Fuck everything with a material that looks like that idk if it’s an adhesive problem but the Surface keyboards like that are simply the worst
That’s why I just get those $12 generic clear phone cases with free screen protectors on amazon. My current case is 3 years old and looks perfectly fine.
Oh just get a Spiggan and stop settling for garbage. They’re cheap and handle anything you throw at them.
Incipio cases are nice aswell
I wouldn’t call those $12 cases garbage. My case is $8 and it’s really high quality. It’s really slim but slightly raised on the corners by like 1mm for a little extra protection.
Wrong wording, correct would be:
They’re cheap and handle anything you throw them at.
I always get Spigen. Low cost, lasts forever. Highly recommend.
Thanks for the spelling correction 😉
Dude I had to look it up from my Amazon history, haha.
Is used to like the leather cases that these things replaced. These things are such a downgrade.
I had a genuine Apple leather case for an iPhone XS that I got maybe two years ago on step discount. I expected it to age nicely but it just got weird bumps and pocks on the edges.
Both Bullstrap and Ryan London do a leather case that’s higher quality and more durable than the first-party Apple cases ever were.
I think between my family and I, we have purchased three Apple cases over the years. All three didn’t survive their first year. Apple cases are a terrible investment. They are expensive, don’t protect your screen, and aren’t durable. They start to look like crap over time too.
Apple cases are shit. Good thing yours is still in warranty. Take it back and they’ll replace it immediately. Warranty is a year (I literally just replaced mine). Also AppleCare covers it, so even if you’re out of warranty for the case, if your phone is in warranty you can still get it replaced.
Or, you know, buy a better case from a more reputable company.
Yes I know what community this is and that I’ll just get downvoted. But if it’s accepted that you have to rely on warranty because the product is bad, then why the heck would one support that demonstrably bad product?
To cut costs!
I had an iPhone X with an Apple black leather case for 4 years and it was good, now I have the iPhone 14 with an Apple purple leather case for over a year and it’s mostly lost color and became black, but the integrity is ok.
Ok sure, I don’t disagree with that. Thanks for the honest answer.
But you’re right. A friend got the fine woven and it lasted 3 months.
Ouch. But yeah, I totally get it: if it’s still cheaper to just replace it a lot, that’s valid. Either people not buying it or people replacing it a lot (for free) should hypothetically have the same effect for Apple.
Edit: unless the cost of the Apple case up front is significantly higher than other options! In which case the math may not work out cleanly. And of course, the time taken for the warranty stuff = money.
Inside of EU it has to be 2 years.
mine to, Im really disappointed.
Queue Aerosmith : 🎼🎵"We’re peeling on the edge" 🎶
I’ve got an Apple leather case from 2019. Edges are peeling though which started about a year ago max. Sounds like newer ones aren’t as good
Mine is fine. I did spray mine with scotchgard though.
Duck tape would have worked better
I’ve been using mine since launch day and I’m amazed by how good it still looks. I thought it would age very poorly. I guess mileage varies.
wow! Is the case really that bad?
don’t take it wrong, did your wife do anything to the case or does it just turn like that under normal circumstances?
My silicone case is about 1.5 years old and the corners are starting to peel. First and last Apple case for me. I think it was $70 (cad). I feel like I should email Tim to complain.
