Well it's begun despite how certain I was that I wouldn't buy cases for this generation.
Spigen Neo Hybrid in Gunmetal coming for my Graphite 12 Pro. I had one for some long past generation that I don't recall and it's just a sharp looking case.
Anybody have this case?
Edited to add there's a Black Friday discount automatically applied that knocked off $10.49 so ended at $25.85. Great deal.

So what’s the best hard clear case that everyone likes here?
Deciding between the Caudabe lucid clear and tech21 evo clear. But the evo clear seems to add a lot of bulk?

Better the case get scratched than your phone.Got mine too and already have a scratch in the top inside right corner from taking case off and on. Had the same problem last year with my 11.
Tech21 Evo Check. In love. My favorite color and the perfect amount of grip. For those wanting to get one, do it. Best Buy is having their sale for half on these and it is so worth it.
Is that matte texture on the sides and back? I had one for my X and it was all smooth and glossy, and would get a bit slippery with lotion etc. But if it’s matte now, that could be interesting.
Yeah it’s definitely not smooth and glossy, a bit more plastic-y but easy to hold on to.
I happen to be wearing my Evo case today too; oddly enjoy it quite a bit. Definitely improved over years past IMO
Yeah, I’m glad I got it this year, I’ve seen it for the longest time but never made the plunge till now.
The fit is tremendous, very little give anywhere
If they could get rid of fingerprints, it would be my only case every year.
I’m going to assume you’re not in the US if that case still cost that much after $10 off. If you are, cancel it and save some money.

Thanks! I sent a request to cancel the order but my card has already been charged so we'll see what happens.

Black leather UAG Monarch in today. The case fits the 12PM perfect, feels great in the hand, nice buttons and NO Saggy Bottom . Don't get me wrong the rubber in that area is soft and flexible but not sagging fresh out of the box. It's overall a fantastic case. Here are a couple pics:

This is true, but it was the phone that scratched the case. I can’t figure out how to stop that from happening and getting worse. I change cases about every day so maybe it just isn’t the right case for me even though I really like it.
Your polling here will show a strong bias!
Unless there is micro debris on the phone that is scratching the soft case when inserting and removing, the phone, in and of itself shouldn’t be scratching the case ( I wouldn’t think).
Another possible Robert theory is that what you are seeing on the case are micro tears within the case material caused by expansion of the case when inserting and removing the phone. Said micro tears can also look like scratches. If that isn’t it, I don’t know. Lol
A little Novus #1 works wonders for the fingerprints on the back of this case.
Last Sena case i had was faulty, they refunded but i had to send them a photo of it cut in half first lol.
The back is still the same, but the “frame” around the phone is a grippy, matte finish now. At least on the Evo Check. The Evo Clear case doesn’t have the grippy frame.
I’ve never gotten a phone for aesthetics, don’t care what it looks like
