If you only knew how small it truly is

Speaking of Caudabe, really contemplating returning the frost synthesis. Not impressive at all imo, specifically at that price point.

I like mine but only used it for 1 day. Good luck with that return.

Did you finally keep the Mous?

So, which Apple Silicone case color shows least amount of smudges, fingerprints and lint?

I would say neon yellow, orange, purple fog, and terra cotta would probably show the least. That being said, I have midnight and smudges wipe off really easily with a microfiber cloth and it doesn’t get linty anymore (I noticed that usually stops after a bit of time) so if you’re interested in a darker color I wouldn’t let it dissuade you

Prime special just showed up…love this color and the sili is easily in my top 3 so far

How sticky is it?

Yeah, the only hold is Caudabe is terrible to deal with. But this case makes me miss my TW & Cactus

The Air tank case is now stating it will ship in November.

Exactly why I didn't pre order

Might as well make it late December and call it a day

Schpeegen makes the best cases for the money. Get your bang for your buck.

I have always used Spigen cases for my phones. Very good quality. Initially thought to get Ultra Hybrid T but the back is not fully clear. Glad that this year's Ultra Hybrid is having some covering for the camera control button.

Same. I’ll wait until the hit Best Buy.

The lip is 1.85mm from screen to end of case?

the bottom area is lower. It's 1.1mm. It says on the nomad website.

Underneath the house.

Perhaps I’m confused, but doesn’t the “T” indicate the inclusion of a camera control button (T for touch)?

They arent too bad but you can go on ebay and just buy a brand new official leather one.

Hmmm that’s a good suggestion! I’ll check eBay out

First negative response I've seen about that case. If I would have kept the 17 it would be my go to.

Gotta be honest, just not seeing the allure to it. It’s a hard plastic frost case that has decent side grip and a slippery back. Meh

That's one thing I don't like about the 600D aramid on these shells, how sharp they can be on the edges and cutouts. They also feel extremely flimsy compared to 1500D. I remember my first aramid shell was when Pitaka came out with 600D and i broke it taking the case off one hour after I got it. 600D is also harder to manufacture into a case, shows less fingerprints, and lets you make cooler patterns because of how small the weave is, but I would take 1500D over it because it just feels a bit more substantial. Benks and Pitaka have gone in full with 600D sadly. One of the reasons I didn't order the Pitaka was I have one for the Pixel 9 Pro XL and it just feels overly thin and sharp.

Also, is that CC cutout cut in deeper to the rear of the case compared to the Power button cutout?

Yes, 1500D has better pattern, but on Pitaka cases still flimsy. Benks has much better grip.
But with iPhone Air I want as thin case as possible and match my iPhone color, that is why I chosen black/grey.

Yes CC cutout is deeper than power button.

For me it was 💯 no! Too bloated, thick and heavy.

I think the Ghost is way better however it’s not a frosty.

I tried the ghost too. Was an immediate return to Best Buy. Too much dog hair got behind the back.

Looks like its back to my Cactus or Black TW

I believe Otterbox pulled the Cactus along with the Defender pro for some kind of problem. This is what the counter jockey at Best Buy told me when I was trying to find a cactus.

I'm about ready to break out the TechWoven myself.
