sweet thanks! Have you ever had a clear/matte case before?

I’ve tried many in the past, but I don’t like how they attract finger prints.

The Ringke Fusion Matte is the only one I have ever have and will keep; it keeps those fingerprints at bay.

I use an Apple leather as a daily case but may mix it up with the fusion at some point

This is a good alternative to the Cyrill which I was going to keep until I discovered the Ringke Fusion

Got the ultra thin case. Just the perfect shade of navy blue 👌

Can any caudabe sheath owners post pics? Want to grab one for the 12 but £30 is expensive if I hate how it looks.

does the ringke add much bulk?

IO had humixx cases on my Xr so probably going to grab a clear case of theirs too.

Damn, I said I wouldn't buy many cases for this phone.

yeah i’ll have to decide what i want to do.
i’m using the same case on my 7+ since the day i got it. Tumi. nice case but it started falling apart haha There’s not much local. i was just at target and saw that apple has a clear hard case. But don’t really like that there’s a circle on the back for magsafe

So i was just looking at the caudabe sheath on youtube and saw it’s a flexible case. i do NOT want something like that. the cons of buying online and not being able to see in person. Good thing i do research.
 
Do all the Mous cases for the 12 Pro Max have the "Banana Boat" curve?

Want to order a couple but not if they have the "Banana Boat" problem. 😩

Sheath and Apple Leather are usually my combo. I also got a Veil this year. Debating over whether or not I’m going to get Apple Leather case this year. I’m not thrilled that they raised the price on an already expensive case.

What do you think of the Veil?

Seems like it’s the same design as last years model. I think @Sal09 purchased a couple and mous didn’t want to initiate a return.

I got one for my 11 pro about a month ago lol, wasn't bent but the buttons were stiff, it weighed a tonne and just about broke the phone getting it off, my first and last mous case.

Had about 50 different cases for my old 11 Pro Max and the Caudabe Sheath was one of my favorite out of the bunch.
The fit, finish, feel and Grip were absolutely fantastic. Can't go wrong with the Sheath.

I had about the same for my Xr. Including the sheath but tbh I found it really slippy despite its claims of great grip.

But I did love the fit and the protection with minimal bulk.

I have both. I love the Sheath. Had one on my iPhone X most of the time. It's all I need for a case, good grip, overall protection, tactile buttons, easy to put on / take off, and slim. I ordered mine way ahead of the iPhone, but as shipping to Europe takes around 3 weeks, I had to get something to protect my phone, so I got the plum silicone case and the transparent magsafe case from Apple.

I am somehow disappointed with Apple's cases this year. The plum is lovely, overall very good protection, but it's a lint magnet no matter how often you wipe it clean. Also, hand oil tends to form stains that are difficult to get off, even when wiping it clean.

So to choose between the Apple silicone and the Sheath, I'd go with the Sheath any time. They are both very similar but I have the impression the silicon will age way faster.

The Apple transparent case was a huge disappointment. It is nowhere as elegant as the Sheath or the silicone case, it has thick lips and is open at the bottom. It is extremely slippery and a nightmare to put on/take off. I sent it back within a couple of days. If I want a transparent case, I'll get it from Spigen or Caudabe.

So for now, my vote goes to the Sheath. But I decided to give Apple another chance and ordered one of their new leather cases, incoming on Tuesday. I used to love the Apple leather cases on my iPhone X, so I hope it'll be a nice alternative to my Sheath once in a while.

Thanks for your reply. I returned the Apple silicone case and got the Apple leather case. I think the Apple leather case is the best case ever made. It’s slim and light. It’s not slippery like the previous Apple leather cases. Nice premium feel. Ive also canceled my caudabe sheath order. I’m sticking with the Apple leather case and the catalyst vibe until I can get my hands on the evutec.
 
Just purchased the Torras case

Picked up the Mous Limitless 3.0 in black leather. It had the signature banana boating but apart from that I quite like it. Let’s hope I don’t have any future to contact their CS lol

I gave up on rocking the Apple leather case as my daily because every time I pulled it out of my pocket the bottom right hand corner of my phone had popped out of the case.

Great thanks! Damn the max cases are still pre-orders. Will definitely order from these guys though as you say the wait from Caudabe direct is painful
