Did you notice that you can’t fit a Lightning charger through the cut out either? I’ve tried three different brands and even the OEM Apple one which is slightly thinner than Anker’s and it still won’t fit. What a launch for Torras.
Interesting. Caudabe told me it was only the Navy ones...at least I’m fairly sure that’s what they said.
My apple saddle brown went back today as well as my apple silicone. My only case lineup is the natural Nomad. It’s been great so far and it’s already aging well. And I’m also with you, if I want to switch it up, I’ll order the rustic brown.
Looks like we ordered opposites! I definitely recommend the brown if you want a second case, it looks great.
I didn’t try. The second I saw it didn’t even fit the phone I put right back in the box.Did you notice that you can’t fit a Lightning charger through the cut out either?

I’ve had the brown on my xr and 11 pro. They definitely look awesome!
Got in my phone today and don't have a single case in the house for it
I'm going to have to start a GoFund me page so I can get a few cases.

I would suggest you sell the phone and use the money to GoFund a few cases...Got in my phone today and don't have a single case in the house for it

Same issue here. I ordered a few other types of cases from them and they fit better, but I like the super slim ones the best. I would imagine that gets fixed soon enough, have never had that issue with them on other phones.
Who are you?! This isn’t the same Hooterville from last year. 😢Got in my phone today and don't have a single case in the house for it

I got an Otter + Pop case for my 12PM. So glad they finally made the clear stardust version!! It looks gorgeous on my gold iPhone!!

Also disappointed with my nomad rugged case. The top is bowed up so you can see the case.
I went to Best Buy and got an insignia slim case. Thin, grippy and seems like a slightly thicker version of the Torras.
Happy with it so far.

That’s the same case I’m using. It’s really similar to the Meifigno case on Amazon, but it’s got a bit better grip and I like that the buttons are gray instead of black on the Meifigno.
It’s the only case I’ve tried so far that I actually like. I didn’t like the silicone or leather Apple cases I tried, the Ringke Onyx I got sagged at the bottom (but was perfect otherwise), and a couple of other cases just didn’t work for me.
The good news is that this is saving me a ton of money on cases this time around.
That's a new one for them, must of got real unlucky.
No problem with my 12 black caudabe, phone locks in tight have noticed the buttons have got real nice after a week of use.
after removing the case once, ive noticed super fine scratches on the sides. they are veryyyy fine but its ALL over the phone lol. i have never used the phone naked so im assuming it all came from the case. have you checked if the same thing happened to yours?
I picked up a few for my 12 mini that I got today.
Spigen Liquid Crystal (clear): Picked this fairly early on just because it was cheap and I enjoyed some of the older Spigen cases.
Tech21 Evo Check (Blue): Got it at Target, a bit bulkier, but similar in idea to the Liquid Crystal. It's got grippier sides and you can swap out buttons for black or green. I had the old Belkin Grip Candy Sheer for my iPhone 5 (and later SE) and the quasi-vintage iMac blue and similar TPU design had me interested to check it out.
Both of these seem a bit tough to put on/remove, but I think it's more the design of these phones and how the cases attach. I think I was sort of expecting something like a 5/5S/SE, but the lack of a chamfered edge makes the cases fit bit more snugly and not willing to come off unless you work a corner off.
Apple Leather Case (Baltic Blue): It seems like most other Apple leather cases and has been discussed enough here. The closed-bottom reminds me of the iPhone 5S leather case and I don't mind the lack of a cutout. I'll probably use the top two more for now due to being able to use various wipes/disinfectants that might hurt leather.
I'm using an ESR glass screen protector and it's been fine enough after a few hours of use. One corner didn't want to stick real well after a few attempts to retrieve loose debris, but I didn't feel like making another attempt tonight.

My mom is looking for a nice leather case for her 12 pro max. Anyone have any suggestions besides the apple one?
Mujjo (£40 similar to quality to Apple but a bit chunkier) or ESR (£20 very thin, grainy leather but good for the price.
Anyone know of any bumper style that are very thin and silver/metal like the silver iPhone? Only ones I find have ugly bumps on back to protect camera or a massive lip on front... i want slim and to respect naked iPhone look but have protection... I hate the skins you can put on the phones as they don’t work well... thanks!
I’m determined not to buy a load of cases this year (had about 20 for my 11 pro max) but have just got the Caudabe Sheath in black and it’s superb. One of the best cases I’ve used. Got it off an official seller off eBay for £27. I highly recommend.
