Here ‘tis. Really nice case. The effing fit is god-tier… wow. Feels great in the hand too, and thankfully, for all the lefty’s in the crowd, the CC button disappears like it does on the Apple Silicone and Spigen UHT. Speaking of, much to my astonishment, somehow PR made a great CC button using the normally sucky copper rod design. It’s at least as good as the Spigen, and is well within what I’d consider perfectly usable. The hand feel also belies the actual weight, which is something I noticed about the Gen5 last year. I think this is because the grips make it more relaxing to hold, hence feeling lighter than it actually is.
So fit, hand feel, buttons, CC button, drop protection, overall quality - pretty much everything is spot on. I wish they would’ve made this case in September, which would’ve saved a lot of time, money, and monkeying around.

Don’t mean to rain on the parade but those fiber lines are definitely squiggly. Can’t unsee it.
Hopefully, it's just the pictures?
I'm going to try and not look too close at mine, if it ever shows up
Don’t worry the smudges will hide the squiggly lines after a dayHopefully, it's just the pictures?

the pic doesn't show the CC button, but sind they have a cut out at the other buttons?
Cheers

Yup. It’s not really noticeable when looking straight on, but is more apparent at a low angle. No big deal IMO.
Here’s a perpendicular shot with some guidelines overlaid. It’s pretty much straight. I think the low angle combined with the wide angle (16mm) lens was creating an optical illusion, or at least grossly exaggerating any slight imperfection. I thought I should post this so that @Hooterville doesn’t lose too much sleep. 😉
I'm not going to look very close at mine when it arrives
I get mine tomorrow!! I’ll post pics if you’re still on the fence ◡̈
Man now I just need a titanium folding lense and a crystal with camera control button and then I’m done with cases lol
Matte black dbrand skin over the fiber takes care of the smudges in my PR
So you have to spend another $20 to make your $50 case livable. 🤔
lol more or less , but for me it makes it perfect . The smudges were just horrendous on such a great case …
Not easy but I used the Back skin only , this is on my original gen 6 so it had some use during work.. Not perfect by any means but I’m hoping next one will turn out better . I just hate the fiber smudge look, but love the case .
