Return or not, I get no response from Caudabe o_O I may be on their 💩 list, but they are still sitting on my money and shipping no product :(

Absolute Clown Show going on over there 🤡🤡
It sounds like it’s time to threaten a chargeback. I always hate to play that card, but when you’re getting ghosted it often gets things moving.
 
You're talking about Caudabe, right? They still don't have old orders out??

Where in the world are you located?
They're shipping them from Ohio in the US and it can take as little as a day or two to deliver once shipped.
I know for some places they're delivering from China, and I'm guessing they had some issues getting those out.

I ordered my Sheath on Oct 4th and it was shipped less than two weeks later.

I ordered multiple cases (Blue and Black) and requested a return of one. I've already received 2 emails from support (one saying they will be mailing out replacement buttons, and another email with a pre-paid shipping label to return the unwanted case). They've been pretty responsive in interacting with me.



I kinda feel like the Sheath is a bit thick & dense. But that's the point, isn't it? It's as slim as they can make it while still having some crazy-high claim of drop protection (15 feet? really?).

It's not as bulky as some other cases, though (such as the Beats Rugged or Speck Presidio2 Grip, for example).

Maybe later I can break out a scale and weigh some of my cases.

"Hand feel", button feel, grippiness, and protection are the primary things I look for in a case. If anything, the rough edges of the seams on the back of the Caudabe Sheath are the only thing I don't like about its feel, not any perceived bulkiness.
Yep, Caudabe still does not have out orders that were suppose to ship in Sept. It's the 17PM Paragon precise cases that are nowhere to be found. I'm in the US.
 
Mine was suppose to ship mid October to late October. Got changed to late October.
No updates, notthing. And stil not shipped🫢

Tinee Owl and Rebel Air in this morning.

Tinee is not good. I know it’s under $20, but the fit is not remotely like my 16 pro max version was. Being returned.

Rebel Air is a different story. Very impressed for a $20 piece of plastic. Fit is top notch, magnets are good, the only bit that’s mediocre are the buttons. Greatly impressed and keeping it.
Yeah I’m loving my Air 2… been rocking it since I got it a week or so ago. Initially the buttons are stiff like you said, but they break in with use! Great case all around, especially for the price point!

The Sheath weight is probably from the
Proprietary ShockLite™ and polycarbonate blend
 
That’s heartbreaking bud. I hope its not that bad.

You got AC+ ? Or you going full commando mode ?
Nah I don’t have AC+

I did consider taking it out and then claiming on it. That’ll still cost me the best part of £90. I’ll just take a hit on the resale valve if it comes to it.

What White Case can you recommend ? (Would be nice if it’s leather) because I heard that the MOFT does not fit properly (too tight)
 
… wait a minute? You ordered it, paid for it AND they’re sending it all in the same sentence?

Caudabe, take notes.
Ordered Wednesday afternoon and got the shipped notification about 24 hours later. Tracking just says shipping information received so it's probably just allocation of tracking number and hasn't left their warehouse.
 
Has anyone tried the Spigen Enzo Aramid T on a 17 PM? It has good reviews, however I'm concerned about the metal frame around the opening causing damage to the antenna plateau.

I'm also considering a Mous Limitless, as it has a similar design, but with a plastic opening around the plateau.
