I think with my onyx I was more impressed by the price for its fit and grip.

It’s not as nice looking as the caudabe cases I admit. I’m happy for now with my onyx though.

That grey looks really nice and subtle.

Yeah the Onyx seems a good bargain between the price and quality, I just prefer more clean design of the Sheath.

I’m a bit confuse about the grey, mine seems a lot darker grey compared to some other posts here and the advertised images. But I prefer darker grey as a subtle lighter black.

I’m loving this case. With the sale and coupon code along with the rumor of redoing these with MagSafe, I’ve now got one in every color coming except for the black. I’ve got enough black cases. I’m now set as far as cases go. To me, nothing beats this case. I just wish it wouldn’t have taken over 20 cases to finally find my perfect case.

Luckily it only took me 2 previous cases to find the Sheath.
Even though I might sell this one soon after they release the MagSafe compatible one and get that to hold my MOFT wallet more secure, and maybe I’ll be getting ESR car holder as well.

If you’re referring to my post, as I mentioned in it. It was taken under a bright white light to allow the color to pop and I also mentioned that it looks darker in darker settings.

Ah yes, was referring to your post.
So the grey really changes depending on the light, I see.
Haven’t took the Sheath outside the house in this past week since I got it and my room light is rather dim 😅

You saved a lot of money on cases finding one that was perfect for you that quickly. I’m still not liking the MagSafe. Between the marks it leaves on cases and marks on the phones that I read about, I’ve just stuck to my wireless chargers. Maybe after more time goes by I’ll use it again. I’ve got two MagSafe chargers here that I stopped using because of that.

Isn’t the magsafe puck does not leaves imprint on the Sheath?

Also does anyone can confirm that inner cases with magsafe circle inside leaves mark on the phone it self?

I don't know if it leaves an imprint on the Sheath or not. I'll have to do some searching before trying it out for myself. Now you've got me curious.

I am currently Using the Spigen Mag Armor and I am so excited for my Sheath to come. The Mag Armor is almost the perfect case for my liking, but if it was a tiny bit thinner and didn’t have the textured lines across the back, it would have been. From all the feedback and pictures, the Sheath may fit the bill for my liking.

Ugh, the Caudabe Sheath does not work with the Belkin MagSafe BOOST↑CHARGE PRO 3-in-1 Wireless Charger.

Of course Caudabe doesn't claim this will work, but others had said that MagSafe worked with the Sheath. Well the Belkin magnet is definitely not strong enough to work through the case. So I will need to order an Apple leather case for my iPhone 12 Max. But I would prefer a Caudabe Sheath with MagSafe compatibility.

Btw, I tried the Belkin MagSafe Vent Holder with my Sheath. Don't bother, it does NOT hold the phone whatsoever.

I’m really not bothered about MagSafe at all to be honest. My iPhone complete with Caudabe sheath charges with no issues every time I put the phone on the charger. Having a magnet in there is something I don’t think I’m in any need of. I also don’t want my phone fast charging when it’s sat on the charger for 8 hours a night anyway.

The Caudabe sheath seems to have a big following. Never wanted to try it. Always went the leather way. But, now tempted to try it. Is there a newer version of this for the iPhone 12 Pro that improves on the fit? Just curious, what is so special about this case? Looks fairly routine and the material seems sticky?

It’s the best case I have used or seen in all honesty. The material isn’t remotely sticky either. It’s semi hard and has a grippy but dry texture I would say. Beats any Apple case IMO.

I had always used Apple genuine leather cases for about 10 years before trying Caudabe. The quality is very good, excellent grip and fit. As mentioned, it never gets sticky. Only the very first batch for the iPhone 12 models had some issues. Caudabe also has good customer service, it seems they're in the US.

I'm pretty bummed I can't use my existing 12 Pro Max cases (I bought two!) with my new Belkin MagSafe stand. I had to order an Apple leather case w/MagSafe. I saw Caudabe might release a MagSafe version, but I can't wait that long.

I received the gray and sea green today. The two other blues were also supposed to be delivered today, but the package is stuck in Chicago for the moment. Really happy with both colors. The green is great. If you’re a fan of the Eagles, it will match their green closely.

Although I'm not using the Sheath for the current generation, the Sheath is the only case I would recommend to anyone who asks. The case fits the phone so well. I don't know what it is about the material, but the case hugs the phone tight and the phone feels snug and secure in the case. Because of how the case hugs the phone, it really feels like the phone was sprayed with a thick layer of Plasti Dip. On the off chance that I have the Sheath on my phone, I find myself rotating the phone in my hand and admiring it because I just love the way the case looks on the phone.

With that being said, the only reason I'm not using the Sheath is because the cutout for the lightning cable hurts my pinky because of the way I hold my phone. Others might hold their phone differently, which is why I always recommend the case by default.

Hello BeatCrazy. When I use the MagSafe Charger I let my 12 mini go caseless. Last thing I'd want is to mar(k) my Sheath or BalticBlue Apple leather with a MagSafe ring:


Apple Warns MagSafe Charger Can Leave Circular Imprints on Leather Cases​

If you keep your iPhone in a leather case while charging with Apple's new MagSafe Charger, the case might show circular imprints from contact with the accessory, according to a new Apple support documentpublished today.

Just a friendly heads-up, in case you weren't aware of the issue.

That Belkin stand looks nice!

Yes, I have seen reports. But I don't think the cosmetic mark (if the Belkin will indeed contribute to leaving one) will be a concern to me.

I also ordered the Baltic Blue case, mine arrives tomorrow :D

Hope this charging setup works well for you! 😀
The buttons on the leather case are a clicky dream.

(My apologies for wandering so far off thread topic!)

I just love this case, so I bought one in every color except for black. I Just received the last ones I ordered today. I thought the navy would have stayed my favorite color, but the ocean blue now has the top spot. The color of this case just looks really good to me and it matches up perfectly with my pacific blue PM. I couldn’t be happier with this particular case and color.

Ok so what’s your list from favorite to least favorite in color?

I asked a friend of mine who has every color and this was his answer.

1. Ocean Blue
2. Gray
3. Electric Blue
4. Sea Green
5. Navy
6. Black

I’m getting my Ocean Blue tomorrow, right now Gray is top of my list, he said wait until you get Ocean Blue! Lol
