Exactly! Especially when we already have the sheath. I laugh when people say it’s the sheath killer. It’s far from it.

And yet here we are with a lot of people in this group quite happy with their Owl. As soon as Caudabe comes out with a Sheath with a CC cover I'll be more than happy to try it. Until then, Owl it is.

I have really loved my bellroy leather case. It’s my favorite case I’ve had for the 16 pro for many reasons:

-Super slim like the old apple leather cases
-I prefer having TPU around the screen rather than leather so the fact that it’s a hybrid case is awesome
-It’s very lightweight
-The camera control cutout is the best I’ve seen by far. Having TPU around the cutout means it can be super precise and thin compared to most leather case cutouts.

If it has a camera control button it would be the GOAT for me

What color do you have? Any pics?
 
Sadly only iPad pics because my phone is my best camera but hopefully that gives ya an idea.

had to try it. i’ve had several arc pulses over the years but never tried with a skin. i really like the matte finish and that the arc logo isn’t so shiny and visible. i’ve never had this version. i didn’t feel like i had to force it on. it seemed like the same fit as in the past. also i didn’t feel like i messed up the skin. we’ll see when i remove the arc pulse. the only negative so far is the magsafe strength is less. maybe that’s why i’ve never felt like the grip had a strong magsafe.

edit: the screen protector is the flolab matte. i really like it.

Have you tried to move the arc yet ? If so did the skin mess up ? I got my matte dbrand skin just trying to figure out if it’s worth putting it on and if so should I cut around the area the arc goes over since it’s a full body skin .
I mean I have apple care + if I don’t use the dbrand

On my 15 pro max i use the pitaka case, on 16 pro max which one? pitaka ultra slim or benks armortint?
 
For a long time I used Apple's silicone cases on my iPhones, but it was a magnet for dust and pocket hair and, every time I took it out of my pocket, it got stuck. For some time I bought Spigen's transparent cases, however, after 2 months, they were already yellow. For the first time, I purchased Apple's clear case. I'm really enjoying it. I've had it for 3 months and nothing has gone yellow. Of course I'm careful. I take it out of the device once a week to clean it. I don't leave it in the sun or in a hot environment. I don't use creams or products on my hands. It's still impeccable.

If it was the Ringke rugged with button I would be all over it. I hate cases with that metal kickstand/ring deal on the back.

You keep missing the point! TineeOwl is half the price of the sheath. But still has a CC button.
Click to expand...
I get that point but the rest of the case is pretty mid imo. Button are just ok, QC issues for some people Including myself. I wonder what this convo looks like when Caudabe drops the cc button?

looks real nice. the reviews on amazon are bad. they say the buttons don’t click, mushy i guess and no lay on table screen protection. 🤔

Thats so odd they are. The Bellroy has honestly been my favorite case I purchased. I think the buttons are great, and the lip is more than enough for lay on table protection. IMO at least :p

i.e if Caudabe drops the cc button.

Actually I am enjoying my Tineeowl currently and do not miss Sheath one bit. That horrible cut out with sharp edges is no match to smooth button of Tineeowl.

Since Ive started using third party cases with CC button i am using the button more often compared to before.

Caudabe fanboys (p.s I am one too) keep mocking Tineeowl every opportunity they get but they keep missing the point. Tineeowl got CC button and Sheath hasn’t.

Sheath has the biggest QC issue i.e NO CC Button.
