The visible metal frame with Apple cases is evenly visible all around, which is the correct design. This was also true for the Apple silicone cases for the iPhone 14 and 15.
correct, however with the CC button the case does not sit flat against the metal frame as it does around the rest of the case. It's very evident as others have shown and commented.
 
Apple silicone evenly shows the frame. I have no issues with any of mine.
It does not, if you post a pic you will see the case does not lay evenly on the metal frame where the camera control button is. It's on every silicone case this year.
 
Same exact thing with every apple silicone case this year.

Sal is right.

I have tried approx 7/8 silicones this year and not one has had any fitment issues; whether it be corner pop out or unevenness around the frame or CC button.

JerseyJon may have had a bad experience with them but it certainly does not mean every single case is affected/the same.

He's not. I tried probably 10ish and every one had the same issue as the pic I posted from another user. If you post a pic of your case it will show the same thing.
 
PRG6 + Mothica AG SP = solid long term relationship with excited long term outlook. Perfection. Beauty. Committed.
 
Still nothing from PR support. Im out of Gen 6 Ultra just in case if they want it back. Dont want to damage it lol.
FYI you don't need authorization to return it within 30 days. They simply provide a return address:

Phone Rebel INC
3315 NE 112th Ave, Unit B 72
Vancouver WA, 98682, USA

That said, my returns have been at my expense. Not sure whether there are scenarios where they'll pay for it.

Here’s my Apple silicone case. If you think this is an “issue” or some kind of problem, congrats on your perfect life. In daily use I can’t see anything. I guess if you look super close you can see a tiny bit of it being less than perfect.

Yup, thank you for confirming, easy to see the case doesn’t sit flush on the frame by the CC button. Simply stating that's how they all are. It's up to the user to decide if that is an "issue" or not.

I had 2 silicone cases (black 14 and blue 15p) and the black one fell apart and attracted fingerprints, while the blue one was perfect
 

taking a page from @SteveJawbs GSPOAT. Revolutionary 🤣
Does it make the screen less clearer?

no. it’s slightly dimmer when the phone is using always on display and locked. but once you wake up phone with the backlight i don’t notice any difference. if i remove it, i’m sure i would. guess it took 5 mins to get used to. i don’t notice a difference when i grab my ipad or use my wife’s phone. the reason i like it is it barely attracts smudges or fingerprints. once in a while i see a grease smudge and it wipes right off. i used to grab my bottle of whoosh everyday. now i do that once in a while, mainly when the back of my phone needs a clean. i definitely will keep going matte. i did purchase a cheap matte protector on amazon and it was terrible. really dark and didn’t fit right. buy a good quality one for sure. i like flolab especially for their full screen dust sticker. just fit it to screen, rub in and peel off. they claim lifetime warranty. who knows how easy that would be.
 
Just a follow up… I reported a while back that the top piece of my matte black Arc Pulse was pretty loose straight out of the box. I received a warranty replacement today and this one is much better, plenty tight and on par with my polished graphite. Arc was reasonably easy to deal with, though they did ask for a video and photos, which seemed a little silly. In the end it worked out and they retained me as a customer. It’s still my favorite “case” for low risk, day-to-day use around the house and office.

Nice, did they require the old one back?
