The title of this thread has me wondering about the 17 Pro Silicone cases. In the past I've found them just a tad too grippy, leading to unwanted lint. Is this still the case or have they changed them up this year. I do love how they fit, though.

Yes, it is. If you’re wanting a super smooth contour that mimics the phone closely, you probably won’t like it. I don’t mind it though, and find it comfortable enough.

I dropped my Air in the Phone Rebel case and the back glass cracked near the camera area. Luckily I have Apple Care but I might need a more durable case.

Wow, that’s a bummer. Can you provide any more details about the drop—from what height, on what surface, on which side/edge of the phone?
It was a pretty rough drop onto concrete from about 4 feet. I’m assuming it landed on the top edge. I didn’t even notice it until I took my phone out to clean it a couple days later.

Can we get a pic of the damage? Did the case get any damage?
So much for the 50’ tower drop 🤣

Grip is here and damn this thing is ugly asf with the leather skin 💀 it does feel good and much slimmer than previous versions but probably prefer the sheath and rebel over this grip as they look much better than this monstrosity
Well, if Sheath is minimalistic, than the Grip is ultra-minimalistic. I don’t think it’s ugly but I can see why someone might think it is 🙂)
Still trying to decide between Grip and Mous… I can’t really see how protective case can be with open plateau area… but the options are so limited.

To the people who have a Grip with a skin right now: is your skin also not properly adhering to the slope below the camera plateau? I have this problem and other people over on Reddit are reporting the same thing.

if you want a mix of both i think rebel is your option it feels thinner than both but can take a drop too

mine is good for now but it does not seem to align well on the bottom as its lifting so might rip it off soon (plus its ugly lol)

Actually I’m quite enjoying my Sheath right now, despite the alignment problems… PR is tempting but like a Mous it’s an open plateau case - so much open aluminium area especially with pro max models. Once I had a very minor fall with my 14Pro on a gravel pavement and had to live with a nick on one of the camera lenses.

Grab the plateu cover lense. Or slap some camera ring protectors on it

My open Paragon in black arrived today and I love it. I ordered the open sheath before and thought they are sending both. So still waiting for the Sheath.
