I got my midnight case today. It’s not black but a very dark blue. Looks black unless in the right lighting and then you can see it’s blue. Had a car with a similar color so im happy with this.
Thank you!
 
I guess ESR has a new stronger screen protector.



I am also considering this case because it is very thin.

Be sure to add them to your cart and check the price at checkout. They have crazy bundle prices that don’t make sense. I did the screen protector and case for $13 today

Sucks they're not doing a leather Product Red case, I'd need to see the silicone version in person first before considering. Ordered a dark cherry one in the meantime.

Yeah. I don’t get why they all of a sudden stop making that.

Anybody got a recommendation for a good red case alternative? The Apple silicone cases always seem like lint magnets to me.
 
Midnight silicone - it’s a very dark midnight blue.

Are case vendors still doing special preorder sales? I don't see them on Slickdeals anymore. I remember picking up an amazing iPhone 11 Pro Level ITG for $2.99 after a special promo code.
 
I went ahead and placed an order for a Caudabe Sheath and Synthesis. Found a 20% off coupon online. They will arrive after the phone but I have another case arriving sooner.

They seem to fit most of my concerns.
Magsafe
Slim but protective
Grippy
Excellent buttons
Good quality
12 pro max Synthesis hardly used.

Just ordered the dark cherry Apple leather case for my Sierra Blue iPhone promax 13. I already received the midnight but I really like the way the dark cherry looks with the sierra blue in the picture. Plus I ordered the dark cherry Braided Loop band for my Hermes SBSS Apple Watch Series 6. I will be getting the SBSS Hermes Series 7 when it comes out but at least now my band will to match my phone case. Around the house I wear just the Braided Loop bands so I don’t ruin my Hermes bands.
 
How does the Veil hold up to a couple drops? I drop mine on average of maybe 5-10 times a year(always in a case though lol). curious how the thinner material holds up.
I've dropped mine more than a few times, not a scratch or dent in sight. Still looks new. Obviously this kind of case is not meant for drop protection. It's mostly to prevent scratches/smudges while maintaining the thinness/natural form factor of the phone. I really like the material because its not matte nor smooth. Theres a very slight ruggedness to it. Its perfect for me because my palms get sweaty at times, and even when that happens no fingerprints or smudges stick to the case.

Can anyone recommend a case for 13 Pro Max that is either a decent leather (I like the looks of Apple's green leather case) or just plain clear that works with MagSage AND WILL LAY FLAT WHEN YOU SET IT DOWN?

Whaaat, would you mind sharing which ones? Best I can get it to is like $25-28.
 
I went with the leather case in Golden Brown. I think the color will probably be similar to the older saddle brown which I’ve owned in the past. Personally, I wish Apple had better color options for the leather cases this year. I feel like none of them match very well with the Sierra Blue iPhone.
 
I just went with this one. I liked the look. I usually use Caseology or Spigen cases. Went with the Spigen Glas.tr screen protectors as those have never let me down. Easy install and always look great.

Yeah I like the Golden color so just worried how fast that tone will show the blackened dirt. Hope it ages well, then I can get one later.

For what it's worth, one of the few products sold in both colors currently:
Personally, I do hope the Golden brown is a lighter color than saddle brown. It sort of reminds me of my sons California Poppy for his iPhone 12; it’s beautiful case. I had Saddle Brown for one of my previous iPhones and the patina looks amazing over time, IMO.
 
That is probably the sexiest leather case yet! Can’t wait to receive mine!
Wow, crazy color shifting. Thanks for this video!

I am actually in the parking lot of my Apple Store. They CANNOT have these on display until next Fri, or have walk in purchases.

But buy online, choose in store pickup - at the store where I am now…then yes, I can have this in 2 minutes .(umm ok?) 🤔

Anyway the one employee, very cool….only could give me a slight hint of the case. Went in the back room, was trying to open the box - which can be tough, but bent back the box so I can see it. Looked darker in store, under flashlight. Still very tempting. The Sequoia also looked darker…

So.. I may just buy Cherry online, go back in one hour (have to do few other tasks) come back and pick it up. If I don’t like…then Sequoia is the other safe bet option.
