I keep going back to the Spigen Ultra Hybrid T. Just feels slim and nice in the hand. I just tried the Phone Rebel, but I can't put my finger on why I don't like it as much.
After side trips to the Apple Silicone and the Caudabe Sheath, I'm back to the Spigen Ultra Hybrid T, too. In fact, I just bought a black frosted as backup.

Sill in love with PRG6 + Mothica AG glass.

I have found that installing the Mothica with the PRG6 on as a template guide works perfectly.

The case is so tight that trying to jam it in pre-applied tends to cause edge lift of the SP.

Just leave the PRG6 on and drop the Mothica on - perfect fit.

Still in love with this combo.

Also, after putting the Mothica on you will have a ton of bubbles. Just use your thumb and slide the bubbles off with pressure. The bubbles will disappear just keep at it for 10 mins and you will have a flawless awesome install of this beautiful combo. 💫⭐️💫

Just got the Phone Rebel with the free ultra orange kit. Good thing the kit was free. All of the buttons are loose and slide back and forth. How can they make the black ones that come on the case fit nice and snug and the optional buttons are loose? I put the black stuff back on. The case itself is excellent.

I have just stuck with the nomad traditional, best nomad I have had and have had a lot over the years.
Full leather, cutout is easier to use than the 2 apple silicones I have, 1 is new and can't even get $20AUD back each for them lol black and stone.
$79 retail here. One was a freebie luckily.

Also first nomad that is not taller than apples cases, and soft on pinky and correct cutouts on the bottom.
Black on black looks great with gunmetal colour buttons, also excellent.
 
I just can't do it ;)
BTW, I still think you need one of these. I threw it back on today after being in the AP for 10 days and it feels amazing. All of your CC button woes would disappear instantly… 😉

How did you get the Orange kit for free?

All the colored buttons are from the old Gen 4 & 5 cases. The only thing new are those two orange camera protectors.
Hopefully they will also update the buttons someday.

Agreed. What color iPhone you rocking with the PRG6?

I fixed the loose orange buttons by putting a piece of clear packaging g tape on the back of them. Worked perfectly. Buttons work great and don’t move.

Looks like another copper rod special, I'll pass o_O
The case looks nice, but yeah the button appears to the copper rod type to me.

I no longer trust any of these reviewers regarding the camera control. They’ve all admitted on Discord that they don’t use the button at all, which makes them wholly unqualified to report on its efficacy. We need a reviewer who’s a photographer who actually uses the thing to its potential.

I'm about to go skinny and buttonless soon......................

Didn't look like copper rod to me, but would like to know if the surround is TPU or silicone. Hoping for former for smooth swiping.

Will wait to see what the 600D is like as I don't like the Aurora or Prestige colours/pattern. Also I'm not sure the grip will be good enough with the aramid sides. Ideally the 600D will be like the current one with TPU sides, but then will it still not have metal buttons! Lol, fussy as heck. 😄
