Wound up picking up the spigen rugged armor in gray and it’s honestly one of the best fitting, fraction of the price of the sheath cases I’ve come across. Even the sandpaper grip is super close for $17bucks it’s a no brainer. This thread comes in clutch so many times!
Got a tip for us?

It’s a dang good piece for the money! Agree! I like the side cats tongue friction lol. Not too little; not too much!
And no complaining about shipping times etc or else @Spocky will tell you to bore off 🫣.
I will just wait till it arrives. Since my phone is in a tech woven case.
I have to say something here because I’ve seen this mentality posted before. This is the incorrect approach.
This is the correct approach.

Agree there is a Caudabe thread to discuss their shipping and delays.I have to say something here because I’ve seen this mentality posted before. This is the incorrect approach.

But they should just advertise all their cases as preorder until they can actually ship according to the indicated times.
Telling customers hey you should not have ordered and our shipping times don’t mean anything is really poor customer service.
I mean that’s fine, anything I say in here anyways people aren’t going to like because all of you think I’m a paid shill 😂😂😂. But it’s wild because all this bad talk about Caudabe and everyone will still buy the cases anyways. If you don’t want to support them then don’t buy and cop a different case, tons of great options out there. Complaining to the moon and back isn’t going to speed anything up.
The point is, why bother ordering when you know that they have massive massive issues?
Common sense needed IMO. Just don’t bother.
Don’t bother given them your money.

Anyone got good cases that feel premium and cover the camera plateau?
Caudabe is a no-go this year it seems.

short review of the air bumper. great protection for the sides and screen. no protection for the plateau. i read or saw a review saying the buttons were mushy. i disagree, the buttons are great. they are very clicky, perfect. it is slick but so light. it’s almost like going caseless. i used it for 3 days and today went back to the clear shadow case but already miss it.

Accidentally ordered 2 Arc cases and it’s been nothing but a disaster trying to return one of them. The company doesn’t responds to emails or anything.

I gave up on the Sheath when they went magsafe, too heavy and MagSafe hump, and too much $$ for what they are.
Not sure now but back then the case came away from sides easily.
Also shipping to Australia even if in stock was 2-3 weeks.
Don't they just mass produce them in China what's the hold up?

ESR clear case with camera control button. No real lip on this case in terms of screen protection. That’s fine since I use a glass screen protector. White Dbrand skin, first time installing and I didn’t do the best job. Oh well. Love the bright white phone with the orange Apple wallet. Buttons on the case are okay, no issues but loose the clickey ness.

@Hooterville applied the skin on the plateau silver 17pro. Went ok, having silver iPhone more difficult to line up. But having a dark color iPhone would be easier . I didn’t install the back.
I’ll try to upload a pic.

How do you like the case?iPhone 17 Pro Max with Arc Case and Green Apple wallet.

It’s ok, I don’t know if it’s actually worth $100 though. I do feel like it adds a little more weight to the phone. But that could just be me.
Nonetheless I’m not only returning the extra one I received, but I’m also considering returning the one I was going to keep as well. That is if they ever respond back to me.
They are pricey for sure.
The Arc Pulse is actually very light, like under 20 grams total for many models, which is around half of what most cases weigh. For context, the Apple Silicone weighs around 35 grams and the Caudabe cases are around 50.
I had good customer service from them earlier this year in the off season, but like a lot of small companies their customer service desk is probably swamped right now with the new phone rush. I suspect you’ll eventually get your refund.
