Caudabe Synthesis initial impressions after the first few hours of use:
- This is gonna be really slippery when it’s raining and I’m out and about.
- The enlarged camera bump cutout not only looks aesthetically unpleasing, but my left index finger constantly pokes against it while using the phone. Annoying.
- Love the colour, thinness, weight.
- Phone feels a little warmer under use compared to with the Apple Leather.
I agree with one and two, had the synthesis for about a week. Find it to be a little slippery but no falls yet... the feel in hand otherwise makes it my favorite case yet

The hype is real! After years of being a Sheath fan, I personally crown the Synthesis king now. It’s lighter, slimmer and grips on the sides feel amazing to hold. Caudabe killed it with this one!

I’m back in my black symmetry +. Very fond of the clean look and fit of the case. The only design flaw imo is the odd small cut out at the top. Smartish does the same

I've tried to figure out what that cutout is for, too - I have a Defender and a Commuter case for my 14PM and both have that small cutout at the top front.

I returned the two Caudabe cases I got. I just didn’t like them. I think I will try the sheath though. In other news, my black and brown nomad folios arrived yesterday. Record time of two days from Hong Kong once they shipped. Very nice case and now I just need to figure out which color I want to keep and which I will send back.
 
Type in ‘borderless case’ on Alibaba .

Thank you for bringing this type of case up. I hadn't even realized they existed. I've been looking for a thing, clear, magsafe, minimal case forever -- had settled on a Peel case, but it has these terrible seams at the bottom corners, and the buttons ended up recessed/hard to use. M 14 PM ended up feeling bulky still. I ordered a frameless, clear magsafe case off Amazon, and am thrilled with it.

Hoping they release this for the 14 plus.

But knowing my luck they’ll release it as few months before the 15 is released at which point I won’t buy it because I upgrade every year.

"small cut out"?
Do you mean the cut out for the speaker?
If it is, why is it a design flaw?

Made a little test. Oh man, the thin and light cases make a huge difference in every day life! I can’t turn back to bulky ones now.
