Here’s a screenshot from the Engadget video showing the leather cases in the background, prefer the cut out on the bottom of the silicone cases compared to the leather cases.

Here’s another video with all the colors.

the silicone cases don’t have the cutouts, only pin holes where the speakers/microphones are and a cutout for the lightning port. maybe you know this, its just not clear from your post.

Give me the cutouts, more opening for speakers/sound, hope they are not too heavy.

I am 6 hours from a Apple store so don’t know, I only want black but won’t be ordering till the morning, not staying up till midnight for a phone case lol, JB usually get the black in early too.
 
The leather cases look like they have a bigger bump around the camera cut out compared to the silicone cases. 🤔
My Sheath I got today has a vey slight wobble nothing to worry about though. Hard to tell if the Apple is bigger.

Don’t like it. I like the cutouts to leave the mic and speakers unobstructed. Also it’s easier to take out of the case that way. With the bottom lip closed it makes the phone sink in deep and harder to take out to clean and admire.

Brave man waiting till the morning 😅should be alright if you get to JB early in the morning on launch day.
 
Only for the Max. My normal leather case is flat
Seems that way, not sure if I’m seeing thing, the camera lens rings on the pro max seem to protrude out further than the 12 pro. 🤔
 
The leather case looks better without the plastic bumper around the camera. Don’t know why they added it this year. All previous versions didn’t have this plastic.
I don’t want plastic in my leather cases!
Guessing the cameras protrude out further this year, unless they made the case thicker, which would of added a lot more bulk, the plastic bump seems to be a good compromise, I agree with you though doesn’t look that good.

But why does the bumper on the leather case protrude more than the silicone? Is the leather case thinner?
 
Ordered this too but the buttons are horrid to press. Contacted their support and they said they are actually working on fixing it.
Mine are ok, they sending you a new one?

Try pushing the buttons out a bit from inside the case with some thing flat. Might loosen them up a bit.

Strange one, guess only apple would know why they made them like that.

Hopefully we can get a pro max tonight. Maybe everyone will go to bed early tonight. 🤔😂
