I‘m glad my version for the pro has no sagging/bowing of any kind. Fits like a glove.
Got a tip for us?

Yep. Expected to ship by late this month. If I decide to pull the trigger, it will be when they are available (not preordering). I need a detailed comparison Sheath vs. Paragon though.

Well it’s currently on my phone, just because it fits so well and is very protective. I don’t like the edge, it’s just not as comfortable to hold as all the cases who follow he curve of the phone. But everything else is flawless, really. I had the same case on my 15PM, so I knew what to expect. In fact my husband, who took over the 15PM from me and is usually a leather case guy is currently also rocking my old Mous case because it’s so grippy and he tends to drop the phone a lot and he liked the case on my 17 Pro. Can’t really go wrong with it.
In other news, my Ryan London case seems to have finally shipped. I got no email from them, but a DHL notification that I’m getting a package from the UK, which can only be the case. Really looking forward to that one. I love a good leather case and have only heard good things about them.
Meanwhile, the Grip case hasn’t moved since Nov. 13th and seems to be stuck in customs for now.

Whilst I was away for few days Ive been a good boy. No case was purchased but I did grab this bad boy (finally available in UK).
Still double minded about Apple Pocket. I need to go see them in store before I purchase one.

My hands like a case that follows the curves of the iPhone.
Same here. Still holding out hope for the PR Gen 7 as my GOAT, which has still not shipped from Amazon sadly.
Getting the Caudabe Paragon tomorrow, we will see how the slick back is. 15 feet drop protection is all I need.
This is likely to be my new daily. Sorry, pics suck but the way it rolls sides up feels great in hand. Good cutout for charger. No pinky fatigue. Super hard to get odd. Obviously light and really only “bump duty” level of protection. Something about “holding phone” with bare sides is
(In first pic the flash and such is centered holding phone at slight angle created illusion it’s not)
This thing does fingerprint like crazy unfortunately. Lesser of evils though so it’s still going strong in favorite case contender lol
Is Paragon more protective than a Sheath?
Debating between Sheath and Grip…
Hopefully the smooth back will work for me. If anything like the old Synthesis, I didn’t like the smooth plasticy back.
🔥 Tee! I prefer open camera area cutout though! I may pull the trigger on open moonstone.
Yes and no. At least on the version for the Air, the edge is still there, but it’s rounded a bit compared to previous years. It used to really bother me, but it’s not a problem on the current model. YMMV.
I had one for my 15 Pro and it was awful and i heard the 16 Pro versions were no better, was hoping for an improvement this year but it doesnt sound like it.
