The poetic affinity case is great . It's better than the unicorn beetle subcase and the ringke case too. UB scratches way to easy . The ringke is good but the poetic has like a honeycomb look to the back with the same black around it. Also the poetic is firm and it's design doesn't scratch . It's screen protector friendly too.. I've got all three but got the poetic last ..here's pics think you can tell poetic one

I've heard complaints that it's very slippery?
Seems about on par with my Pixel 2/3XL's cloth-covered case. Not the grippiest, but I haven't had issues - for full disclosure I do have a loopy loop installed on mine (post for reference) so it never gets out of my hand, but I didn't have the case modified until a week or so after getting it, and I didn't find it too slippery. Honestly the weight of the phone is what made it slide out of my grip the most.

It has excellent grip whoever told you otherwise is a fool.... I've had it in since day one and it's great not slippery at all. looks good, feels good, and has great protection I've used it on my op6 and now this device. It never disappoints..... Unless you keep your hands covered in crisco all the time.... Don't be a Butterfingers it's very simple

I love the rhino shield bumpers. But I don't suggest you pre-order from the website. The last time I pre-ordered from them it was released to Amazon on the exact same day my case was shipped. With the Rhinoshield website i had to pay shipping and it took about 5 days or so to receive. Had i bought it from Amazon prime, it would have been free shipping and i would have gotten it in 2 days.

Not a bumper case but the OnePlus carbon fiber (made by Evutec) IMHO is the best for thin and adequate protection. I love (Evutec) cases, wish they made more models. It's a bit pricey but worth it. Even with months of use (iPhone XS Max), the case wipes off and looks new.


I got mine at the TMO store but I believe it's this one:


https://www.oneplus.com/product/oneplus-7-pro-protective-case


There probably are thinner ones but protection factor goes way down from there.

It's not slippery, but it isn't very grippy either. I own both the Nylon OnePlus bumper and Ringke Fusion X camo. The sides of the nylon case feel like a smooth hard plastic, which doesn't offer much grip or protection. The sides of the Ringke case feel a little more "rubbery" which offers a little more grip and protection. However, the nylon case is much better quality. It is a very tight nylon stitch , with a felt inner.

I change between the two depending on my day/mood. If I'll be out and about constantly taking out my phone for photos or gaming on the go, I'd probably use the Ringke for that extra protection. Most regular days I'll use the nylon for it's slim profile and premium feel.

This.

Also, like I've mentioned before, the buttons can be a bit stiff for some. I have to slice into the sides of the buttons with a razor in order to make them more "clicky" like buttons on a Spigen case.

Rhinoshield refuse to admit their buttons are too stiff.

I use the casemate case sold through TMobile. It's a bit thicker but the glass back on the device leaves much to be desired.
