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.
Got a tip for us?

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.

Instead of sending them out free of charge to YT reviewers they should concentrate on fulfilling paid orders.Looks nice with the Desert
The case is on pre-order now because they haven’t got any stock.
Cool, mine shows arrived at a warehouse but no idea if it's even in the US or not.
Benks, slow boat from China shipping sucks a big one.
I’ll be giving one away tonight on live and I should do a Macrumors only giveaway but I suck and don’t care about my community 😎.

Move on Bro.
Matte black was my first Arc for 14PM. It’s definitely more scratch resistant. I only mentioned after months of usage “polished” corners 😄.
Rose Bronze seems to be more scratch resistant than Graphite for me, I don’t know how it’s possible.
The thing is Tee most of us in here spend our hard earned money on cases so giveaway or no giveaway it doesn’t matter to us lol.
I respect you and always will. Most of us on here have been part of your YT journey and supported you with our views and likes.
If we ever needed any help or guidance always counted on you by tagging you in here etc.
Its not your fault its the company you keep outside MR.
My message to all them mods and members on your discord who personally accused me and my fellow friends is swivel on this _|_ 360 degrees.
Im effing 😡.
I don’t have an issue with you and you are more than welcome to come back to the discord whenever you feel. That goes for anyone in here because nobody is banned. I’m going to break all this down on my live stream tonight.
I’m more pissed that it was stated that I don’t care about my audience when you name me a creator that does giveaways where the winner does nothing. Not pay for shipping or anything and any given time because I’ll wait for someone to name one. Not some brand sponsored giveaway either.
I really want to highlight how bad of a comment that was.
Negative. I’ve trashed a case before when they sent it to me. You have some companies that will not want to send you anything if you give them negative reviews but majority of the companies like the feedback. This is a phone case not a smartphone. If a brand wants to cancel me out because of a negative review then I’ll just go buy it.
Well that’s your opinion but I’m not going to sit here and recommend a case if it’s bad because they sent it to me. This is a bad thought process that’s always being said. What’s the point if you aren’t going to be 100% with your audience? I wouldn’t have the following nor year after year wouldn’t have a major influence on the brands making improvements without feedback and recommendations.
How? I didn’t ask for multiple. I always tell brands please only send me one because I know how stock is of these cases sometimes. I don’t try to hoard all these cases.
My last best leather case video, who did I say was the best leather case? I flew out to Andar months ago and I told them to their face that Bullstrap leather cases were better and I told them the reasons why.
That’s no lie and I put that on anything.
That’s no lie and I put that on anything.
And do some of you realize how long I bought my own cases before I started getting send any of these cases? It was yearsssssss before companies started to really send me stuff and my same comments I complain back then are the same I complain about now. If I wasn’t honest 100% in my videos then I wouldn’t be where I am. My channel has grown based off my honesty. There are no overwhelming amount of comments with people not thinking im being truthful. I don’t get down like that and never will. People who aren’t creators never will understand how you build an audience off loyalty. I’ve NEVER said something positive about an accessory that was sent to me. But no matter how much I say you guys are going to think otherwise. The only crowd where I hear this nonstop from.
