Seeing that Ghost 2.0 case makes me want one. But I don’t want to wait until April 2025. Hope I can snag one from eBay someday soon.
Got a tip for us?

All the ArmorAir cases I previously mentioned (600D, Tint and Aurora) don’t have a metal camera ring but under Materials here it states otherwise.
My Pitaka Forest replacement is much better than my original. Snaps into place and more snug too. I have the Sunset variant coming tomorrow. Don’t see myself using any other cases for a long time. Might have to purge some of the collection that won’t ever get usage anymore.
That’s not a PC layer, it’s their so-called “Amber Magnetic Film”.

Welcome to the light side! Beautiful case/phone combo… 😍My Pitaka Forest replacement is much better than my original. Snaps into place and more snug too. I have the Sunset variant coming tomorrow.

You are right there, that is the wrong pic for the ArmorPro also.
The ArmorPro does have metal ring, I have it on my phone right now.

Incidentally, I'm really enjoying using the ArmorPro after not being keen with the cut out and lack of metal buttons. Got used to the cut out quick, makes it easier to locate the button swiftly too which is great. I use the button a lot.
Been scaling Amazon and Aliexpress for a black aramid case that has metal buttons too.
Not much joy. The Rebel Gen 6 obviously fits the bill but as there is supposed to be a button version, I'll wait to see what sort of tech they use.

Loving the Nomad full leather and the Rocky Pt band.
There’s the Pitaka Military Grade (aka Pro), but the front lip is nearly flush, which is a weird design choice for a protective case. They released an improved version with a larger lip, but it still isn’t enough IMO. Could be worth checking out if you don’t mind a minimal lip.
Yeah I have had a look and the lip is a concern, especially with my chonky Torras screen protector. May try one from Amazon for easy returns.
I'd love to be brave like you guys and try the slim ones as they look fantastic, but I just know I'd drop it. Would also have to remove/find a thin protector too in that situation.

Would love to get your impressions if you try it out. I had one briefly (twice) but that was before I gave up on cutouts.
I’ve been lucky and have only very rarely dropped my phone (I probably just jinxed myself… lol). I still wouldn’t go with these svelte cases if I didn’t have AppleCare+.
Wife got my 15 max and a new nomad folio rustic brown horween.
She won't use anything else, they can take a beating.

Have bought a lot of nomad stuff of the years, but they have knocked it out of the park with that case and band.Very nice, I like this combo
Their folio is top notch too if that's your thing, not mine but Mrs loves the colour and patina the rustic brown gets.
Their horween is the go not that big a fan of the modern, amazon sent a modern folio by mistake first and you can tell the diff.
Yep lol, at first I was not sure but after using it for a week no probs.
I actually use the button so it works nicely.
Such a nice feeling case to hold, the tan version is modern leather, only black and rustic brown is horween.
Buttons are excellent.
Just enough lip with a GSP and sides are straight.
Has correct cutouts and no rubber full leather.
It's same dims as the apple silicone I have, am selling both I have black and stone grey.
I didn't expect, that this color would look like this in real life. Very like it. Can't wait for mine to come.My Pitaka Forest replacement is much better than my original.

Currently using Arc, but considering switch to Pitaka Sunset.
Just when I gave up on cases now I’m tempted to pick this up .. does it have a nice tight fit ? On YouTube I recall some benks and pitakas had a corner that popped out easy but than again I barely trust YouTube reviews anymore . I trust this these forums with real users 😀
I have 5 Pitakas and they all fit great. I had 3 Benks cases that were returned for other reasons but they fit fine too. The only defects were one camera ring that came loose on a Pitaka, and some finish issues on the Benks (wrinkled corners and rough spots that were barely noticeable and probably not an issue for many). I bought all of these through Amazon so the returns were no problem.
Awesome thanks , I’m starting to like the thin cases ..I think the only bigger case I may go for is the Gen 6 if the button cover is ever added...
I have a sunset coming today and will post pics when it arrives
Have you got the blue version of that green one you have?
Looks really nice but not sure if it looks like a tea towel
Thanks, I have Sunset already for a month and its perfect case. I just like to switch often 😄.
But looking forward for you photos.
