the Veil myself, but I’ve heard that the cutouts are so close to the buttons that they make it difficult to press them.
What ultra thin cases would you say are worth looking at? Anything other than the pitaka/benks?Such a nice case, one of my most used last year. That said, I’ve become so acclimated to super skinny cases now that even going back to the Apple Silicone feels bulky.
I haven’t had much experience with these types of aramid fiber cases, but I’ll share a few thoughts.
I checked out a friend’s Latercase but never owned one. It looked nice, but the lack of MagSafe was a deal breaker for me. Thinborne is heavily promoted on social media, but I can’t help but feel like they’re rebranded AliExpress cases (they deny it). Then there are the no-name knock-offs on Amazon and AliExpress that I would advise against. I tried a couple of them, and they were pretty bad.
I believe that leaves Pitaka and Benks. Pitaka was the original, while Benks is a bit of a copycat, which is perfectly acceptable in my opinion. Benks are a better value, but I believe Pitaka has better quality control and a better finish (although others may disagree). Plus, I prefer their colors (totally subjective, of course).
That’s my two cents. 😊

That’s fair enough but then there are other non clear cases which have the same issue. I don’t think it’s something that solely affects clear cases.
