Yes! I think they have better drop protection too. This Apple silicone tho is nice for square sides tho. Feels super comfy!
I like the clear case. I just ordered it. Thank you for the suggestion.

^ DING DING DING!!! "I WAS IN THE POOL!" lol ... you got my reference! Congrats!
Thanks! It's Cal Poly Pomona. If you've ever came down from LV into Los Angeles, you would have passed this up on the 10 freeway.Nice shots! Name of the location please.
You need to upgrade ur WiFi game girrrlllll. LolI thought 5G wasn’t out in my area but apparently it is. The speeds are faster than LTE but it don’t feel like much to me.
I think I prefer the 12 Pro. I want to love the Max but it’s too big for me.So everyone round here still happy with their purchase(s)??
Welcome to the iPhone club !Picked up my iPhone 12 Pro Max 256GB Graphite on AT&T yesterday at noon at Best Buy. Migrated from Android to iOS and had a Zagg tempered glass screen protector installed. Had to AT&T to register my Pro Mac yesterday. Called AT&T to update my wireless plan for 5G this morning.
I Second the Spigen EZ Fit screen protectors. I’ve used them on several phones and they’re awesome.After all of the cases I bought, I’m sticking with 5. All the rest went back.
- Ringke Fusion: wearing this one now. This is the best clear case out of all that I tried, including Spigen, elago, and totallee. It has the right amount of grip without being too thick or thin. It also has a minimal raise at each of the corners so if you want to put the phone face down, you don’t have to worry. Like it so much, I ordered the Ringke Glitter version to have a second case with bit of sparkle.
- I also kept the peacock case, the Kate Spade sparkle case, the wine-red TPU case, and the blue marble case.
Apple cases:
- I‘m exchanging the Baltic Blue case for the California Poppy. This will be an interesting pairing with the Pacific Blue. Too bad there isn’t a more orange version in the leather, then I can rep the Bears.
- I‘m waiting for the Kumquat and Plum cases to arrive (Amazon said they were delayed??), but I’m not sure if those will be keepers for me. If they end up being dust magnets, they are going back. Silicone is either slick, a dust magnet, or both, but I do like the colors so I’m giving them a shot.
Screen Protectors
I originally bought iCarez through some early recommendations that I saw. They were okay applying to DH’s 12 Pro, but I messed up the first to get the second right. Constant wiping to fingerprints and I don’t have oily hands.
Saw recommendations for Spigen. I was skeptical because I don’t like their cases, but I decided to try those out the screen protectors for my 12 Pro Max... Flawless application on the first try. So easy to apply. Very smooth feel. It’s not thick like the iCarez (you’d have to see both to understand). Best part, it doesn’t show a new fingerprint nearly every time I touch the screen. These will be my new screen protectors going forward. Already ordered more to have on hand just in case.

I'm floored at how good the camera is, with the exception of crazy bad lens flare. Other than that, it's good. I probably could have continued on my iPhone X, but I really missed the size of the old Plus, and the camera is just butter.So everyone round here still happy with their purchase(s)??
Wow thank you for all of this info. I too got the icarez and struggled to apply the first one as well. How funny!After all of the cases I bought, I’m sticking with 5. All the rest went back.

I’ll have to check out the Spigen protectors. Thanks for the links.
looks like I won't actually know until Monday, but I am assuming I'll like it...I love the pro Max. The pacific blue color has even grown on me more. I don’t regret buying it at all.
I think I would’ve been fine if I went XS Max directly to 12 Max but after trying the 12 Pro I can’t seem to get used to the Max again.I tried the 12 Pro for a couple of days just to be sure, but I found it to be too small. I lIke the Pro’s size for what it is, but no go for me. I’ve been Plus/Max since Apple started with the 6+ so that’s probably why only the large size feels right to me.
