The fact that it’s not flush is a bit of a red flag in my opinion.

Yea, just took that case off, back in the drawer 😩guess I'll give the Tinee2 another run.

This thing feels like a round metal sticker with sharp edges and is definitely not flush 😩

It seems crazy that they’d put a raised metal surface inside the case that sits directly on the back of the phone. Didn’t anyone on the design team or in quality control check this? It’s a “patented design” though… 😳

It was shared somewhere in this huge thread and I can’t find it; can someone help? There was a black and white diagram of camera bump area from Apple documentation of sorts - can someone please help me find it? Or maybe showed cameras and antenna area? It was being discussed when we were discussing camera bump area being covered with metal protectors…?

Search is in the fritz, so I can't even find my own post, but here's a fresh copy.

It feels like some kind of sticker and the edges do feel kind of sharp and it's not flush with the inside back of the case.

Can you post a pic of what yours looks on the inside?

Here’s a pic of the current version (top) vs the one I sent back (bottom).

I remember the blue version feeling sharp and protruding, too. That’s why I returned it. The new version is still not completely flush, but it’s now coated somehow and not sharp anymore.
I, too, do not understand this design choice. Why not fully integrate it into the back.

Torras Q3 Air what a POS. Here is the very sharp "Meat Grinder" lurking beneath that sticker on the interior of the case.
Think I'll pass on having this thing destroy the back of my phone 😩

I gave away my Torras and a Spigen Clear Case for exactly the same reason.

My favourite Cases now are the Apple Silicon Cases, the Caudabe Paragon Precise and a leather case from Wiiuka.
