Very eerie how well you know me.
Man that blows, it was always the best imo, pathfinder to slippery, plasma and plyo get greasy and scratches, the new civilian is slippery apparently.
I am still holding out with the OB Symmetry lol.
Holding out on all cases since I’ve been watching tons of videos on the ultra. ?More that likely I won’t be switching back to android, but man you never know. Lol.Very eerie how well you know me.
You could try the Metropolis if you are into folio style cases.
Just received the Pathfinder in Midnight Camo. It is slippery but not anymore so than the Plasma. Overall I’d rate them .... Monarch > Pathfinder > Plasma. Will post photos later tonight.
They have a saggier bottom and sides than the monarch from my last one anyway.
Yes, Samsung Canada. 10% off via Perkopolis. Free Galaxy Buds+
If anyone is looking for a unique clear case, with AWESOME grip, check out the Smartish Kung Fu Grip in “Nothin to Hide”. It does have a completely clear back, so it does show finger prints, but the sides are frosted and have great grip. Buttons are great and no sag. Have used their color cases before, when they were Silk, but not the clear.
Also using their “Nudist” case for my XR. It has a frosted back and clear sides, but the grip and buttons are great too!!

Pre orders here are Feb 21st, gives me plenty of time to fuhgeddaboudit !
Yeah it does, but I will look for some other UAG knockoff maybe. Do you know of any?
In the meantime I've added a black Otterbox Symmetry and a black Caudabe Sheath to the case collection.
First impressions:
Symmetry: hard plastic, back is very slippery, buttons good, thick which gives the impression protection is okay.
Sheath: sooo thin... nice grippy texture, buttons good, tiny raised lip so if the phone falls on anything but a totally flat surface (so typically on the street) it will damage the screen, case is so thin I wonder what happens when it drops. The "2m drop tested" is a nice claim, but I can't find a recent drop test anywhere.
My case ratings based on drop-confidence (of the cases I have):
1. Mous Clarity
2. Otterbox Symmetry
3. Tech21 Evo Check
4. Mous Limitless 3.0
5. Caudabe Sheath
My case ratings based when not taking drop protection into account:
1. Caudabe Sheath
2. Tech21 Evo Check
3. Otterbox Symmetry
4. Mous Clarity
5. Mous Limitless 3.0
So.... I'm clueless. Why doesn't anybody make a nice minimalistic case which is grippy and gives me confidence my phone will survive a drop out on the streets up to 2mtrs? Why?
(it doesn't have to survive a drop from a 15m tower)

Have you tried the a Silk/Smartish cases? Thicker than Sheath, but same texture/grip.
Has anyone tried this case by chance?

Just reading up and watching some videos, they have a clear back on all colors, even the black. For me that’s a no go.
Yeah that is kind of a bummer. Who knows if it will yellow, or be a fingerprint magnet.
Wait.. so are you saying based on drop protection you think Mous Clarity is the best? I have it but I like my Zizo Bolt more....
Yeah I have seen some drop tests for Mous. Not that great to be honest.
Do I need the new S20 Ultra 512GB in Cosmic Black?
I might have to start up a Go Fund Me page.
Lol no but if you do, make sure you have enough to score me one as well. ?
