I'll be passing on that mess.
It’s pretty slippery. If that’s a concern you may not like it. It’s near perfect in all other aspects: fit, form factor, buttons, camera control.
I’m not a big fan of clear cases in general due to scratching, dust, smudges, yellowing, etc.
How do we feel about this?

I like the concept. I don't like the price.
Do I recall correctly that the Arc caused some damage to your Air at the bottom?
He was trolling; just look at his responses to me when i said arc was damaging the 17 pros
I don’t have exact specs and I returned the Ghost. I also didn’t have them at the same time to compare specs but in hand the Ghost definitely felt wider, the paragon has a tighter more form fitting form.
BOLO TJ Maxx and Ross starting to get 17 cases. Not one I particularly have interest in this time but FYI:
I think the Ghost is thinner than the Paragon, so it feels wider. I also had both, not at the same time, and I feel like the ghost was "smaller" overall but that the Paragon is more comfortable in hand.
I just got the Sunrise Summa case delivered from Pitaka and it is fantastic.
My black paragon is developing a permanent ring around the MagSafe magnet. This is a design flaw. It doesn’t wipe off.
Serious question: are there any cases that don’t eventually develop a permanent ring due to the friction involved? I can’t think of one…
Which ones specifically? I’d like to have a case that doesn’t eventually show the MagSafe ring.
Their 17 Pro open bottom case fits horribly. The bottom part of the case barely raises over the front of the screen. Huge letdown as they were one of my favorite leather case brands.
Sheath, rebel, pitaka, a bunch of cheapo spigens and rinkgkes. Apple etc.
In my experience, practically all of those eventually show a permanent ring, some after only a few weeks.
