Is Caudabe going to upgrade these cases with MagSafe at some point?

I highly doubt that’s going to happen, especially with the fact that they already work with MagSafe they just don’t stick as well as Apple’s true MagSafe cases. Also if they did upgrade with MagSafe I’m pretty sure the case would cost more which to some consumers like me I don’t care to pay for a premium for MagSafe as I don’t even use it.

Good thing most users of iPhone 12 series phones want Magsafe in their cases.

I don’t think it’s as popular as you might think it to be. I see a lot people with regular iPhone 12 cases and are just fine without MagSafe. I use all my regular wireless chargers I have around the house and never felt compelled to get a MagSafe.

Sorry. Overgeneralized. I'm around alot of techies (work in the IT field) and they all want to take advantage of these features and tech. they purchased.
 
Fairly thin, definitely a bit thinner than a Kung Fu Grip if you ever owned one. It's TPU material so it can only get so thin without messing with the integrity of the case.

This is a decent video that goes through the new lineup:


Wow I think I’m going to try out the Lucid Clear now. I’ve been searching for a thin clear case and seeing the Lucid Clear has fit my needs. I’ve tried the Totallee clear and Peel hard and soft cases and they don’t fit like the Totallee clear case for my XS Max.
 
I just received this case in navy blue. I couldn’t be happier. The fit of this case is perfect and I like how it goes up over the top of the screen like it does with that 90 degree angle if that makes sense. The texture is also very nice. This makes the Ringke onyx cases that I have look not as good as I thought they did. I am already thinking of ordering a couple different colors while they are on sale. I wish I would have tried this case a lot sooner because it would have saved me some money.

Nice! Yes I don’t get the fuss about the Onyx. Just from looking at its design online I’m not even interested in purchasing one. Sheath FTW!

What other colors are you considering?

Judging by posts on Caudabe's FB, it looks like they will be re-releasing some of their cases with Magsafe magnets.

I say keep your money, you have a much better case with the sheath. Looks, feel, texture of the case and the snug fit are all better IMO. I’m thinking of getting the gray. The green looks good to me, also.

Nice, I have a Gray coming in a couple days. Pretty excited about it.

I bet you’ll like it. You’ll see what I mean about that 90 degree angle it has so it comes over the top of the screen. The fit is perfect. There’s no way the phone will come out of the case on its own in the corners like some other cases can do.

Oh yea I know, I currently have a navy one and been wearing Sheaths since iPhone 6 lol
Their fitment is always awesome!

I'm eager to read your impressions of the Gray color. I have the Navy Sheath, and would love a 2nd color. (Ocean Blue is not offered for the 12 mini or this would be my choice.) My iPhone is always in the classic White option.

Nice I think White and Gray would make for a really nice combo! I will definitely share my thoughts on the Gray when I receive it.

You will not be disappointed 😀

I’m happy with my gray, definitely glad I bought the Sheath instead of the Onyx. I dislike the three bumps on the back too. Not very sure about the extra part on the corners either.
The Sheath is just a low profile, clean, no nonsense design.
The grip, the texture, cuts, fit, lips and buttons are just perfect. Not too thin, not too thick.
The 2 meters drop rate also reassuring for daily use.

Thank you for the photo, macdogpro! :)
Your description of the Sheath is spot-on. It's an elegant, protective choice for sure.
 
Every time I see someone post pictures of their Sheath, they look so incredibly nice, it makes me put my Sheath back on. However, I'm so used to the "softness' of the Apple leather case that I always go back to the Apple leather. I'm not ashamed to admit that the Sheath is too rough for my hands. Maybe I'll try to dedicate this weekend to using the Sheath so my hands get used to the feel of the case again.

It definitely can bother me when my hands are dry. Too bad someone cannot make a case with silicone that won’t stick to pockets and doesn’t look like crap in a matter of weeks.

The fitment and thickness are perfect for the sheath though.

Ok, this is probably a dumb question, but to you guys who like changing cases now and then has the sheath started to stretch out or get looser fitting because of taking it on and off of the phone. Mine fits so perfectly that I don’t want to mess it’s nice, tight fit up. But, dammit those gray and green sheaths are really looking so good.

Nope, no stretching whatsoever.
