I guess depending on shame levels “give it a go”. I think the above suggestion of selling it on eBay etc is more appropriate. Everyone is different though.
@Boardiesboi am I tripping, that’s a sierra blue iPhone right? Not graphite 😂
Starting to like the golden brown leather case, thinking of picking it up tomorrow from apple, you reckon it goes well with sierra blue?

The colour balance is off in this pic. Yes it's Sierra blue - Look at his other pics here
Leather Cases - Patina Proud Photos
I bought the Midnight leather a few weeks ago and love it on my Sierra Blue Max. I saw the Golden Brown online and hated it. Went into the Apple Store today and picked it up after seeing it in person. Maybe it’s the autumn vibes here in the Pacific Northwest but I’m loving it on my phone. The...

I like this the least out of all the leather cases.
IMO, the edges will go dark quickly and it's won't be a good look. Just look at all the lighter coloured cases from past years in the leather cases patina thread.

I’m hoping they’re using a different leather this year.
I’m not going into the accessories thread anymore. 🤦♂️😂
@Boardiesboi Might be onto a winner here, that’s if it patinas well, lovely color combo. 👌
If it doesn’t patina well, apple store replacement here I come. 😁😂

Good luck trying to argue that “dirty” is not wear and tear lol
Sorry meant if it doesn’t patina well lol.
Holding out hope, since you said the cases smells like leather this year. 👃🐂😂
I’ll blame you, if it doesn’t patina well. 😂
Same guy who posted the golden brown case posted this “blue jay”.
The colour balance is his pics are completely off and misleading.
I’ve given up on trusting photos when it comes to case colors, must be the camera his using and the lighting conditions, even the golden brown case looks different in both photos above. 🤔
If I don’t like it, I’ll be getting it for free, one poster said apple isn’t taking back cases, because of covid, they are refunding people and letting them keep the case. 😂
Joking, I’ll be keeping it.
Looks decent in the pic apple has up on their store.
@Boardiesboi apple hasn’t shipped my free case yet, says we’re processing your order, ships in 2 days, guessing I won’t get any notifications for a couple of days, correct?
Nothing in the apple store app.
Only a email.

They must be low in stock. If you tried to buy a green leather case now in the Apple Store app, it quotes 7/10 to 11/10 as the delivery date. So you won't get any updates until maybe Monday earliest.
If it's a replacement case, I don't think you can track it in the Apple Store app or under your Apple ID.
I returned two cases in the mail no issues. Dropped them off at TNT last Friday, got refund yesterday.
Ahh that explains it, I’m not in a rush anymore, since it’s free. 😂
I’ll let you know how the golden brown leather case looks tomorrow, you might have a 5th case arriving soon. 😳😂
Thanks for clearing it up for me.
Zollotech videos normally show pretty accurate colors when it comes to the cases.
Was worried it might be a mustard color, definitely brown in his video, he actually prefers it out of all the colors.
Hopefully it patinas into a darker brown over time, or it’s $95 down the drain. 😬😂
Sierra blue rocking the golden brown 👌

I got those gsp off Amazon you have. Have you noticed a grey shadow effect when outside in light mode? Not noticable inside or outside in dark mode.
Where is the shadow effect? All over or the edges?
I’m pretty happy with mine and it looks normal to me. In any case they’re only $5 a pop lol
Still waiting on my case from apple. Ordered the day they went live, I ordered some Haviannas a day earlier and they had been stuck in the same location so hopefully it arrives tomorrow. Started using my 13 yesterday and its making me very nervous without a case.
Yeah sort of dark then light stripes verticle from top right corner to bottom left, but hard to explain. Don’t give a rats how much they are just wondering if it’s a faulty one I have on, first one I stuffed so only have one left, should of just stuck to my trusty spigen, everything takes so flipping long to arrive, my apple case shipped today but won’t arrive till next Tuesday/Wednesday.
Join the club, shipped today might see it on Wednesday, should of bought one from Amazon.
