I feel like I have to see what’s going to happen with the iPhone 17 Pro before I’d consider dropping the money for one of these Caudabe cases at this point. Really nuts how long they waited.

does the paragon offer any screen protection? any caudabe coupon codes?
Nope, here is the Paragon with the hole.

Maybe this new redefined CC version will be better :confused:

Im officially out. They never stick to their expected timeline and even if they did that be 3rd or 4th week of June ill get it in UK.

No point ordering two cases to use only for one and half month because I’ll most likely sell my device mid August all ready for new ones.
Can you believe I just bought the Moonstone earlier this week! I should have waited SMH.

When you say screen protection, you mean if you laid your phone face done a table with the Paragon on, would the screen touch the table?

No it wouldn’t. It has flush sides but slightly raised corners
 
I was wanting a case that provided at least “military grade” protection, metal buttons and camera surround, good CC button, while weighing under 40 grams (this one is 38 grams). With those criteria the list is very short. I ended up with the Benks Prestige and I must say it’s pretty nice. Good fit, reasonably grippy, extremely comfortable to hold, there’s really not much to complain about. The buttons do rattle just a bit, but no more than most cases with metal buttons. I was somewhat skeptical because literally every Benks case I have ever purchased was returned due to defects, but this one is clean. For now it’s going to be my new daily driver, we’ll see how it fares over time.

Well crap...it's the Synthesis that has the knobby grip sides like the Tinee Owl (yes, I know that's backwards), not the Sheath?? I've been waiting all this time for nothing.
 
Too late in the year for me to be interested in the Caudabe cc button cases.
By the time it arrived, probably end of June, it would only get 2 to 3 months use and that’s if I don’t use any other cases in rotation.

As it is I’m very happy with the Benks Montage ArmorPro with a few Apple silicone and the Ringke Rugged on standby if I fancy a change.

First year in a long while I haven’t bought any Caudabe cases for my iPhone at all!
 
I can`t resist. I ordered a black Sheath as this is my main Case for the 16PM. Currently I am using the Andar but I think I will always return to the Sheath. Specially with a CC Button.

No gray for the sheath! Why? If I manage to get rid of the two sheaths and one paragon I already have, I might just upgrade, since I’m not planning to buy the 17.
