I ended up using a my heat gun on the contour case. Heating up the bottom lip and firmly pressing it in while it cooled solved the saggy bottom. I’ll hold onto this one until my limitless comes in. I also ordered a nomad rugged case, but that is back ordered until November 20th.

If anyone needs a FLOLAB NanoArmour 3D screen protector I have a spare one that I would sell for the $20.00 I have into it. Plus you would not have to wait 15 days for it to arrive from China. Ordered 3 and only need one. :oops:

Mine took about a month to arrive and it’s still sitting in a drawer. Lol I stuck with the spigen glass screen protector.

The only Mous cases with a decent grip on the back are the Clarity, Contour Colors edition (especially speckled black) and Limitless 3.0 leather version. This matters for cold areas in winter when hands get dry ?

So dropped my 11 pro about 3ft onto the road today in my CarbonThat case, landed on the back few marks on the case but phone all good. Case did its job and I love the slimness of it but think I might need something more solid. Cost $2k this thing.
Guessing the OB Symmetry is the slimmest drop proof?

FLOLAB work great with the Mous Limitless 3.0 and Contour cases. I don't have the Clarity case so can't say. I put FLOLAB's on two different iPhones with two different Mouse limitless cases and they fit perfect. The whole screen is protected edge to edge fitting snug up against the case. No gap areas of unprotected screen to get damaged.

Glad you were able to fix it but that is the exact reason I will never buy from Mous. Maybe if it were a $5 or even $10 case that would be acceptable but I can't see how they charge such a high price for such a mediocre product.

How easy did the clear back scratch?
kinda curious myself also. the catalyst case looks really nice. i ordered the mobosi vanguard case and will arrive today, trying to decide if i should return it and get the catalyst.

well i kinda expect it to scratch unless i put the phone and keys on separate pockets

It’s surprisingly scratch resistant. I just had a look and couldn’t actually see any scratches unless I held it right up to bright light at the right angle. Even then, they were tiny hairline ones. It wasn’t my everyday case for the X, but it was used a fair bit and I wasn’t particularly careful with it.

BTW, the little mute dial is irresistibly fun to fiddle with. ?

Got the Symmetry today for bargain price of $20Aud. hard to fault this case good job OB, buttons are are as good as Apple leather. Have enjoyed my thin CarbonThat but after dropping my phone the other day on the road it did survive as landed on the back, but has no front protection, not going to take the risk, 2k for 11 pro 256gb here lol.

I’m starting to feel the same way. The older I get I find myself dropping my phone quite a bit more. I’m going to have to just give up my Apple leather case and switch to something with a little more protection.

a week with my UAG Civilian case but the orange parts got so dirty so quick :confused: besides that it’s probably my favorite Pro Max case.
Do you by chance have any pics of the orange starting to discolor? I ordered a limitless case yesterday, but I also want the drab green civilian and I’m worried about that orange discoloring.

Yea, can you post a couple pictures showing the dirty orange? Does it clean up at all?

Back in the Caudabe Synthesis this morning. Man, I love these thin cases but worry about drop protection.

i’ll see if i can take some pictures! But like it’s been in and out of my pockets a few times the first day and it was already discolored a bit. I tried wiping it down with alcohol pads but that didn’t work at all :(

Maybe UAG will send you a replacement if you email them? That sucks especially if it's permanent.

That doesn’t look to bad. I just went to Best Buy and picked up a tech 21 evo check in all black. I’ll try this case for about a week before I decide if I’m going to order the civilian.
