Anyone got the Rebel frosted with one of the darker iPhones and could post a pic of the back?

I've got a 15 Pro in Blue and wondering how the back of the frosted looks with a dark phone.
Here's mine which is black titanium:

Would you guys so the Phone Rebel case is better than the Mous Limitless 5.0? Thinking of ordering it but the delivery costs are expensive...
I have both and slightly prefer the Mous. They’re both great cases and have their advantages and disadvantages. Which you will prefer will depend upon your particular priorities and preferences.

I found the Mous slippery. Hoping the frosty is much more grippy.

Did not notice it when I initially unboxed the winter blue silicone, but it has a defect where the case is starting to pull up around the MagSafe ring, I'm thinking Amazon sent me a used case, So it's on its way back to Amazon, and as much as I love the color, I doubt I'll re-order... So, back on the search for a good case, which gets tiring (first world problems, I know)

I got mine directly from Apple with no issues. What do you mean the case is starting to pull around the magsafe ring? Do you mean parts of the case is breaking off?

I've never had quality issues buying Apple products from Amazon until now, which is super frustrating. I should have taken pictures before I returned it, but the silicone around the magsafe was literally starting to drag upwards from the case. Like the case was deforming after taking it off a magsafe charger.
Doubt I'll buy anything Apple related from Amazon after this instance, will buy directly from Apple next time I get anything.

My Clay and Cypress silicone cases that were purchased directly from Apple are perfect.

Oh ok yeah that sounds like it was used or something from Amazon. I always buy direct from Apple just to be sure.

I’ve received two Pitaka cases from Amazon this year that were clearly used. It doesn’t seem to be unique to Apple products.
 
Ooof, that is tempting 🤣 Didn't like the standard Gen 5 because I didn't like the aramid, but that looks nice! Are they swapped out buttons?
Yes, I had the ultra orange in there but went back to the matte black as I believe they look best on the frosted.

Eww. I get a lot of stuff from Amazon since prime is very convenient, and quality is usually good on everything, but when it comes to tech, etc. If it comes at the cost of quality, no thank you.

Amazon is definitely reselling used items. Any item you search for and check the reviews seems to show someone expressing frustration with receiving a used product. I am talking appliances, watches, tech, etc
Yep, the Gripmonk case I received was definitely someone's else's return. It had white chalky finger prints all over the back and the smartish sticker and card were missing. It cleaned up perfect after a wipe down with a wet one but for sure was a returned case I received.
 
Alright frosty, you need to take a nap for a few hours while I enjoy this killer super blue color by Nomad. Completed my Nomad sport trifecta. What a beauty

Nice! My super blue is out for delivery! You probably posted this way back, but how do you like the sport case? Yeah, you have three of them, just curious 😂 How is the form factor and grip? How does the back hold up to fingerprints, scratches and scuffs?

It's in my top 3 hands down. Everything about it I love. The lightweight nature of the case, how its form fitted to the phone where it doesn't make the phone feel wide, the best buttons on the market, and its a MagSafe monster for all my accessories. No scratches or scuffs on any of the colors, but the smudges are there after a few hours. Doesn't bother me because with one simple swipe, it's clean as ever.
