At 5 Below I found perfect accessories to keep these cases finger print free!

so i pre ordered the midnight paragon day one and it still hasnt shipped but i have a friend who ordered 2 or 3 days ago already get a shipping notification so i dont know whats going on
 
Absolutely love the color matching! Is that the ember button or the scarlet one? I’m guessing the latter. Chose the ember ones, but from your pics I wish I had gone for the scarlet. Maybe I can change the order since it hasn’t been shipped yet….
These are the ember ones, they are orange and very nice.

O also I forgot to mention the buttons on the Paragon are thicker and slightly more glossy, than on the Sheath. But I think they would look better on the Sheath than on the Paragon. I will change they and take pictures.

That is fantastic! So I made the right choice. I think on the website the ember looks a bit washed out compared to the photo you posted.

That’s another thing I was wondering about. Some reviews mention the fact that the buttons are different for the two cases and that there might be some play if you try to swap them, but I haven’t seen anybody trying to swap the buttons and see if they work in an acceptable way.

Yep Paragon buttons work with the Sheath and look better. The matte buttons of the Sheath look better with the matte sides on the Paragon to me.

Is there any physical difference between the buttons, as Caudabe suggests, or would you
say they are identical? Thanks!
 
After trying the dbrand ghost , spigen liquid air and many others I have reverted back to using the Apple Original silicon case ,
I know it’s probably not the best choice for protection but I love the fit and feel and just prefer it over others .
I tried so many other cases but the silicone case is just unbeatable for me. I just wish they had more color options.

Yes indeed I love it so much that before the iphone17 launches I am going to buy 2 more for my 16 pro max in case they decide to not sell it after The new model out
 
Ruby Red Paragon came in today. Not sure I 100% love it. The attached photos of it, taken from my iPad, make the colors look a lot more vibrant than they actually are. I also find the sheen on the back of the case gives off cheap vibes. Additionally, as others have mentioned, the lip of the case is minimal so my screen protector (FloLab) is going to catch the grunt of any front facing fall though it may very well be the DBrand skin I have on causing it.
