The fit with the leather case is perfect. Finish is great, the grip is sure both in the hand and on the surface it's placed on. I have the blue case and I live the colour too

Definitely the leather. It wears well and lasts long and has a great feel to it.

I would say the Apple Leather, but both are great cases. You really can't go wrong with either one.

I say they are different and not one better. I like leather in general and silicone for dirty conditions.

I bought the silicone one on the basis that beer and leather don’t go so well together !

It’s a personal preference thing, I prefer the Apple OEM Leather case, either the leather or the silicone one will fit the device perfectly and are well made. You can’t go wrong with either one.

I just got the XS about three weeks ago, and I had the gold model and just yesterday switched to the space grey. I had problems with the leather case fitting the gold and returned it for the silicone that fit it. Now around the camera the silicone does not fit my space grey? Has anybody had issues with this? They were both apple cases.

I have the space gray xs max with a black silicone case. No issues with fit around the camera. I’m actually planning on getting the midnight blue silicone as well this weekend.

I have never had issues with an Apple case. Just found it funny how I have had problems with two cases.

I’m wondering if you actually got a case made for the X & not the XS. The cameras are slightly different.

That might be the problem, I didn’t pay attention as it was at Best Buy

I prefer the feel of the silicone but, in the past anyway, they were lint magnets. Maybe I should try a newer one.
