I had a drop with my phone on my cement tiled driveway. Phone is fine but the PR Gen 4 has a war wound as a result.

The buttons are very responsive but rattle a little. Not something I’m worried about but I think I read somewhere here that there was a bad batch of Mous and some returned for a replacement?

You think it is any better than the Caudabe.

Which by the way, I am liking a LOT! Good grip and feel in hand. My only concern would be since there is no felt lining or anything on the inside, are scratches a concern by chance?

Happy Thanksgiving!
The Mous leather is my favorite right now. The other backs look cooler but the leather is more comfortable and grippy. Current buttons don’t rattle when the phone is in the case

That leather does look nice. Assume it is not real leather though correct? No worries if so as I have Apple leather case and a Ryan London.

What do you all think about the Nomad Folio case? I have been looking for a good folio case. I have tried a couple of the cheaper ones from Amazon and have quickly returned them because in that case, you get what you pay for.

$19.00 Fat Boys in from WallyWorld today. They are FAT and have the same fantastic grip as past Defender Pro cases. I did notice the outside silicone is much thinner and cheaper feeling this year :confused: Got one Rain Check blue and one black. Used the black interior shell with the blue and I like it. Here are a couple pics:

Caudabe sheath amethyst came in the mail from the 30% off Black Friday sale. Ordered last Sunday and got it in the mail today so shipping was very fast despite the holiday. I can say the color matches the deep purple perfectly; identical match. Much better than the steel blue which I sent back cause it didn’t match at all with deep purple. Here are some pics

Compared with apple’s ink

Couldn’t get just one Caudabe. 4th case total

They look very nice. One question: what is your camera protector?

Thought about trying the Synthesis, but not sure how it’ll age for me. I‘ve been getting sand in my pockets at work, and my Gripzilla has been holding up like a champ, and it’s cheap enough to replace whenever needed.

I’m so on the fence about ordering the defender. I always use it for a few weeks and then it sits in my case closet.
IMO, for $19.00 it's worth it. The quality of the outer silicone had definitely gone downhill though.
Much thinner and cheap feeling. Even the horizontal lines look kind of saggy and not straight.

Here's a pic of it next to the Synthesis and you can notice the droopy lines in the middle :(
