That Orange is fire. Hope they drop a true Varsity Red.
Rockin on my 16 Pro right now! Was so surprised and delighted when I "pre-ordered" but it shipped immediately with my Sheath! New favorite!
Nice! Yeah I heard that these were shipping out very soon if not any day now.
Wish they’d make these for the 15 series 😢
It’s their decision, we can’t force them….
They do. In orange.
And now in moonstone as well
They do now in their website
So excited for this to be my first caudabe case! Ordered it in the ember / orange color for my 16 pro max! Also ordered the sheath in Gray after seeing it be so recommended by many TH-camrs for a couple years!
Man I can’t believe they didn’t make them for the 15 pro max those are beautiful 😎
Yeah I wish they made them for the 15 series as well. I feel if you make a new case, make it for the generation before it also.
@@TechnicallyTeewas actually glad to see Benks made their new ArmorTint cases for the 15 pro series so I picked one of those up.
Same I wish they made it for the 15 Pro max they should make it for the previous generation of iPhone too.
I’d never heard of caudabe until I watched your iPhone 13 sheath review, then I bought one and it’s been happily sat on my 13 pro max for the last 3 years. I’ve just upgraded to the 16 pro and I’ve got the ember paragon due anytime soon. Keep up the good work Tee!
Nice and glad I could introduce you. Thanks I appreciate it!!
Hi! What do you think of this case so far? I am thinking of getting it since it’s Black Friday time. I love the white and gray design so that’s really caught my eye
@ honestly I really can’t fault the case I love it. I can only speak for the ember colour but sometimes it’s a very vibrant orange and sometimes it can look like a deep red. When I first got it in my hands I was sceptical of their no scratch claims but it’s held up brilliantly and I can’t see any marks at all. The side rails have a really nice texture to them also, it feels different to the sheath, the best way I can describe it is it feels like a thin layer of pebble. The buttons are great and it cleans up nicely too, a quick scrub with a damp cloth and it looks brand new. Hope that helps.
@@alanwilliams7404 thank you very much! It does
The moonstone paragon is where it’s at 😍
Yup, on the White Titanium phone. I'm not sure how they could have made a more perfect case.
Ready for mine to arrive! Great video ❤
Thanks sis!! 💪🏽💪🏽
This is such a nice case! I would get it...but with shipping and conversion it would be around $80, I can't see myself spending that kind of money on a case.
Awesome review Tee! Can’t wait for the synthesis review! 🔥
Which one is grippier? Sheath? Synthesis? Or Paragon?
Hmmmmmmm it’s close but would say the paragon.
Another banger bro!! Love the colors of this case
Thanks much appreciated homie! 💪🏽💪🏽
bro rocking the shevon's wallpaper
Been waiting for this! What are your thoughts on Caudabe’s Veil case?? Will you be reviewing that for the 16 Pro Max as well??
Caudabe Veil is for people who want the thin thin thin feel. It’s not terrible and they actually have some great things on it that the other brands that makes that case doesn’t have. Going to do a video on it for sure.
@@TechnicallyTee Let’s go! Excited to see it.
Only waiting for no cutout cases.
Spigen makes one and Apple now get outta here 😂 jk lol
There are options out there if you really need the button.
That material looks thin by the camera button due to slimmer sides, I would have prefered the same lip all around. The white would match any phone color and the other two not so much so a black option would have been nice.
Yeah they aren’t planning to do plain colors when it comes to the Paragon. It’s basically reserved for all the bright and extreme colors that you don’t see on sheath and synthesis.
Sheath vs paragon are they as thin as each other? Or is sheath a bit more minimalist?
Nice new case, will you also be reviewing the updated Nomad Sport Case for iPhone 16 series?
Yep sure will. I have it sitting In my office.
Which do you prefer out of all 3? I ordered a Flolab case, but this is making me rethink it
I think I’m still choosing the Sheath over all.
@@TechnicallyTee thank you, just ordered a Sheath and a Flolab case, super curious how the grip or texture is going to be on the Flolab
Wish they made these for the 14 series too!
Hey, thanks much for getting this out so quick! These are beautiful cases, but the cutout is a no-go… 😫 I hope they figure out a capacitive cover, will buy one in a hot minute if they do.
What is ur wallpaper name please and where ai can find it
Thanks
Been waiting
💪🏽💪🏽
@@TechnicallyTeesmooth back reminds me of the gripmunk.
Hey Tee, nice content 🫡, that moonstone wondering about the color of the buttons is it black or a dark gray? Thank you 😊
Moonstone + White Titanium 😍
🔥🔥🔥
How does it dominate pocket ? Is it easy to pull the in and out one the pocket?
