i contacted them the other day to check if flolab works with the sheath. they don't know but flolab says it does. so i took a chance on the caudabe. i also asked about other colors because i too like the ocean blue. they said new colors will be added shortly but didnt specify. however ultraviolet will not be returning.
I just tried the nanoarmour edge to edge with the sheath on my 13 pro and i got bubbling under the bottom left corner. It might be my installation wasn’t quite perfect and that caused extra pressure in that area. On a side note, i did also try the flolab with my mous limitless 4.0 case and that didn't cause any issues.
Does great. The MagSafe pop socket uses really strong magnets and does good with cases with pretty weak magnets even. But the sheath has good magnets as well.
They touch each other and it might vary on tolerance of your installation and production.
I have the ESR armorite being delivered today. The coverage looks like it should work, but hopefully the gap isn’t too big.
let us know how it fits with the sheath. the esr was my backup choice but im not sure if the armorite is larger than their standard protector.
Fitment is great, almost perfect. There’s a slight gap but when you press hard on the side of the case, it barely touches the screen protector. It doesn’t lift up the screen protector when I do that.
Are all the Caudabe cases like this? Have you found anything similarly slim that doesn’t do this?
I’m pretty sure the Symmetry is like this as well. I’ve realised why they do it. It’s to strengthen the case around the lightning port and speakers. In all honesty, after going round in circles trying slim cases by Apple, Spigen, Mous and Caudabe, I’ve ended up back with the Apple leather case. The corners can pop out but other than that it ticks all the boxes I want: buttons fully covered, microfiber lining, thin, magsafe, precise speaker cut outs, comfortable when resting on little finger. It also doesnt create an imbalance with the speakers which can happen if the case is slightly thicker. For example, i found with the Mous Limitless 4.0 the speaker at the top (by Face ID) sounded more pronounced than the lower speakers creating stereo imbalance. It’s because sound from the lowers speakers is getting “funneled” by the speaker cut outs which are quite deep.
You mentioned that you've already tried Spigen. Have you checked out their Thin Fit? If you haven't, I think you'd like it. That's the case I'm currently using (after trying the Apple leather and the Caudabe Sheath). I mentioned this in another thread, but it's like a greatest hits of cases: It's slim, lightweight, and has very nice buttons like the Apple leather case; it has a soft silicone-like and grippy feel like the Apple silicone case; and it wraps and hugs the phone like the Caudabe Sheath. It also has nice drop protection.
