How are Silicone Cases this year? Your experience? I’m thinking to buy, as usual per each of my iPhone early or later, the red product. How is about peeling and lint? Same old “problems”?

Better go on leather case, its only 10 bucks more expensive and will eventually gets ''patina'' overtime

This is year the leather seems not so good for what I saw in the patina proud topic and about corner popping off.

Lint attraction is only a real annoyance the first 5 (or so ) days of use. Some users are still experiencing peeling and cracking on the corners.

I hoped that with squared edges cracking and peeling had improved 😬
 
Apple cases are a quick and simple solution, of course, yet they are not necessarily the best, both quality-wise and price-wise. I would suggest looking elsewhere. 🖐
 
They are not worth it if you dont plan to use Magsafe
You could save money and buy another cases from third party such as ESR cases

I’ve had three Apple leather cases now (2 on mini, one on Pro) and none have had the corners popping out issue. Regarding the patina, I’ve settled on black so I don’t have to worry about it. If you’re not using MagSafe then you’re probably better off with another brand but I love my wallet/leather case combo.

Thank you for each one share his/her advices about buying something else 😅 but I’m asking about silicone case because I want the red product! I’m not interested in other cases now 😬
 
Like every time, I’m not able to resist to buy the red product silicone case 😅

The Red Product is still my favourite color for each iPhone. But this time the corner popping “gate” is a little bit annoying.
