for those looking for a working 35% code for Caudabe, WOW35 will work all week according to their home page...now i have a week to ponder whether i want to consider a synthesis for my XS or not.
[doublepost=1542578387][/doublepost]Best Buy deal on Speck is over... my friend went to look and the prices went back up. i'm glad i got the Presidio Grip for $11.99 while it was available at that price. i'll post some pics of it and a short review when i get it after Thanksgiving. [est. delivery is next weekend]
 
Just curious for Caudabe, on actual Black Friday, does the deal get even better? I’ll probably pull the trigger tonight for a Sheath.
 
So does this mean it’s thicker than the new version of the Symmetry?
Unless someone can confirm the XS version has the removable buttons. All of the Marvel cases for the XS on the Otterbox website show the old thicker version. XR and Max are new designs

Added this silly little thing to my OB Symmetry. Bought my wife a two pack yesterday at Sams and like it, so bought me a leather one today. Like it, a lot as goofy as maybe it looks.

Will be rather sad if the Synthesis stays out of stock during Black Friday let alone Christmas argh
 
The gradient symmetry. I’ve only found it on Best Buy or Otterbox (sold out) so far.

I’ve spent allot of time the last few days at BB and they told me often everything they are doing for Black Friday price wise is active now as of yesterday and the door busters will be a few cheap TVs things like that. So if it’s not on sale now on thier site it won’t change Black Friday FYI individual stores may discount certain items but you’re going to have to go there and check

That helps! Thank you :) I’ll just hold out longer. I got one for my 7+ a while ago at the 40% off at Target so I know they cycle the sales. It’s more of a want anyways!

Thanks for the info... Well, I don't want a thick Symmetry so I pulled the trigger on a Synthesis for my XS.

No problem I hope it helps. I’ve been on two separate raids Saturday and today. That’s how I found out. However if ya find another big box shop with better prices BB will meet it FYI happy hunting I hope you get what you need and happy thanksgiving of course!

Happy Thanksgiving to you as well!!
 
I got a Sheath for ths XS recently. There is a lot to like about the case. Oddly, i find the case to be pretty slippery. I see lots of other folks calling it grippy. In the car, i set it on the armrest console and one time it went flying at a slow stop. Another time it fell off just from the car vibrations during normal highway driving. I also find it slippery in my hand.

I am not disputing others claim that its grippy. Maybe i have a defective case? Maybe its just more slippery than the other cases ive owned lately (totalle shear case, shock-tech clear case, tech21 Evo).

I may have to try Husker’s scuffing it up procedure.

If yer car has leather I'd suggest putting non-slip tape on the back side of yer phone. If it's cloth then scuffing would probably work??

Just lightly scuffing with a wire wheel grinder makes it incredibly grippy. I have an extra Sheath, It's slippery but not as bad as most cases are.

After a couple of weeks, the rough feeling groves smooth out a little actually making it feel better in the hand but still provide great grip.

I would rate the grippyness of a stock Sheath around 60-70%. Apple Silicone 50-60%. Modified Sheath 90-95%.

I didn't scuff the back only the left & right side on the curved part. It was all I needed because of the way I hold cell phones.
 
Do the Otterbox Symmetry like the Vader (the one with the big vader helmet) and R2D2 from Target ones have a shiny, slick back? Debating if I want to get one, but it seems it would be slippery with that back if its hard slick plastic. . May just go for a regular Symmetry.
