Looks like in the picture it’s just the closed bottom version.

£12 total and honestly, it’s a top case.

Feels like leather, decent magnets, clicky buttons, very slim and tight fitting, working CC button. A great find and I’d recommend giving it a try if you’re struggling for a closed bottom, CC covered leather case. Patina process and smell aside, I think you’ll struggle to tell it’s fake.

Thanks. I just ordered one in Blue. It cost me 97 pence in total and due for delivery on Jan 9th. For that price you can’t really go wrong. If I’m not happy with it then it’s just a loss of 97 pence. 😃👍

Someone please send me a letter when Caudabe and Phone Rebel release their CC button cases

To be fair- PR has just under 7 hours to make the announcement to hit their December deadline

Am tempted to grab a blue and green one too so pls post pics when you get it 👍

 

[Hooterville]

I’ll send it across the country via carrier pigeon. Should get there just in time.

That service maybe a little too fast

Yeah, this might be better.

You forgot the Caudabe & Phone Rebel logos

Picked up the Benks Prestige with the CC button. CC button works better than expected after watching Tee try their regular ArmorPro with it...was worried after watching his livestream. Not as smooth as Apple Silicone and Spigen, but this button is much more responsive than the TineeOwl case that I returned. If you swipe slow, it works really well, but fast swiping you notice it doesn't react as well. Also, once you initiate swiping, it starts slow on initial contact, but after 1 second, then it gets more responsive, like it needs to warm up. Hard to describe in words. With the TineeOwl case, it was pretty unusable, where slow swiping it would stutter if even that and fast swiping wouldn't do anything. Both cases, I used 99% IPA to wipe the inside of the buttons.

Benks prestige pro. First off the aramid pattern is awesome in person.

Secondly, I find the cc button to be pretty responsive imho despite the negative reviews. It feels good to have a non Apple case with cc button in hand. My new favorite case in my collection.

Yeah, definitely more responsive than I expected after hearing it wasn't good.

Cc cutout vs button size comparison

 

[AE14]

Santa (my daughter) did bring me a case from an art history site. Great case with our favorite painting, a Van Gogh at the MET. Only issue is that there’s no MagSafe and a CC opening. Case is on anyway.

Just added MagSafe magnets to the outer shell, and it works perfectly.

Why is CC button so dirty?

Why is CC button so dirty?

Looks like the edges of a $3.00 screen protector

Happy New Year All 😁

i also got the benks prestige. i like it a lot. very slim. i like the silver buttons. and the silver camera surround. the action button has an orange accent. seems like the buttons are metal. the backside is smooth black so they are protected. those pics posted above don’t do it justice. the color, look and feel is great imo. i can’t comment on the cc button cause i think all are great. so my opinion should be disregarded on that. i’m just glad no cutout.

Lint perhaps. I had just opened it out the box

Looks awesome. How’s the fit? I had some fit and loose button issues with last year’s version of this case for the 15PM, hoping they’ve solved those this year.

The fit is tight and no loose buttons. The buttons compared to last generation don't protrude as far out. Since the aramid fiber shell now extends to the sides and top, it creates a very rigid frame for the TPU to mold around. Aramid is textured so you get a feel of the weave. I give the PhoneRebel a 10/10 in terms of fit and tightness, this one is a 9/10.

i don’t have the dbrand case but do have a supcase and to me the cc button is perfect. i don’t ever shoot videos where i ever want to zoom in or out as an effect. apparently the supcase doesn’t work so good for that. but to open the camera, to half press, full press, swipe, etc it works perfectly. if you haven’t tried one and are going off what others are saying, well i disagree. i’m looking forward to the new cases with cc buttons as i do not like the cutouts. i’m sure they’ll all be good, dbrand, benks, come on magbak.

I have no issues using the button on the dbrand grip. It may be a bit slow to register my finger initially, but once it does, it works just fine.

Probably not fake, maybe dog or cat leather. I remember a while ago a documentary investigating fake fur on slippers and such. Some samples weren’t taken at all and were real fur from cats for example. This was clothing products sold in well known chain stores.

Got my Benks ArmorPro with Camera Control and I really like it. I had been using a Spigen Hybrid Ultra T and it was working well. But this will be my new go to.
