Apart the the clear case, which Apple silicone or leather case colors match the née Sierra Blue?

Or is it best to use the new Sierra Blue model without a case?

Also deciding on this. None of the leather color really goes well with Sierra blue.
Maybe I will get the blue jay silicone and wait for a refresh on the leather color.
 
I think just like the pacific blue last year, the case options will be limited.

Probably have to use one case through the year.

Even if we use dBrand skins, the options are limited for Sierra Blue.

Blue Jay seems closest to a match. But any of them would look good on the blue phone, considering that the cases completely obscure the phone's color (except for the camera module). Marigold, Chalk Pink, and Pink Pomelo offer nice contrast.
 
I think Sierra Blue will look even better in live pics/videos and in person. I am just wondering how it will look in a ultra minimalist black case, i.e. Air Case…?
 
You're welcome 😅👇

Can't wait for my Sierra Blue Max with the deep cherry leather case!

You like the look of a dark case for a light colored phone?

Sierra Blue looks okay with the green though and the blue cases. Best with a clear case or with a clear skin.

Or if you have the courage, without any skins or cases.

It's not my ideal color combo, but I usually switch between a clear case and an Apple leather case. I think Sierra Blue will look great in a clear case, and the dark cherry is dope enough of a color that the blue doesn't bother me with it.

Basically, the little patch of blue wasn't enough to make me go silver. It's just too cool!

Yellow brown for me.
Would prefer something a bit darker like saddle.

But until I find something I like better the yellow brown will look great to me. And I assume it will darken and get some nice patina.

I’m doing the same combo. Not Max though.
I think it will look even better once the leather starts to patina.

Also got a Midnight silicone case for when I go to the gym.
 
Was going to get midnight hoping it was a dark shade of blue but thats very black.

So stuck in-between cherry and transparent. Need to clarify if the findmy wallet works with the iPhone 13 clear case though.
 
I ordered midnight leather and dark cherry. Will return whichever I like least. I originally ordered the midnight because I was going to get the graphite phone but I have literally had that color for I think the last three or four years and I’m bored with it because I never feel like my phone is new so this year I decided to go with Sierra blue iPhone pro max 13 and I just really like the way it looks with the dark cherry. So once I get the phone on the 24th which I’ve already placed my order for yay I will decide which color looks best on it and then I’ll return one of the cases
 
Sierra Blue Max + Golden Brown leather for me. I had blue leather with my blue 12 Max and wish they offered it again this year. However, the blue never developed a patina, just scratches and marks that you can only see up close and in bright light. Brown will do much better for a patina.
 
This year I’m getting a cheap clear case and apple care. I will dabble going caseless here and there and if it drops I’ll pay the $100 and get a new one :)

I’m considering doing the same. I always get apple care anyway.

I’ve purchased a Spigen ultra hybrid clear case. My wife has one on her purple 12 and it looks good.

I did have a silicon case on my 12 pro, but didn’t like how it attracted dust and lint, so got the blue leather. A shame there isn’t a blue of some shade in leather this time.

I’ll see how others go with the leather and may grab one after seeing a few combos to pick which I prefer.

I miss the gorgeous fuchsia (the color the original poster posted). THAT was a striking case!
