For my 12 mini, Black, I got a Black Spigen, White Elago and “matcha” green (my mint green lol)Ouxul case. Those last two are soft silicones. Spigen is the thin fit one.

I try to get the color cases that match the phones I don’t choose, to kill the color remorse. The white mini is still pulling on me though lol. I’m looking at some navy blue cases next. Maybe that apple one.

The Ouxul looks nice. What are the buttons made of? Are they clicky and responsive?

Nice looking case. How do you find the slickness/grippiness when holding the sides?
(Edit word)

It’s soft touch and kind of slick if you’re not applying any pressure. A bit of pressure with the fingers and it’s not as slippery. I thought it was going to be too slippery as the last case I had was a speck with the rubber grips on the back, however it’s workable. It’s definitely not for those who don’t like ANY smooth slippage and needs rock solid grip.

Anyone have the UAG Monarch? How is wireless charging?

Not MagSafe...just regular wireless. The 12 seems to have a smaller sweet spot for charging than my old phones.

some people say thicker cases don’t work with wireless

I’ve gone for a black 12 Mini, loving the satin band. There’s a black case on the way but I’m thinking perhaps a contrast would look better. Any folks on here paired a black mini with a contrasting case ? What combination did you go for? Photos would be welcome

Black leather. I picked one up this am at Best Buy as well.

As for the Otterbox, it's just ok but I am taking it back to Target. Buttons are meh, grip seems to be ok. Kind of difficult to put the case on as well. I liked last years model better.

Also on the sides it is all pliable near the power off/on button and on the volume button side as well. Will have to be on the lookout for another outdoors kind of case that is thought. Speck is usually good but I hear the buttons are crap on them this year as well.

I really like the look of the Solidsuit but with the width and material it’s still too close to the old Slipperysuit. Not as bad but just no texture especially after using a few days.
