I’ll order once the buttons are available. I have their aramid fibre case and in all honesty, I am really impressed. A suggestion would be to offer bundles with buttons from day 1 so customers don’t have to wait.
I have both Frosted and Rebel Gen 5, and two things I’ve noticed is that the grip on the Frosted Gen 5 more smoothed out than the Rebel Gen 5, and the USB-C slot is a bit more wider on the Frosted than Rebel
I have the frosted and the frosted flex for the 15 PM. The usb c port is definitely smaller on the flex. 3 of my cables that fit the frosted do not fit the frosted flex.
I've had no issues with any of my cables on either case thankfully. As for the grips, I just put the frosted one on and the grips are definitely less aggressive. Not sure how much I like it but I'm gonna run this case for a few days and see if it's a deal breaker. The aramid one doesn't look as nice but checks all the boxes with authority especially for a grip guy like me.
Just loved when the magsafe battery fell off. However, your point was made. Fun video. Through you, I discovered the aramid fibre and got it. It’s my favourite case to date. Very well thought out… and I have owned Mous and Caudabe cases among others over the years.
I love phone rebel gen cases but they gotta sort the release times of there stuff out. It all comes out at different times way after the phone came. I buy the case and pay shipping and then have to wait to buy the buttons and that and then pay shipping again. Not good. Release all the stuff at once please
This case is always fire! Finally got my Ghost case for the 15 pro max yesterday, So far i really like it! Also copped the Electric blue strike nomad sport band, Thanks for the heads up about that too!
Ghost case is trash tho seen way to many post about it lately, will be covered in scratches in a couple days, but most do anyways that’s why I stay away from clear to begin with
I just got my ghost case I don’t like it the grip feels awful and the case is so flimsy don’t think it will hold up in a drop disappointed I spent my money on it.
Would it be more fair to compare the phone rebel crystal to the ghost case? I ordered the ghost case and still have not gotten it but from what I have read people are not happy with all the scratches on the ghost case. Sounds like d-brand is going to try and fix the coating issue but won’t have new cases until April 2024 which is a long ways away in my opinion so I’m hoping they will still send me the case since I have paid for it. Sounds like everyone who ordered the ghost case will get a new case in the spring so I guess that’s alright.
Crazy that they haven’t dropped the changeable parts yet so my case is abandon in my drawer because that copper looking metal doesn’t match the black titanium imo
Just ordered the frosted! Returned the aramid fiber, I just didn’t like the feel of it, but loved the shape of the case, fit perfect in my hand, but I also want to see my blue titanium phone. Can’t wait for it to come.
Hey Tee the side grips between the Rebel gen 5 and the Frosted gen 5 are different with the frosted having softer bite. But how significantly different?
I have the gen 4 without magsafe. I absolutely love their aramid fiber case in red for the 14 Pro Max (yes I still have the 14 Pro Max in deep purple) but I hate the clear case. It leaves white spots.
Will they be making frosted for 15 and 15+? Their website doesn’t even show options for them like the aramid does. That would be huge bummer bc I want a frosted for my 15+
Hay TechnicallyTee, I understand phone rebel made gen 5 for the 14 pro max but do know if they’re gunna make gen5 frosted for 14 pro max? Or just exclusive to the 15 series?
I think the frosted would look great if it was clear frosted remove the black color go clear add color to the corners maybe do the blue TPE color or go white so people feel comfortable knowing there something there to protect the phone
@@garethalston yeah i saw that, I need MagSafe though. It’s infuriating that everything is becoming available besides the one case I’ve been literally waiting for for months.
From Someone who has an aramid gen 5 for the 15PM, the screws are slightly recessed so I don’t think it is possible for them to scratch. They are also painted over so i don’t think they would be able to anyways. Hope this helped
I love my Gen 5 frosted except for the magnets 😒😒😒have yet to have a phone rebel case where the magnets don’t end up attached to my phone when I take the case off. However the ultra orange combo with the blue titanium 15 pro max is fire 🔥. But I need to everything apple pro to get on top of these magnets popping out.
This looks like a great case with a good amount of camera protection, which is something I’ve been looking for. Can you say if the sides are a hard plastic or if they are more soft / rubbery? The only thing I worry about is whether the grippy textures can dig into my skin when holding the phone a lot.
Hey T review the natural titanium buttons. They available with 20off promo code. I got the blue but camera lens are scuffed up after a week or so I know I didn't slam too hard so I ordered the natural titanium to see if same issue. Lol
@@gtiguy1992able, I have to agree. Phone Rebel cases are now legit! The Gen 3 weren’t great, the magnets came out of the case and stuck to your phone. Gen 4 was great and Gen 5 will be even better.
I wanted the rebel frosted flex but couldn’t buy it yet so I finally gave up and ordered the Spigen frosted case last weekend lmao.. the Spigen one is nice and was on sale for $19.99 so I guess I’ll wait awhile for the phone rebel 😢😅
Left Mous for this case , camera guard is a game changer…. Coming from a Mous for the last 4 years , not even a comparison, Mous needs to step it up regarding their branding and camera protection
Nice review Tee on the Phone Rebel frosted case , I tried 2 order one for my 15 they emailed me back saying they are not making the frosted or the flex for the 15 so disappointing 😎🇨🇮

