Still great. I had zero fitment or button issues with the black version compared to the grey version. My only complaint is that the action button is the same size and shape as the volume buttons, so it's not immediately identifying which button is which. I've gotten used to it.


The fit is tight but maybe not as super tight like the Sheath or Synthesis. That does make it easier to take off which is nice for me because I switch cases once or twice a week. The material of the Zagg is softer and more flexible than the Sheath so the sides will pull away a little bit if you make a concerted effort to do that.

I prefer the texture of the TPU of the Zagg to the Sheath. It's still rough but due to the softer material it feels better to hold. It reminds me a lot of the texture on the Mous but it doesn't feel plastiky/hard.

The magnet strength is extremely strong. It'll pick up the Nomad Stand One I use on my desk and bedside table.

Did you already post how much the case weighs?

I’m sending back the Mous leather case because 1) I’m getting the bullstrap leather case that feels MUCH better in the leather quality, 2) amazon is having their Black Friday sale, and 3) I’m going to get the aramid fiber case.

for those who have the aramid Mous, can you feel the texture of the aramid on the back, or is it smooth?

I’d happily swap my aramid for your leather, not in or around London are you…big ask but you never know?

Beautiful! Mine is waiting for me at home, but I'm stuck at the office. How are you liking it? Does it feel bulky? Slippery?

My first thought, switching from the Sheath, was the weight difference. Lighter than Sheath. The buttons are nice and clicky. Laying both flat on the table, it’s about the same thickness, but the Symmetry is thicker along the edges. The back is a hard plastic with very slight texture. Sides are a different, softer plastic. Not as grippy as Sheath ofc but not slippery like my clear Alphex. Snappy fit, yet easy to take off. I quite like it!

Sweet, sounds solid! Can't wait to get home and try mine. Hopefully it doesn't feel too bulky for my liking 😝

it is the same pattern, but on the aramid the pattern is more aggressive/raised up and provide more grip. the frost feels like the aramid, but the pattern worn down a little bit.

I just broke down and ordered one as I'm sick of waiting for the buttons/camera rings :(

I think the Aramid (and Crystal) versions have a glossier rubber on the sides? At least they did in the past. The frosted is matte, so it is somewhat different. Of course I am comparing this year's frost to older PR cases so I may be spewing nonsense.

I’m curious, can you feel the grain of the bamboo? Or does it have a smooth finish?

Did you ever get that neon orange Popsocket top?
Can you post a pic of it?
Click to expand...
Got it yesterday, actually. Will get a pic later. It doesn't seem to really match any of my orange cases, sadly, but I'll have to mess around with it more.

Also have the lighter "Sherbert Sunset" or whatever it's called on back-order.
