I’m planning on getting the silicone case this year since there are no leather cases this year.
How has the silicone case been for you after using a year?
I do a very hands on job for work and usually gets very dusty and dirty. Do you think the case will hold up for a long time?
 
Not great in my opinion. The sides wear and go shiny quickly. I have quite greasy hands also so they look a mess quickly. Shame as the fit is great and they look good when new. I had a white one which was better but they don’t do them in white anymore.

The white silicone cases have always been my go-to. Got black and Clay this time.

3 years? No, it will have some wear and may start to separate In the corners.
1 year? Yes, it will still protect the phone and look like a 1 year old case.
 
My go to cases for the last 3 phones have been the white Apple Silicone case. The only damage to any of them was when I dropped the phone. Protected the phone but chipped the edge. The white was tougher to keep clean but I was able to keep it looking like new by using whitening toothpaste. Silly I know but it worked slick. I was bummed when they didn’t offer a white silicone this for the 15 Pro. I have the clay and black for my new phone. I tried some third party cases but couldn’t find any that were close to the Apple case.
