I like the saddle brown, as it will take on more character over time, vs the black.
Got a tip for us?

Saddle Brown looks great but the combo blue/black is wonderful.
I’m partial to saddle brown. It gives a nice contrast and ages differently than the black.
I keep swapping between the black sheath and the apple black leather, sheath feels a bit smaller and doesn't feel sticky like the apple, think it's the heat here the leather doesn't like. Sheath is a better fit and it's black not charcoal.
Are you going to reconsider the saddle brown at some point? My local Best Buy is starting to stock them and it’s soooo tempting to try one again.
No i think i am done now, if i get anything else i would be just getting the same cases as last year lol. I would get a black Nomad if the buttons were at least as good as the sheath, but it's not as easy to return here as you are dealing with a re seller.
Black.
Put mine on tonight when I got home. Liking it big time.
The Tech 21 Evo Check looks and feels like a fantastic case for the 12PM. I've had this case in the past and it did not thrill me at all. After fondling one at Best buy today, I really like it. I'm hoping it will go on sale again sometime soon.
Best price currently is $29.99 at Verizon. Shame I missed the $20.00 sale a couple days ago.

That was an early Black Friday deal. It will go back on sale between Monday and Wednesday next week at the latest.
Catalyst INFLUENCE CASE FOR IPHONE 12 PRO MAX. I’m liking on my Pro Max. Forward Audio Projection,Nice twist knob for the mute switch.frosted back it feels good in the hand. No smudges and fingerprints. First time trying this case and for me it’s great. Not too bulky.
I have the carbon fibre version of it. Wireless charging works fine with the case on. The only problem I have is my 12 PM won't charge standing up on my Samsung standing wireless charger, not sure if it's the placement of charging coils or what. Works fine on any lay down wireless charger I have tried.
Really like the black leather on the mini. Tight, sleek and luxurious
Had one for my X and really liked the quality and feel. Made that phone a little wider, but I’m considering it as a rugged alternative for the mini
Had to open about 10 different black leathers at Best Buy to find a nice smooth one. Most had tiger stripes, dents, pimples, and other blemishes. The only saddle brown in town was at Verizon and it was perfect.
Love these Apple leather cases but there is not any front screen protection, the case does not lay flat on it's back and wobbles. Excellent Buttons though and very classy looking.
Here a couple pictures showing the screens. I have a screen protector on the phone but there is not much lip around the phones display at all.

It's actually not thick and is the same thickness as the apple silicone case.

Has anyone bought any UAG cases this year? How are they?
edit: just watched some videos on youtube, a no go... the top and bottom parts of the case sag like the black otterbox symmetry volume buttons for most of the UAG cases

Received this blue ultra thin case from eBay.
Love the slim profile and it barely adds any bulk or weight to the phone.
But the blue is a navy blue and it doesn’t match the pacific blue

Just got my Caudabe Sheath in Navy Blue, took 2 weeks to arrive to the UK, not sure if its a revised version or not, but it came via Holland.
All sides are fine apart from where the volume buttons are, its ever so sightly loose there, but to be honest its acceptable
Still amazes me that this case is rated at 2m drop tested, i think its the slimmest id like to go and have drop rated protection.
its a great case.

Same two colors I purchased with the intent to return the one I didn't like. Don't get me wrong, Saddle Brown is a nice color especially after months of use however I can never get over how shiny the buttons are compared to how dark the case eventually gets. If they made the buttons darker initially, similar to what they did around the camera area it would blend much better in the long run. I buy the Saddle Brown every year thinking I may change my mind but always think back to the buttons and its usually the one that goes back. So for me, you can't go wrong with Black....sleek yet still classy looking especially on the Graphite phone.
I’m a bit late, but for screen protectors I usually go Spigen or Tech armor. Neither have failed me. Spigen has a very interesting application guide that I am eager to try, so I ordered that this year. If you’re paying over $20 for a screen protector, you’re getting ripped off.
Which one do you prefer? Please don't give a divided opinion. Either black or brown.
