Looks like external dimensions are different, so they’re mechanically incompatible. With iPhones, mechanical dimensions are so close together that cases are 1-2 generations backwards compatible.

Compared to the price of a phone, cases are fairly cheap. Is the ability to reuse a case important for other reasons?
Mechanical dimensions being close together definitely is. It’s a PITA when phones grow but your 3D printed cases don’t.
I’d say reducing waste is important.
