When Apple unveiled the iPhone 12, it also announced a range of new cases, including a leather case with MagSafe that won't be available until Friday, November 6. If you're hankering after a leather case for your iPhone 12 but have no intention of using MagSafe, which incidentally can cause cosmetic damage to leather, Dutch accessory maker Mujjo recently announced its latest leather case range via press release.

After some delay, the new iPhone 12 line-up is finally here, and with no leather cases available from Apple, it's a good thing we're here for you. Our new range of cases have been updated to match the flat, angular (and pretty smart) edges while subtle curves still assert themselves in the corners – and they look great. In fact, the new contours complement our well-known clean designs and work particularly well with the sharp stitching lines found on our wallet cases.

The cases are made of full-grain, vegetable tanned leather and lined with Japanese microfiber that has a satin finish. The camera opening and mute button feature a chamfer that curves inwards, and the volume and power buttons are covered in leather that has a responsive design. There's also a 1mm bezel around the edges of the screen to protect it from harsh surfaces.

The new cases are available in Low-key Black, Signature Tan, Monaco Blue, and Slate Green. In addition, Mujjo offers slimline wallet versions of its cases, allowing you to carry cards, bank notes, and similar items on the back of the case.

Compatible with iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max, the cases start at $44.90, ranging up to $54.90, and are available from the Mujjo website, which offers worldwide shipping. For more iPhone 12 case options, be sure to check out our dedicated buyer's guide.

From the pictures it looks like they can fit 1-2 cards. Could they fit 3? My mother seems to love carrying phone and cards at the same time. Trying to find the best leather solution for her. Other option is the Bellroy card case-which fits 3 but is much thicker, i believe.

Apple's version is designed to fit up to 3. This one wouldn't be ideally presumably because the wallet is permanently attached so you won't be able to charge (or at least shouldn't) with cards in between the phone and the wireless charger. So with these you would need to take out all your cards each time you want to charge wirelessly.

I have a Bellroy wallet, and it is great: minimalistic and has lasted 6+ years. I haven't tried the wallet cases.

I really want to give the Apple MagSafe wallet a try, but I saw MKBHD's review, and it falls off way too easily.

I still do worry about how very clever people who design these things actually think about security
And I mean not only case makes such as this but Apple as well.

It's as if they need to employ a "Common Sense" person to make them stop and think.

Why would you EVER want your Credit of other cards hanging on the back of a case?
So when you turn your phone around and notice, oh, the cards gone.
Did it fall out somewhere? What happened? Might someone have took it?
I don't know. I never noticed it as it's on the back.

I mean come on really. Sure it's a neat and tidy concept, but in the real day to day world it's a bad idea.

This is great news. I love the Mujjo for my iPhone XR. Since Apple isn't going with leather, I'm going for another Mujjo. I could care less about Mag Safe anyway. Mujjo works fine with other wireless chargers.

Does the case shield the cards from the MagSafe magnets? This is something that all wallet cases really need to do now, like Apple's leather wallet does.

Yeah what you posted makes zero sense to anyone who has used a slim-type wallet since cards don’t just “fall out.” With these types of wallets getting a card out intentionally requires a bit of work.

Nor is it apparent how the wallet being attached to something else would make cards more prone to falling out.

Are people actually carrying their cc on back of their phones? Why would you do that?

Yup, I feel the same way. And it’s mainly a security issue where I have my credit cards protected from RFID skimming in a protective sleeve, I wouldn’t want them exposed on the back of a phone case. Plus, there’s always a concern where if one of the cards were to fall out, that would make me paranoid. I’d rather just keep my credit cards separate away from my iPhone case, being how much it’s handled and manipulated.

No mag safe? Better get back to the drawing board, Mujjo.

Our Leather Cases and Leather Wallet Cases are fully compatible with all Qi-certified wireless chargers, including Apple’s MagSafe Charger. With our Leather Cases, you’ll have the full magnetic alignment experience. The magnets are not strong enough to penetrate through the layers of our Leather Wallet Cases to use the alignment feature, but wireless charging still works perfectly.

I like the minimalist design and card holders. These days I just walk around with a license and one credit card anyway, but with the phone in a different pocket. These look beautifully made I must say.

I do take your point that is you make the case/slit/pouch tight enough of a fit, then it may be hard for a card to simply slip out.
It's a shame with Apple's own card holder that the whole holder can so easily slip off the read of the phone due to the weak magnetic connection.

Hey there! I can happily confirm that our cases can fit up to three cards :)

Hey there! Credit or debit cards in our leather wallet cases are unlikely to be affected by the MagSafe magnets inside the iPhone 12 device. The ‘strong’ magnets are inside the MagSafe accessories, not in the phone itself.

It is also worth mentioning that nowadays most cards and readers have switched from using a magnetic strip to a EMV chip, that cannot be harmed by magnets.

I hope this information helps :)

Thank you! I have actually been trying to find the capacity for Apple's wallet as well. Thank you, that's a good point.

I actually just purchased a Bellroy Hide & Seek wallet for myself and I really enjoy it so far. I also have a leather phone case coming from them for the 12 pro max. Very good point on MKBHD's review- I saw it as well and that really turned me off on Apple's wallet. Maybe I will get one to let mother try it out anyway but let's see. Personally, I'm just a slim, simple leather case guy.

Appreciate you guy's help and views.
