Magically disappeared.
I don’t mind. The silky feel of the Rebel is a keeper.
Didn’t think I’d return the Onyx.
Rebel G6 is just too premium and a joy to hold.
Thanks to whoever recommended it - you win sir.
Is it worth $50? Eh. Whatever. I just love how it feels.
I hope the silky smooth premium feel lasts.
9.99/10
.01 for such insanely tight fit. I am scared to pry it out. Lol.
I’m finding all of these cases sooo boring this year. I’m spending most of my time in the Pitaka UltraSlim, which is exciting only because of the potential of destroying my phone if I drop it... lol. Seriously though, I do really enjoy the near-caselsss feel; it’s so light, and with the tiny bezels on the new phones it looks and feels like a slab of glass in the hand.I'm done buying cases until something worth a crap comes out
The only potential future purchases for me are the Paragon and Gen 6 in camera control button versions. If neither of those come out, I’m done.

I am still debating if I should buy this case! How do you find the back? Is it slippery?Back in the Nomad rugged for me
If you find a way to abandon it, you could write a book and make a lot of money
Keeping the Rebel. Returning the Onyx now to Amazon freshies.If you find a way to abandon it, you could write a book and make a lot of money
I’ve never held a phone that feels like this.
Premium. Like a Porsche steering wheel.
Rebel G6 is GOAT.
Slightly moar bulky than Onyx but not much.
Ok. Done. 🪐
The back plate is slick and slippery but the raised corners and sides give it a pretty good grip.
It's a shame the phone Rebel is slippery otherwise I would have gotten this case for my brother as a present!
Are both the frosted and the black case slippery?
The frosted is MAJOR slippery, the Rebel Gen 6 aramid is not that bad.
We need the phone rebel black crystal. That bad boy had the grip and the looks!
What does everyone think the actual likelihood of phone rebel releasing the gen 6 aramid with a camera control button is? Had anyone had any updates?
Yep. It’s a great protector. The lift seems to have “settled” and that looks good now. The ever slight rainbow is not significant enough
I really love how this mothca matte feels. So satisfying to touch.
Yeah. The Rebel Gen 6 smooth silky feeling and the Mothica AG smooth silky feel is truly a GOAT combo.
I noticed some lift today with my Mothica on the edges. Pushed them down. Have 2 in the backup drawer. Rebel gives you 2 nice SPs too but I can only do matte AG SPs.
Anyway, I am loving this combo. I feel bad as I returned the Onyx. A great case and super price. But man the Rebel is just so premium. If it lasts over one year I will be very happy.
Last I heard they’re still saying by the end of the year.
Searching for a wallet case for my wife and her new iPhone 16 Pro Max. Che wants to carry 6 - 8 cards.
I use a Blackbrook, but she says that is too bulky. I have been looking but no luck so far.
Any suggestions?

There was some question as to whether or not the Torras Ofitness currently ships with a capacitive camera control button. According to this discussion on IG, it’s in the works but not available yet. Added to the WikiPost.

The finger print marks on the back on the Gen6 are beginning to annoy me.
That is why I always prefer the Frosty to the Rebel. Can't stand fingerprint/smudges and those on the Rebel can't be easily wiped off.
I picked mine up for around 35 open box and yes that part is very flimsy but I’ve yet to have issues handling it and don’t even notice it.
I am wondering if I should go for the Rebel Gen 6 Aramid. It costs £16 to ship to the UK so I would hate for my brother to not like the case but a lot of people rave about the case. The Nomad Rugged costs £50 which is pretty much the same price as the Rebel including shipping!
They seem to disappear, come and go.
The beauty of the feel outweigh any marks for me so far.
Now the only question is long term sustainability. Will the honeymoon end.
