Wow these ones looks cool, I suppose that the silver one will be a nice match for natural titanium.

Caudabe is pulling the same crap with me. On their website the say their are "Super Easy", and you "simply" send then an email for a return/refund. Just like getting their case this year (slow email, multiple backorders), doing a return is not hassle free. If you want to do a return expect multiple rounds of email.

In my return request email, I even wrote that wasn't interested in different colors or case models. So they said I could exchange for screen protectors or cables. They are determined to make you email them a few times to get a return done, and they hope that you'll just go away. again, not "Super Easy", and not "Simple"

Dealing with Caudabe has not been a pleasant experience this year. In fact it's been a lot of unnecessary hassle.

Yeah, they do try to sway you against a return. After my second email to them, they did send me a return QR & so I’ll be returning it this weekend at local UPS.

It’s been on amazon for several days now, but only in “midnight indigo”. Had it a few days and it’s decent. A bit slippery at first if your hands are very dry, but develops a bit more grip after some use. Main cons are that it’s a pretty slim case, but still on the heavy side at nearly 40g for the regular 15 Pro. Also, the front lip, while decently protective, is kind of sharp and interferes with swipes.

How’s the fingerprints on it?
 
Like to hear feedback about Spigen. They have a nice lineup and prices seem pretty good. Thanks!

Yes, Caudabe needs to change their website write-up about returns...

Current Statement: Super Easy returns, simply send us an email.
More Accurate Statement: Returns begrudgingly accepted after several emails trying to dissuade you.

They aren’t too bad considering I got the darkest color by far. Here’s a few pics without doing any wipedown. I imagine it would be even better on the lighter colors.

Edit: added one after a quick wipedown.

Compared to the smudgefest that is the Torras ShieldMate, the Spigen is quite good. The style armor is more of the type where fingerprints show and then kind of disappear on their own after a second or 2.

Looks nice! I have the Enzo and love the fit & MagSafe strength. Would you say the magnet is good? Is the fit tight?

The fit is very tight everywhere, except where the volume and power buttons are. But even there it snaps back pretty well. I haven’t had a chance to test out the MagSafe strength but according to several others, it’s supposed to be much improved this year. I’ll report back if I find otherwise.

Nice. I just ordered the same one off Amazon. Will report back on it.

Nice, I don't think these cases would look so nice on the black phone?

Here's the pic. The graphic shows up OK in bright light but sort of disappears in lower light. I really don't like the case though. The glossy plastic sides are sticky, reminds me of a toddlers toy or Tupperware knockoff. It also fits loose and the sides are stretchy. Going back already. :confused:

Just received the Benks Armor.....power/side button doesn't function. It seems that the button on the case sits higher than the actual button on the phone. Shame too because I really like the case.

UPDATE: I read online that there is a plastic cover and some double sided tape on the power button that holds it down. after removing them, power button working now. I think I like the buttons better than the Enzo Aramid case since they stick out a bit more and can be pressed easier.

Concept is cool but I don’t really care to have a city’s map on the back of my phone. And I can totally imagine that feel you’re mentioning, yea definitely a no go.

I was a graphic designer/cartographer before retiring so the map graphic was appealing to me in a fun sort of way. Too bad the case is sub par.

Looks very nice, how's the fit & grip?

Mine's still in Las Vegas waiting to arrive at USPS so no idea when it will arrive.

Fit is exceptional, grip is good, not great. Still a little squared off on the back edges, but the bottom of the case is comfy. My MagSafe wallet stays more secure on this than on the Phone Rebel...I think because of the coating on the Pitaka, because the magnets themselves are not as strong as those on the PR.

The buttons are phenomenal. Probably my favorite of any case I've tried this year. I know some here don't like that it seems to be metal on metal with the buttons, but that doesn't really bother me. I have a feeling this and the PR will be my two main cases.
