The new Phone Rebel Gen 6 CC button is removable :(

Probably the same POS Aliexpress button Mous is using :rolleyes:

Caudabe sheath and Paragon have pretty good grip. Synthesis is good but the back scratches up a bit. Phone rebel gen 6 aramid has great grip and protection, also comes with a screen protector. Phone Rebel air 2 also is the same way but not as protective as the gen 6. If you are looking for a clear case, Dbrand Ghost 2.0 is great with a pretty good camera control button (although some people have had issues with their CC button, mine works very well). Dbrand grip has excellent grip and is protective, plus super customizable with the skins you can get. I hope that helps!
I held my friend's the Synthesis before and I wasn't impressed. I didn't like how the back felt and I found it somewhat slippery. I have also tried the Dbrand grip (15 Pro Max) and I wasn't a fan of the the sandpaper like feel.
I haven't tried the Paragon. Is it slippery?
 
Ridge just dropped 4 new case colors. So I ordered this ting today… been quite a while since I have ordered something new… (by my standards at least lol) but figured I’d share since this thing has @Hooterville written ALL over it. 🤣

Once it arrives I’ll let you folks know how it is.
Yeah let me know! I just saw the lavender one and I died it’s so pretty! I might give it a try if you think it’s worthy! Please report back! 🙏
 
on the pr website you can order the rebel ultra and get a free component kit at checkout. it popped up for me and i almost went past it but it discounts the case and the component kit so you end up at $49.99 either way.

Will it be shipping straight away?

The sides are pretty grippy, but the back is a bit glossy so the back doesn't have texture. The sheath has texture on the back and the sides, though.

I also second whoever said Spigen Ultra Hybrid T. But get the black frosted one if anything because the clear ones will yellow. ESR classic hybrid is good too with the CC button, but will also yellow.
 
Just got the Phone Rebel Ultra 18% off email. Guess I jumped the gun to early placing my order this morning to get any deals
 
The CC button is as other have said. AliExpress finest. Same as TineeOwl etc. So it should be ok.
