iPhone 12 Apple leather cases?

The construction is poor on the Max saddle brown leather case that I received from Apple around the camera cutout - wrinkles. I compared this to the 12 Pro case I received which did not have this issue. I saw the backorder on Best Buy and elected to order from Amazon for a replacement Max case. Amazon also had a $12 click coupon on the mag safe wallet so I ordered out of curiosity though I’m not sure I’ll see the value in the wallet.

Yep, gotta say I really like the black apple leather case for my mini. Perfect fit, no quality issues and no popping out. It’s a smooth looking case for sure. My only apprehension is cleaning it after being out in covid land... not sure what to clean the leather with.

My saddle brown leather case has been perfect and if anything has been too hard to take off. I have the saddle brown, a black silicon and a totallee clear. Of the three, the silicon has been my least favorite. Very impressed with the brown leather one.

Black apple leather for my mini here, feelz, looks razor sharp, tight fit, sans corner pop.
But as I’m worried about the leather, I’m considering apple silicone for light hiking, park stuff and covid world interaction. So I’m curious what makes you least impressed w apple silicone case?
 
Thats what I am rocking, its a great combo. Have the saddle brown wallet also which looks epic with the blue.
 
the mag safe charger locks onto the mini leather case quite well. so good that ill mount this onto my car dash. maybe the mini is just lighter compared to the other phones but so far my leather case is a winner.

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 just gonna say that the Mujjo case is a con.

Look at the buttons on the real life case:

Now, look at the buttons they show on the Mujjo website:

Completely and totally different.

Mujjo are a joke (and yes I ordered one myself - its trash).

Nice comparison. I really like my Mujjo case. And the leather is definitely of better quality than the leather on the Apple leather cases. Buttons aren’t metal, but very similar to the buttons on early Apple cases - eg for the iPhone 5. They also soften up over a relatively short time period and become more responsive.

I got one for 12 mini and... I’m impressed about build quality.

Everything seems fine except volume down button - feels differently than other ones - is not „clicky”. While I can’t click other buttons with silience (even when doing it really slowly), with this volume down button I can click it without „click” sound. It looks as it was blocked by something.
Does anyone experience this problem too?
 
Anyone with the black leather find it sticky? Might be just the humidity here now. My sheath is not.

For which case? The Apple leather or Mujjo?
