To Caudabe or not to Caudabe!

Pics?

I’ll try and do it (much) later. Phone is in back in the Techwoven case for now and I’ve packed the Sheath away, but I will do it later.

After I put it on, I tried “squeezing” the case on around the affected area but it gradually fell back.

EDIT: Here are some pics. It’s the precise cut by the way. Doesn’t photo well with an iPad camera but it’s clearly slightly off. Also, I did a video of the rattle, you will need to turn your volume up, ha.

I have just actioned a return and refund. I appreciate that I may appear pedantic, but this is a £50 case, not some £10 bit of plastic off Amazon. Such problems with a cheap case are forgivable. £50, not so much.

I never had a problem getting cases for my 14 PM, but it seems like every year Caudabe fumbles and lets people down. I just don't get it. Are they a small company with huge demand, or does their shipping center just suck (a la dbrand)?

Paragon buyers, are you ordering "Precise" or "Open"?

My Blue Sheath which I ordered on September 9 is still not shipped...

I am in the same boat. I think there are some QA issues. I emailed them a couple days ago about the order status and got an email response from Liz about case not fitting properly. I was like Liz I don’t even have my case yet…

Is it just me or does the light tap to access the camera control not work with Caudabe cases? You experience the same thing?

Anyone have their 'open' Sheaths yet? Want to see one in the wild before deciding to buy.

I believe Caudabe got in a total or 2 Paragons and you got one of them

I have to tap it a bit harder with the case on than off but it still works well.

It sure seems like it. Within MacRumors anyway.

The gray sheath I used on my 12PM and purple sheath I used on my 14PM were both great cases. I’m tempted to pick up a gray open sheath for my 17PM, but I guess I’ll hold off and see if I feel the need for a 3rd case besides the sienna Techwoven and Pitaka. 🤷‍♂️

Same, ordered a Sheath Eucalyptus for the iPhone 17. Seems it's delayed again to end of October now. Initially didn't care because my iPhone 17 order from Apple got delayed a few times but now it's coming this week and Caudabe hasn't shipped yet. I already had to cancel my other Caudabe order, frustrating, launch seems very poorly managed.

Once my 17 gets here I'll just cancel this order too. Any other case recommendations similar to Caudabe quality? Wish they made base model Techwoven... Thanks

Haha, that’s bunk!

I already tried something roughly equivalent and it always receded back on the side. No amount of jimmying is going to fix it.

A reminder that even though it’s almost October 15th, Caudabe’s “mid-month” runs until October 25.
