This is surprisingly hard to find for some reason. I instead went with a metal bumper like I had on my XS Max. The “feet” on the back side of the bumper allow it to sit even and it doesn’t add much bulk at all. I added a ESR glass screen protector and I’m just waiting for my clear matte skin wrap for the back side so it’s protected on all sides.
 
I think it’s going to be very difficult to find one like that due to the thickness of the camera module. The whole back of the case would have to be pretty thick.

It would thicken the entire back of the case for sure, but I believe that lip around the camera bump only goes about 1.2mm. I would gladly take on that extra thickness to lose the wobble.

Has anyone come across any kind of case that’s not super bulky like the big Ottorbox cases that have a back that will sit flush on a table for the 12 Pro Max? The camera bump causing the care to wobble is a little annoying here on day 1.

OP, looks like this might be just what you’re looking for. The entire back of the case is thicker and lays flat on the table. Don’t know anything about the brand, just happened upon this on Amazon.

Thanks for that. Just pulled it up and the first review I saw said that it doesn’t protect the lens. Seen several like that where it appears they didn’t take the bigger sensor into account.

Bummer. I guess you’ll have slim pickings until more manufacturers get the correct 12PM measurements into their case designs.
 
My magbak case is very thin, has a slight raised lip around the cameras (enough to protect them), yet only the very slightest wobble if the very top left corner is pressed.

I just got the Mujjo case mentioned above. It doesn’t 100% solve the wobble issue, but for me I think it will be enough. There is still a small wobble when you press the upper left corner of the screen but that’s it. And I really like how it feels and looks. The buttons, especially the side button, are stiff, but I hope they’ll ease up after some use.

Hey guys, wanted to share that I picked up the dbrand case and there is no protrusion from the camera, it's nice and flush! It's their 'Grip' case which is also Magsafe compatible so it mounts right up to the ESR HaloLock vent car mount/charger I picked up on Amazon. Case is a bit pricey but having skin options was a nice touch and I added the $2 camera skin to match the back skin also. Wasn't an option on the product page for some reason had to find it on their site. Wanted to share for anybody else looking as I was and came across it in a Youtube video.
