Anybody with a Caudabe case and iphone 12/Pro?

I have the new MagSafe Sheath. It looks exactly the same as the regular one with the following exceptions:

- MagSafe ring (of course)
- buttons now have partial cutouts which make them super clicky ( big improvement in my opinion)
- bigger bump at bottom edge

see photos attached.

Only one complaint - my iPhone 12 Pro drops one bar of service with the Caudabe Sheath MagSafe on. The phone naked or with the Apple Silicone shows a bar higher than the Caudabe case. 😣

Just got the new MagSafe Sheath in Ocean blue for my 12 pro. It’s def a little heavier and thicker than the original sheath. The buttons are now way more tactile than before which is great. The MagSafe magnet seems just as strong as my Apple leather case. Overall it’s a winner in my book.

I got my Ocean Blue Sheath back before the MagSafe version was even a thing, and now I wish I had waited. 🤣 Still, it’s quite the beaut!! Might try the trick that their Twitter account posted about cutting the buttons so they’ll be more clicky and tactile.

Could someone who supports their phone with their pinky comment on how the Sheath feels? It seems hard to find a case that doesn’t dig into my pinky.

My tech 21 case is fairly comfortable for me on the pinky.

Check out my post below. It’s one of the few things I mentioned.

Which Case Did You Get For Your New iPhone 12/Mini/Pro/Max? [Merged]

Got tracking info for my Sheath and it's not supposed to come until Monday. :confused: Something happened yesterday and I started noticing little things about my Decoded leather I didn't like, mainly the gap between the frame and the case at the bottom lightning port area. I ended up taking...

It definitely digs into my pinky. Doesn’t take much time either, after short use my pinky already gets discomfort. Now I’m speaking for the 12 Pro Max which is larger and heavier. Not sure how bad it would be with the 12/Pro/Mini. It definitely isn’t a deal breaker for me though, I absolutely love these cases and they remain my absolute favorites.

I meant the bumper. I ordered one from Amazon and it felt like I was always about to drop it.

It was slippery at first, but after 2 days of using it, it don’t feel slippery anymore. I’m also using a glass back protector and that help with the phone not slipping out of my hand.

I was considering trying the Smartish Gripmunk because it looks to be designed with pinky comfort in mind, and the grip looks nice. I just don’t know if the back would age as nicely as a Sheath, and it’s not quite as slim.

I wish they’d sell the Sheath on Amazon to make shipping and returns more easy.

I requested a return for my Sheath and was contacted the next day, one email to offer an exchange where I keep the Sheath and pick another case and a second with a return label. Not sure it could be easier than that.

It’s mostly that shipping costs extra and I don’t own a printer.
 
Wanted a Caudabe case with Magsafe, unfortunately the Sheath is not available for the 12PM. Opted for the Synthesis in Ocean Blue. Not wild about the ring on the back of this or any case for that matter, but the feel of the case in hand and appearance, ring aside, is great.

Summer Sale is going on now. Sheath is down to $24.65 for the PM.
 
Is the Lucid Clear case for the iPhone 12/12 Pro still slippery as hell? However its easily the best looking and best fit clear case I've used (I had one for my iPhone XS) so may buy one for my 12 Pro.

Anyone know of any working discount codes on caudabe.com?

Edit: NEWSTUFF works (10% off)

Cheers
