First time since I bought the Bellroy case that I'm using my clear Ringke..

Just bought these two cases on eBay. The main reason is because I have been using a Handl clip on the back of my Ringke Fusion case and there are days that I don't want to have it on the back. I've been trying to get used to it but I'm not sure I like it very much. I also bought a magnetic car mount for my car and this Handl clip won't work with it. I always like having one clear case and a couple of other cases for my phone. I don't really love the Handl car mount either.

Nice. I'm all about buying cheap cases. Whenever I have a clear case on, the dust that gets stuck under it annoyed me.

I tried out the Caseology Nano Pop case, which I received free from the Amazon Vine program (in exchange for an unbiased review). Caseology is pretty much the only well-known case maker that was available through this program -- the others were Chinese manufacturers with those alphabet-soup brand names like SUVHIAL (I literally just mashed the keyboard for that one).

Definitely a solid, sturdy case, with a nice visual pop from the yellow trim around the camera. I was afraid the material would be too slippery, but it's actually fine, especially after handling it for a while -- but the downside is that the back collects fingerprints pretty easily. The lower half of both side edges has a nice roughened texture that improves grip. There's also a lanyard hole, essential to me for travel.

I also thought this would be way too bulky, and although it is slightly wider than the X-Level microfiber case, it still feels totally manageable.

How's the side protection? Some case will expose it while covered top and bottom. Any cut out for antenna?

Side protection will almost always be suboptimal for these phones with a curved screen, since they want to make sure they're not blocking any image at the edge, or the ability to touch it there. This case is about flush with the screen along the sides, so it's a little more protection than other cases I've seen.

There is no cutout for the mmWave 5G antenna at the top. I don't think there's much mmWave in my area on T-Mobile, so it's hard to tell if this has any impact. It'd be interesting to hear if anyone has any definitive evidence that a cutout there helps with mmWave reception.

Sorry no The phone is in the case. Looks exactly like the pic above. Maybe a little darker because I have the black 7PRO.

On the Belroy for a 7 Pro, is the screen slightly recessed into the case so the sides stick up a bit around the screen such that it provides screen protection when the phone is placed placed "screen down" on a flat surface?

The top and bottom have a very small lip but helps when placing the phone face down ..case is very slim so minimal all around but tight fit

I went with Athlex version. The grip is better than most I tested.
