Mous still sending out banana's

That’s normal. Supposedly it contributes to the tight fit.

There’s nothing like a free $85 case!

Paragon Precise. OK, I won the case Lotto—this one is perfect, no defects. I actually really like the feel, the same as last year, Caudabe’s best case IMO. Fortunately, with my UltraGlass screen protector, which is on the thin side, the screen is perfectly flush with the lip, which is acceptable to me and actually feels great. If the screen protector was a fraction of a millimeter thicker it would protrude beyond the lip—I got lucky this time. So overall, not disappointed, and it’ll most likely end up in the rotation.

And to the Mous haters—yes, the Paragon is more comfortable… lol.

One thing I should add. I ordered extra silver buttons for the Paragon and they don’t fit properly. They stick out further than the black buttons that came on the case and the edges feel quite sharp, so they are pretty much unusable. Ugh. This is the type of annoyance that causes me to continue to gripe and complain about Caudabe. It’s always something with them…

But Mous remains your number 1 or?

Yes. The Mous is more protective while being nearly as comfortable. It also has better buttons (see above).

They share the same banana-shape. Does the Mous feel a lot more 'boxy'?

I would say “slightly” more boxy. For me, it’s a fair trade-off for the significantly higher level of drop protection.

What size are they? I believe 2.4 is the correct size for the Paragon.

I believe it’s poor QC, not the incorrect size. They’re labeled 2.4 but they are not precisely the same as the stock buttons.
