Nope.

Benks Armopro is the perfect case. It’s built for all occasions. I think im going to run it daily now

Glad to hear that!
Shame for me I don’t have luck with Armor Pro and Aurora, both have some defects…
On Aurora parts of the frame are visible and on the bottom you can see between the frame and usb c cutout. On Armor Pro, speaker cutout is not centered and also screen lip above it is lowered way to much compared to the corners.

My first armor pro without the button had no issues tho.

Benks replied this and offered 50% on the new case which is nonsense for me to risk to get the new case possibly again with defects..
The slightly visible phone frame and minor imprecision around the USB-C and speaker cutouts stem from the TPU border material, which can sometimes exhibit small variances during molding. These small inconsistencies are a known limitation of the TPU design and unfortunately can’t be fully eliminated at this time.

We have all been spanked and need be on our best behavior ;)

Yea, fingerprints on the Gen 6 are really a deal breaker for me.

I’ve been happy with the Benks Prestige so far. Really nice all-around case. Not too thick, not too thin, relatively light, good fit and protection, fingerprints aren’t bad, looks pretty good, great buttons (including CC), comfortable in the hand, nothing to complain about really (which is a bit of a miracle considering how it’s gone this year… lol).

Yeah same here with my Aurora. Its just perfect.

Ill probably use Onyx now and then.

Ive already given my GOAT cases away. Yes Apple Silicone case remains the daddy of all CC button cases.

Anyone know if the Paragon shows a MagSafe indent like the Sheath tends to do? I ordered the Black one but have never had a paragon because the colors they had until now did not interest me at all.

The Paragon has a hard shell back and will not show the Magsafe indent like the Sheath does. It will show smudges of the Magsafe ring but they wipe off easily.

if you like leather cases, i have to say the andar aspen is a perfect case. even fit all around, slight lip for lay on table, great buttons, strong magsafe, great leather smell, … i like how the buttons look also, they have a matte texture. as perfect as i remember apple’s leather cases. why is leather not considered environmentally friendly?

I know probably off topic but I wanted to share this tid bit from Benks. Idk if this also applies to other case companies that ship directly from Asia but I had asked if tariffs would affect shipping or taxes in any way. This was their response:

I just received my Caudabe sheath (cutout version) for my 16PM and, wow, I finally get the Caudabe hype! Celestial blue is such a nice color

Man I genuinely like this case a lot but the only thing I'm not liking is the weight... Compared to my apple silicone case, this case is noticeably heavier. I'm really debating on returning it and sticking with my silicone case as I do love the apple silicone case and how thin it is. However, I do love the feel and the color of the sheath so I’m unsure… Decisions decisions
