My top 2 are still the Paragon precise and PR Gen 7, but the PR is winning out on a daily basis. While the somewhat slippery back of the Paragon hasn't ever bothered me, it's the all over grip on the PR that does it for me, especially when your hands are dry in the winter. But I especially love how the front is like the the Paragon and has the sloped sides but also the same on the top and bottom.

And I don't seem to have the somewhat flimsy top on my PR. It's nice and tight like the rest of the case.
I find that dust builds up in the PR. I stopped using the camera protector because of the dust. Still remove my phone every few days to clean inside the case around the camera.

Agreed but man if only the PR has a less pronounced and less sharp camera ring… would be the perfect case otherwise
 
That’s a lot of phones! Definitely an expensive hobby 🫡
This is the only memory I have left of my expensive hobby. Should have kept the 3G instead though 😂

Ripped off the skin on the grip case finally and its actually much nicer this way, looks much cleaner and the ramp on the plateau makes it very comfortable. Only con are the sides which are excessively grippy lol View attachment 2599628
I dig that case, if only because it hides the fact I own an iphone... which I don't care to advertise to the world LOL. 😅

I want to love this case but charge port hole cutout basically only allows Apple branded charge cord to work. :/
 
Anyone having issues with the Flolab 3D screen protector (or any of the 3d glass) and lifting with any caudabe or Techwoven cases? Looking at the paragon, sheath and Techwoven but was not sure how tight the fit is this year.
 
I never thought I‘d join the Sheath gang, after all the cases I tested and tried and liked, but here I am, two weeks into having the Sheath and all other cases are collecting dust in a box now. lol.

So my updated top five would be as follows:

1. Caudabe Sheath
2. Flolab Surtect
3. Rhinoshield AirX
4. Mous Limitless
5. dbrand Grip (this case would be waaaay higher on the list if it would offer more protection. It’s a shame, really)

Honorable Mentions: PR Gen7, Beats Rugged, Apple Silicone, Wiiuka Skiin.

I think I’m finally done with buying new cases. Might consider an additional Caudabe case down the road though.

No idea about those (I don't have a caudabe/techwoven case either), but for comparison my not-3d flolab that I got early november has been awesome, no delaminating or anything.
