Okay, call me crazy but this latest Sheath is excellent. Maybe my imagination, but the sides seem like they are much more rounded off and just feel great in the hand. The seams are still there but not sharp at all on this version. The seam on the bottom looks the most pronounced, but I'm not feeling any sharpness at all. The bottom ports are also now perfectly aligned on this one. Works perfect with the new BlueO plateau protector, no front edges peeking out or any other problems using the BlueO.

Overall, this latest Sheath is a WINNER :cool: Here are some pics:

Man that looks so nice.

I love your dust plugs. Cant get those ones here in UK.
 
Black Sheath w/ Celestial Blue buttons. It came with install instructions so must be new stock. It is perfect! No harsh seams, bottom port is nicely centered, buttons don’t rattle. I love it!

Those buttons look like a perfect match :)
Yes they’re perfect!

I had a Gray Sheath and Synthesis Frosted in that same order but I will be returning them. That Black Sheath with Celestial Blue buttons is it!

I do have a Black Paragon and Blue Sheath on order, I’m going to cancel the Blue Sheath and just wait for the Black Paragon to compare to Sheath.

Can’t do wrong with black with silver iPhone.

How does someone know if they have the latest revision of the Sheath? I received mine a week and a half ago, it seems perfect except for two issues:

1) The camera mic cut out isn't perfectly centered, mine looks exactly like your last pic, slightly to the left.

2) My buttons have a very slight rattle\movement, it's not excessive and might be normal? It's more pronounced on the power button.

Other than those two minor issues, the case is perfect. The rear seams are smooth, fitment is tight and uniform around the screen, and the bottom speaker cut outs are centered.
 
Torn between caudabe sheath (expensive/heavy), paragon (expensive/heavy), spigen liquid air (no magsafe), ringke onyx (no camera control button). I have a 13 pro with a sheath right now and i like it but its heavy. 17 pro with sheath 7g+ heavier.


Can someone verify the weight of the paragon case for standard pro. And does anyone know if caudabe makes you pay return shipping from canada?

Sheath
54.7g -Pro max
45g -Pro

Paragon
48.6g -Pro max
????? -Pro
