Found an issue with my leather case for the 12PM: the right edge of the case comes up much higher than the left and my thumb gets caught on it when I’m swiping on the screen. I’m going to return this one and try again. Bummer because otherwise it’s a perfect case but this is very annoying.

I see some variance on my 12P case. One spot on the top by the right corner is a little higher and the left and right bottom corners seem to dip closer to the phone. Dunno if it’s really a problem or if it’d be any better on another case.

This is cool! Do you have a certain file image you use? Tried looking around, but not sure what the dimensions would be. Thanks!

Just googled Apple logo and picked the first one then proceeded to make like 14 different sizes and stuck with the ones that fit the best lol

Yeah definitely returning it. It just fell out of the case in my hand and scratched the screen against my ring.

Super disappointed. In all the years I’ve had iPhones, I’ve never used a case just a sleeve and never scratched the screen a single time.

This is what I fear about this leather case, that by using the case somehow it causes the phone to slip out.

These cases never work, sometimes design goes backwards at apple. Hate to say it.

I bought one of the silicon off eBay. The eBay one has the felt lining. Soft silicone. Feels just like the Apple one. $11 instead of $79. Ridiculous.

Does the silicone feel the same? I know the silicone on the cheap eBay watch bands have a very different feel (rubbery) compared to Apple’s.

Here's an assortment of comparison shots between the Apple Leather Case and the Mujjo leather case, for my iPhone 12 Pro.
The Mujjo smells like pure leather, whereas the Apple case has a faint smell of chemicals. The Apple case completely surrounds the phone and has metal buttons that are easier to press. Other obvious distinction is lack of MagSafe magnets in the Mujjo, but the Magsafe charger still "clicks" on to the case.

I'd really like to get my hands on the Bullstrap case since it looks like actual real leather from the photos.

I'm glad they closed off the bottom. I couldn't stand it being open.

I have never used Apple leather cases but this year i got one for my iPhone 12. I have been using it for past few days and so far corners are not popping out. I take phone daily out of case to put in different case that use to mount on my bicycle (clear spigen case with blender attachment for my Trek FX5). Will have to see if it taking it out and putting back in cause phone popping out. I am hoping it will not because I really like it for regular daily use so far.

Just a follow up to my experience with apple leather case. Unfortunately corners starting to pop out after few days of use so I had to return it. I am little disappointed because I really liked it :(. I went back to Spigen Liquid Air Armor case. Hopefully Apple will do quiet redesign in near future that will prevent those corners from popping out.

Has anyone heard about availability of Apple leather cases at Best Buy yet? I have rewards that are about to expire

I purchased my black leather case for my 12PM at Best Buy. I had to ask for it, wasnt out on the floor or on the website. I’m in NJ if that helps.

I got one some weeks ago and it was plasticky no lining. This new one is very much like the same silicone feel with the lining. Very good copy.

Is there a reason why the product codes differ by country? (I live in Japan and noticed this when searching for buying options)

Example: iPhone 12 leather case, saddle brown

US/AT/DE/ES: MHKF3ZM/A
Japan/China: MHKF3FE/A
Australia: MHKF3ZA
 
I went to BestBuy last night to pick something up and noticed... there were a lot of returned Apple iPhone 12 Leather cases (pre-owned). <shrug>. I realize that's circumstantial but ... that was a little surprising.

My local Best Buy was well stocked in used and new leather cases for the mini, 12 pro and pro max.

Black only.
 
Glad, choosen the saddle brown leather case from Apple. Nice feeling in the hand. Waiting for the patina effects 😀
