So I just watched Flossy's video. Still don't know what case to get next. 
I’ll let y’all know if these new colors have the old grippy TPU on the back or the new plastic grips. I ordered the royal blue Presidio2 Grip after seeing it and falling in love (been looking for something other than the same old black cases). The 25% off code posted above sealed it for me.
I want this one but their 25% off Site Wide does not include the new iPhone 12 cases.
So much for site wide.

Really impressed with this, very grippy on the sides. Nice balance between slim and protective.

I´ve received my Pro Max Mouse-Case and I have to say that it is a step back from my old Mous-Case.
The cutouts aren´t perfect as they were on the old case and also doesn´t provide the grip my old case does.
It seems that the back of the case doesn´t have the same rubber finish than the previous case, which makes it very sensitive for scratches and more slippery.
I really like their cases, but for this price I am thinking about a return.

Ugh, I want the colorful slim fit from Spigen that is on their website but it's saying shipping in 30 business days which is crazy. Anyone know when they are releasing those?
bought first a Apple Leather Case, returned it after a week due to the phone popping out from the case.
had a ESR cloud silicon case, but the bottom lip was loose, so returned that.
have a Nudient V3 case now, the fit is very good and seems to be a keeper. Only negative is that its a smudge magnet (atleast the black color).

I hear you. That is the only thing holding me back from picking one up. I dunno, maybe I will go for one of the UAG cases or something.
Ordered the UAG Monarch with leather and I'm praying for no saggy bottom 🙏
Had the saggy bottom Monarch in the past and it sucked. You would think after all these years that UAG would make their rubber a little firmer around the charging port area.

and over the buttons. They have nice cases, but the TPU always makes me shy away
All the new cases have the plastic grips. Pretty obvious from the product page.

I sent mine back. It sagged.
If you want a slim case with a good feel in the hand do try the Spigen thin fit. Feels great in the hand, has a decent lip and no added bulk.
Ordered my thin fit in blue on November 20. Hasn’t shipped yet. Always get this case when I get a new iPhone.
Yes this Catalyst case is great. The buttons are very tactical and easy to press. The case has firm TPU rubber that keeps the phone tight in the case but easy to remove. Every thing about this case is great, no sagging or loose top or bottom and sides. The sound forward speakers sound great, overall this case is a keeper.

I have two cases for my new iPhone12PM.
My first case was the RedPepper Designed case. It is a clear back, with black surroundings. It does come with a front screen cover as part of the 2 piece case. Overall it is a nice case.
The second, which came today, is the Mous Limitless 3.0 Aramid Fiber. I just put this on, but here are some of my observations thus far...

- Good protection, decent grip.
- The downfall is it doesn't keep dust and all out of the back as good as it should and it's a little bulky.
- I feel the camera opening should have some TPU or silicone around to help seal out the dust.
- Fingerprints are bad as well.
- While some like the camera cutouts on the front screen protection, I find this just allows more dirt/dust in. I would have liked it better if it was more like Lifeproofs.

The second, which came today, is the Mous Limitless 3.0 Aramid Fiber. I just put this on, but here are some of my observations thus far...
- The case is tight-fitting and compared to the RedPepper, it is thin.
- While everything tells you this should be a protective case, I was expecting a little more TPU or silicone on the inside.
- I was also expecting a bit more Aramid fiber - it feels like a lot of plastic ad the Aramid Fiber is just "window dressing"
- No banana boat on mine. Completely flat.
- I prefer more of a lip around my screen for drops and protection. I know that Mous was not made this way, but I would have liked a little more of a lip on the top and bottom.
- Port openings are nice but symmetrical. Not the worst, but when paying this much for a case, they could have been made to match the phone and give more protection.
