Slightly thicker than the cactus and andar but that’s to be expected. MagSafe is strong. Feels good in the hand. Reminds me of the phonerebel frosted but a little thicker. Honestly not bad of a case. Will probably give it to my wife when her 17 pro max comes in. She used the frosty all last year and liked it. She should like this synthesis too.

Caudabe just isn’t what it used to be!

They’re making you practice patience to end up letting you down what a shame!

Hopefully the Sheath and Paragon are the ones to make everyone happy from Caudabe!

It's very bad quality. The instance I received asked for return process. Not forth for $50
 
I really didn’t think I’d have the need for the crossbody strap (especially for $60) but I’m loving it. It’s very functional and it feels premium. Have the tech woven in blue and green and got the tan crossbody strap to match either case. I put a screen protector on the camera plateau. It looks worse in the pictures but adhesive is barely visible in real life.

Reminder: BE CAREFUL removing these super thin cases; I saw carnage on Reddit and WAS being careful and still folded my Benks ArmorAir “backwards” and ruined it. Bad. All bad. Not sure I blame Benks; not sure how it could literally be reinforced but…

This is the weak point of all ultra thin fibre cases this year.

There’s not enough rigidity across the width of the phone because of the camera plateau

In past years they were already super tight and very difficult to take off.

Bummer, but not surprised. Seen this already with other types of cases too. Mous specifically addressed this by running a polycarbonate frame around the circumference of the plateau.

I was trying to purchase a Defender Pro case at the Verizon. When they scanned the SKU it showed up as not in stock. The manager went and checked on their internal slack channel and showed me that all Otterbox cases for the 17 Pro and Pro Max and regular 17 are being pulled from stores because they are deemed to be defective.

Does Caudabe charge for return shipping?

I received Synthesis Frost for 17 pro. Nice case, but it is thick (depth wise) and flatter all around when compared to dbrand ghost. 17 pro ghost not much thicker than 15 pro ghost. 17 pro Synthesis Frost much thicker than 15 pro Synthesis Eucalyptus.
