What happens when you put it on? Seems like the rigidity of the phone would hold the case straight and keep it from doing the wobble on a flat surface.
Or am I off base here? I know Mous cases tend to have the same defect and I see a lot of people returning them for it.

Looks like that case has a case of the Mous Banana Boat bend
Probably a good fidget spinner if you flip it over on it's back.
Definitely return it. I don’t know what their process is, but maybe the phone was bent as they were screen printing.

You're totally right about it being a spinner. The fact that it is concave shaped, it has no grip on any flat surface.
I'm SO pissed off. Let me show you a pic. I don't know whether I should laugh or cry. It ain't the way I want protection for my $1000 phone.
I’m Laugin so hard I spilled my chocolate milk about the fidget above.
That legit sucks. But I’m still tore up laughing lol

Yes, issue is finally being resolved. Fingers crossed. I'm sure my case is just a fluke. Usually their products are very good.

Got the regular Otterbox Defender in the mail. Will update tomorrow with pictures! I read the Defender has been updated to be much slimmer than previous designs.
Love this.
Most case companies will send you a replacement for free and let you keep the original one also.
Incipio Duo case in today. This is a two piece case like the Otterbox Commuter. Softer silicone liner with a hard outer shell. Case fits the phone great, lays nice and flat on the back, looks fantastic but the buttons SUCK 🤢 Thought I found the perfect case until I tried to buttons. Was going to order the black so I could use the black shell with the volt green liner but think I'll hold off for now. Here are a couple pics:
Here are a couple pics:Got my Sheath in Ocean Blue today. Good case. May do the razor blade on the volume buttons trick as they are slightly mushy. Power button is fine. Blue looks really nice. Texture is very similar to the Ringke Onyx I have, though a touch "rougher" but not in a bad way.
Seems like I can settle on a rotation of:
Bullstrap in Sienna
Apple silicone in Cypress Green
Caudabe Sheath in Ocen Blue
Spigen Thin Fit in Navy Blue
I have a couple of black cases as well if that mood should ever strike me.
I may get rid of the USG Civilian in Mallard. I like the case, but it adds a touch more bulk and weight than I personally prefer. I am generally pretty careful with my phones, so the drop protection that some of these other thinner style cases do offer should generally be enough in my use cases.

Do you have any pics of the thin fit in navy blue? Thinking of grabbing the deep blue or the mint. Just wondering how the grip is.
Casemates new iridescent snake skin case. I happened to have a matching popsocket. It’s not as iridescent as the website shows it to be.

To those that have the Tech21 Evo Check, where would you rank that on your list of cases? I thought I was done looking for cases because of my Apple leather case. However, I'm still not liking that the stainless steel is exposed around the screen. I would switch to the Sheath, but the lightning port cutout is too sharp and it hurts my pinky, especially since I've been using the Apple leather for so long. I've been circling back through this thread and making notes of cases that had good feedback from the community. The Tech21 Evo Check had a good run through this thread for a while, but I noticed people stopped recommending it.
As much flack as I give the Mous case it's still one of the best looking cases out there
What ya think?

It is until you touch it and the greasy KFC fingerprints magically show up on the back 🤢
Leather are all banana boats. Ive never had luck with their leather cases and Ive had atleast 7-8 since 11 Pro. I got so fed up i stopped returning them and got rid on eBay.
Shame they stopped doing Contour series. That black grainy leather was absolutely gorgeous.
