What’s your #1 still the Rhino?
Yeah, probably. Though I don’t like how much detritus it collects. I found some water in it when I cleaned it yesterday?!
Same with the Gen 7. Lets in a lot of dust at the top where the frame is a bit loose.

And since no one could tell me how much dust the Caudabe cases let in, I decided to find out myself 😏 Ordered yesterday, got tracking info this morning.

What Caudabe case you get? Open or precise?
 
Black precise Sheath with silver and blush buttons. (going to mix and match)
Yep that’s what I have with silver buttons. I like the stealthy look.

I don’t get much or any dust with the precise Sheath. I usually take my phone out daily and give it a wipe and hardly see any dust.

Is the regular Beats case worth getting?

They are like $13.00 on Amazon now 😳
I have one, absolutely love it aside from it being extremely slippery. The base model does have an open bottom, buttons are awesome along with the fit. Strong magsafe as well. I went ahead and ordered a different color at that price can't beat it, no pun intended.

Annoying that Amazon UK doesn’t have them at this price.

I’d definitely have one for £/$13
 
I tend to agree with this. If the PR Gen 7 had the precise camera cover of the Sheath or Paragon, it would be my absolute perfect case. I love how both the Paragon and Gen 7 feel in the hand.
which would you take between the paragon and gen 7? the gen 7 has the textured back that paragon doesnt and no bottom lip interference when swiping

Ugh, put me on the spot!

The only thing that I slightly deduct from the Gen 7 is how the carbon fiber on the back gets oily from fingerprints. Easy enough to wipe off, but the Paragon doesn't have that issue.

To me, they're really similar to each other. I do love how the Gen 7 only has the raised corners so swiping is easy. But the bottom lip on the Paragon doesn't bother me.

If PR would release a silver camera guard, it would be great. I was able to swap out the buttons for the Gen 6 silver buttons, including the camera control button, so I've got these nice pops of silver around the case.

But to pick one is really hard. I'd probably go with the Paragon simply because I love how the precise version looks around the back.
