New Caudabe Veil!

Its a very soft plastic material . I could assure you it won't scratch your device . I removed it countless times because I switch case to case and no scratches what's so ever.
The PS doesn't seem to have a raised camera hole for the protruding 6 camera. At least from what I can see.

It doesn't need to since the case thickness is 1.2mm, I'm using one as we speak and I'll settle for this, the raised lip on the camera for the caudabe makes it wobble and not flushed when placed on a table as opposed to the PS
Where in the world is this XT? Nkt available on their website

What are you using? The veil? Veil does not cover the bottom. Where to buy those versions that covers the bottom
With the thin case, it makes the camera about even... but I don't care about having a ton of protection for the camera. It sticks out enough as it is, don't need a case to accentuate the sticking out.
No wobble here either. I love the raised cutout for the new Veil. It was my only complaint about the older version.
The PowerSupport Air Jacket is a completely different class of case, in my opinion. It's substantially thicker and adds a bit too much bulk for my liking. I also dislike glossy cases in general and the PowerSupport is very glossy. I know they have matte versions, but those are completely opaque which to me also defeats the purpose of having a really thin case.
Glad I saw this thread. Just picked up a couple of the updated Veils on Amazon for me and the better half. We both love it, I wonder why they just didn't have that camera ridge ready for the iPhone launch. It's a must have feature for cases this thin.
Maybe for the same reason Apple doesn't announce products before they are ready? Or why some Beta testers are under NDA? I just received word from Marketing that I can go ahead and post my review of the case but I want to wait until they offer it on their site first. I can't imagine it will be much longer now.
That's why I went with Shumuri Slim Extra because I don't want to wait forever for Caudabe, you can see my mini-review of the Shumuri Slim Extra on aonther thread. I remember last year Caudabe sold out of the Veil case and it took them like a month before they have them available again. They said they're selling the case faster than they can make them...come on.
Sure shurumi looks great, but iam a bit sceptic about the fitting.. every picture about that case it looks like the cutouts are a bit off.

Still waiting for my Shurumi. Received my Veil today.. men what a big disappointment . Volume cutouts where way off(covering my bottom volume button) The plastic had stress marks, and the lip was al over the screen bezel not just the metal as people are saying. The reviewers on the veils must be handing out perfect copy's because this looks like a cheap knock off. Unfortunately sending it back from the Netherlands will cost too much and its cheaper to write it off as a loss and throw it in the bin. Lets hope the Shurumi fits better otherwise the search goes on.
Sounds like a mess, but give their customer support a holler. I rave about those guys. Have had nothing but great experiences. Sounds like you got a dud. My Veil still fits and looks great. Waiting on that XT like everyone else .......
Yeah i did, but in my disapointment i ripped it off my phone to the case is damaged even more. Cant send them no photo's to back up my claim. Anyways think i Will try out the spigen Airskin till The shurumi case is here. i can get it from a dutch reseller
So I couldn't wait for the XT and just splurged on one of the new blue Veils. Looks absolutely terrific. It's a very deep blue which I'm a big fan of. Hopefully the XT will be available in this as well although maybe I'll hold off on that altogether since I just got this new one.
Can you post a Photo on how The edge is alligned to you'r screen and how The buttons linea up.
Case is on my phone. Will try later if I have time. Fit is perfect to my eyes, as are all the button cutouts. You probably just got a bad apple. Did you try contacting Caudabe?
Yeah i did, besides a remark on my post in this thread they offered a solution by email. When its resolved i will write and updated on my expierence with customer service and the veil itself.
