Yup Liz was right.
Caudabe got nothing new to announce.

If they did have anything, they would highly
unlikely do it early hours of a Monday morning, immediately after the 15% sale ends
iPhone 16 and Black Friday were all up early hours. But yes understandable not the appropriate hours to create buzz for new releases.
Wow, interesting move. BWT. what color of Arc do you have? I kind of like how its changing colors 😄.
I will stick with both and switch time to time. Arc Pulse is very nice, but on 16PM I don't like it as much as on 14PM (I don't know why).
Also even I know, Arch will send me replacement, I don't like how quickly getting scratches. And I don't believe, that it will be better with their Titaniums version for $300.
Even I currently have Arc Pulse Rose Bronze on phone, can't wait for Pitaka Snake Ridge, that is on the way also for my 2 replacements from Pitaka (Forest Green and Monogram) to try.
Good luck with sell. In our country there is almost 0 chance to sell it. People here buying $1 TPU ***** and putting on $1000 phones 😄
Mine looks nothing like that, could it be a Pro/Pro Max issue? I have the Pro.
I have 16 PM and no issue!
No idea then, didn’t have the issue on my 15 Pro case either. 🤷🏻♂️
I have the graphite. I mostly lay my phone face down, so the scratches have been minimal so far. The finish is delicate for sure though.
Tungsten carbide finishes are used in jewelry making and are quite scratch resistant. It would definitely be more scratch resistant than the polished aluminum finish.
I have a matte black on order - they’re finally available from Amazon. Supposedly that finish is more resistant to scratches, we’ll see. I’m getting it mainly because I think it will look good on the black phone.
The snake designs look very nice.
I’ve never had any luck selling a set of cases, so I’ll be surprised if these sell. No big deal either way. 😊
The other question will be whether non-Apple charging cables will fit in the USB-C opening. I know that was an issue with the non-CC version without the open bottom.
What’s funny is this has been a thing for cases since the 15 pros. Since the change to USB-C several cases have had this issue. Funny enough, both of my Apple silicone cases have it. Both the Lake Green and Plum both have a gap at the charging port. So definitely not just an issue with 3rd party.
Yes I got it a few days back but I’ve not got around to trying it yet.
They both look really nice, apart from the bulge on the CC button 2.55 mins in on the Prestige. The USB-C cutout on the Armour Pro is laughable.Looks nice with the Desert
Always liked the question mark MagSafe design. I will say the magnet is much improved over gen 1.0. Not only does it not stick out making any accessory easy to knock off, but the magnets are far stronger IMO.
Only thing I’ve seen on mine is the side is a bit loose around the volume and action buttons. I.e when you pull the edges a bit there is quite a bit of give right at that button cluster. If you look around the border the middle raised part with all the lines must be the structure for the frame, which is interrupted for each button. The camera button, power, and usb part at the bottom are not as loose.
I've been hemming and hawing about a Benks Prestige. I decided against ordering direct, given all the issues. I notice on Amazon (US) the Benks storefront says that the Prestige with Camera Control button is coming to Amazon "soon". I might give it a try when it is available from Amazon.

The case is on pre-order now because they haven’t got any stock.