Yeah the release schedule is a problem.
How are the buttons on the inside? Think they will scratch the titanium buttons?
Not aVailable for 15 pro with magsafe yet. Im waiting since day one from apple 15 pro announcement. Already 2 months 😢
Yeah they take forever with the cases and for needs to be something that’s sped up.
have you tried a dbrand skin with this frosted case?
Tee are the buttons metal to iPhone metal or are they covered inside the case?

@@Paa375 rebel gen 5 frosted man the way to go
I already have the Rebel. I’m waiting on the Clear version by Phone Rebel. I too am waiting for the buttons and the camera ring.
I want the case battle between phone rebel frosted and the dbrand Ghost case
Phone Rebel, hands down
Hmmmmm that would be interesting.
Phone rebel to many bad reviews coming back from the ghost case
Would it be more fair to compare the phone rebel crystal to the ghost case?

@@Paa375 that would be more fair if u want a complete clear case I guess the frosted series looks sick on the natural titanium
I wonder if any of the phone cases you reviewed will have a Black Friday sale
Alot of them do.
@@TechnicallyTee Thanks man will look into them
Crazy that they haven’t dropped the changeable parts yet so my case is abandon in my drawer because that copper looking metal doesn’t match the black titanium imo
T I have a question, does the case buttons scratch the phone buttons?
My gen 5 camera ring starting discolor
Sheesh really? I might use one long term and see how it ages. Could be a video series I start doing.
Yeah mine also. If you put phone down Camera side and it scrapes up and down on table. It changes the colour of the camera ring
Any liner on the buttons?
No, still bare metal. Don't know yet if that will cause scratches on the iPhone's buttons. Somehow I doubt it.
Just ordered the frosted! Returned the aramid fiber, I just didn’t like the feel of it, but loved the shape of the case, fit perfect in my hand, but I also want to see my blue titanium phone. Can’t wait for it to come.
I ordered the Frosted Flex for the 15 PM.
I prefer to use the actual buttons..
Frosted flex is solid.
Anyone’s interior frost finish show scuff marks? Or exterior? I read about a few instances of the interior scuffing on macrumors.
Hey Tee the side grips between the Rebel gen 5 and the Frosted gen 5 are different with the frosted having softer bite.
But how significantly different?
Any concern about the screws scratching the phone?
I haven’t experienced it yet but it’s something I’m paying attention to because I know alot of people are worried about that.
Are they not making it for the non pro version of the iPhone 15? Do you have any info about it?
My frosted is already all scratched up on the back lol (work in landscaping) I ordered a crystal case but USPS lost my package..
May i know the standard camera cover and button color is what color?its natural color?
it's annoying that only now the Rebel carbon fiber is available for the Plus model, i've gotten the case from Speck instead
I have the gen 4 without magsafe. I absolutely love their aramid fiber case in red for the 14 Pro Max (yes I still have the 14 Pro Max in deep purple) but I hate the clear case. It leaves white spots.
Can you buy the incipio idol case. I have it for the the base iPhone 15
Do you prefer the crystal clear one or frosted @tee?
Great review.
Question: out of interest, what do you do with all your covers after you have upgraded to the newer model?
He sells them to his subscribers
My rebel flex came yesterday and I love it
Will they be making frosted for 15 and 15+? Their website doesn’t even show options for them like the aramid does. That would be huge bummer bc I want a frosted for my 15+
I hope so because it would make no sense not too. I’m sure they pushed out the Pro models first. I wish all would drop at the same time.
