Abyss Blue leather case? 🤔

You sure it wasn't midnight?

I asked the Apple guy and he said "Abyss Blue leather," which threw me off guard.


And it did look pretty darn dark blue to me, why I took the photo...But I am seeing NOTHING online about this case.

Ok, so...um, I feel stupid...because I actually have Midnight and it doesn't look THIS blue. (Could it be the Apple Store lighting?? ugh, lol)

I have to go back and look at that case again. Clearly I am confused.

No need to feel stupid, apple store worker was feeding you the wrong info.

It’s 100% the midnight leather case, seems like that apple store worker has no idea what his on about lol.

Anyone has the alpine green model with leather case in midnight? I have doubts between that color and green for the case…
Here’s a couple of pics of my green phone with midnight case

I saw it last night in person, man that is a nice looking phone color!

Out of curiosity, I did ask Apple employees if trading in a 6 month old Graphite to the Alpine Green is possible. That's a flat out no. (The two employees even seemed upset themselves because "they couldn't do it," stated "believe me, I tired")

Anyway, in some goofy way I - and my wallet - was relieved to hear that because my spontaneous self would have given in and traded right then and there...probably shelling out a few $$ more. LOL

ALSO...unrelated to the green phone, the Apple Store had a leather Apple dark blue case, this is a leather Abyss Blue.

Ok, sorry if this may sound stupid...I actually had no idea this came in leather for the 13/13 Pro's (I know they have it in silicone.) No idea, I never saw this color option on the Apple site so this was new to me. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Abyss Blue Leather

That case looks iffy.

Is that not the midnight blue case for the 12/12pro?

The leather cases for the 13/13Pro don't have that style of plastic camera surround

No, this is in fact Midnight Blue for 13 Pro Max. The Apple Store guy was wrong...but still, it really did look far more lighter / blue'ish in the store compared to my Midnight case. (I am way past due for an eye exam actually, lol)

I still have the Baltic Blue case for my now gone 12 PM, *old cases for X, XSMax, quite a few for 12PM, even an 11 ProMax (which I never owned) not even used once piling up here. 🙄

Many ppl rocking their phones naked?

I am, for the last few weeks now.



Worst case, I can get a replacement overnighted to me thanks to Applecare. I have a cheap Spigen case that yellowed, an Apple leather case that peeled on the sides already, and an apple clear case that cracked a week after I bought it. For the money and the hassles of dealing with warranty on a case, I’ll deal with applecare. Should have just gone caseless from the start and saved the cash lol.

Have a couple of screen scratches (I hate screen protectors with a passion, and it fell under my car seat and must have hit some gravel that’s under there from the winter) so I’m not really worried about cosmetic damage anymore. Like I said, if I drop it and it breaks, that’s why I bought the applecare. I went caseless for the last year and a half I owned my 11 pro max, too. And with my Jet black 7 plus and my iPhone X. I drop it more with a case than without, ironically.

Only thing on my phone now is my MagSafe popsocket with my kitties on it.
 
You know it. 🤣

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not a ugly color, but it’s got nothing on my sierra blue goddess.



Now now, don’t push it. 😆

Think I’m more into my lighter colors when it comes to iPhones, most of my previous iPhones have been silver or white, only the iPhone 4 & 5 were black.

My soul is already dark enough as it is. 😂

You know it’s all about that starlight braided solo loop and sierra blue combo. 😜
