After 2 weeks of not receiving a response from Tech21, I took to Twitter, where I received an immediate response. Then it took 2 more days to get a response to my claim. They are sending me out a replacement case. I'll let you know if the fit is any different at all when it arrives.
Got the Tech21 Evo Mesh for my 7+, hopefully Mophie will release a juice pack for the 7+ soon though as I normally use those
https://www.amazon.com/Ostart-iPhon...8&qid=1476351402&sr=8-47&keywords=OSTART+CASE I have it for mine and am very happy with it. I use the promo code: 3L6TYRWC, It only cost me $2.99.

Hey, everyone! I am awaiting the arrival of my 7+! Anyone tried the X-Doria brand--in particular, the Impact Pro? I already ordered a Speck Presidio; but wanted a less expensive, yet strong clear case. It is only like 13 bucks. Is it a waste of money?
The words "OtterBox" and "minimum bulk" don't go together.
UAG redesigned this case from the 6/6S version sold last year. It's way slimmer and feels lighter. It fits like a glove and it's made from "frog skin" material that is water resistant. The inside pocket is smooth, buttery suede-like material that holds 1-2 cards/IDs firmly.
There is a magnetic clasp (works great) that securely keeps the front lid in place and it's super easy to open (sliding mechanism) and close. Flawless execution on UAG's part IMO.
There is a speaker cut-out on the front lid which is great because you can talk on your iPhone with the flap/lid closed. The camera cut-out in the back is generous with no flash feedback whatsoever.
Never been a fan of previous UAG cases (Pathfinder, Plasma, Monarch, etc) but the Metropolis is a definite winner. I've already ordered a cobalt blue one to go along with this black one.
Also in case of anyone wants to know, the glass screen protector is Zagg HD Glass+. I purchased it after seeing Kristin's YouTube review of it for her iPhone 7 Plus and it definitely lives up to the hype. Premium look, feel and performance. Easy to install and the oleophobic coating is amazing. No fingerprint oils or smudging whatsoever. It's not E2E but I wasn't looking for nor do I prefer a screen protector that is E2E. Not cheap but the quality is on point - unlike the majority of the cheaper ones on Amazon.

Hi guys!
So far I have a caseology case off amazon that's pretty nice and cheap (iPhone 7 Plus Case, Caseology [Parallax Series] Modern Slim Geometric Design [Black / Deep Blue] [Textured Grip] for Apple iPhone 7 Plus (2016) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01KKWFDVS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_v38ayb9D8Q0B5).
I originally had the dark blue apple case but it was to slick and would slide out of my pocket
I ordered this one recently and like. I to am addicted to cases. I have this case https://casefather.com/products/original-carbon-slim-shockproof-iphone-7-7-case?variant=31323166218
On my matte black 7+ 256gb

so after settling on the Spigen Thin Fit which has the area for the magnetic plate, I still wanted one similar but with fuller coverage.
I think I found it. decided to try the Ringke SLIM...
^
even allows for a strap

I was surprised not to see or even feel a bulge from the thin magnetic plates I used
it's definitely thinner than the Thin Fit, and doesn't feel as grippy/rubbery, but because of that, it doesn't get as greasy. overall, it satisfies most of what I want. the one thing that bugs the heck out of me is the slightly crooked Branding on the back of my Plus case.

Love the look of that.
and the front edge does clear the screen from any flat surface even with my tempered glass protector. same goes for the rear camera lens cover.
I went with these...

they were thinner than my Scosche ones.
