Which Case Did You Get For Your New iPhone 12/Mini/Pro/Max? [Merged]

[Robbosan]

I am tempted to get the Airpods Pro, but dunno if I would like them. Kind of sucks. The Max looks good but dang the price!

Yeah, over ear only suit me. I will be selling my beats studio 3 to help and a few other things, checkout iJustine review on the SG AirPods max, pushed me over the line lol.
I buy and sell a few iPhones when I can get a good deal so it helps, got a 12 128gb new for $900AUD before xmas and flipped it on eBay with free fees for $1325 same day.

I think I’m sticking with the Sheath as my daily driver for now.

that's all I am using now

Wow that is awesome. I will check out her review for sure. Why did you not like the Airpods Pro?

 

[Hooterville]

That's cool. Why do most cases suck this year? Lately I am on the hunt for new earbuds vs. cases lol.

The Grip case is an excellent case but it's harder to remove than the Symmetry.
If you drop your phone in the Grip case I can guarantee you it will not pop out of the case.

I believe cases sucking has a lot to do with the squared off edges of the phone

Sounds like Robbosan has the same issue I do with both the regular Airpods and Airpod Pros. I absolutely love my Pros, but I’ll be damned if the left one just doesn’t want to stay in my ear. I’ve tried different tip sizes, moving it around, everything. But I can just be sitting on the couch and out it comes.

I’m going to try some Comply foam tips next, but my favorite wireless buds so far have been my Samsung Buds+. Those things are rock solid and have never tried falling out. They work great with my 20 Ultra (obviously), Pixel 4a 5G, and 12 Pro Max. I love them.

Nice. Maybe I should look at those and save home money. Thanks!

I couldn't get a good fit with any of the size tips, I use one aipod in right ear for calls, walking dog and going to sleep at night haha. Left one is new, even tried the tape trick but nah falls out.

But what is a decent case from them?

But what is a decent case from them?

Saggy bottom Monarch, Pathfinder or Civilian.

I'm tempted to try the Metropolis LT with the leather back ?

Just checked it out. It does look pretty nice.

 

[Robbosan]

What's with the bigger horns now with UAG seem to have grown.

Mous case finally in today. Ordered from Best Buy so I would get the retail packaging instead of the Mous cardboard box. Took 14 days to receive from Best Buy The case had a very slight banana boat bow (not fidget spinner status) out of the box. This case is much improved over last years version.
Getting the phone into the case is about equal to the crowbar Symmetry.
The fit, feel, finish and overall appeal of the case is top notch. The buttons finally work fantastic, sides are a little slippery and it still suffers with the symmetrical cutouts which drive me insane. The max version lays nice and flat on the table as the camera protection is decent. I'm really liking this case until the KFC greasy fingerprints start showing up on the back. Here are some pics:

That looks great. I wish they did this design but much slimmer though and with just magsafe magnets.

My Cyrill Color Brick hasn’t arrived yet, but I’m surprised to see how much weight it adds compared to the Sheath. I watched Technically Tee’s review on it, and when he mentions that it doesn’t add a ton of bulk, but one can definitely tell there’s a case on the phone, I guess he meant it.

One reason i like the sheath under 30 grams, 26 for iP12.

On an impulse buy, bought another apple saddle brown for my 12. I tried canceling before it shipped (next day) through Amazon, but it shipped anyway. Used it for about 15 seconds then initiated another return. Surprisingly, this case fits a lot more snug than my first saddle brown for the 12. The corners, top, bottom and sides are decently raised and seemingly wrap onto the screen.

Pitaka Mag Pro arrived early this am. Pictures attached. Smallest camera cutout ever on any phone. ?

Proper cutouts, firm tpu all positives. Not sure how the back will maintain from smudges and fingerprints. Also, decent grip but nothing noticeable

 

[AE14]

this is the camera cutout.

Hi,

Can you please share pics of the bottom.
Thinking of getting the whole kit but cant find pics of the bottom on their website.

Sal

Here you go.

 

[althaur]

Does the case easy to peel off? or it fits perfectly? i am tempted to get one

Fits great.

 

[Hooterville]

this is the camera cutout.

Is it a keeper or another return?

Is it a keeper or another return?

For $50 likely a return. Also makes the 12 pro very long.

 

[VaderRulez]

Here you go.

What case it that?

 

[VaderRulez]

Thinking of getting a Sheath for the 12PM. Are the early issues with this case now fixed?
