I just tried the Paragon on to see if it was really that hard to remove and was prepared for the worstā¦ Why are yāall lying, this thing is easier to remove than the Mous, the Tineeowl, the PR Gen 7, and of course the Tank š It slips off the phone by itself basically. Or maybe Iām just used to stubborn cases by now š
Also, yeah it sits below the screen protector in the middle of the phone. The Dbrand Grip is the same in that regard. Feels very nice in the hand though.

Yours sits below the screen protector? Mine is either flush or a hair above.

That Tank is way busier than the basic grid pattern of the Magpul, a purposeful design without being overdone.

Actually, I think itās not that difficult to do a custom paint job on the Tank, remove buttons, cover CC button with a tape and use a spray can with a color you want š

Use something like this. Itāll soak in and if there are runs will smooth itself out. Wonāt flake off.
Bellroy sent me a replacement, then refunded me, no returns needed.

It could be that itās not seating properly due to the bulging MagSafe magnets, which could make the lip sit lower than normal and make it easily slip off the phone as you described.

Not sure how well it would hold up in a drop but I forgot how much I kinda liked this case. Sides low and top and bottom have a lip; Paragon esque.

Yeah, I think youāre right. Weāll see how the replacement fits when it arrives.

I had two Paragons, the first one was Moonstone (which I sold), and the second one is current Midnight Precise, and theyāre both have the same fit. I got them in February. Maybe itās the first batches from 2025 that are ultra hard to remove?
I really hope the new Paragon isn't that hard to remove anymore. Every time I take the case off, I'm expecting to find scratches, and I absolutely hate it. š Thatās actually the reason why I use the Paragon way less than Appleās silicone cases. But the new Paragon color is just so gorgeous...

Always liked Apple silicone cases but I can't use them as they are terrible for getting in and out of my pocket, this is the only year I haven't bothered to try one
