I have a white 12, and I can’t decide between the saddle brown and the California poppy!! I usually get black, but I want to try something different. I know the saddle brown ages well, but I wonder about the poppy just starting to look dirty.
Got a tip for us?

Perfect! I've also ordered mine from there today, so looking forward to receiving it!
Tried my best with an SE 2020

I normally get Black and Saddle Brown, but that California Poppy color looked so nice and vibrant.
I know lighter leather color Apple cases don’t usually age well so I’m hoping to see just a bit of how it’ll do within two weeks.

Whoooo that California poppy is looking delicious.
Baltic blue and saddle brown leather case for the 12 Pro.
Black leather case for the 12 Pro Max.
The case feels supple and soft in the hand and lighter and slimmer than the silicone case.
I like the Baltic blue the best. It’s a classy and elegant look. I think the patina on this will look amazing.
The camera cut out of the Pro Max is bigger than the Pro, and the plastic bumper has a raised lip protruding out of the surface of the leather. Not a fan.

I went with the Saddle Brown case. Here’s my old (3 years) Saddle Brown case next to my new case:
I really like how both look. The old Saddle Brown color really was light when I got it, but developed a nice patina and protected my old iPhone well over the years. It was a no-brainer to stick with an Apple leather case.

Digging the California Poppy and Saddle Bown. Ordered one of each for my 12PM Silver to try out. ThX For the pics.
Spot on here.
There are many that think Apple’s cases are overpriced but split the £60 over the the 12/24/36 months you’ll own the phone and monthly cost for the protection is well worth it. And while there are many leather cases out there nothing comes close to the quality of Apple’s

I’ve ordered what I always get; the black and the saddle brown. Managed to get both off Amazon for £48 each.
On a side note; Am I the only one who doesn’t like the Californian Poppy?

Nope. I’m with you, not a fan at all. It will patina horribly too
Out with the old, in with the new. Now just have to wait patiently for my phone to arrive. I can’t wait to see how these generation age. According to Apple these are not European leather

Interesting. Where is the leather sourced from this year? I may order one today.
Returned my black leather. I liked the esr much better and for more than 50% less.
No, but our public roads are probably in worse shape than N Korea’s. (PA) 🤣
