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

Question. When the new iPhone 13 series come out, I assume all the cases for 12 will not work on the 13 and vice versa. If so, even if a new batch of case colors come out, they will not work for my 12 Pro Max. Am I right?
I've been thinking about getting the 12 Pro Max silicon case in cantaloupe, but I'm not in love with it- I've just always been waiting for new colors, but I guess it doesn't matter anymore?

If the rumors are right the 12 cases won’t work for the 13. And Apple is done with producing cases for the 12 lineup. So unfortunately whatever is out is what you have to choose from.
I hear ya. I never liked the cantaloupe color. I used to love pink sand but their “pink” cases this year were orange IMO. I did pick up the cloud blue, pistachio and white and black. Prob the blue and white were my favorites of the bunch.
Yeah, the lineup this year revolved around orange. This is why I haven't purchased anything. My favorite color is Pink Sand as well. I might go for cloud blue or white for my gold 12PM. I'm in SoCal so white always works.
I’m in southern Cali too! But yes white looks great as well as cloud blue! I’ve been using Carved though for a few months and absolutely love their products!
Yeah...I'm with you. I like orange (a lot) but the 12 cases were either too pale (cantaloupe and kumquat) or too red (electric orange). I just want a nice ol' ORANGE case. In the meantime, I swap between Capri blue, cloud blue, or sunflower (stupid Padres).
I’ve been using this bumper for 3 days and it’s okay. It’s slippery, very thin (almost feels like I have no case on), do not interfere with my signal and blends in nicely with the Pacific Blue. I have a glass protector on the back and that helps me to grip it better. There’s a lip in all 4 corners to prevent the camera lens from getting scratched. It actually has started to grow on me, and I can see this being my daily case.

I really love Caudabe cases, but after using bumpers for almost 1.5 months, they are my absolute favorite. They feel like my phone is caseless and they blend in nicely with the Pacific blue color.

I will swap between the saddle brown apple leather case and this one. This is a nodus shell case. Leather is amazing soft, smooth and supple. The buttons aren’t as responsive as apples and it has an open bottom. But the other benefit to this case is it has a built in magnet (different than MagSafe) that works better mounting in a car IMO
While most people are getting ready for the 13 I picked up another Carved live edge.
Pic??
I had asked apple if the 13 lineup cases (silicone) would fit the 12.. they said no. I’m assuming the camera is that much bigger
For screen protectors for 13 pro I bought these and they came today. Looks great.

The 12 rocks with the case on VERY slightly. Almost unnoticeable. The 13 is vastly different and rocks big time.
Are use these for the 12 pro I just had them delivered for my 13 promax. It was by far the best green protector of using any iPhone, as one last of the full year had a fraction of the cost of some of the othersFor screen protectors for 13 pro I bought these and they came today. Looks great.

Its hard to tell from the pic but is the 13 leather any darker shade than the 12 or exactly the same just renamed? Does the quality feel any different?
