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

I was wondering about the Ringke Fusion matte...
I currently use the clear one but I don’t like the sides of it because they capture air bubbles and that pretty much ruins the look of the polishes steel frame...
I like the ringke one apart from that...
especially how it raises the bezels high enough to not touch the table even with an applied screen protector... (that’s my problem with the clear ESR one...)

so I am now half heartedly looking for a new clear case...

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.

Leather Limitless still suffers with Banana Boat issues @Hooterville. Even the replacement they sent me was worse. I could not be bothered arguing and returning so I sold them on eBay. I've given up on Mous plus they were very tight to take off.

I’ve been lurking around this thread for some time now and I just gotta ask...

How is it that this card holder seems so popular? I couldn’t dream of using one myself but hey, we’re all different. How come it’s so popular, don’t you guys use Apple Pay? Personally, I don’t even bring physical cards with me since a couple of years now.

I just felt I need to ask, I’m truly curious.

Depends on the use case, I guess... Yes, most of the time I use Apple Pay (hello pandemic)... But there are still some cards I have to carry with me regularly. (ID and driver's license just to name two)..

However, I don't think I could trust this little magnetic thing, there are too many reviews that show how easily it can detach...

Has anyone been able to compare the Apple Leather Case and the ESR Leather Case? I am still debating on whether to go premium, but they seem very similar. Haven't found a comparison online either...

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

How do you buy something that is over $100 with no card? Can’t be done here.

I have no limits at all when using Apple Pay, none that I've reach yet anyway. Spent way more than $100 in a single purchase.

Yeah it’s a good point. I’m not one to make my phone bulkier than it needs to be. & for the rare times I need a card (license) I just carry it with me for that trip.

I think people love to jump on the Apple train for the sake of it, & as ugly as these wallets are, they’ll sell well because Apple.

Yeah, you may have a point there. Myself, I want to carry as few physical cards as possible and the only card I have left that I can't leave at home is my drivers license, since my country don't have digital drivers licenses yet.

I have the sheath, smartish grip but waiting on replacements and also the incipio grip. I am now waiting for a bunch on UAG cases.

What do you think of the Veil?
Click to expand...

I like it. The grip is not as good as the Sheath, but that’s expected. It has much less material to use for grip/texture. I wish it didn’t have a lip around the screen, like with the 11 Pro ones. I guess they can’t do it without a lip because of the new phone design with flat edges.

Overall, I very pleased with it. I don’t expect it to do much for drops. I just want it for scratch protection.

My Mujjo leather case came the other day. I'll post pics of it later if I remember. It looks and feels very nice!

I am thinking of getting the Green silicone match the Graphite iPhone 12 Pro Max.

For my second case, I am confused between the Baltic Blue and black leather case. Can you suggest me which apple leather case will go better with them Graphite iPhone 12 Pro Max? Baltic Blue or the Black?

later I will probably go with the Saddle Brown Sleeve for my Graphite iPhone 12 Pro Max

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.

50?! I thought I was bad with 20....

They’re supposed to be like that aren’t they? I rather like the bend.

They aren't talking about the low lip in the center. They are talking about how the case can be banana shaped when you don't have a phone in it. Not really an issue when you put the phone in but makes people mad for a $50 folded case.

Also buttons on some cases haven't worked well this year. And only an issue for some, the speaker holes don't match the phone. Not an issue but again $50

Ah right. gotcha. The stiff buttons are the reason I don’t buy their cases anymore.
