The Benks Armor Pro & Spigen Enzo. My two favourite cases, just wish aramid didn't need cleaning so often. A rub with my fingers and swipe across my shirt usually suffices though.
I used the Benks pro for a solid 10 days. Was too slippery for me.

I’m late to the party but I got my Phone Rebel Gen 5 for my 14PM yesterday. Feels great!! It’s really comfortable to hold. Grips on the side were exactly what the case needed, and I like the texture on the back.

I also finally took my Ghost out of the box and put it on after that last email. Also feels great with good grip and it’s not as wide as the Gen5. I had the smallest of scratches after taking off the plastic film but I would have missed it if it weren’t for all the controversy.

There’s also a noticeable difference in magnet strength between the Gen 5 and the Ghost, but not in a bad way. The Ghost does seem to have that right balance between holding on items vs. death grip. My ESR wallet stays on just fine and it stays on my MagSafe stand well so I’m satisfied. With the Gen5 it would have a death grip on both items. Neither is bad, just different.

I like them both so I’m keeping both. I gotta get out of this thread. Lol

Can you post up some photos of your Ghost? Still on the fence on this one.

I was at the Apple store yesterday and was checking out those woven cases.. they have a nice feel to them and are so light... I'm usually pretty good with my cases but with all the reports of people seeing the scuffs and stuff that would annoy me ..
I really like mine. Give it a go, I think the internet hate is way overblown!

very nice. I was debating between onyx and the stone (nat titanium equivalent) but think onyx is cleaner. Its back on pre-order status but I'll order for mid dec eta.

How good does it work if you don't use the sticky adhesive?
