Would you say the color of the case in this photo is accurate to real life? To me it’s looking more red than brown in the sunlight
It’s definitely brown but has red/brick hues in it. It all depends on the lighting.

Lighting makes a huge difference. Direct sunlight vs. shade.

Did apple finally make a case that doesn’t have the color peel off? I had the saddle brown for my 12 pro max and it was looking ugly compared to xs max cases. So far I’m waiting on my bullstrap case but if that’s new then i might cancel and for that.
It’s too early to tell about the peel but so far the Umber seems to be doing better than previous brown cases over the past few years.

This is an odd request but if anyone has a 14 pro max in ink leather with tiger stripes they want to part with please let me know. I really want one but really want it with tiger stripes. Worth a shot!

I would have gladly but a few days too late as I sent my last one for return. Felt cheap and no different quality they have been selling for the past two years.
 
I tried Ink, I tried Umber, then for the hell of it I tried the new Nomad modern leather case. I love the Nomad case. I’m generally not clumsy and don’t drop my phones, I didn’t drop my 12 Pro max in 2 years. But the extra protection with the Nomad case in comparison to the Apple leather case is unparalleled. I’m sticking with the Nomad. It’s a beauty. Rubber and all.

That IS nice!
$37 with $10 off coupon on US Amazon (as of Sat 10-1). Not bad!


Bought the 14 pro version. Looking forward to it.

Has anyone found a good leather wallet case yet? I've always loved the Twelve South BookBook but any other recommendations?
 
Yes, just daily use. No other special treating. It is almost constantly in my hand and the process comes naturally. Some parts (especially around the camera) where my palm and my fingers do not get so much contact with the case are not so dark. I have bought a Saphir Renovateur to treat the case at some point but I think I will wait for some more natural patina process before going for some treatment.
