Initial impressions good. Fits and feels solid in hand. Rather light oddly. I don’t like camera button but I’d be fine without it entirely lol. So far this is a top 5-6.

I have this coming from AliExpress; my hopes aren’t high.

Hi there,

We’re reaching out because you ordered the Open cutout version of either the Sheath or Paragon. We’re experiencing a slight manufacturing delay for the Open cutout versions, and our ship dates have been pushed back a bit. We currently expect to begin shipping these in early to mid November.

If you’d like to continue waiting, you don’t have to do anything at all! We truly appreciate your support and are working hard to get orders out to customers as quickly as possible.

If you’d prefer to switch to the Precise cutout version, that’ll speed up how soon you receive your case. The Precise cutout versions are being produced in larger quantities due to higher demand, so you’ll be able to get one more quickly. Please reach out to us at support@caudabe.com to make the request and we’ll update your order. You can also cancel if you’d prefer, and we’ll take care of that right away.

This is a no-reply email, so please email support@caudabe.com rather than replying here.While our Support team is currently handling a high volume of messages, they’ll absolutely get back to you as soon as they can. It may take a little longer than usual, but please hang tight and they’ll take care of you.

We apologize for the delay and can’t wait for you to receive your order. Thanks again for your patience and support.

Team Caudabe

I am thinking of switching to the precise one from the open Sheath for my 17PM. Should I try to ask for a free set of buttons as a compensation?

I’m impatiently waiting for anybody to do drop tests with all of these cases 😂 My phone is back in the Beats Rugged after I panicked yesterday when the phone took a little 20cm tumble off my chair in the Spigen Rugged 😂 Of course nothing happened to case or phone, but the Beats case still feels superior when it comes to protection. I hope someone drop tests it in the future. I have to say the more I use it, the more I like it. Sure, it adds bulk but it’s still minimalist enough to not look bulky. And it feels great. It has some minor alignment issues on the bottom though, like the Silicone. And the Spigen too, for that matter. Maybe my phone is just a little wonky 😂 With the beats case it’s a little unfortunate because the speaker/microphone holes are individual holes. Guess I’m just unlucky with the case fits this year.

When I tried the Beats rugged felt slippery even with the dot grip.

My Sheath arrives!

So my partial order turned out to be the buttons AND the case!!
No idea why it still says partial order but I'm pleasantly surprised.

Love the feel, love the look though they should have made another colour button set to match the Cosmic Orange. Minor niggle.
Also the speaker/mic holes aren't centre to the cut cutouts and the USB-C cutout is bigger than I'd like. It goes past the screws either side. I have a plug in there but still, too large. Especially as I very rarely use the port.

The rattle...
It's there. I put tape on them but found the rattle still there. The tape closes the gap between button and phone but there is too much tolerance around the buttons that lets them move in all directions. This also ca cause them to not look uniformly straight.

I'll have a go at putting tape across the buttons with an overlap attaching them to the case and see if that sorts it, but why am I having to do this?!
Are the replacement buttons thicker to stop lateral rattle or just so they fit snugger to the phone? If the latter it won't fix the sideways movement.

Ok, so the cure is to put a piece of clear tape (sellotape in UK) across the buttons and overlapping so that the tape is also attached to the case. That stops the wiggle and rattle. 👍🏻
