from what i’m reading, it’s a early black friday special that ends 11/17 for my best buy members. non best buy members can get the price at the actual black friday event. the my best buy membership is free tho!
What are people using to clean their phones with leather cases? On my 11 PM I had the Apple leather case and would clean my phone with Clorox wipes or alcohol wipes. The alcohol wipes would remove the color. I stopped using the leather and moved back to the Sheath.
Now on my 12 PM I’m using the Apple leather case again. Sheath has quality issues. I do have a phonesoap homesoap that use when I’m home. But what about when our grocery shopping? I can’t waste 1 Clorox wipe just to wipe down the phone.

With the amount of bacteria leather cases absorb, you’d need to use some heavy duty detergent to clean them completely.
I wouldn’t bother - just dampen a paper towel with water & wipe it every day.
You could try a mild dish washing detergent (diluted may be better in case it impacts the leather), but water should be good enough if you do it daily...
In saying that, water & leather aren’t a great mix either...hence why leather cases disgust me, especially after a few months/years...talk about a Covid hotspot. 🤮
Is anyone using those square camera protectors? How are they - they seem bulky...? Any recommended ones?
Has anyone got a Pacific Blue pro or pro max with an Apple silicone case in navy and can share some pics please?
Do you mean this lens film? It is quite pricey for ESR in terms of buying from Chinese website. Other brands may sell under £1.

They’re ridiculous imo. What monstrosities 😂
The glass on the lenses is the most scratch resistant glass on the phone, so I see it as pointless.
its not for the lens, its for the lens surround that can get scuffed up/scratched, depends how OCD you are

I will look ridiculous rather than suffering from anxiety. Starting to notice that lump gonna scratch at some point.
It depends on preference too. Some like things in pristine state and some for rugged look for personality. Whichever way we go, it’s cool.
And I think I m bipolar too. Want to take a bigger risk with this aluminium bumper frame. It will probably scratch stainless side for big time.
Finally received my Decoded Leather case for iPhone 12 Pro , used their case for my last iPhone and even more impressed with the case for the 12 Pro.The case has the bottom cutout like the previous Apple cases which i prefer and the leather is nice and not very grainy and smells like leather.

The black Symmetry for the 12PM has the sharpest, stiffest edges of any case I've ever fondled. I can guarantee you this thing will scratch the sides of your new shiny phone. I've had the black Symmetry for the past 5 plus phones and always loved them. Won't be purchasing it for the 12PM
Wish I knew about the OB Symmetry. I ordered one last night from Target for cheap.
Buttons are metal and just a little stiff, but i think that's due to the case still being new and expect them to soften up with use. Otherwise they have a very nice solid feel to them.
And the fit is good? Only reason I am considering this is because I've heard Apple's leather case has issues with the corners popping out.
I have no issues with the Otterbox Symmetry. There does seem to be variation as others have reported issues. None here.
And if I’m not mistaken, the Decoded cases used to be Apple exclusive for previous gen iPhones. Definitely a very nice case.
The one I was referring to is the solid black color one.
Please let us know how it is about you try it out? How much is Target selling them for? I only see $49.99
Some follow up to my own question...
Nice, is it more of an orange or peach color in real life?

Aluminum Frame Metal Bumper Slim Hard Case Cover For iPhone 12 Pro Max 12 mini | eBay
The iPhone bumper case could protect your iPhone edge, but can not hide your iPhone in a bulky case, this let you more individual and fashional. The iPhone case has three silicone joint, you can twist it and easily install it onto your iPhone without any scratch to your iPhone.

It feels good. Solid, and sleek.
Very slightly more pastel-y than it looks in those photos, but it’s definitely orange in real life.
