Apple leather iPhone case

One of my very favouriteiPhoneaccessories isApple’s leatheriPhone case. I’ve been buying them at least since the iPhone X, if not before, and while they’re laughably expensive the reason I keep coming back to them is because they’re very, very good. So I’m sad to hear that Apple may not be making them any more.

A new rumour suggests that the Apple Leather Case will be no more once theiPhone 15launches. Although the leaker, DuanRui onTwitter, isn’t someone I’ve heard of, this seems too specific a leak to be somebody making stuff up for clout chasing; if you were going for that you’d be posting that the iPhone 15 had seventeen cameras, a folding display and was powered via a room temperature semiconductor. So I’m inclined to take this one seriously.

The leak is based on sources from Chinese social media, where we’ve seen Apple information leak before. And the more established leaker ShrimpApplePro and the Mac news site 9to5Mac both say that their sources are telling them the same.

What’s happening to the iPhone leather case?

My concern here isn’t so much how it looks, because even fairly cheap vegan leather can look quite convincing in the right shades. I’m more concerned about how it wears, because like many people I think leather looks best when it’s got a bit of life to it and its pristine appearance has become as wrinkled and aged as my face, but hopefully better looking. I think when I go for my iPhone 15 I might go for a cheaper case first until I see how other people’s cases are wearing.
