Already took off the silicone. The lint was everywhere.
In a tech 21 evo check, which is a go to.
Much happier
Yes my silicone case has already gone back. Lint and slimy to me.

Otterbox Aneu went back also. Was way to saggy at the lightning port. Not worth using MagSafe.

Speck Perfect Mist also went back. Some of the worst all time buttons out there.

Right now I am using a Presidio Grip 2. Still like the regular grips better but the buttons make up for a a lot.

I’m thinking about returning the silicones as well. Hopefully their leather is better

Haha after reading your post i ended up ordering Ringke and Supcase cases to cover my device until Apple drops them leather cases. I really really hope they are not open bottom cases.

If I end up buying an iPhone 12, I will buy the Nomad Rugged. That case has been great on my iPhone X since the phone’s launch.
Are you going to stick with the original rugged or the active? Or!!?? The all new untreated rugged leather Nomad?

Side note, I have the black apple silicone case on now until my spigen thin fit comes in on Monday. I’m kinda liking this silicone case more that I thought I would. It’s really soft and feels nice in the hand and covers all sides including the bottom of my 12. It is a lint and dust/dirt magnet for sure! I’ll definitely order a saddle brown case once they’re released.
 
Sticking to the Pelican Voyager case for my 12
Pro. I like having the swivel clip/kickstand and belt clip option.
Also got a ZAGG tempered glass screen protector.
 
MagSafe also went back until more cases adopt it. A non MagSafe case barely sticks on with the magnet and charges super slow.

Silk Smartish Kung Fu Grip. Very underrated case. Feels great and doesn’t leave fingerprints. I’ve had them on my last 3 phones.

Ended up going with this guy. I’m going to try my hardest to stick with it for at least 100 days. It’s not my usual case of choice.

The original dark brown leather one is the one I will get if I buy an iPhone 12. The color is nice and that’s the one I have on my X, so never change a winning team. ;)

That sounds great! I don't like the lip getting in the way during swipe up, that's what I really appreciated about the Apple cases. My last SwitchEasy case was when I had a 3GS, maybe time to look again.
I'd be very interested in your thoughts if do get it.

(I'm still waiting to find out if I can grad the iPhone 12...If I can, this will be my case).

ESR hybrid case and protector seem to be ok on mine,
Still not sure 100% sure on clear cases yet, just doesn’t show off the pacific blue I think and then goes brownish colour after several months.

Have just ordered one of these to try too, looks nice... caseology. Taken the colour off amazon now though so hope it arrives Monday.

I love the texture of the otterbox symmetry. Does anyone have recommendation that have that same matte back feel for iPhone 12?
 
Anyone else using the Apple clear case with magsafe and finding that the 1mm protective lip around the cameras is causing the case to rock when placed on a flat surface? I guess designed to sit on a magsafe charger but a little 1mm dimple on the oposing top corner would have solved it. Still decisign whether to return but its the attention to detail that allows Apple to charge a premium.
