First Hands-On With iPhone 12 MagSafe Leather Cases Shared Online

[wackz]

When viewed from the front with iphone in the case - can you see the bezel/sides of the phone, or are they not visible and the case covers them completely? I think in the silicon ones you can see them?

..and STILL no sign of the leather cases in the Apple Store (UK at least)??!

Even some of the iPhone 12 Pro Max/Mini cases show 'coming soon' - why haven't they at least put the leather cases on there with the same slogan???!

Also, just found these from ESR:

...genuine leather too it seems.

Damn. A closed bottom. That really blows.

Anybody got a recommendation for a decent leather case that's still open on the bottom? I haven't used any cases other than Apple's leather ones up until now.

The native union cases for the iPhone 12 series have a cutout, I may consider them as an alternative but personally I don't mind not having the cutout. Less to contact upon dropping it.

The saddle brown on blue looks much more impressive than I imagined.

Aside from black, im torn on if I want to also get Product Red or Saddle Brown. I've been a big fan of the red leather Apple cases in years past.

I usually favor darker shades e.g Navy or black because I prefer a case that sort of blends in with the bezel, but that saddle brown looks really nice.

Any chance you can weigh the case?

are you kidding me... I literally looked them up on Amazon on Monday and couldn't find their iPhone 12 case, so I ended up ordering a cheap one from a different brand, which just arrived today and will be going in the bin once I get a replacement ?‍♀️

I had the ESR Premium Leather case for my iPhone 11 and really loved it! The leather feels different from the official iPhone case which my partner has, but it's less than half the price, and it IS genuine leather. I would have been happy enough getting this case again tbh. Might wait to see the colours of the official Apple cases before making a decision.

Thanks for posting the pics of the Saddle Brown @iKroes!

It'll be that or California poppy for me tomorrow hopefully...

 

[Sugadaddy]

Nice, looks perfect. The cutouts at the bottom are different than the silicone case.

Beautiful! These photos make me wish I had ordered the blue phone.

I have the gold 12 Pro in an Apple silicone case and I can see a small amount of the gold edge. It's a nice look.

So the colours are Baltic blue, California poppy, saddle brown, black and product red. What’s everyone getting?
Can’t wait to get a saddle brown! Wonder if they’ll be in store for pick up tomorrow?
