For you maybe, I see no issues with removing the case. The only case that was impossible was the MagEZ 4.
Ehh not too bad. Not the best grip but it’s one helluva case for $20
100% agree. Will probably switch into the Sheath by the end of the day as it is a much better case IMO, but I can see why @thatappleguytoday put the synthesis in his top 5, it’s a pretty good case, but I personally prefer the Sheath more.
Yep. Sheath > Synthesis; c ring controversy aside.
I agree. Everyone will have different opinions about the MagSafe indentation, and that’s okay.
To me the Sheath feels like I’m holding an egg carton all day long. Can’t stand the feel of the Sheath.
Love reading and seeing everyone’s perspectives about cases. Some love, some don’t.
How did you come up the egg carton assessment? I have limited experience with the Sheath (handled a family member’s for a short period of time), but I don’t see it, at all.
Yeah, we all seem to have different prospectives about cases. That’s one reason why I am here. And it makes for very interesting reading and trolling 😂
Does anyone use the caseology parallax on their phone? Thinking about grabbing one since it looks like they have a blue now.
Apparently you can’t use that code with other codes. They have a code for 20 off of the buttons or the free ultra buttons but it doesn’t work with more than one code lol.

2nd Nomad Modern arriving today. Will see if it knocks out the symmetry and FW.
Won't be mentioning the Shiith anymore or responding to nastiness for being called the T word.
This thread for the 14 was great, none of that, shame a few have crept in and ruined it because their beloved case has been critiqued.

@thatappleguytoday sorry for all the questions but do you buy all your component separately at phonerebel? Or do you buy the full kits as i see in some of your pics you have black buttons on the frosty and sometimes the ultra colour buttons and also i see the camara ring is matte black as well.
That nomad is the one case I’m trying to resist…
All good…I bought frosty, matte black, matte silver, and natural titanium components direct from PR. The aramid gen5 from Amazon.
Oh ok did you always buy the full kits for all the different style of the components Or separate components like one matte camera ring and then separate buttons? What is your favourite compenent kit so far? is your ultra buttons from a previous model?
I bought full kits for matte black and silver and just the ultra orange buttons only as i didn’t want the orange camera ring.
Honestly I like frosty with the matte black camera ring to match the black MagSafe ring with the orange buttons that creates a nice contrast
At least Nomad has listened to the complaints, buttons are excellent, the sides/bottom are softer feels closer to silicone.
Good firm fit all around.
Size wise it's imbetween the symmetry and the FW cases I have.
The black looks good with the Nat blue max too.
Think I am done now.
Yeah that combo of yours for the frosty looks good. Looking forward to see what the titanium kit looks like on the cases.
during the warmer months and some times during the winter I do a lot outside where I know I need to be more protective with my phone and I know I need something morE rugged.
A symmetry on sale is your friend, just did 2 weeks around Bali, was the perfect case.
Still loving the frosty, but it is definitely showing some wear. I am super careful, and yet, it begins to melt haha.
The one in the MagSafe ring I have no clue how that happened, probably by sharing a pocket with some pliers while crawling through an attic on my stomach. I am hard on my phones, even smashed the screen protector somewhere in that attic. The camera ring is also getting quite chipped.
The synthesis seemed to hold up better overall, but I just love this frosty so much more. Just adding character I guess. I need to order the aramid version soon.
As far as the ease of removal question, it is a tight fit, but I think it is about the same as the synthesis to get off. Just got to be careful putting it back on to not make it melt faster.

How's the outside frost holding up? Only the inside is melting?
I believe everyone's inside frost will melt sooner or later
This might be a stupid question but how is the frost melting on the cases? Is it just from being used? So at some point the case will just be clear?How's the outside frost holding up? Only the inside is melting?

Just means the frost is coming off.
My Frosty lost frost on the inside corners after installing and removing the case a few times.
Have a replacement Frosty on the way now.
Last years Frosty for the 14PM did not have these problems.