I hope they do make them for the regular iPhone 15’s and show some love to those models too 🙏🏻
9:02 the shake tests are becoming iconic 😂😂
You never know what’s going to happen! Lol
Where you get that watch band from? I need that
Does it attract oils and fingerprints as easily as the aramid one? I also think it’s nicer than the aramid and I used your link to buy one.
It definitely won’t show as much as the aramid fiber one, but under certain light conditions it’ll show, but not as much.
When you doing the Gen 5 button and camera ring video?
Hay TechnicallyTee, I understand phone rebel made gen 5 for the 14 pro max but do know if they’re gunna make gen5 frosted for 14 pro max? Or just exclusive to the 15 series?
Ayo Tee was just thinking if you would try the Alumu cases specially the vegan leather version and their accessories. Would be happy to know
Link to wallpaper please
Check a creator named Jhawk, it’s his paid wallpaper pack.
Tee Is the frosted back sort of a matte finish?
Yep.
@@TechnicallyTee so it sort of rough but not completely smooth.
Does the button came with protection?
My phone gen 5 bottom right corner is lose and hear it “creek”
I’ve heard a creak in one of my Gen 5S also.
I think the frosted would look great if it was clear frosted remove the black color go clear add color to the corners maybe do the blue TPE color or go white so people feel comfortable knowing there something there to protect the phone
Another Stella video in the books,random question what lock screen is that?? It’s really cool and I dig it.
Still waiting for the 15 pro version 😞
They have the non MagSafe version out for 15 pro
@@garethalston yeah i saw that, I need MagSafe though. It’s infuriating that everything is becoming available besides the one case I’ve been literally waiting for for months.
@@garethalstonI think most people will want the MagSafe version
Is there any discount code? 👀
Yeah they usually have a small one on the website.
@@TechnicallyTeeI haven’t been able to find one that works but I want to order this!
It looks like the USB C slot on the bottom is small, or will most cables fit without any problem ?
I have both the Rebel Gen 5 and Frosted Gen 5, and the USB-C slot on the Frosted Gen 5 is definitely a little more wider than on the Rebel Gen 5
Thanks, I would hate to have to use a Dremel on a new case.@@IINCURSIIO
@@IINCURSIIOwhat is standard color the camera guard and the button for the frosted?
kinda feel that magsafe strength is weaker compared to frosted gen 4 version
Phillip already did the drop test in his last video!
I’ll have to check it out.
Got link to the drop test video?
Does it yellow
Tee what is your top recommendation for the normal 15
I think he’ll say Pitaka pro or Caudabe Sheath
Curious about the camera screws and if they will scratch up you phone over time. 💪🏽 💪🏽
From
Someone who has an aramid gen 5 for the 15PM, the screws are slightly recessed so I don’t think it is possible for them to scratch. They are also painted over so i don’t think they would be able to anyways. Hope this helped
I don’t think it will but it’s something I’ll pay attention to because I know everyone is concerned about that.
this or the caudabe synthesis?
Fab as always. Casetify clear next please 🙏🏻
That’s one I don’t have right now.
I NEED THEM TO RELEASE THE 15 PRO MODEL

I think the frosted might be nicer looking than the aramid one lol
Real talk I think it does also lol
Definitely is imo. Really comes down to liking the carbon fiber look or not.
I wish I hadn’t purchased the Rebel case. I got frustrated, waiting on the Phone Rebel, Crystal case. I’ll still end up purchasing it, once it drops.

What watch band
On the website, the photos look more copper coloured. But yours looks matte black and so much better! Weird!?
If you’re talking about the camera ring and buttons they do have a copper hue.
