Okay I found the case on Amazon, they really hid it in there. I had to go through and find it through Torras 16 Pro page and then select the regular 16. It's not on the regular 16 page as far as I could see.
 
I actually don’t mind it. Kind is subtle on the side of the lens. My only gripe is wish it was all black. Matte frost is ok.
 
Pretty cool looking

Mous update: The back is plenty greasy after only one night of use o_O

Also this ridge along the fiber edge on the back is pretty sharp feeling, wonder if they all have this sharp edge?

At least they added a little extra sharp ridge to the CC button area

That sharp edge was my big complaint with the Mous on the 15PM.
 
Ringke Onyx is impressive!

I’ve gotten so picky with “regular” cases since I’ve been all in with the Benks ArmorAir and I’ve tried multiple then returned them and never liked them more than my ArmorAir but the Ringke Onyx has impressed me.

I wouldn’t say it dethrones the ArmorAir as I will always love the ultra thin style but this is the only regular case that I actually do like and will keep and definitely will get again for the 17 series (if they add the CC it’ll be perfect IMO).

The fitment is super tight all around! The buttons feel great. The textured tapered corners feel so nice. No fingerprint issue whatsoever. The CC cutout doesn’t feel intrusive at all and I love the camera bump design. It’s also not super heavy being right around 40g which is a plus!

I’ve been waiting, and waiting, for the CC button version.

Yep, this and the rugged are two of my favorite cases this year. Onyx has been on my phone over 30 days straight and that's a new record for me. I'm on day 2 in the Mous and already losing my mind with the fingerprints this thing collects :(

Might be back in my Onyx before the day is done :oops:

Mous after one charge on my Belkin Qi2 Magsafe charger o_O

Oh, how I love aramid fiber :(

Sheesh! Not sure I would blame Aramid fiber. I charge every other day on a Belkin Boost Charge Pro 3-in-1 charger. My Phone Rebel Gen6 Ultra does not show MagSafe rings. (It does show greasy fingerprints, even when I'm sure my fingers are bone dry.)

This new Belkin has a silicone charging puck and leaves marks like this on aramid fiber like crazy, these marks clean right off though. Charged the Onyx 20 plus times on this same charger and absolutely zero marks at all.

I see the onyx comes in two options magsafe and non magsafe. Which version are you boys using? Want to give the onyx a go.

Has anybody in the US been hit with additional import charges on cases coming from China? Want to make sure I don't get any surprises if I order something from Benks...
