Does Apple have the cases on the walls like normal or are they in the back and you have to ask for them? Maybe I'll go Monday and grab a few and avoid the chaos of the weekend at my local Apple Store
When I went to the store, they said they wouldn't put them out until Friday. The only way they'd let me see a case was if I ordered it online and picked it up in store. A nice employee brought out two boxes--because that's all his manager would let him bring--but he couldn't open the boxes. I just kinda looked at him. He was trying to be nice, but the cases rarely look like what they look like on the box.

I always order Apple’s and return if unhappy by launch. For example, I don’t like the new Umber case and will return it now that I’ve seen it.

Yes, I ordered the Midnight in silicone Friday morning and it arrived Saturday morning. :) I actually like it fairly well, but I've always had white cases, so my brain is still deciding if this Midnight will work for me.

However, I really wanted to look at pretty much all of the colors, so I was tempted to order all the silicone to see which I liked and just return a whole bunch of empty boxes--but I don't have the heart to do that.

Not sure what you mean about empty Boxes… I just mean return the case and boxes in new condition if I hate it.

If anyone's wondering how the silicone sunglow looks like.

Otterbox symmetry+ (with MagSafe) and Spigen screen protector. Seems to be the case I always come back to with every new iPhone I get. It’s the best overall case for me.
Considering the Otterbox Symmetry+ in clear. Is it difficult to remove from the phone in your experience? I’m assuming the magnets are quite strong as well.

on my 13PM, I have a car MagSafe car mount, never had an issue with it ever falling off, yes, the apple one is stronger but, it was strong enough to stay on the mount. The case itself, super easy to remove.

Awesome, thanks! Considering the Symmetry+ clear over Caudabe Lucid Clear for grippier handling and better protection. Do really like the dark magsafe ring on the Lucid Clear charcoal though…

I really like the concept of the silicon cases... but I cannot deal with the constant hangers-on - the fact that these cases are absolute lint and debris magnets... Sticking with my Caudabe Sheath ... this year, in crimson.

You have the Crimson one already?

Have the Midnight Leather, love the in hand feel of these but am looking at the UAG MagSafe cases. Specifically the Monarch Pro and Pathfinder.

I need the MagSafe to be at least as strong as the Apple cases, anyone with a new 14 UAG MagSafe case or a 13 here to comment on the MagSafe strength please?

Looking for a good case when going to the gym or outdoor hiking? I already have the forest green apple leather. Any recommendations?

I went with an Apple silicone case and a Spigen clear Ultra Hybrid case. I also got the Spigen screen protector as I have used them in the past and never had any issues.
