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.
If you do, mind adding some pics of the deep cherry?

I got the 13 pro - downsizing from the 12PM (another story). I am trying to decide between the dark cherry leather case and the midnight. I am disappointed that there is no blue leather case. I love the blue jay color, but do not want to have my case peel after a few weeks...

Whaaat, would you mind sharing which ones? Best I can get it to is like $25-28.
Make sure the items are from the same seller and click all the coupon/offers and add them to cart. For whatever reasons some combinations doubled or more the discounts. I couldn’t figure out any reason why it worked like that and couldn’t duplicate because the coupon was used

this phot kind of shows the blue hue to it. It’s tough to photograph. If you have something that’s a true black you can see the difference though.

What about this case? This is what i just ordered. And you can get a free 20w charger too

I ordered that, too. I did not like Apple’s version at all. The corners broke off because I like to take my phone out of the case to clean it and inspect for trapped grit.

Quick question, are the Apple silicone cases easy to take on/off? I’m always switching cases and was thinking of getting one.
I’m always switching cases, too, and yes the Apple silicone cases have gone on and off fairly easily. I hate cases that make me feel like I could break the phone trying to put them on or take them off.

@PhillyGuy72 I would be interested to see these as well!
Will do. I have a pick up window of 3:30pm I'll grab multiple angles, lighting (No sun today...eh), show the color differences..

"SouthernGuy" posted a new pic, that is a nice deep cherry look on my end.
YouTube video...odd. Wild mix of colors.

Should look amazing on the Graphite phone.

Awesome thanks! Not sure you would have another camera handy but a pic of your 12 PM in it would be helpful just to see it all together.

Yes, I saw the recent pic and the video you are referring to and it has me all over the place with this. Not too found of how it showed in the video.

I'll used my Canon for the shots, it will be a the Pacific Blue in the case though.

I know, that video was baffling. Looks very purple in one shot, then dark maroon in the next.
The more maroon, dark red, the better. Now if this does have heavy purple in this, nah...thats not my style..I'll just exchange it for the Sequoia.

Another video, very brief 15 sec. clip.

You saw the same thing as me...the purple tone is a no go for me. I look forward to hearing your feedback when you get it in hand.

Wow. That looks dull on Apple Website. I say order it and try it. If you dont like it you can always return it. Or visit Apple store for closer look.
It does look so different on the Apple website. My husband did order it and I showed him the photo of what it looks like in person. He’d rather have the darker duller version as it matches more of his stuff. It’s a shame I didn’t get a Pro Max because I would just take his case. I suppose we can pop into an Apple store and exchange it for a regular Pro size for me if he ends up getting something else.

I don’t know why Apple allows their products to be depicted so inaccurately. Don’t they have someone who checks things over? I know they can’t account for every lighting condition and every display setting but often their products are so different from how they’re depicted in the site renders.
