I’m still waiting for my preorder to come in. I think the Rebel version is shipping this week.
Rebel cases were supposed to ship on 6/8. He just posted on Insta that there was a manufacturing problem that will delay shipment by ANOTHER week.
I’m still waiting also on the Rebel case. Just too many excuses.
Still waiting on my DBrand Grip for iPhone 11 Pro. Ordered an black Otterbox Symmetry case. Should be here today. Anyone like the OB Symmetry?
Thanks for the heads up. The TPU is more a bit more flexible than the last cast I was using. Especially near the volume buttons. Other than that, buttons are great, feel in hand is great, and I enjoy the understated look.
Done.
Evutec cases
Another thank you to @Min Wang at Evutec for sending me an AER Sport case to review! So some thoughts... Pros - it makes the iPhone 11 Pro Max bigger but it doesn’t feel like a brick. It feels... solid. - The buttons are great! Very clicky! - My wife usually rolls her eyes at my case...

Just slapped on my new DBrand Grip case for my iPhone 11 Pro. First impressions: basically a Rhinoshield SolidSuit, with better handling from the grippy sides. The buttons are just as or more tactile than the SolidSuit. Almost looks just like a SolidSuit case too, but has more aggressive styling. I didn’t get any skins with the case, because I’m just not into them.
I’ll update in a week and again in a month.

Update on blacked out leather UAG Monarch. Still love this case! Got a few compliments already on it, even from a girl lol.
I find that a microfiber gets rid of the fingerprints on the matte black frame quite easily so I'm not too worried about that. Bottom isn't saggy and the case doesn't feel loose.

Has anyone got the Rebel case by EverythingApplePro? Very interested in a review.
The Rebel case is soooooo ugly tho...
After a lot of cases I'm back to Tech21 Evo Check. It works, saved previous phones numerous times.
Spigen Liquid Air and Otterbox Symmetry are okay. Rest of the lot that I tried is a future no-go.
Rhinoshield SolidSuit/ModNX and/or Dbrand Grip are the only two I might check out. Had a SolidSuit before (Pixel3) and it was so hard-plasticy-non-grippy that I'm reluctant to give it another chance.

I don't have the pics yet, but I would like to share some thoughts on the DBrand Grip. It is extremely similar to the Rhinoshield SolidSuit, so I'll be doing a lot of comparing.
1. It's basically a Rhinoshield SolidSuit, except slightly grippier. Literally the only thing that makes this case slightly grippier are the sticky ridges on each side of the case.
2. The edges are sharper than the SolidSuit. The cutouts at the bottom are sharp. Resting the phone on your pinky hurts after a few minutes. Also, there is perimeter around the back of the case (pictured below) that has uncomfortable edges when using the phone for prolonged times. Stuff like dust and debris can get lodged in here as well.
4. I don't use a DBrand skin with the case. Just bare. The back of the case isn't really grippy or tacky at all. The back of the plain black back of the SolidSuit is actually grippier.
5. Appearances: Other than the somewhat grippy ridges on the sides of the case and the "GRIP" logo on the back, it's nearly identical in looks to the plain black SolidSuit. Side by side, it's hard to tell the difference if you can't see the "GRIP" lettering.
6. Buttons: the buttons are good, if not great on the Grip. The only thing that bothers me is that my lock button makes a creak sound when I press it.
7. The Grip fits the phone tight, but not as tight as the SolidSuit.
8. Conclusion: If you want a case for protection and really want to use a DBrand skin, then this case is for you. If you just want great protection (no skin), I'd just get a Rhinoshield SolidSuit.

My pleasure! I believe the plain black SolidSuit has the most tack on the backplate. The sides are all the same. I have not had the leather, but I had the carbon for my XS and it was slippery. Haven’t used the ModNX yet, so I can’t comment on that comparison.
I’ve switched back to the plain black Rhinoshield SolidSuit. However, my case addiction has tricked me into purchasing 3 different Cyrill Color Brick by Ciel cases (subsidiary of Spigen).
MobileReviewsEH gave it a really good review and is very affordable for the quality delivered. Looking forward to these cases. Will have them in time for the weekend!

I wish I could be cured. I have a big drawer at my office that is packed full of cases for the 11 Pro and Pro Max. I switch between all of them throughout the life cycle of the phone.
Received my Cyrill Color Brick by Ciel today for my iPhone 11 Pro. First impression: do not sleep on this case. Not sure how this one flew under the radar for so long, but this case so far is checking all the right boxes for an overall fantastic looking and handling case. I'll elaborate further in about a week or so.
Anyone know of any cases similar to the UAG which are light and have similar corner protection?
