Gen6 loses too much grip. You guys ruined the legend this year. Gen5 was the best case ever not because of its premiumness but because of unparalleled usability. Changes wont help reach pitaka-like premium feel anyway but downgrades are just too much.

Man, I fast forward to the mag safe test each time... and you never fail me. Also, removing the "claws" on the back makes this case too floppy if you are typing while it's laying on a desk. I'd buy a Gen 5 if they made it for the 16 Pro Max, tbh.

I’m also a bit shocked that the case’s magsafe wasn’t able to lift up your magsafe charger. It wasn’t a problem on their previous rebel cases.

Does it grip better than the Frosted one? The Frosted gen 6 one has the spikes but I swear that thing is insanely slick. The Gen 5 aramid and frosted looked the same on the side but the aramid had crazy grip where the frosted was quite slippery. I actually LOVED those grip spikes on the 5.
@TechnicallyTee2 ай бұрын
It’s funny you say that because the grips are the same but I would give the better grip to the Rebel Gen over the frosted and that’s probably because of the rear material of the frosted.
@doug63572 ай бұрын
@ I might get one from Amazon because I can do a hassle free return. I know everyone's hands perceive grip differently but the aramid sides specifically on gen 5 actually grabbed into your fingers whereas the frosted gen 5 and 6 spikes are both visually there but definitely don't dig into the fingers at all. I couldn't even keep them on the phone for more than a day. Kept the aramid on for like 9 months. The back helps, but I swear the sides are totally different material.

Just got my regular Gen6 and disappointed same as with frosted Gen6. It feels more premium than Gen5 however it absolutely does not matter as grip is not there anymore.

Gen6 definitely does not provide that comfort and peace of mind as I'm used to. This makes Synthesis my king this year.

There is also a gap I can see through between the camera ring and body of the case. Looking at the inside of the case, bottom left corner.
