Think I may give the Umber a go…. Never had a brown case from new
 
I’ll probably go with a Magbak case again. Nice silicone feel like the Apple silicone but actually lasts. Plus the MagSafe magnets are crazy strong. I can hold my phone by the magnet popgrip and shake it and it doesn’t fall off. If I do the same on my wife’s Speck case it falls off in one shake.
 
I will likely be getting an iPhone 14 Pro Max from work, unless my job decides to charge me a ton of money for it. But I am do for an upgrade. Not sure what I will start off with, but likely an Apple leather case.

Same here. Great case.

For this years leather case offerings from Apple, I would say Ink is the winner in my view (followed by Umber, aka return of Saddle Brown). Direct match with the new purple, which in its own self also looks great, its also very smart looking

Also keep in mind if iPhone 13/Pro is anything to go off, this is probably it for the leather case colours, they likely won’t get any new colours in March - the 13 didn’t. Overall, the 14 line has a good selection of leather case colours I would say, definitely better than the 13‘s lineup
 
I don't know whether to buy midnight silicone or leather.
I like the silicone cases, but my last two cases had the outer silicone layer come off after a year or so.
I'm not sure about leather because of patina. I'm worried it doesn't look good on the Midnight Case....

You probably won’t have to worry about pains on the darker cases

If I were to get the 14, I'd go with Umber and see how that ages. Gold looks cool with it.
