I hope they send you updated buttons free of charge.Guess we will have to purchase the updated buttons to get the coating on the back. They did the same thing last year with the Gen 4. Buttons were raw metal and after everyone complained they added a sticker to back of the buttons.
Think I'll send an email and ask for buttons with a protective coating on the back.
Stick to old trusted lady OT Symmetry LoL.
Will never let you down.
My Black Symmetry arrive tomorrow lol
Yeah. Its available on Amazon US only. Going to wait for prices to drop as advised by yourself and then order.You are going to need the Tree case to go with it.
I hope they send you updated buttons free of charge.
Nomad Rugged you were running last year.Just sent them an email and will see if they respond.
Ahh you got yours today huh? This could certainly be trouble. Now I kind of wish I did not order it.It sure doesn't look like there is any coating on the back of the buttons or that huge metal Rebel logo that will be rubbing on the back of your phone On a better note, the side grips are fantastic.

Why do you hate on Phone Rebel so much? Let people enjoy whatever case they want. It isn't that hard to put something on the back of the buttons if you are that worried about them scratching your phone. I agree you shouldn't have to, but it really isn't a hard issue to solve.Oh Man that sucks.
I bet you all were ready to make love to your devices in Phone Rebel case.
I know this might offend many on here.
We all know design of Phone Rebel is a copy of Pitaka Magcase for XS.
I guess whatever Pitaka does Phone Rebel copies it.
Pitaka released bare metal buttons this year Phone Rebel did the same lol.
Where abouts are you based? Just wondered about shipping times etc: I ordered on Monday, it’s day 5 and I’ve had no order updates or anything yet. I suspect demand is high, but was just hoping to have heard something by now.Just received the Decoded Leather case in Black.
Oh man, I love it.
Feels so much better than the FW and even better than the Apple leather case of my 13PM ...
All BS aside Phone Rebel Gen 5 is a fantastic case. The fit is tight, super duper grip, perfect clicky buttons, rough texture aramid fiber on the back, feels great in the hand, real strong MagSafe magnets and IMO just looks great. The metal buttons and Rebel logo do need some kind of protective backing and the USB-C opening is kind of small. No, I will not be using this case until the buttons with a protective backing are available in who knows how many months from now. Here are some pics:

Its a forum every one got their opinion including me. Few days ago members were slagging Caudabe for being poor and so on.Why do you hate on Phone Rebel so much?

That is a nice shade of Orange. Rich and dark.Last years Gen 4 buttons after they added some protective backing to the buttons.

It's actually red, I have no good lighting over here.That is a nice shade of Orange. Rich and dark.
To each their own I guess. If every single member here complained about every single case they don't like, then this thread would probably be over 2000 pages long. I just don't think it is very constructive or helpful.Its a forum every one got their opinion including me. Few days ago members were slagging Caudabe for being poor and so on.
Its a forum not a kindergarten where everything said becomes an issue of hate or dislike lol.
Members can buy and enjoy whatever they want and desire no body including me is stopping them.
Everyone here is allowed to freely express their views within the forum rules.
To me that case looks ugly but for @Hooterville it is one sexy case.
Which is absolutely fine lol.
There are numerous members on here who are hating trashing Finewoven cases but I like that case.
So there is no hate just you are thinking that way lol.
