Dbrand grip is excellent. Love it on my pro max and my Air

Contemplating upgrading from my 13 pro to a 17 pro but not sure what case to get.
I have a sheath on my 13 pro (204g + 40g) and was thinking of getting a sheath for the 17 pro (206g + 45g) but the QC issues and increase in weight sucks as the 13 is already heavy.
Don't need crazy drop protection but similar coverage as the sheath minus weight would be nice.
Any recommendations?

I had a sheath on my 12PM and 14PM, but this year decided to branch out. I’ve got a Pitaka Ultraguard case currently and a Techwoven sienna case on order. Sometime before next spring I’ll pick up a Quadlock case for my cycling activities, and I’ll probably end up with a Nomad leather case too.
You are going to need a crowbar to get this off the phone
Symmetry a definite pass this year?
The Best Buy near me has a nice selection of cases.

FWIW, this worked. They accepted to include a free set of buttons (I went with Cobalt) and switched my case to precise from open. It's on it's way here (currently in transit from China).
I was torn from the beginning between the two and the idea of getting it one month faster plus a free set of buttons, tipped the scale to it
Got it this morning and yep it’s a dream to hold! Plus way lighter than with the Ghost by about 10g.
Mine is fine on volume button side but on the other one all the way to the bottom it’s like papercut level sharp. Still haven’t heard back from support about getting a Sheath replacement and returning Paragon - I hope not all batches are like this because that’s not worth the price and feels like a knock-off of the Sheath I had on my previous phones that some Temu brand started producing.

Turning into a sad sorry affair. I’ll give them an opportunity to make this right.
For me its bottom and the CC side.

Mine was sharp right out of the box. Call me crazy but the more I use the case the sharper it gets 😩
The black Synthesis was a complete fail with the discolored back panel. The Sheath has loose as a goose buttons and razor sharp edges. Now, the Paragon with it’s magnets installed backwards 🤡 What’s next?
The only decent case so far was the frost Synthesis. Everything else has been a complete FAIL 🤡
Where are the 17PM Paragons? I’m guessing they were all shipped from the manufacturer with backwards magnets and they had to start over from scratch 🤡

My paragon for the 17Pro has been perfect. I guess they got one right.
Its my fault for saying Im Done. I guess Im Not Done.
Hopefully you’ll hear something within the next 30-60 days 🤣
Whoa, those are some serious mold lines.
Just chiming in to remind you all - all these Caudabe issues are you, the customers fault, for continuing to order and expect better.
This was my Caudabe for 15 maybe?
If that mold line is sharp and isn’t right here is what’s going to happen next
Sorry my pics suck:

Lmao. You twit 😒.
Im away from tomorrow so will keep an eye on my emails.
Truly disappointed tbh but plus side is their table suggests 17 Pro cases will be shipping from Late October which is today lol.
My replacements will come before you get your Sep Pre Order lol.
I’d like to iterate that what you’re implying here is the completely the wrong end of the stick.Just chiming in to remind you all - all these Caudabe issues are you, the customers fault, for continuing to order and expect better.
Ordering, despite knowing their horrendous timekeeping and pushing back dispatch dates, and then moaning endlessly about it can be avoided by not ordering at all or waiting until they actually have free stock.
Issues with the product such as the above once received is a completely different matter and argument.
