Bought (preoredered) Catalyst Premium edition in red colour. Dont mind 2 hands requirement, as I always use 2 hands for handling Airpods Pro anyway. :D

i received the uag hard case. it’s is very nice and protective, but makes the app feel huge. almost like carrying the powerbeats pro. i think i’ll now order a twelve south leather case. seems more firm fitted but also good protection.
Mine should be here soon (with a hefty customs fee probs :confused:).

It looks like it'll do a great job of protecting.

I'm still using and liking the Spigen Rugged case but I'm not keen on the open hinge cutouts they need for functionality.

It arrived today and it's very protective but a bit clunky to use.

Will keep it on for now but I feel I'll be putting the Spigen Rugged back on soon and keeping the UAG for the rare occasion it'll be useful.

No way to tell when you would get it. Try contacting Catalyst directly. They are the only ones that would know. I did just notice they changed their website to say.... Flame Red & Navy Blue are for pre-order only. Shipping end of January. Yesterday when I checked it was saying all the colors were preorder and would not ship until late Jan. So if you want the black, it may ship sooner. But again, only Catalyst would know the exact shipping date for sure.

My Twelve South Air Snap Pros came in today. I took some unboxing pics below. Overall quality is good but not great, the leather could have been of higher quality. The fit and finish was superb, nice and snug. It was actually surprisingly slim, it was slightly slimmer than my previous white gel case. I included a pic of that was well.

for the UAG, i store mine in pockets when I fly, ipad pro case, etc. Rarely are they just around, so they need the crush and drop protection in my world. finally someone got this right.

I bought the Incase Woolenex from Apple. It's a nice case. I had Nomad case's in the past and I think I like this one better. I was waiting on the Nomad case but think I'll pass now.

Curious, did you own the original AirSnap? I ask because I have the same color AirSnap Pro you do and thought the same thing, that the quality of the leather was subpar. That's not how it was on the teal AirSnap case I have for the previous model. My Pro case is already unraveling near where the flap overlaps.
