Bargain!

I have a Grey one which I love, ordered a black, just over £14 including delivery (in Dec.).

Cheers

It came today and pretty sure it's a fake.
The frame is a harder TPU and where the TPU meets the hard PC back inside, there's a small lip on my original grey one. Also the back of the faux screw heads are part of the moulded PC back, on my grey they are TPU inset.
The UAG logo inside is upside down compared to original.

Also the MagSafe is weak as hell, it's strong on my grey original.

Ah well, half expected for the price. 🤷‍♂️

Another give away is the packaging. Some obvious differences.

Check PM

If anyone else has a 35% off not being used, I will gladly take it. Thanks.

Same here, no hurry for a Caudabe discount code (before Black Friday), but if anyone else has a 35% off code they’re not using, I’m interested in a PM too please 😬

@ricktat Thank you so much for the code, Sheath & Synthesis ordered

Happy Days.........

I worry about the Phone Rebel ultra-orange buttons scratching my phones actual buttons. They feel pretty sharp on the backside and I'm not sure if there is any coating on the backs or not.

Anyone know if there is a coating on the back of the ultra-orange Phone Rebel buttons?

****After closer inspection there is some kind of coating on the back of the buttons****

No, it's not very soft and the edges are quite sharp.

I have this case and it is wonderful. I just wish the sides didn’t have that much give, and I wish they would have used stronger magnets, because it is a beefy case.

Can you recommend a case with solid sides and along the bottom ? I’m trying to find a decent case with no give at all other than Apple cases …

Someone else mentioned that they removed the clear stickers from the black buttons that shipped with the case and stuck the stickers onto the orange buttons for slightly improved feedback. I did the same "out of the box" so I think that should alleviate any concerns.

Are they easy to peel off?

Yes, it was pretty simple...as long as you haven't cut your fingernails in the past couple of days I think you'll not have a problem.

I DIY’d a MagSafe wallet case as I recently lost my wallet and had nowhere to store my cash.

The wallet case in question is one of the numerous $15-$20 cases that show up on Amazon. It originally came with a TPU shell in which you slot the iPhone, but I want to keep a clear shell on mine, and switch the outer case as circumstances dictate.

I know it isn’t pretty. But the actual wallet case I want is currently out of stock, so this will tide me over.

Sorry to go back to the camera protector but do they hold up/stay on well. I read the reviews and the common complaint is that they fall off after just a couple of days because the adhesive is not strong enough.

They stay on just fine until you drop your phone. I dropped my 13PM twice and the protector popped off both times.

Looking good man. I am also looking forward to your Caudabe vs. Mous case review and pics.

The black decoded is faulty, buttons ultra stiff. Blue one is perfect. And good MagSafe

Is there a leather smell to it? Pics?

 

[Pug72]

The black decoded is faulty, buttons ultra stiff....

Try taking case off and forcibly pushing them in and out by manipulating them back and forth with thumb & finger either side of the buttons.

Used to remedy a similar problem with Apple leather cases years back.

Can anyone with a mous clear case tell me if the sides and bottom are tight or is the material weak in those areas ?

Got my Dbrand Grip today, a mere 37 days after ordering, but worth the wait IMO.

A solid fit and insane grip - almost feel it'll be impossible to drop (but I'll manage it). Much smaller side protection/edges than my Symmetry, but the raised top and bottom mean it's enough, and I have a screen protector.

Wasn't going to bother with the skin - Carbon - but definitely looks better than the naked back, and much to my surprise was easy to install. Recommend putting the camera cutout on the phone without the case, it's fiddly.

Very happy with this. Two thumbs up.

I would give the Grip a lot of credit and order another one for my 14PM if the magnets were not absolute trash. With my day to day use of MagSafe products that has really become a huge deciding factor for my daily driver case

Hey guys. Does anyone know some good and not cheap 2-in-1 case(s) with the camera part coverage?

Just don't want to have a separate piece. And at the same time I hate how dust and grease are accumulated inside the camera's shiny part.

how are the magsafe magnets this year? i emailed dbrand a few weeks ago and they said it will have the circular ring and the alignment magnet and that they use the same magnets as apple. i had their case for my 12 pm and the magnet strength was terrible. wonder if it’s any better.
