I have the same case on order.
How about a very light coat of silicone spray wiped (not sprayed) on the inside of the case (or the outside of the phone) before installing it?
Got a tip for us?

I don't like damage. It's ugly, and rarely represents anything positive.
To me, at the least it implies carelessness, something that could have and should have been prevented.
At the worst, it can disable a device, car, camera and make for an expensive and inconvenient repair.
I take pride in owning and using something for years knowing that I took the best care of it that I could.
A scratch on a phone is permanent, always there, staring one in the face.
I was the same way until recent years when I realized it just doesn't matter that much, at least for phones. I used to switch phones 2-3 times a year and tried to keep them in mint condition, but a small scratch doesn't affect resale value much. And I'm finding myself taking advantage of trade in promos more now anyway, in which case it doesn't matter at all. Selling on places like Swappa has become a hassle.
Now to decide Nomad or UAG. It will likely come down to whatever I can get a discount code for lol.
I say Nomad for the leather and MagSafe, both of which alone would make me pick that case.
Might have to order a Nomad myself, that new English Tan is calling my name 
Just don't like the cutouts on the bottom.

Wonder if Phone Rebel will have the Gen 3 Rebel case out before the iPhone 15 hits the market?
I’m not really a fan of symmetrical cutouts either but they’re not all bad on the Nomad.Might have to order a Nomad myself, that new English Tan is calling my name

The PhoneRebel cases became available a week or so ago. Btw, you can search this thread for any info on specific cases, instead of asking questions every 5 minutes.
Sorry, but this thread’s turning into chatter with unnecessary double-posting & is filling up with so many questions that can be asked in DM…
English Tan I think. Those sport ones are gross with the gloss back. That UAG you have looks great though.
I'd like to know myself. Always wanted one of his cases but the delay is killer. If I can get my hands on a Flex case for the 13 PM I may bite.
they only launched the flex series at phone rebel, Gen 3 hasnt launched yet
The new colors have arrived!
Just tried both. I like each color. I will say compared to my first production run black Caudabe Sheath for my iPhone 13 Pro, these newer units are even better. The fit is even tighter, the buttons are even more responsive, and the texture is even better. I'm ordering a Black and Grey now, to replace the first production run units I have.

You must be in some foreign country because it's not available to us Americans.
I'm not buying the AliExpress version either ?

I received both of these a couple of days ago and I really like them. The blue is definitely my favorite. Fit is perfect, as you said. I’m very happy considering I got them on the 20% off sale as well.
Here’s mine. I forgot to snap it all the way. Too excited to take a picture haha.
