I have to agree with @Hooterville, the Frosted is pretty hard to remove. I also have the synthesis and that one is easier to remove for me, which most agree is a difficult case to remove. But the difficulty comes from trying to remove the PR gently to not scratch off any of the inner frosting.
Got a tip for us?

I noticed that!! 🤣 welcome back & stay out of trouble lool
I’ll try 😉 I thought it was a bit ridiculous to get banned for that, but I’ll try to behave from now on 😂
Do you think both are equally easy to take off the phone comparing the aramid and the frosty?
Just curious, but did you use an exacto knife to cut the slits on your synthesis?
It's amazing how Spigen still makes cases so good for the prices they charge on Amazon. For $20 I am quite impressed with this natty titanium frosted Ultra Hybrid. The color is not ideal when they say natty, but it is more a very light sand/dune color. I do not mind that, as it pairs well with a lot of my gear. Not even worth returning, it's a keeper.
I ordered that a couple of days ago as well. I wanted two cases and these two seem to be the most highly rated on here.
Yes but like someone above mentioned, maybe the "hard to take off" aspect is not trying to scratch up the frosty inside.
Are you in the UK?
I wanted the different coloured buttons and I don't think they are available on Amazon UK which is why I ordered from the Phone Rebel website.
oh yeah true I remember seeing that in the thread a while ago about the frosty getting damaged from people taking their phone out a lot.
I’m in US. The buttons are exclusively sold on PR website, not on Amazon here either
Are you no longer wearing the ultra? Or switching it up a bit with the stainless steel?It's amazing how Spigen still makes cases so good for the prices they charge on Amazon.

Oh
I think PR are an American company so the case is easily available to those in the US. Sadly, if you are in Europe you are going to have to either pay a lot of money for shipping if you want the case in less than 1 week or wait a 2-3 weeks for the case to be delivered if you want to pay less shipping costs.
Same with us in Canada if it isn’t available on Amazon with prime shipping. Which extra buttons did you order?

Nah, just a razer blade, but basically the same, just patient and cut it slow.
The grip is amazing and it’s a slim case too. It’s a nice contrast from my PR case. Slim and protective and then for anytime I need something with more protective, just slap on the PR frosty.
I often don’t find myself in situations where I would need something more protective than the Synthesis. A chest height drop is 99% of the situation I’m in.
Any tips of how to install the Frosty and remove it without damaging the interior frost?
No matter how old, weak or feeble I may be, the Frosty is one hard mother to remove, straight facts.
Is it slippery like the black frosted one?It's amazing how Spigen still makes cases so good for the prices they charge on Amazon.

Swapped out of the Pitaka MagEZ 5 into the Synthesis, and.. I don’t hate it as much as I used to. I’m still not a big fan of the slick plastic feel of the back of the case, and the buttons suck..a lot. But overall it’s not a bad case.
Honestly I’ll probably swap out of it by the end of the day, but it’ll suffice for the gym.

My cousin always goes 110% naked with his iPhone. Makes me envious.
I feel the same way about the slippery plastic feel of the back of the Synthesis. I can’t get over it, so will be exchanging it for the Sheath. The buttons are not horrible and are passable, but could be better.