And overall would you recommend the sheath this one or the synthesis for max protection ? I’m coming from a BENKS Kevlar 15 PM. Didn’t love finger print attractiveness of the carbon fiber of that case but it seemed to protect my phone very well
I'm so glad I cancelled my delayed natural titanium 16 Pro and got myself a white one instead, because it looks great with pretty much any case, as proven by this video. If Caudabe put a real cover over the camera button, I'm definitely picking up one of these cases, but it's going to be a pain trying to decide which color to get. 😅
Well you know you could just get all of them eventually 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@TechnicallyTee Hah, yeah, I guess you can never have one too many cases, but my Pitaka Sunset (Military-Grade version) just arrived so I think I'll have to show that some love before moving on to whatever's next 😁
Been waiting for this! Just ordered the moonstone
Ayeee 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Caudabe going to update their line up with a new button? I saw tough armor Series from Spigen are on backorder now and will be ship out in 10 days. Did you get any updates from Caudabe? They email said they don't plan to update but I'm just hoping...Really like their case.
I’m not sure honestly. I think they might update the Paragon with the button but I’m not sure about the others. But I don’t know 100%.
I’ve watched enough of your videos, so I figured I’d subscribe. Lol.
Well it’s about d**m time lol
@@TechnicallyTee could’ve sworn I already had. 😂 love that moonstone color.
Thanks tee for bringing this video out as soon as possible 🙏🏻 that moonstone white is definitely the colour to get with that beautiful white iPhone. Do you think they will offer this case for the iPhone 15 series
Thanks I appreciate it! I’m not sure if they are bringing it to the iPhone 15 series.
Wish caudabe would show love to the base model phone. I’m still on the 15 pro max but I’d def get the paragon on the base model 17 if the rumors end up being true that all the 17 series phones will have 120hz.
Yah I get it for sure. Probably a demand and popularity thing.
@@TechnicallyTee If you won't shell out a little more 💵 for the Pro, it's less likely you're dropping $50 on a Caudabe case. Sad facts really, because it embarrasses your phone big time if it's not wearing a premium case.
Reminds me of the Nomad Sport case…nice review
Yeah kinda but I’ll take this all day over the Sport.
Hey Tee, big fan of your vids, keep doing your thing! Do you like this year’s synthesis better than last year? 👀
That's my kind of a false start! Keep em comin!
You already know!!
We need a sheath in ember!
That would be 🔥🔥🔥🔥actually.
That Seaglass makes me want to get an iPhone
🤣🤣🤣
For $50, that magsafe strength better be strong
Are these dropping for the 15 max?
I’m not sure.
Technically tee i picked up ember for my desert titanuim it will look fire 🔥
Hope they release the one with the actual button
cool blue color
Does the moonstone back take on the color of blue jeans denim? If it stays white then greed it’s the best colorway, just wondering how the white material might take on colors of materials that tend to bleed color.
I don’t think it will. It doesn’t seem like that kind of material but only time will tell.
Mine hasn't so far. I'm not going to promise it's invincible but it also seems really resistant to smudges and scratches, so far.
Torras 360 spin case please, waiting for your take before buying
Is that ember Orange or Red?
It’s orange.
Caudabe has always been my main go to case company. Unfortunately, I recently had to return two sheaths because of fitment issues. The lip on the front screen was uneven and non existent on the camera side. It seems like their quality control has went downhill 👎🏼.
Caudabe missing out on sales for not having this available for non pro users. I showed my sister this video and she loved it but a non pro user
i am looking at Paragon on their site right now for iPhone 16 non pro
Yeah it would be dope of they made it for all models. I get they have to probably do it for business reasons.
Hey there! Paragon is available for non Pro models of iPhone 16!
why no love for the plus model..?
Yeah I’m not sure. Might not be enough demand.
Please make a video on the veil case by cadaube:)
Yep I have it and it’s coming.
@@TechnicallyTee I like light weight cases as I have a wrist problem:)
Wish they would create a Synthesis in the purple they offered for the 15’s
Also, could they offer an option that completely covers the useless Camera Control?!
Yah I would love to see that purple come back as well. I don’t really like how we see colors come and go.
Which is your favourite case you have tried so far?
Sheath so far honestly.
@@TechnicallyTee Will you go with Caudabe Sheath over Supcase Unicorn Beetle Mag?
I wish Caudabe would make a MagSafe wallet
The veil is bad ass @tee gotta do a review on it
Not a fan of all these cases with cut-outs for the camera button.
What else are they going to have? If you really want to use that button, the cut out is the most direct feedback.
@@supreme5998no it isn’t. Every official case by apple has a sapphire crystal button to allow full functionality
Same! 😊
Agreed. The problem I have with the cut out is that it’s right where I hold the phone during normal use.
How are you supposed to use the USB-C, speakers, or mic without cut outs?
/s
Wish there was a black paragon
I want one too but I don’t think you will really many subtle colors. I think they did this series for the colorful stuff.
What watch band are you using?
