Some are reporting that the metal plateau surround is very sharp.
Zero fingerprints and smudges on the Synthesis back and sides.
Major downside for me is how thick and boxy it is. Completely disrupts the phone’s shape factor. Would definitely be the best case if it were a little rounded at the edges and a little shorter screen lip.

I had the Aurora and Prestige at the beginning of the cycle around September/October and the fit wasn’t great. It was warped in a few areas around the lip on both cases. I remember the same issue for the 16 Pro Max as well.
I saw a video from Tee a little while back and I believe he mentioned they revised the fit so might good now but don’t quote me.
I loved Benks last year (ArmorAir) but have lost interest in them now.

Better texture on the back?

Yea, it's a tiny bit better, nothing to write home about.

My phone had its first fall last night. It slipped off the headboard of the bed from about chest height onto the wooden floor. Landed on its side. Both phone and the Sheath it was in seem to be fine. That was scary 🫠😅

How’s the fit and finish? All good? No defects, warping, etc?

Pretty good! There’s a very slight warping at the camera button, but it’s very difficult to notice and no metal frame is visible. Interestingly, the buttons have a snugger fit and protrude less when compared to my Moonstone Paragon. New revision? 🤔

Thanks. Could be a revision, could be inconsistencies in manufacturing. I hate to be this negative, but I’ve had so many issues with their cases over the past couple of years that I’d assume it’s just poor quality control.

I am sure it's illusion - but that looks incredibly thin on the phone. I do like the pattern on back; breaks it up a little al be it not any different in hand to hold or harder to drop.

Not an illusion, I don’t know about incredibly thin but the Moft is not bulky at all. It’s very form fitting to the phone. Feels like the old Apple Leather case form. Been using mine for almost a month now and it’s still perfect, great case imo.

Yeah I have the $5 Verizon Moft special - guess I need to dig it back out.

Call me crazy, but the Tombogo version does feel a little thinner in the hand, even though it is 1 gram heavier.
The Moft is the sleeper case of the year. When I have the Moft on, I have no desire to change cases.

I feel like it replaces the Apple Leather and Otterbox Symmetry.
Not interested in the case but has anyone tried the moft wallet? I like that it functions as a wallet and a stand and it seems like they have a find my version now.

I had one a fair while back and the pleather didn't last long, one reason I haven't entertained their phone cases.
Ahh yeah the unfortunate thing with pleather. Same reason I’m not getting one of their cases. I’m still considering the wallet though for the find my and stand capabilities. Since it’s a wallet and not a case, I’m okay with a bit of peeling.

I also like the Moft Case. I was using the Navy Blue before I got my caudabe cases. The Problem is that I am using a Magsafe Holder in my Car and the Popsocket when I am at home. It will leave a fine mark after a while. That`s why I also can`t use Leather Cases myself even if I would really like them.
