Who has a Phone Rebel case and what do you think of them? All the YouTube reviews seems great but I haven’t seen anybody normal who has one?

Second question, assuming you’d like one, would you get the crystal clear or frosted back?

I bought neither the crystal or clear but went with the Rebel carbon fiber. Definitely a high quality case with unique properties.

Was it worth the wait? I bought and ordered on 2/20 release night and have had it only a few weeks now. Not sure any phone case is "worth" a wait but this is probably the best case I have used (had plenty).

My sentiments are exactly the same. I ordered it and tried to forget about it. Then once it came I was excited. And I still am - I’m enjoying the case.

Got it today and I’m undecided. If I keep it Ill have to change screen protectors, it pulls up the corners of my flolab full coverage glass. Also, how the hell do you install those side stickers? I can’t peel them to save my life and feel dumb for not being able to figure it out.

Which one did you end up getting and for which phone ?
 
After 10-15 plus cases, finally, I'm done. Truly found my new favorite case. This case feels amazing in the hand and looks so stylish. For me, this is the first case of this kind and might put an end to my case journey.

I got the frosted version, really like the idea of a clear back but every clear case I’ve ever had drove me nuts with lint and scratches and finger prints. The frosted doesn’t show the color as well but definitely hides wear and prints.

If you don’t mind me asking, when did you order?
 
Also, it didn't fit the flolab but the bodyguardz full coverage fits perfectly, no corner lift at all.
 
Thank you. I keep contemplating but the shipping concerns have me hesitating

He did say in his latest video that they are shipping the rest of the preorders out next week but are caught up on stock now.
