Okay, first impressions? This case SCREAMS 'look at me' in the best way. That red color is *chef's kiss* - finally something that isn't boring black!
The slide camera cover is genius - protects my lens AND feels satisfying to flick open/closed. Kickstand works great for Netflix binges, though the metal ring took some muscle to pop open initially.
Survived a concrete drop like a champ (raised edges FTW), but heads up - it adds noticeable weight. Like, 'did I accidentally glue a paperweight to my phone?' heavy.
Biggest gripe? That kickstand ring is the ONLY back contact point. Bumped my desk and yeeted my phone across the room. Face-down mode activated!
Bonus: Came with TWO screen protectors (applied bubble-free using the included guide). Wireless charging doesn't work though - dealbreaker for some.
Verdict: 8/10. Perfect if you want max protection + stand functionality, but maybe not for minimalist fans.
