MORE THAN A HEAD-TURNER, BUT IT’S THAT TOO
ELEGANCE, ENGINEERED
El protector es una representación fiel de la imagen promocional. Se trata del modelo Parangon en tono Moonstone, cuya estructura destaca por bordes grises de alta rigidez, de tacto rústico que garantizan un ajuste firme seguro y ergonómico, aunque demandan precisión al colocarlo o retirarlo, mientras que la parte posterior es suave al tacto de un acabado blanco, con una pureza similar a la de una superficie satinada, revela sutiles destellos perlados bajo la luz, aportando una estética premium que rompe con la monotonía de los colores oscuros tradicionales. Finalmente, los botones de aluminio proporcionan una respuesta táctil impecable, y el relieve perimetral —especialmente en los extremos superior e inferior— asegura la estabilidad del dispositivo al apoyarlo sobre la pantalla.
The case is a faithful representation of its promotional imagery. This is the Parangon model in Moonstone, featuring high-rigidity grey edges with a textured, rugged feel that ensures a firm, secure, and ergonomic grip—though they require precision when installing or removing the device. In contrast, the back is smooth to the touch with a white finish of satin-like purity, revealing subtle pearlescent glimmers under the light. This creates a premium aesthetic that breaks away from the monotony of traditional dark colors. Finally, the aluminum buttons provide an impeccable tactile response, and the raised perimeter—particularly at the top and bottom edges—ensures the device remains stable when placed face down.
Tested the Sheath & the Paragon for the Iphone 16 base model. Both are really well made cases. The Paragon feels (!!) a little bit slimmer and lighter, although both weigh nearly the same. But the Paragon feels more pleasant in the hand if you're holding your phone over a long time.
The grip on the sides is perfect and the smooth texture on the backplate feels really good.
Magsafe is better than the original Apple Cases & the Moonstone color looks pretty great with the Ultramarine iPhone.
I ordered from Germany (they are not available here) and both cases arrived well in less than two weeks.
I've testet round about 20-25 cases since last September, and the Paragon & Sheath are way the best way to go for your iPhone.
Great feel with hold fast material design. Color carries over to phone face allowing me to find my phone in the usual ‘sea’ of black items!
The best phone cover I ever had
I like the texture on the edges of this case, which makes it easy to grip. The integration of the various buttons on the iPhone is really well done. It feels solid and protective.
The Ember color is really cool, and the case quality is the best I've had. I love the light sandpaper texture around the edge, and the smooth satin back. The fit is really nice and tight, and the raised lip in the corners are so precise, it comes just past the glass to protect it from drops, but you literally almost need a magnifying glass to see it, you can barely even feel it.
It feels and looks as the site and reviews described. The texture on the sides is helpful to feel confident in holding the phone. The color is rich, easy to spot the phone in a dark spot. For something you use every day, the cost for a high quality case is a justifiable splurge. Looks and feels great.
Maybe the best case I have owned. Good grip and generally a comfortable feel. I went with the orange to make it easy to find. Most cases do not carry the color to the edge. This design does to even with the black screen up the edges still show. I was looking for a second case but wanted a different bright color. The only other color is the eucalyptus which is not at all bright. The lack of other bright colors/colors in general is my only negative comment. The order was processed quickly and arrive quickly. Very pleased.
I spent quite a bit of time researching cases for my new iPhone, and though this brand came up only once and was not available on Amazon, I felt good about it. But I did not want to spend $50 on a phone case. Though thankfully I haven’t dropped it yet, it’s clearly great quality and feels sleek and sturdy in my hand. My husband has had every case made and he commented on the quality. I feel it’s worth the extra money and would recommend. It charges in the wireless pad in my car as well.
Case is great! Sturdy, stylish, and a little shinier on the back than I expected from the photos but I don't mind. I cannot recommend Caudabe enough, just based on how much they helped me in the shipment process. I initially put the wrong address, and they sent me a new case for free, and when that had shipping issues, they sent me another free of charge. Their customer support responded to my emails quickly and graciously. Great company!!
I don't upgrade phones very often, so I've only had three cases in the last ten years. But so far, this one has been my favorite. It has taken a while to get used to the the gritty texture on the sides, but now I'm glad to have it - it really inspires confidence that the phone won't slip out of my hand. And while I can't verify any drop-protection claims, it feels sturdy enough that I'm not concerned about day-to-day handling or small drops. I also like that it's not bulky. It may not be the thinnest profile on the market, but I think it strikes the right balance between low-profile and sturdy. I was a little worried about the cut out for the camera control, but it doesn't feel like a weak point. I don't really use that button, but it does work in case that's a concern. The other external buttons work well, and if it's important to you, can be swapped for different colors. And while color is a personal preference, I really like the gray edges with the white backing. I was initially worried that the color combined with a smooth finish would show scratches, but this has not been the case. I've been really impressed with how the finish has held up, and I'm hoping this will be the case indefinitely. I think star-rating systems are weird, but I don't have any reasons to deduct a star, so I've listed this case as a five. On a different note, I added the screen protectors when I placed the order, which I've ultimately come to love despite some initial setbacks. I'll be posting my review after submitting this one in case you're interested. Best of luck in your case shopping.
The purple/blue camera peeks thru the orange case. My phone will easy to find on black tables.
love the green color. Fits perfectly so no button hindrance. Seems very sturdy but also lightweight and slim.
The Orange case was right up my alley. The case fits my 16 perfectly. Feels very comfortable in my hand. I love the smoothness of the case and the texture on the side to hold it. I will definitely buy from them again in the future.
My last phone I bought a cheap case, broke my phone, and regretted it. This case is worth the money.
I’ve purchased far too many cases trying to find the right fit for my iPhone 16. I had a Sheath for my iPhone 13 Pro that still looked like new 3 years on but wanted to shop around a bit as I found my old phone and case combo annoyingly heavy. After cycling through half a dozen options from other brands, where did I find myself? Back with Caudabe. I bought the Paragon in Ember and am really happy with it. Lighter than the Sheath I had and the metal buttons really are a standout. Works great with MagSafe as well.
You can always no you are going to get a good fitting case with caudabe and good customer service and I would order again from them
The case is high quality and fits perfectly. I like the grips on the sides, which makes it easier to hold without slipping.
My only real gripe is that the color Ember is orange and the back panel is a lighter and brighter orange than the sides. I wish Ember was red.
Ordered in Ember color, love the look, feel and design. Supports pop-socket on back with easy.
