The quality of these Apple should be ashamed of, they’ve cut corners and I honestly feel cheated by them about these. Initially I thought I could clean the black off, until I found out they all start black with a thin layer of colour over that. So my loved expensive device lives in a crap looking poor quality case. So I resorted back to the ‘in the past’ decent leather cases, only this went black in places where they cheaped-out on that too. My silicone MagSafe before didn’t last long before getting shiny edges and chunks breaking off and then cracking near the port hole. I tried to use it but hated it and seemed like a $1 case, I took it on/off a couple of times and decided I’m not have this pos damage my iPhone body. Then when using you have the stupid white MagSafe bits showing to top things off which I didn’t like personally. The inner edges were hard and quite sharp like a cheap junk case, biggest waste of money on a case I bought. I bought one direct though the store so definitively genuine and immediately was worried it will damage my iPhone, like chip paint colour off etc. So what the fuck? Don’t we pay the Apple tax for higher quality materials and craftsmanship? Or is that a thing of the past and now it’s a race to the fucking bottom to increase profits like every other shitty company? I swore Apple engineered the hell out of even the simple products like their cases to give their customers the most protection. I can only imagine how terribly this thing is going to wear and hold up, never mind whatever protection is sacrificed by being so thin and flimsy, rather than thicker, more shock absorbing leather.īecause not only did the iPhone X leather case look and feel fantastic, but it also took some of the gnarliest spills and my phone never cracked. It genuinely feels like something I would expect a knock off Apple leather case to feel like, based on the quality I am used to. It is so much flimsier than my iPhone X case, and the leather quality is absolutely laughable.

Now the 13 Pro Max leather case has once again taken me by surprise. Would always recommend the leather case to my friends. It was great quality leather with enough thickness to really feel high quality, and patina’d fantastically. The Apple leather case for the X originally took me by surprise. I just upgraded from an iPhone X to a 13 Pro Max.
