I just got my blue sheath for my regular 16 (in white). I've had my phone since Thursday, but it felt like a stranger's phone (in a cheap Amazon case) until I slipped it in the sheath. This is the way.

Not why these pics are upside down but you get the idea

Thanks! If you guys have any questions or if there is anything you want to know outside the video let me know!
I tried to glean from your video the overall thickness of the Paragon vs. Sheath. from what I could guess from squinting is that it might be a hair thinner overall (at the corners) and then significantly thinner in the center (for swiping)?

I found your assessment that the Synthesis, Sheath, and Paragon are all within 1 gram of each other very interesting.

Paragon “in hand” feels much thinner than the Sheath and even the Synthesis. Your assumption would be right for sure, thinner on in the center and corners. It’s something you have to feel honestly. Doesn’t really come across on video good.
 
Wonder if they may plan to make the paragon in single colours. A celestial blue type would be 🤤

thanks for this insight. would it be hard to measure the case thickness (I'm not talking about the thickness of the material but the thickness of the case itself)

based on my fast measurement right now, the Sheath at the non camera bump portion is 12mm thick.
