I appreciate the honesty in this video. Pointed out a few issues that may be deal breakers for people and offered solutions. Thanks guys, been a long time fan of your work!
Request: can you please show how well it can hold an iPhone Max to the Belkin MagSafe Car mount? I want to update my Nomad case to this because at present I am having to take my phone out to attach it. I held off moving to an iPhone case, we all know Nomad case quality hoping for a Nomad option. I care nothing for that charging option but the mount is amazing.
Hey, no video on that right now, but our creative director uses the two every day and reports the same strength you see with the Apple case or a naked iPhone 12
How big are the lip around the screen edge? I have got a screen protector on and I'd like it if the edges are raised above the screen protector. I have sent emails to your support but no one is replying.
can't wait for active rugged case with magsafe line up. too bad bought the rugged case without the magsafe december last year, but really love the patina though 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I like the natural color of the leather (since it will darken patina)on the Natural but would be nice to have the TPU bumper in black rather than white. The black bumper fades into the black screen.
Sadly I bought a non 12 pro Max case from you. I would have waited if I knew. I don’t even use it cause all my charges are on MagSafe devices even tried to add magnets but never worked
I would be all over this case if you guys just used asymmetrical bottom cutouts like Apples. With those large, long bottom cutouts, dust could accumulate over time. I also don't understand why there has to be a cutout for the lanyard holes. This should be just built in to the TPU(Catalyst, Moment) as opposed to a long cutout that will just cause dust, debris and inevitably hairline scratches on the stainless steel of the pros. Hope you guys change up the design in the future, as this looks like a solid case otherwise.
@@NomadGoodsThank you for the quick response and I appreciate your honesty and transparency in this video. I understand that some brands prefer the symmetry, but why use cutouts(allowing more vulnerability to dust, debris, and scratches) for lanyard holes. Take the Catalyst, a brand that uses holes that don't expose the stainless steel. Even Moment has a built in lanyard hole as opposed to cutouts utilized as a lanyard hole. I really think this case has great potential, though any exposure to dust and debris can hurt the longevity of the phone.
Has anyone tried the case? Is the magnet as strong as the MagSafe in the Apple Silicon Case? Does the folio case have the same MagSafe magnet? I have been using the Otterbox Strada and even though it will charge with a MagSafe charger the magnet is not very strong and it takes some fidgeting to get aligned properly. The magnet in the Apple Silicon case is very strong and aligns perfectly. I am hoping this Nomad case will have a strong magnet like the Apple cases but have the folio cover as well.
Will these work with the Belkin car vent mount and boost charge pro 3-in-1? Is the magnet strong enough to support the phone while it is in a vertical orientation?

Yes, and the massive cutouts. Like catalyst they should move their eyelets to the bumper, not in a cutout. If those were fixed, I'm sure many more would purchase the case. Some consumers don't even need a lanyard or wrist strap, so the eyelet is not always necessary. It's not worth for some to have their expensive phone's stainless steel frame exposed just for an eyelet. I would jump right on this case if these things were fixed. There's a reason Apple uses asymmetrical cutouts, due to exposure to the very sensitive stainless steel.
@@mmaged2287 feeling regret bought two rugged cases(non magsafe and magsafe version) for this year..that gap annoying me a lots..i dont understand how they unable to fix that gap..no more nomad for me after this..and they refund 20% only for that defect case..that's suck..!
These people are jerks. The case I got was nowhere close to the video. Don’t be fooled by their “horween leather” gimmick. The case has very little resemblance to real leather and the quality is subpar. It is bulky and the buttons are not aligned and it’s difficult to use. Feel cheated, so disappointed!
I love the transparency of how the MagSafe charger became a little bit darker because of the case 👍. Makes me trust the brand even more. Thanks
Totally agree!

@@NomadGoods Thanks for confirming this, my new Nomad magsafe case is on its way and I look forward to using it.
NOMAD is always synonym of quality!
Thanks!
Works with base station pro?

These look great. Just need to justify swapping it out with the original rugged case I bought for the 12 pro Max. :)
Check your email. I also bought the original rugged and today they sent me a 50% off code to upgrade to the magsafe variety.

Definitely getting brown soon!
Top notch leather.
Worst buttons ever. ( volume up/down. Power button.)
Please, please, please, please, please make awesome Rugged cases support Moment Lenses. Thank you!! (heart)
coming soon
@@NomadGoods Will this be a nomad to moment converter or a completely different case? Thanks.

appreciate the feedback!
I’m patiently waiting for my iPhone 12 pro max rugged case. :)
how is it?
A thin leather case with button cutouts would be swell. Your current offering has lovely leather but the plastic and bulk is too much
That style of case would look nice. We think Apple nailed it with a slim leather case
@@NomadGoods I agree with choco, if guys could maybe do an all round leather case would be awesome🙈
@@NomadGoods yes we need a thinner option
My eyes cant stop stare at the gap at the top of this case..🧐
Is the active rugged case coming for the iPhone 12 pro anytime soon? Nothing on the website.
No plans for the active case this year unfortunately
@@NomadGoods what’s the difference between the active rugged case and the modern case
The only weak point of this case is button, it's not clicky and hard to press.
Sadly I bought a non 12 pro Max case from you. I would have waited if I knew. I don’t even use it cause all my charges are on MagSafe devices even tried to add magnets but never worked
Hey Anthony, you should have received an upgrade email from us. Let me know if you did not

How well does it protect the camera lenses, front screen, and how well does it do with drops?
Good, great, and fantastic

Ours is engineered to function within the same tolerances as the Apple case. So, in essence, it should have the same function and magnetic feel
Any plans for a Shell Cordovan version? I would be interested in one.
i would kill for Shell Cordovan Color #8 Reversed Nomad Rugged case.

Any chance of having a moment lens version?

mayyyybe

I’m doing well❤️
I bought the rugged leather a case for my iPhone 12 pro, mine has no circle? Will this work with magsafe?
It will work for charging, but not have a strong magnetic connection
Does it have alignment magnet element inside?
yes
MagSafe battery in the plans?
We're exploring a bunch of fun ideas. :)
