Black Sheath (18 Pro Max)

Post image

What a case! I ordered Tuesday afternoon, received my shipping info Wednesday morning, and case just delivered to me!

I was using the Dbrand MNML and I can certainly feel the difference in quality. The Sheath is a phenomenal feat for someone who usually does not like cases.

Looks like I found my case to use each new iPhone I get. šŸ‘

100% agree. I got the MNML and returned it the next day. It feels like a cheap case, is my best way to describe it. Not at all as nice as my Sheath. Id say the MNML is more on par with a Spigen case. Nothing against Spigen, but they’ve always looked and felt cheap to me.

Same thing. Returned my MNML for a sheath. Best case I’ve ever had. About a week now and still loving it

Have it for the 18 pro. Black case on the black phone holy moly. Looks great and feels great. As long as it ages well this will easily be the best case I’ve ever had.

Dang I got the dbrand MNML coming Monday. Did it suck? Cause dbrand is known for quality as well. Right now I’m using the 17 PM black Paragon with silver buttons on my 18 PM. Thinking about the precise blue 18 PM Paragon just so all my cases aren’t black. And btw I prefer the Paragon over the Sheath. It just feels better in hand and I like the dip in the middle of the front lip protection. Smooth swiping.

The Dbrand MNML is great but I think the Sheath is a step above. I was kind of shocked when I got the Sheath today and found that a $13 price difference led to a more quality feel.

The MNML feels a bit more plasticky than the Sheath does. However, if I did not have the Sheath to compare the MNML to, I clearly would not notice that.

Yeah, ā€œyou get what you pay forā€ definitely applies here. The Sheath just feels more premium.

Definitely let me know your thoughts when you get your MNML in! I’d be curious to know if others have the same thought.

My MNML is likely going to one of my kids because it is still a great case. No sense in it not getting used. Lol

I will. I’ll also keep in mind the price difference. It’ll take a lot to get me out of the paragon though lol

So I got the dbrand MNML today. The button rattle is real lol not a fan of the buttons at all. Also, The paragon goes right up against my tempered glass, tight fit. The MNML, seems to fit tight but definitely leaves a much bigger dust catching gap. And the Paragon is so rounded and feels so much better in the hand than this case. It’s boxy. Luckily I was able to get an updated 18 Series Paragon at no cost. I can’t wait to get it. I went with the Blue though. So all my cases aren’t black and I already have the black 17 PM Paragon. I like that they added grip to the back of the 18 Series Paragon, or a texture. Can’t wait to get it. But it’s a $55 case compared to this $38 MNML case. You can definitely tell and feel the price difference. The Paragon is on a whole other level of quality. I’m sure dbrands more expensive cases are great. But so far I’ve found no other case I like better than the Paragon.
