Ewww! How does it fit and feel otherwise?
As I stated numerous times, Suti did the clear back dirty with the full MagSafe circle.
Got a tip for us?

It feels nice in the hand; its a little thinner than the Matter one; seems a bit lighter as well. It def already has a scratch just from peeling off the plastic that comes on it whereas the Matter one seems to be scratch resistant.
Contact them. They’ll send another. Happened to me last year

The colour is OK, but in retrospect I think I would have been better off getting a different colour. The grey "Stone" colour looks a bit drab against the Cosmic Orange, and is probably better suited to the silver iPhone.
The black case with translucent back looks pretty decent with the Cosmic Orange. It also protects the camera plateau. The translucent panels allow some of the orange to come through, but it's a more muted and darker orange and that pairs well with the black. This colour combination also matches perfectly with the 17 Pro Max's custom "PRO" dynamic black/orange wallpaper. MagSafe strength is very good. However, the case is thinner than my elago silicone case and thus may not protect as well, and the Camera Control button is flush (instead of recessed on the elago) so it's easy to inadvertently press the Camera Control button. I have set the button for double-press in order to activate the camera, but it's still somewhat annoying. The case is also slightly more slippery. Also, besides the Camera Control, the buttons are just extensions of the case instead of actual buttons, and you can see the phone through the button slits underneath. The buttons feel fine in actual usage though.
The Tocol is a decent case and at that price it's a steal, but overall I prefer the elago design. However, given the low prices, I will keep both cases, as I continue my search for a nice but not too expensive bold coloured leather case.

Does your Matter phone back wiggle left and right on the bottom half? The top is super sturdy but the bottom half moves when my palm digs into it. Seems like I got a defective one and the magnet isn't as strong on the lower half portion.
Defective suti and matter phone backs 🙃
Well more like damaged with the white marks around the magsafe ring. I also noticed some more white marks under camera plateau and on the edge of the phoneback.
Ah yeah! You are the first here to receive the Suti (clear). I may be the first here to receive silicone (alpine orange) tomorrow.
What's worst, waiting on Caudabe or Suti
Is Caudabe using an "AI Team" to answer emails before they actually go to a real person?

We love Liz in here.
Nope I decided to kick the 17PM to the curb. Keeping my 16PM and Air. All these case companies are a huge disappointment and the cases I have, I cannot stand the huge plateau cutout. The use of Aluminum is terrible. I prefer the titanium built iPhones. I will be posting cases in the Marketplace soon once my Nomad horween shows up.
Easily one of my favorite cases and looks so clean against the white. On the black Air, you can see fingerprint smudges where on the white, you hardly see them. Love it. Nice and light too.
