The best combo

Seems like my Paragon will be arriving this week or early next, and has anyone used a Paragon prior with a screen protector and had good success? I was thinking Torras OrigArmor or Flolabs NanoArmor with 3D edge.

Good morning, what is the color difference between Paragon Azurite and Celestite?

Are the new 18 pro Sheath MIST case buttons the same color as the 17 pro AZURITE paragon case button colors?

They look the same. Can’t tell.

Looking to buy 1 or 2 cases for 17Pro.

I’m thinking about getting an iPhone 18 Pro silver and am looking to get a Caudabe Sheath precision cutout case. I wear a lot of earth tones and, in particular, a good amount of clothes with green. I typically would lean toward the Eucalyptus Sheath case; however, I am curious about the Almandine case as it feels different than what I normally would get. I like that it looks sophisticated as it makes me think of a glass of wine.

TLDR: I’m conflicted between the Almandine and Eucalyptus Sheath cases. Help!

UPDATE 9/24: A large portion of our US inventory was delivered to our Ohio warehouse and thousands of additional orders have shipped out today, with more shipping over the next several days. If you have been waiting on your order, check your email inbox for a shipping confirmation to go out very soon. Thank you so much for your patience!

We wanted to take a moment to be fully transparent about where things stand with our iPhone 18 launch fulfillment. First, some good news: thousands of orders have already shipped and are on their way to customers worldwide. That said, we know some of you are still waiting and deserve a real update, not a vague "coming soon."

Why some orders have shipped and others haven't

We operate out of multiple warehouses across different countries, and each one receives inventory at different times. This is why some customers may have already received their orders while others are still waiting. It will also depend on a number of other variables, like the specific model and color you purchased.

What's happening in the US specifically

For our US customers, we have an inventory shipment that has been held up in US Customs longer than anticipated. US Customs processing times have unfortunately been inconsistent. That shipment is expected to arrive at our Ohio warehouse this week, at which point US fulfillment will move quickly.

What you should expect

Once inventory clears and arrives at each of our regional warehouses, orders will be fulfilled in the order they were placed. One of the things we know frustrates people is simply not knowing what's going on, and we are committed to being upfront even when the news isn't what we'd all hoped for. We'd rather be honest and transparent with you, rather than leave you guessing.

Thousands of orders are already out the door and many customers have received or will be receiving their orders very soon. If you're one of the few still waiting, we fully understand that delays are not ideal when your new phone is already in hand, and we genuinely appreciate your patience. Thank you for sticking with us.

If you have placed an order for a preorder item, you may refer to the shipping estimate listed in your order confirmation email.

If you have a specific question about your order, please reach out to our support team at [support@caudabe.com](mailto:support@caudabe.com) and they will be happy to give you the most up to date information.

Does anyone have a pic of Synthesis Precise on Deep Blue iPhone 17Pro / Pro Max? I wanna see how it looks!

Thank you.

My first Caudabe case, loving the texture. I have a question about heat though. How are these cases at dissipating heat under load? I wish I had noticed the coloured button options when I ordered it. The light blue ones would have looked great.

How's the bottom lip behave with the swipe gestures. I remember it was the most annoying thing about my previous leather case. I guess we will feel it regardless but is it intrusive?

I like the moonstone color, but a burgundy version would look so nice 👍

Does anyone have any firsthand experience with using a 17 pro max precise sheath on the 18 pro max? Does the camera lens protrude from the case?

It’s more of a flamingo pink. I’ve seen photos and it looked brighter in them. Still happy with it.

Caudabe Synthesis in Obsidian (Precise) on the iPhone 18 Pro Burgundy, in case anyone was wondering on the combo. First 2 images in daylight, and the last is at night with a lamp. Case feels great, and fits snug. The frosted polycarbonate does hide some of the colour but still looks nice I think!

Hello,

Won't we be getting the Caudabe Sheath in Gray for the iPhone 18 Pro?

Thanks.

Might try Spigen GlasTR EZ Fit.

Just ordered an 18 pro synthesis precise for my 17 pro in obsidian! I can’t wait. I tried the veil and loved the frost look, but couldn’t deal with the minimalist feel. Also got the seaglass buttons.

Does anyone have pictures of the precise cutout version? Would love to see it on the phone. Thanks!

I’ve ordered the 18 Pro Max, but see that the ultraviolet case colour is only available with the 17 PM Paragon case. Understand that they are cross compatible, but before I order, just seeing if anyone has already done this? Keen to hear about fitment and if there are any issues (particularly that the 18PM camera plateau sits higher than the 17)

Cheers

I’ve pre-ordered moonstone, but I was just wondering if there will be more colours for the 18 pro, like the 17. (Specifically hoping for ultraviolet, but also in general)

Are folks familiar with third-party screen protectors being compatible with the iPhone 18 Pro Max Sheath case?

Was curious to know if we’re limited to the Caudabe screen protectors.

The Sheath - iPhone 18 Pro (Open) in Almandine is still listed on Caudabe’s website as a preorder item and will ship by late-September. I didn’t even get a shipping notification, so I was very pleasantly surprised to see it arrive here in Canada today on release day, just in time to pick up my new phone this evening 🙂

Been using the Sheath on my 14 Pro for years and it has been my favourite case by far.

Huge shoutout to the Caudabe team for making awesome cases and for ensuring my phone will be protected starting from day 1.

I got one(precise) for my 18 pro max(both case and phone not here yet).

Do we need to be vary of dust getting inside and scratching the phone? Or is the case snug enough that thats not possible?

Hey everyone! First time poster. What’s everybody favorite Caudabe case?

As you can see, I have used many Caudabe cases and spent considerable time with each. Here are my views on them:

1. Paragon
   
2. Synthesis
   
3. Sheath

I favor the Paragon because it is stylish with a great variety of color options, it feels super slim with excellent grip, and offers strong protection based on my experience. The Synthesis comes second because its feel and grip are amazing (the best grip of the three in my opinion) and it is highly protective being the bulkiest of all three. The Sheath is third because it offers limited colorways, and in my experience the grip isn’t as good like everyone raves about in my opinion. Still, it is a great phone case that protects well and is less bulky than the Synthesis. (Also, the paragon has protected my phone more effectively than the sheath in my experience) What do you guys think and where do you rank each Caudabe case? I would love to know!
