Anyone had any luck ordering the free holster for the Defender XT pro?
I put in the code for the free holster on Otterbox.com and could see the order under my account but it just vanishes the very next day. I've tried 3 days straight with the same results :( Poop, I don't even want the holster but it's free :rolleyes:
I never even knew that was a thing. I’ll give it a try tomorrow and let you know if it works for me.

Did your case ever come in from Verizon and what are your thoughts about it?
It was suppose to come on Saturday but it’s delayed for Monday , hopefully it’s not a let down.. but in the mean time i have the phone rebel gen4 on and have a dbrand black matte skin coming for the back..I going to use the skin over the carbon fiber to eliminate finger prints ( my cousin did it and it’s amazing)

Has anyone ever actually a Mous case bend a phone? I just got the speckled fabric limitless 5.0 case and I love it but I know in the past people have been worried about the bend. Feels like the case material would be unable to bend the more rigid structure of the iPhone 14 Pro but stranger things have happened.

That’s pretty dope, any chance you can share some pictures of your cousins custom case?! I’m super curious to see!

Absolutely 100% no way. The one phone that had bending issues was the 6 and they fixed that with the 6s. If modern phones can withstand people sitting on them your case isn’t going to do a thing.

Do you have to give that the baby wipe treatment, too? I’ve found the Rebel to be as bad if not worse than the Pitaka with the fingerprints.
Yep, I sure do :rolleyes: I rated the Pitaka MagEZ Pro 3 at the #1 spot for the absolute worst fingerprint problem known to man. The Rebel Gen 4 comes in at #2 followed my the Mous 5.0.
I'm lucky if I can get 24-48 hours using one of these before I'm right back into something else.

Can you use the Gen-3 or Gen-4 buttons with the Crystal Flex Series 14 Series case?

How would you apply the Gen 3, Gen 4 buttons when the Flex has naked sides? You’re using your phone’s actual buttons so no you can’t, unless there’s something I don’t know lol.

The Crystal Flex looks nice but the clear back and the stainless steel sides are all fingerprint magnets that would bother me too much. Can’t wait to see some IRL photos though!

I went ahead and ordered the Rebel Crystal Flex 14 Series case tonight. It’s estimated to arrive 5-8 days. This will be the last case I purchase this year.
It’s January, you’ll buy more this year. 😂

I’ve been waiting for the frosted with MagSafe. I see it’s in stock. I might order it and make it my last case purchase for the month.

Probably the best (silicone) combination with the SB.

I agree on the color combo. I just can't bring myself to grab another silicone case for $50 when I know how it will turn out in a few weeks (at least the last time I tried silicone).

Might order the frosted myself. Never had a frosted phone rebel case. Are the backs prone to scratches?
Last case of the month 🤣🤣

I emailed them to cancel the order and I’ll order the case again separately.

I emailed them 5 minutes ago and they already refunded the money for the buttons. I like their customer service. As for the sides, I have a clear skin on the sides to protect from scratches. As for the fingerprints on the sides, I don’t pay attention to them unless I happen to look, which is rarely.

Never got any scratches apart from when I dropped the phone in the street. Can't really complain about that. The frosted was a lot slipperier than the clear, IME. Again, that's all with the Gen 3 for the 13 Pro.
