It’s going to be interesting to see if your aramid version also has the warping problem around the camera control. Because mine does too. Mous is sending me a replacement, but I don’t have high hopes for it.

A heat wave in Europe made me want to get some summer vibes ☀️🍹😎
It’s so unusually smooth, slim and lightweight after rotating mostly between Tank and Mous cases.

Paragon replacement has arrived. Same production date. This one is much better but still has a small protrusion on one side. But I think I’ll accept that, because compared to the other version I have here, this is hardly noticeable. I looks worse than it feels.
Removing the case is still super easy. And it still sits a tiny bit below my screen protector in the middle of the phone. 🤷🏻♀️

I also have to say, this case feels amazing. The grippy sides together with the sorta frosted back make it very nice to hold. I get why so many people love it.
I cannot wait to get my replacement!! 😍

Well, that was a bust. Received the Mous this morning and it had the same loose area around the CC as others have described. I removed the button, bent the edge inward, tried all the normal tricks, but no go. It’s a shame because the case looks and feels great otherwise. It’ll be going back to Amazon.

That sucks. I better break out my Mous cases and see if I have the loose CC button area. My Mous leather feels like medium grit sandpaper along the front screen lip. This normal?

Yeah, you all have to rub and massage your Mous cases 🤣

The copies I’ve had have a pleasant texture, nothing like the Sheath or Tank. Maybe more like fine grit sandpaper… 😊

Just threw my Mous black leather back on and I think my hole is good?
Need to track down my aramid fiber later and check it's hole 🤣

I’ve seen enough of these with the same issue that I’ll probably just ask for a refund. Not really in the mood to play the case lottery, and also don’t want to PO Amazon with multiple returns of the same product. It’s probably not going to beat the Beats anyway…

Yours looks good. 👍🏼 On mine there is an obvious sliver of metal showing along the edge at the CC.

Just put the black open Paragon back on. Is that orange CC button a bit too much?
Also, what is the correct way to install a Paragon? Top in first (like Sheath instruction pamphlet) or by side first?
I just put this on with the top in first and it felt like it was going to rip out my side buttons 🙁

I always put my phone into Paragon from the right side (Where power and CC buttons are).
No, the orange CC button is not too much! Looks great.
I always start from the left side. 😂

It’s very difficult to capture real color of Neon Yellow.
