the magsafe compatibility is the reason the circle is there... i'm not sure that thin clear plastic will work... i'm sure it will charge on qi chargers, and maybe even the magsafe charger but it probably will suffer from lack of strength in the attachment and might limit you to lower charging speeds. i'm sure people will be testing right away.
Got a tip for us?

Yes, I found it on Amazon. I searched for IPhone 12 Pro and found a spigen case and then went to the spigen store and found it.
I'm currently looking at the Spigen Ultra Hybrid and the Caudabe Lucid Clear:

Saddleback makes iPhone cases? I'll have to check those out. I bought a Saddleback wallet over eight years ago and it still looks brand new.
The Apple clear case is hideous not to mention way over priced for what it is. I have this ESR clear case for my 11 Pro Max and just got the 12 Pro Max version in the mail. I’m not sure if there is a version for the other iPhone models but there may well be. It’s been great on my 11 Pro Max so I’m sure it will be on the 12 Pro Max when I get it.

Ordered this one until I get my loopy case.

I don't understand. I literally *cannot* hold any post-5 iPhone without it slipping from my hand. Do you have glue fingers?
Grabbed a black silicone case. Will be getting either 1 or 2 leather cases once they are available.
I ordered the clear case and the magnets really don't bother me. I'll have my wallet attachment on most of the time so no big deal.
Can't wait to see what leather colors they offer. Does anyone know if the leather will cover the bottom like the silicon? And when they are going to show up on the store?

Does it have a lip so you can place the iPhone face down safely? Can you post a pic of the front please?
I ordered the clear Apple case as I think it looks great circle and all. Obviously a lot of
people like it as they are now shipping in November.
You notice I said “I THINK it looks great” not it looks great. As it’s my opinion. I love how people say ”it‘s hideous!” Like it‘s a fact. I understand how people could not like it. It’s not for everyone. I don’t like pink silicon cases, doesn’t mean they suck for a fact.
I’ve used many clear cases in the past and have found Apple‘s clear case to be the best. Others scratch too easy or yellow with time. I’ve had the clear Apple case on my 11Pro and love it.

I'm mesmerized by the video clips of how the Apple clear case attaches to the phone using magnets. I can't wait to try it!
Yes I’m looking forward to the MagSafe function with the case as well!
I have to disagree there. It is a hideous case. Just because I don’t include the word think in that comment doesn’t mean I’m stating a fact because I’m not. It’s still just my opinion regardless. I think you’re getting way to caught up in the phrasing.
But it is NOT a hideous case. That IS your opinion. Not getting caught up in the phrasing at all. It IS a clear case. That is a fact. I think you need to use different phrasing to express your opinion. But hey that’s my opinion and why once again I said I think. You can disagree all you want but you are stating a fact when you say it is. This is where you ARE wrong. That is a fact.
Exactly it’s my opinion as you so rightly said so I don’t have to include the word think do I ? Not to mention you saying I’m wrong is also just your opinion and nothing more. It’s most certainly not a fact.
Whatever. Using the word “is” is stating a fact. Not an opinion. Too many people in this forum state their opinion as fact. I don’t like the large max iPhone. I THINK it looks ridiculous and too big. I don’t say the iPhone 12Pro max is ridiculous as it’s not, it’s just my opinion. Simple English grammar that’s all.
I think it would look best and stand out less on the Silver than other colors. I don't know why they had to make it white? A soft gray would have been more appealing IMHO. Still debating on this case myself.
Yes they could have made it less noticeable. My wife does not really like it and said she wouldn’t mind it on the silver phone but not sure she’ll like it on my graphite. I will not mind it at all.
Again you’re making a big deal about something that doesn’t need a big deal to be made out of. It’s all just semantics. Anyway I’m done having this discussion with you as you obviously don’t accept my view on it.
