There definitely is on the left; but nothing on the right (new caudabe sheath for 16P). I’m sorry, I should have said the left is my current caudabe sheath on my 15PM.
I'm talking about the buttons? Is there protective covering on the insides?
I can't tell from the picture.

Ah my bad, the quote doesn’t show me the picture. I’m unsure if the button is coated, or just anodized. Only time will tell if it leaves marks I suppose. Personally, I always get a new phone every year and my phone almost never leaves its case (maybe 3 times in a year), so I’m not too concerned.

Another cheap beater in today. The JETech $15.00 special is a decent frosted case. Very similar to the Spigen Ultra Hybrid frosted. Overall a decent case for $15. Last pics are it side by side with the Spigen.

That cut out. It will take time to get use to it otherwise that Black Sheath is inch perfect.
Yea it looks deeper than I expected. I guess I'll hold judgement until I see it in person. The button is right where the phones rests in my palm when holding it one handed.

FWIW, I ended up trying the Suti on my 15 Pro and absolutely loved it, it was my favourite of the year in the end. It shocked me tbh, ordered on a whim and didn't expect to like it. So much so that I have already pre-ordered the NanoSuede in 'Polar Fleece' and Carbon Fiber versions for my pre-ordered 16 Pro.

The founded Lon is also super responsive on emails etc, had a bit of chat with him. I have absolutely zero affiliation with Suti, but just love the product and loved the customer service.

I also totally appreciate that most on here will think this is absolute sacrilege!! I get that most people want a case that also protects the sides. I'm a little different - I'd always been desperate to use my phone naked but too scared. Every time I swapped cases and held it naked I was reminded how much I love it. I saw this and it made me consider that actually I'm pretty careful with my phone, and that most of the time I'm just setting it down on a desk etc and don't want to scratch the back. So saw this and thought I'd try. So don't anyone shout!! 🤣 I know I'm in the minority!!

I pre-ordered the nano suede in blue. I usually use my phone completely naked, so this is a case I can get behind for exactly your reasons. Just protecting the camera lenses from getting scratched up. I'm currently rocking a 15 PM with only camera lens protectors on it and nothing else. I'm interested in the Suti because I know that having a back case can make mag safe wallets stick better.

I think the extra cutout is the lease thing to worry about with a majority of these ugly cases. The Beats and pitaka are the only ones that look semi decent. Everything else is straight out of 2012

"I know what brands are going to be have revisions to improve the situation, but I won't tell you which ones because then you won't click my affiliate links to order these crappy first gen cases."
I could care less if someone uses my links, I don't push my links like that, I put them in the description and go from there. I don't say the brands so everyone here in the forum can bombard them with emails complaining because that's exactly what's going to happen.

if you folks only knew the real about what's going on before blurting out some nonsense.

The Bandwerk cases I purchased for the 15PM did not thrill me at all and I was sorry I bought them.

Their new case in Shocking orange for the 16PM has sparked my interest again :oops:

And I'm sure these companies would never share any information with you again if you did name names.

People seriously have to think about it. Nobody told me not to say anything but im not going to set the companies up like that. I'm simply trying to keep everyone in the loop on what's going on but there is always someone trying to come start something.

I think you did the right thing by not naming the companies. For your own relationship with them as well as their own handling of customer feedback which I agree, would be nothing less than bombardment. Also, we as customers never want false promises - so it’s better not to know IMO. I appreciate your videos.
