Hell yea! Slap that badboy on lol...it's one helluva tight fitting case. Very impressive

Here is what the frosted looks like with Gen 4 red buttons:

Plus they have a lining on the backs o_O
Wish I hadn't sold all my gen 4 buttons with last years cases. Only have the 1 set of red left :(
You mean the buttons had a lining so it wasn’t metal to metal?

How are the stock gen 5 buttons?
 
Gen 4 Buttons with a nice vinyl coating on the back, Gen 5 raw metal.

These Gen 4 buttons are the Matte ones

Will these buttons work with the gen 5 frosted 15 pro NON max?

 
Phone Rebel has an eBay store and sells some gen 4 buttons.

It's looking that way for sure...just need that damn Bullstrap to come in. This Maverick color has been a long wait lol



Honestly it feels the exact same to me. In fact I like the Rebel better due to the frosted back feel

Does the frosted back has some bite?

I'm not sure. The gen 4 buttons I have here are the Matte ones that have a flat face to them. I'm not sure about the ones that have the milled out face or what ever you would call it. Also not sure about the 15 Pro as I have the max.
 
After putting the Gen 4 red buttons back in the frosted and installing my phone they really don't stick up that much more than the Gen 5, maybe a C-Hair ;)

Tried to get some pictures but I'm only working with an iPad over here for pictures today :(

Don't know if I'm really feeling these red buttons or not, might go back to all black or the ultra orange.
What you guys think?
