Sienna looks too brown, orange silicon looks too orange lol - damn this is hard.

Anybody going with Black woven on Orange??

Tempted to use naked with the contrasting Orange
 
I bought the clear case and the orange silicon case.

The FineWoven color for the Cosmic Orange iPhone Pro didn't look good to me.

I usually buy and like the clear cases, but from the photos, it looks like the wireless charging area is all white and that looks terrible in the photos to me with the Orange iPhone. So, I got both and might end up just using the orange silicon case.
 
100% clear, and not that idiotic looking Apple "Clear" case that literally blocks out the whole back of the phone. I have no desire to hide this color, I will go 3rd party clear case.
Spigen has one I ordered off Amazon $18… but $40 on their web site. It’s MagSafe with completely clear back like a 16pro.

From a design standpoint; Sienna, Blue, and Black are all good choices. While Sienna might not be as contrast(y) it's brown enough that it's still warm in tone similar to the orange but not matchy-matchy as they say ha. If you want subtle and like tones then Sienna is it, the others are more striking and make a statement in the color scale.
 
My picks are purple fog or terra cotta silicone. Or purple or sienna TechWoven

I saw the green techwoven case that looked great on it. And as I approach my 43rd birthday in a couple weeks, I chose the orange phone so I can match it with the green and pretend I’m carrying a Michelangelo (or master chief) themed phone. Yes, I am very proud of myself. 😁

Got this JTech case on Amazon. Will update when iPhone arrives Friday.

I opted for (amongst others) a black leather case from DeCoded two years ago for my 15PM. And, to be honest, it's been my go to. It's aged well, the few drops it has experienced hasn't done any real damage to it. I'd be tempted to go DeCoded again, but the leather option they have covers up the camera plateau. I like the idea of having black again, but seems a shame to cover up the orange. I'm not really a fan of clear cases-I think I'm leaning more towards one of Apples TechWoven cases, but I'd like to get hands on with one first to see how it feels, and to see if it's going to be susceptible to marking like their fine woven was...
 
I received both the orange silicon and black tech woven and I'll be returning the orange silicon.

What made you make those decisions? I had contemplated orange on orange at one point... What is the techwoven like? Is it fairly slender/light, or does it feel bulky? I know it's personal to the person really, but I'm trying to get a 'virtual feel', it may influence my purchase prior to my Saturday collection.

The tech woven feels pretty nice to me. Has some grip and not overly bulky. I am also indifferent towards silicon as they seem to just not feel as nice to me over time. Also the orange was a little more pastel orange than I anticipated. To sum up, tech woven looks and feels nicer to me.

Thanks for the feedback. Ultimately, I am going in store on Sat so I can try one out then, but good to have some feedback prior. 👍🏻