Nomad Rocky Point
Bingo.
I would still like to see the MagSafe wallet test. I carry my Apple one everyday still
Please review TORRAS 360 Rotatable Magnetic phone case. Do a review on the magnet (after a week) and how the quality and durability lasts.
Yeah I’ll have to check it out.
@@TechnicallyTee Thanks)
@@TechnicallyTee Please do) I am considering to buy it for my friend)
the back of the case looks like Nomad sport case and if it does it can scratch easily
No where near as shiny as that.
Would these color cases go good with the Natty 16?
I think the seaglass and ember would.
Moonstone 🔥
Physics 101 if the case is hard it will make more damage to your device. To consume any kind of impact or hit the case needs to be softer
You’re correct! Although, drop protection is a very complex subject and so much more plays a role than simply the case material itself. All that said, the perimeter of Paragon is manufactured from the same softer, shock-absorbing ShockLite material that’s on our most protective cases.
I been looking for a case that’s flat in the middle apart from the dbrand grip and mous limitless!!!
Thanks bro!!!!
So... for this year if you have to choose one, is it the Sheath, Synthesis or Paragon?
I’m wondering to
15PM owner here and I honestly can’t choose just one between the synthesis and sheath haha. They’re a little underwhelming at first but they’re a subtle case that appreciation grows for.
I’m still choosing the Sheath honestly.
@@TechnicallyTee That's what I'm thinking too, but man the cutouts on these cases are really giving me pause this year.
@@TechnicallyTeeyou will have to tell us why the syntheses last year and the sheath this year
Whish there was a mat black color for the Paragon 🙁
Yeah they aren’t going to be making any plain colors on the Paragon.
Moonst I ne sounds cool
In different with this case. 🤷🏼 Synthesis review soon?!?
Yep indeed it is.
This or Apple silicon?
That 🍊is 🔥🔥🔥
So dope in person.
Hey Tee… thank you for always having some clean nails! I can’t say the some to other TH-camrs. Lol fingernails can get me to stop watching a video (even if I really really really wanna see the case review)
Hahaha that’s funny you say that, it’s always something I’m taking care of and also can’t have them all long lol.
Could you review the FLOLAB Surtect Tri-Fusion? Looking for something that is protective but still somewhat minimalistic. I have had the mous but after seeing their giant cutout I just don't think it is worth it anymore.
Yep I have it and the video is coming soon. It’s a decent case but there is better out there for sure.
Case of the year. Just saying. A company that listens 😁 #ORANGE
Bro where’s my Benks Armor Pro
It’s coming. Only one man and just doing them as I see fit.
@@TechnicallyTeeexcellent
No tnf shirt today?
Based on what I see, in the middle area there is even less raisivity on the sides than I've got on Ringke Onyx Magnetic. When I travel, I tend to drop a couple stacked phones in my bag and would appreciate if the lip would go around the screen. Rebel Gen5 had a very slight raisivity on the sides but the lip was still a bit higher than the glass screen protector. Onyx is flat with the screen (well, maybe even have a mil higher than the screen). @TechnicallyTee, can you confirm if Paragon's sides are lower than the glass?
Need to sell a kidney so I can buy me some cases to unbox for my channel
T lemme get the grey/white I’ll send over a Venmo
🤣🤣🤣🤣
I always wondered, who swipes all the way to the edges of the screen? That has never been an issue for me since the beginning of the iphone. Not a fan of this style case but very informative video T!
Yeah true indeed but depends on what you are doing you can tell the difference.
Come one now caudabe send me my ember case!
Hahaha hope this video answered your questions you had about it.
@@TechnicallyTeeit did! I think the ember and dessert will go great together so I’m excited to see it in person. Always look forward to see what video you come out with next!
@besper13 I’m going to take some pics of the Desert Ti with all the colors.
It's a synthesis with a shiny backside nothing that gives one some warm fuzzy feelings.
Few subtle changes but it does feel like a synthesis in hand.
Had the hand ready to catch the charger…didnt want to add another dent to the table ha.
I’m beating my table up. This thing wasn’t cheap either
Yessir
💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
50 grams, what is it… a brick!
Can’t feel it when holding it to be honest.
Caudabe cases feel and look like a generic $10 amazon case. I have the Sheath for the iPhone 15 Pro and was disappointed. I really dont understand the hype with these cases
So slippery too
All personal preference at the end of the day.
@@TechnicallyTeewhich do you prefer overall, the Sheath or the paragon. I have the sheath for my 14 pro, like it a lot, but would love something thinner.
It definitely doesn’t,
Lame they didn’t make it for the 15 series. Also the cutout is a big L
Cutout isn’t that bad.
I’m not impressed with this case, MagBak is my favorite case
All personal preference for sure.
No, the number one question is not the material, it’s the cutout
The cutout is what it is. If you need a button then you have options.
1st
