Sure thing! Let me know how it works. I'm afraid to scratch the back glass since it's metal. This is why I purchased the case back cover rings instead. I also think they sell the white ring sticker adhesive that goes over the metal ring sticker. With a clear case it should look like apples official clear magsafe case.

Just tried on the Phone Rebel Crystal and Rebel series cases on my PM. Great fit, nice and snug. You do have to work a little bit to get them off of the phone, so that's also a plus to me. I like the raised corner edges on the front and back. With a screen protector on, the lip on the sides are still a little bit raised above the screen. The back covers the lenses without the raised corners, so it's even better with them if put on a level surface. The phone also doesn't slide really easy when it is on a table, so that's another plus for me. These are two nice cases and I’m happy with them. I don’t think that they will bump the Nomad off of my phone for a while, though.

Is the tpu firm? Even at the bottom and by the buttons?

Really, I would think he would keep his cases as tight as possible. He claims any tight case regardless of size will disperse the shock after a drop.
Yep and a nice gap at the top showing the shiny edge of the phone 🤢

I can tell you that these do not work inside the Caudabe Sheath or another off-brand thin, clear case. You can tell there is a very weak magnetic connection, but it won’t stick as designed.

Really? Even those small cases? I heard a lot of people had satisfactory results based on youtube and amazon reviews. I am not using this specific one, but the ring magnetic stickers that go on the back of the case. What do you believe has the best strength of the magsafe cases? I'm interested to hear reviews on the Moment magsafe series. Since they designed it for filmmaking gear, I am assuming it's magnets will be as good if not better than Apples'. I would pick it up if not for the Nomadesque bottom cutouts.

Someone on the Magsafe Case thread managed to use the magsafe sticker(the link above) under the skin of his Dbrand grip. However, the Dbrand technically already has a magsafe magnet built in. It's worth a shot.

You know I put my clear Phone Rebel on today and I don’t have that gap. Interesting.

What’s also interesting is my wife’s case is not as slippery as mine. She’s been using hers full time for the past couple of weeks, whereas I only used mine a couple days. But her sides now have more grip somehow compared to when it was new.

Exactly. Just because one case shows the top like that doesn’t mean they all do. Both of mine do not show any of the band around the phone and are nice and snug fitting on all sides.

Who said MOUS customer services were bad! I wanted a return my 4.0 case and they have refunded me in full and allowed me to keep it!
Have you tried the mous limitless 4.0 since? If so, how is it? Is anyone considering purchasing this now that it's on Amazon?

Isnt he the same guy who was mocking Mous cases not so long ago and now his cases look almost identical like Mous lol.
If I remember correctly, he mocked the so-called weak shock dispersion. That was a ten foot drop keep in mind. Also, he laughed at the banana shape. I think The limitless 3.0 crushed the camera module and back from the fall.
