Yea, the Battersea was one of my favorite cases for past phones. Couple months ago I saw it in Verizon, purchased it, went out to the car, saw the symmetrical cutouts and went right back in and returned it.

Just now saw it on Amazon (ships & sold by Amazon) for $18.00 and ordered it. I’ll live with incorrect cutouts for $18. but not for $50.

Not sure why symmetrical cutouts bother folks, lol. Doesn't bother me either way!

It's a good case definitely worth $18.00

Here it is on my Galaxy S10 Plus

Ahh man!! I’m going to have to pass. I really want the brown nomad folio since it ages nicely. Thanks for getting back to me though.

Bought the black nomad folio for $50, no returns so will have to be a keeeper lol. Would of been handy for my NZ trip last week, I had the Apple folio for IPX but can’t justify $200aud for the pro.

Still like the ob symmetry but ready for some leather again, the plastic/rubber starting to feel cheap.

I’m jealous man. That case looks really nice and the patina on your xr looks amazing so far!

I’ve had the rhinoshield for my previous phones and it’s a good case. It’s slippery though. Some of the textured backs have a little more grip. I tried the bumper case on my xr and it was really hard to get used to. The boarders of the phone were bulky and when held the back and front felt to recessed. They’re great cases though if you don’t mind it being a little slippery. I’d say it’s just as slick as the back of the black symmetry.

Hey guys, new here but I’m rocking a rhinoshield solidsuit, was actually wondering if the OB symmetry is any ‘slimmer’ in profile than the solidsuit or are both cases practically the same in terms of thinness and handling. I know the solidsuit is generally slicker than the OB, but I was wondering which was slimmer in profile!

Also as a sidenote, for those who have both cases, which is easier to remove? The OB or the Rhino

The solid suit is going to be thicker than the OB symmetry and it’s also going to be slicker since the sides don’t have any tpu/rubber like the symmetry. It’s also easier to remove the phone from the otterbox.

Reading about the SolidSuit makes me wonder if RhinoShield fixed the peeling problem some people had with SolidSuit with the iPhone X (including me). Anyone here used it for a few weeks or longer?

Still using the Apple leather case. Put another coat of Smith’s leather balm on for added grip. I have the nomad rugged brown folio case in the basket. I just can’t pull the trigger at $80.

What were you using before the lug?

The Monarch, then the Lug, then the Sheath, now back in the Lug until the Battersea arrives tomorrow
