Let me start off by saying that, like a lot of people, the Caudabe Sheath was my “glass slipper” phone case for my iPhone 13 Pro Max last year. So when I ordered it this year for my 14 pro I was a bit disappointed when I wasn’t as much of a fan. I’ll attach a picture but the glossy lines looked choppy this year. So I sent a picture of it to Caudabe and they said they were sending me another because mine is defective. No questions asked they sent me another one… to say I am impressed by their customer service is an understatement. They really stand behind their products and it shows! I just wanted y’all to know!

Was taking my Phone Rebel Frosted off and the haunting problem strikes again, bottom magnet fell right out of the case. I guess the MagSafe issue isn’t fixed after all for the frosted version cases for Phone Rebel.
Well that sucks. I love this case but it is so damn slippery.

What's ur favorite case at the moment?

Mannnnn that’s so tough and I keep bouncing around a few. I still use the Phone Rebel Kevlar, right now I’ve been using the Andar Aspen leather case and I run the Mous Limitless 5.0 also. Synthesis is in the rotation also. I’ve really been trying to swap out using a different case every week or so to see how I really like using it.

Which Andar Aspen color have you been using and how has it held up?? I’m thinking of getting one. Love your reviews, btw!

That Element case you just reviewed is OD… $250 beans, holy moly. I’ve been waiting for a new vid to drop, glad to see you’re back in action 🫡

How about the MagSafe UAG pathfinder in white…. Stormtrooper vibes…. @Hooterville has some pics if you look at his “media” on his profile
Took at look at it, and its a bit too "tacticool" for me. Looking for something a bit sleeker.


I ran across the sport case by Nomad in Lunar Gray, does anyone know how it is? Does it get a lot of fingerprints? How is the grip?

You had me checking mine just now 😂 All ok. I wouldn't buy any other case!

I can see that. I like the pathfinder but not the white one. I was scrolling thru Amazon and saw this…. Idk if it interests you… rhinoshield solidsuit.

Do you have the pro or pro max? I wonder if it’s just a pro size issue, or if that one I had was truly a defect. Guess I’ll find out when the replacement arrives.

Thanks I really appreciate that! I have all the colors but I’ve been rocking with the deeper brown, can’t remember what the official name of it is. It’s been good so far, curious to see how it does in the long run.

I had that Black Ops case for about three days, and I returned it. It was so rough on my hands and it rattled. To me it was a horrible case. It wasn’t even worth $150 let alone $250.

Yeah man that’s just SO STEEP. My cut off is usually around the $60 price point. And I still return that ish if I don’t LOVE it enough to add it to the starting 5 🏀

Yeah, I don’t know what I was thinking, I just wanted to try it out just to see what it was like and found out the hard way that it’s not worth the money. I did get my money back so all in all it was a learning process.

That’s the beauty of Amazon… I love that you can order a case to see it in real life on your phone and if you don’t like it, it’s so easy to return and get a full refund.

I haven’t used an Element case since they stopped making the custom bumpers.

I loved mine for my 5S. It was half white aircraft aluminum and royal blue.

The Popsocket is a year old, I have two of them and both are my cats. the ginger is Schrödinger, and the grey is Isaac Mewton. I really like the custom creator for Popsocket. They stick strong to the MagSafe, you have to really shake it around to get it to let go. I went naked on my Sierra Blue with the Popsocket too and never had an issue. Don’t mind the dirt on the top right side lol. Apparently at some point today I got lip balm on the phone. I blame the painkillers

My hubby snapped a quick pic for me - I’m pretty dopey for oral surgery this morning.
