The Apple ones seem a little chunky, are there any thin/light alternatives?

Ideally with a metal plate built in, and without a logo (quite rare these days...).

Apple’s is probably the slimmest out there this year. Have you tried one? They’re not chunky at all.
Interesting, thanks. In previously years they've added a little too much bulk and therefore weight. Haven't tried them this year though...

Buy the Apple leather one from Amazon and return it if you don't like it. Simple.

Take a look a totallee’s or peel’s “leather” case if it’s still made. Lol it’s the thinnest shell with a “leather” back.
Those cases are such ripoffs. Charging $35 for thin plastic case is highway robber. I’m using a $13 case like the above. It’s the same material and everything.

Yep. I should have added /sarcasm to the end of my post. I’ve found the exact same cases for $1.50 on aliexpress. 😉😘
