So I got home and in spite of requesting a re delivery tomorrow they just shoved it through the letterbox, not that I’m complaining! I actually love it! If it helps anyone, her it is beside ‘white’ and Kumquat’ on a white piece of A4 paper - didn’t quite realise how off white the white is, barely use it to be honest!

The Onyx was the first case I had for my 12 Pro Max and I thought my case search was over quickly. But the way the case shows the frame at the top but not at the bottom drove me nuts.

I still have it and try and use it sometimes, but then I notice that gap at the top and it’s ruined for me.

Ahh I’ve only the standard 12 and never noticed it on this model. Did you ever email them to complain?

I didn’t bother with contacting them because I got the case from Amazon and I’ve seen tons of other people post about the same gap at the top, so I figured that’s just how it’s made. And that may only show up on the 12 Pro Max version, as I don’t feel like I’ve seen anyone post about it on the other phones.

Such a pretty color! I’m loving my Kumquat case. I’m just sorry I waited so long to try a silicone case.
They’re great, aren’t they? Perfect level of slim and grippy. My other cases have collected dust and I’ve just been rotating between my silicones

Anyone purchased the new apple silicone cloud blue case? (Photos please)

Is the phone popping out of the case on the corners like the previous apple silicone, leather cases released for the 12 series?

Hows it look with the pacific blue iPhone.

Can you see a lot of dust and lint on the case?

Well, actually, I bought my second iPhone 12 two months ago, the previous one was broken by falling from the stairs. The screen is completely broken and unusable (cry face).

After that heartbroken experience, I realized that you have to put a hard and good quality phone case for your new phone. So I start to seek a mobile phone case with all-round protection. Then I found Janazan iPhone 12 waterproof case, which supports 360-degree full protection and it no only waterproof, but also shockproof, dust proof.

As its advertisement, this case can stay in 2 meters water up to 30 minutes. And at the same time, it also can anti fall from 2 meters. So I bought that case and still in use till now. I fall my new iPhone with the cases several time, the case work good and my new iPhone 12 never breaks, so far so good.

This is my new case.

Has anyone used the Caudabe Synthesis case with the Spigen screen protector for the iPhone 12 or 12 Pro? I'm wondering if these will work well together. There are some reviews saying the Synthesis doesn't work well with the Flolab screen protector, so I guess it doesn't work with all screen protectors.

The silicone cases are terrible when it comes to lint/dust. The leather cases are awesome if you want a dust/lint free case.
Hmm, I guess I’m lucky and don’t really have that issue, and I have 3 silicone cases so far in my rotation. Got another one coming. We’ll see if it’s more prevalent with the lighter colors.

For me, lint is not a big issue if it were to happen as I haven’t found a case that beats the silicone in grip. So I think i’d sacrifice lint for grip 😂

I actually find the apple leather cases to be as grippy as the silicone cases after a few days using them. 🤔

Already got the baltic blue and black leather cases, plus deep navy silicone, tossing up whether to get the cloud blue silicone case now 🤦‍♂️😂🥺

Would definitely recommend an atom studios phone case. They're silicone options are really good.

...Pacific Blue??

The only blue on the Apple Store here in the UK, for the leather cases is Baltic Blue...??!

I love apple silicone cases. The best case out there in my opinion for IP12 Pro Max. Lint is not an issue if you like to clean your device regularly plus lint issue lasts for 1 or 2 weeks max after that its smooth sailing.

My partner dropped (5.5ft drop) her IP12 on tarmac other day and the case did its job. Yes there is a tear in bottom corner which was expected but the case structure remain intact and protected the iPhone.

Will post pics of both damaged case and new cases tomorrow.
