Colors for Alleged 'TechWoven' iPhone 17 Cases Shown Off in New Images

[MacRumors]

Apple is designing new "TechWoven" cases for the iPhone 17, with photos of some of the alleged case colors shared today by leaker Majin Bu.

The cases feature a muted, fabric design in colors that appear to include black, blue, green, purple, and orange. The TechWoven cases will reportedly replace the fabric-like FineWoven casesthat Apple discontinued with the iPhone 16 launch. The FineWoven cases were not popular with customers due to their penchant for staining and issues with durability. The fabric of the TechWoven case has supposedly been "redesigned for greater durability."

Majin Bu claims that the cases will include metallic buttons with "improved tactile feedback," a Camera Control button, MagSafe compatibility, and two small holes at the bottom for attaching a crossbody strap or accessories. The cases appear to be for the iPhone 17 Pro models that are rumored to have a horizontal camera bar given the size of the camera cutout, but Bu says the TechWoven cases will be available for all of the iPhone 17 models.

It is unclear as of yet if these cases are real, but we will find out in less than a month when Apple unveils the new iPhone 17 models.

The cutout for Camera Control and the bit of (what looks like) damage on the blue case says enough for me

I also still don’t understand why the Apple logo is in different places on the case and phone, it’s not something serious but it’s just pretty odd

Looks like complete garbage bring back leather

 

[TheColtr]

I like the fabric look

They don't look very sanitation-friendly.

Probably wouldn't want to be holding someone else's phone that has one of these on it. Probably not even good for the owner.

Don't the designers at Apple think about these kinds of issues?

I'm just excited for NO MORE CAMERA WOBBLE!!!

 

[Colpeas]

Instead of reinventing the wheel, why don’t they bring back leather? I don’t see this working very well.

Are you serious? Our phones in general are as unsanitary as a public toilet seat and you are worried about these cases??? 😂

I'll stick with 3rd party options

 

[thefrost]

Not excited by whatever this is.

 

[DHagan4755]

I don't use a case but if I did this would definitely be a hard pass for me.

5 shades of mud made from terribly cheap material at the bargain selling price of 69€.

 

[Macatize]

They already look dirty.

 

[Eric_WVGG]

uneven buttons

 

[Donkey Man]

Absolutely hideous - genuine leather only, please, Sydney Sweeney style.

3rd party leather case for me

Since the Apple logo on the cases isn't so ugly in the middle in the photo, I hope Apple left the logo where it always was. So far in the middle, as in some pictures, just looks totally unfamiliar and, in my opinion, ugly. The way the logo is on the cases, it looks much better and nicer.

If Apple really did place the logo further down and leave it in its original (better and more attractive) position on the cases, it would be absolutely weird if the Apple logo were placed differently everywhere.

look like beat up old library books. dunno why anyone would buy an apple case. it not their strong suit and the cost is insane.

 

[sherwinzadeh]

Apple should bring back leather. Offset the cow's fart by planting a tree.

Leather was also garbage, very flimsy and it collects oils and dirt. That old leather look everyone loves is actually just the build-up of oils and dirt.

Can someone PLEASE explain to me - seriously - why Apple can't just make "faux" pu leather cases that appear to be leather without, you know, actually being leather? There are plenty of them out there, what's the problem?

 

[Lioness~]

Happy for my midnight 13 mini in a midnight leather case.
None of them are going anywhere, soon.

 

[Pitogyro]

Ugly as sin

 

[MuGeN PoWeR]

Bring Leather back!!!!

They tried and what we got was FineWoven.
