No they don’t. None of my cases show rings. My paragon i only had it for a few weeks and already there’s a permanent ring mark.
Got a tip for us?

Well that’s your experience, mine has been different.
This isn’t a design flaw.
Electricity + magnets = heat.
If you choose to use MagSafe, you run the risk of marking it because of this. And that’s with any case.
Yes, there is little gap at the bottom, but it's already there, so 🤷♂️
I'm not trolling.
That’s why I don’t I don’t MagSafe to charge. Like you said always run a risk.
The Tank will not show the MagSafe ring but collects a a lot of debris and crap in all the little crevices. The damn case is a MagSafe ring 🤣

Really really like this case. Fits the silver well and looks just so clean. Super tight fit, no gaps anywhere, all buttons are flow through and swappable. And super protective, according to MobileReviewsEh‘s test. Big thumbs up!
With the Sheath… I didn’t know what to expect from the texture, but it does indeed feel like a stone. Not a huge fan, but might grow on me. And the cut outs are not perfectly aligned (the flash is a bit off).
I swapped the buttons for silver (and a blush action button), but I’m not sure I like it. Might swap back to black buttons.

You said the same thing about the 17 pro max 👀
He’s not passing on anything. 😉
My Paragon which I've had since November has the magsafe ring every morning when I take it off the charger. Wipes right off. Not permanent for me.
See I feel just the opposite. Having that gaping dust collecting plateau hole ruins it for me. Looks unfinished and cheap. The precise looks finished and premium to me. All opinions of course.

Arc finally got back to me regarding the issue with the Pro max. The TLDR is they said my phone came like that (which it didn't cause the backside was fully flush) and its an engineering flaw of the pro lineup (which for some it was). As a "gesture of good will" though, they are offering a refund or exchange.
So basically, they're owning up to it, without owning up to it 😂
After many months of cancelled orders and delays, Gray Open Sheath is finally here. Apologies for the poor lighting.
Tried a Mujjo leather case for 17 pro max, really nice finish
That definitely looks better than the precise Sheath in my opinion. I’m totally loving my open Paragon it’s winning me over my precise version.
I wonder what the weight difference is between precise and open Sheath? On the paragon it’s 4g so assuming about the same.
Not surprised. They were never going to admit fault and start replacing phones, which would almost certainly result in bankruptcy.
I have one coming in tomorrow for the Pro with the strap just for funsies. Glad they put it up on Amazon already so it’s an easy return if I don’t like it.
Love the look of it.
