@jamesthomson They should have gone with High Mesa to be more on brand with the California naming of macOS.

@jamesthomson Honestly, at least this one might not slip off of every surface I ever put my phone on…

@jamesthomson “Plateau” tested better than “moose knuckle” with focus groups.

I can't wait for "mesa," "massif" and "tectonic plate."

It will be the Camera Butte on the 18promax!

I’m glad it is made of metal too - my 15promax has a spiderwebbed glass back from a strike through the case at the top edge of the bump.

I sealed the entire phone into its case with removable sealant glue - looking forward to the butte when I replace it next year.
