How are you liking them? Did you replace the camare ring as well?
Yep I replaced the camera ring and it looks pretty cool. My first choices was the Matte Black and Blue buttons but they were both out of stock so opted for Orange.
I have the White Titanium iPhone 15 Pro Max and I think the Orange buttons and camera ring looks nice.

I like the silicone case it feels very light with the phone. I would have preferred an apple leather case which i usually get but it is nice. Also the colour is great as well in winter blue.

I contacted Phone Rebel regarding the frost wearing off on the bottom corners of my case and they offered me a partial refund of $15. I must say I am disappointed that they didn't offer to replace the case altogether especially since my case is only a couple of days old!

The FW looks nice. Have you tried it?

That’s a bummer! I would want to return it all together, but being that you’re in the UK it might not be the best option since you’d have to pay for return shipping

That sucks. So what are you going to do?

The black has been one of my most used cases and all I did was wipe the smudges away so you can see the condition. I don't see any marks or anything with day to day usage. The other colors I have so no damage as well. If you are worried however, I'd get the white as the white is super clean.

How does the Nomad Sport compare to an Apple silicone case as far as size/shape/weight/hand-feel? (Ignoring the obvious difference in materials, of course.) It looks like a similar fit from photos.

Bummer! Did you order direct from PR or through Amazon?

I have to hand it to Pitaka; with my peeling finish issues, their support was super responsive and helpful. Replacement case was shipped within a few days, virtually no questions asked.

Exactly
I have asked them if I can get a replacement instead of the partial refund and waiting for a reply. Hopefully they will offer me a replacement because as you said, the return shipping costs to send the case back to the US is expensive, plus it takes a long time as well. Last time I sent a Nomad case back to the US from London, it took a couple of weeks for Nomad to receive it.

That’s why they offered you a partial because it would be too expensive to ship you a replacement.
