Apple leather case

[Spencerdl]

Can verify. Anytime Spencer gets a new case, it’s only a matter of time before he’s in the black leather one

I also enjoy my leathers. I have the Berry and the Black and both have held up well; the Berry has gotten a lovely Patina. Definitely recommend!

LOL ...this is true

can anyone provide some pics ?

The Patina I’ve developed on the Berry

so its not good for protection?

I’ve dropped my phones in these cases & yes they get dings on them (it’s leather) but the phone is always fine. Just get one...you won’t regret it!

I agree with Rob!! I’ve had one (or several lol) for each device I’ve had since they released (I upgrade both phones every year) & they never disappoint. Some people freak out about the bottom being open but I’ve never had an issue with my devices getting scratched up or damaged because of it. The leather feels great & can take more of a beating than you’d think. I say go for it..you won’t regret it!

I recently dropped my 6S in the leather case and the phone itself got gauged up more than I thought it would.

I panicked and went out and bought a tech21 case and loved Te protection but ultimately ended up switching back to the leather case because I like the form factor that it keeps the phone at.

That’s just my $.02

I've dropped mine in the case and they've been ok, but with the bottom somewhat exposed, the right drop can be an issue. The bottom is uncovered but there is a lip there to help.

It’s decent, but it does not offer the best protection.

Everyone here loves their Apple leather cases, but man are they are slippery AF!!!
So sorry for your phone

Yep, the Apple leather cases have gotten slicker over time. Switched to Silicone for my 8 and X.

I got a Apple leather for my new 8 yesterday and it does add some grip and protection, the silicone cases I find too grippy and harder to slip in pockets .

I was having more trouble with my X silicone and lint from my pockets. The leather doesn't have that issue.

That sucks to hear. I would look at some third party leather cases.

I have 2  silicone cases that I love. The only  leather case that I thought had a great non slick texture was the product red color, it’s a beautiful color too, a deeper red.. all the rest were so slick... IMO

The Burkley leather case is another awesome case, especially the pebbled leather!

The Burkley leather was a really nice case but I found it heavier than the Apple .

Yeah they are.. but with the way I am with cases... sometimes a little added weight or bulk is ok, then other times I just want the slimmest case on!

Wow that was an unlucky drop. That sucks!! I’ve dropped mine plenty of times without any damage to the phone. I guess it just depends on how it hits the ground. I still love the cases though, & my dropping my phone was not due to the so called slickness....it was pure clumsiness. I don’t even think it’s slick at all. I mean it’s leather!!! Hopefully this doesn’t change your mind about the case. They are beautiful.
