I've given up for now with our snail mail would be into the new year before i would get anything, see what the boxing day sales hold :)
I am down to my one and only OB symmetry, everything else returned.

Wow no kidding? I've sent most back but still have a few that I have not returned. Not sure why though lol.

Lol same here. I’m down to my saddle brown and black Apple cases. Well, I still have a handful of other cases, but I’ve thrown them into my phone/car parts bedroom in hopes I won’t give in and try to use them.

I just put it in my cart as well. Must resist.

Has anyone tried one of the Bellroy cases by chance? How are they?
I haven’t tried their cases, but their wallet reviews have been great. I would think their cases are also top notch.

Tough case from red bubble showed up. Asymmetrical cutouts.

Looks glossy...is it slippery? Think it will scratch easy and/or often?
Slightly glossy. In my experience the lighter colors don’t show too much. I had a darker case for my X a few years ago. Showed scratches and finger prints like crazy.
Not slippery at all. Slightly “tacky”

Nice, wonder how easy the printing will scratch?
Hopefully not too quickly. my daughter and I have had several of their tough cases. They are more durable than most would believe. She had one that took a significant fall (close to 6 feet and down stairs). Only a slight crack in the case at the bottom and the phone was fine.
The rubber is also very firm. There is no give anywhere.

Carbon looks good, it’s taller/thicker than the symmetry right?

The Monarch is taller and thicker but not as wide of the Symmetry. The Monarch makes the phone kind of square/brick like feeling but has fabulous grip. Here are a couple pics next to the Symmetry.

i’m upset that the “carbon fiber” is slippery. wish i would’ve got the “pleather” one instead ?

my dbrand grip shipped today, and from Toronto too which means i’ll probably end up getting it after Xmas ?

The carbon Monarch is not slippery.

They (Dbrand) say Toronto in the email but the case actually ships from New York.

Today I stopped at Best Buy to see what cases they have. Saw an Otterbox with pop socket on sale so grabbed it. Cashier said it was put in the wrong spot but would still give it to me for the price of $37.49. Feels great and love it so far!..

I’ve been wanting this case for sometime now. It was either that or the regular black symmetry and slap my own pop socket on there. I like not having to hassle with placing my own on the case.
