iPhone 17/Air/Pro/Pro Max Cases

my black sheath on the 14 pro always had

I noticed this with my Sheaths over the past few years. My theory (it’s just a theory) is that the rough surface acts as a kind of sandpaper that lightly abrades the skin, which builds up over time causing the gray haze.

my black 14 pro sheath was a mess along with crap buttons but this grey sheath is perfect no dirt buildup and perfect everywhere else except for slight misalignment which caudabe said they are sending over a replacement for hopefully its fixed

Torras Q3 air vs q3 spin:
It’s shocking how much good press the air gets and you never hear anything regarding the spin. I personally think the spin is way better. It has a slightly stronger magnet, and it feels much better in the hand. No pointy bottom like the air has that digs into your pinky. The air bubbles do they even do anything?
And it’s half the price of the air.
If the spin had a black plateau cover, I’d cancel my caudabe order right now.
Air vs spin

Got a chance to install the replacement batch that supposedly has better hole alignments, and it’s much better. The lens cutouts are still not 100% centered but much better than the old batch. The bottom speakers are perfectly aligned whereas previously, the speakers were a bit higher up.

I just said F it, might as well just try the full body skin since I paid for it, and if the top peels off, then I’ll just toss it. To my surprise, none of the sides peeled off.

@Sal09 Not sure if you waited a full 24 hrs for the adhesive to cure, but thats what I did. Also, what I did was put the top in first, then pulled the bottom of one of the corners, push the phone in, then pulled the opposite corner and side while simultaneously pushing the corner of the screen down. You can barely tell on the back.

Also, no exposed aluminum on the front. Looks exactly the same as before the skin was installed:

Not sure if the cure time or technique worked, but I’m overall very happy with how it went. Definitely takes a LOT of patience to align the skin before squeegeeing out the water and carefully heating up the edges, while pushing down with your fingers, making sure not to stretch it. 🥵

Just a note for those interested in the full body skins, the sides are not 100% covered due to the curvature of the frame:

Nice work sir.

It’s been one week since I ordered from caudabe but no tracking no email no nothing. And no way to track my order online. How long do they take?

Takes about 5 days all in when I ordered my last 3 cases.

I went to the Quad Lock case for iPhone 17 Pro Max. It’s more convenient for my needs.

I have an indoor trainer bike (wahoo kickr bike) with quad lock mount so this is perfect.

I also got the desk charging stand - it can charge two phones at once.

Short answer: forever.

My experience with them too.

What’s the replacement procedure - do I need to send them back the old case? Mine is also misaligned and the bottom corners are still funky…

Can you use the ultra orange camera ring with that Phone Rebel Gen 7 plateau cover or is the black ring part of the plateau cover?
