Where did you order the capture button from?
Ali Express.


How does it stick on?
Not sure if my OCD could live with this :confused:
There is a lug either side sits under the case that are pushed against the case by the inserted phone.
There are stick on ones with no lugs but not keen on that idea, plus I've only seen those with gold trim so would stick put like a sore thumb.

Torres do a case with NO camera button! Happy days.

This case covers the button which no one uses.

Who knows if it’s real. Their renderings show cutout, button, covered - none of it seems to correlate with what they’re actually selling.

Not sure what you mean by saying no one uses the camera control. I use it multiple times a day, every day, as do many who more seriously use their phone as a camera.

I’ve ordered it so will find out soon.

7 days later with "Express" shipping the Nomad rugged is finally here. The case is good, super tight fit, perfect buttons, decent grip, nice camera hole ETC. Lays nice and flat on it's back. The camera control hole is mighty deep and will be hard to work with fat fingers. After all these years it still has symmetrical cutouts on the bottom :( Overall a really good case. Here are a few pics:

My gen 6 came in as well. Definitely feels like the frost sides, the gen series used to be muxh gripper even without the little grip pattern just based off material but now it feels as grip-less as the frosty. Still feels and looks good tho!

I was hoping the grip would be a little better than the frosty. That frosty is major slippery.

Thanks for the report! It’s a great case. I would love to have one again (used it a lot last year), but I don’t think I can live with that cutout. Will order one straight away if they eventually deliver a button version as promised.

I am guessing it adds significant bulk to the phone though since it's a rugged case?
