iPhone 12 series leather case that wow-ed you

Just ordered a Bullstrap in Ocean for 12 PM. Looking forward to it

I have one at home. The leather quality and smell are fantastic but I’m a little picky (now everybody take note of how I didn’t use a clinically diagnosed psychological ailment I don’t actually have to convey this) so the sides being a little uneven was kind of a dealbreaker for me. I also really like my MagSafe wallet.

Lol when did people stop using “picky”and started using a incorrectly used mental health diagnosis. That’s awesome.

Haha. But, I am really waiting to see the pictures of that one, plus some impressions. It does look unique. Their wood cases are interesting too!

I found this, but gives a fair idea

Did you receive the pad & quill case yet? I’m curious to see what it looks like on the 12 series phone.

Not just here it’s pop culture.

Yes, unfortunately it is. A guy at work who is over 50 came in one day and all he could do is find an opportunity to say he rocked this or that and he was rocking this or that. I said "Really? You're not 12 years old, stop talking like an idiot." :rolleyes:

And to stay on the topic, I liked my Bullstrap case until the lip it has that offered lens protection went down and is now flush with the highest of the three lenses. I've now stopped using that case because of it.
 
I started this thread. But, I think at this point, The Burkley case I got a month and a half back is the best for me. It is made of great leather, and let’s my silver iPhone show up. The leather itself is like tank. It adds a “slight “ bulk, but it is going to protect the phone on a drop for sure. This is Burnished red on silver 12 Pro.

Looks nice.

I’d be scared to use it, too many exposed parts of the device for my liking.

Oh wow very nice. No MagSafe I take it?
 
Don’t know if it’s possible to be wowed by a phone case... however, I am still extremely happy about the look and feel of this bellroy case on my PB 12 Pro.

Looks good. How are the buttons and case tightness? Will it withstand a few drops?

Considering getting the toffee coloured one but there are hardly any reviews online.

Case fits very well and tight... corners show no movement at all. Buttons take a firm pressing, however, they’ve always been like that and I am used to them.
I’ve dropped the phone a couple times onto ceramic tile floor from standing height with no issues.
Going on a few months, other than a couple minor scuffs, the case still looks as new, with virtually no color change.

coming from a 7+ with Apple leather... this PB 12 Pro with blue bellroy feels very nice in hand... and looks great.

Nice! Similar design to the Nomad cases. That blue is amazing though.

Want this with MagSafe.
Got bored with the red apple leather, using it without a case again and have to say. It’s lovely. these people designed this phone to be used without a case I say. Frosted back makes the biggest difference.
