As someone who has more cases than needed, I really liked the looks of the Apple leather iPhone X case in saddle brown. What I didn’t like was the price tag so I went on Amazon to see what I could get for less money. Upon searching I found this Apple iPhone X Leather Case - iPulse [Dallas Series] Full Grain Leather Snap On Card Holder Case - [Ultra Slim] [Hard Back Cover] [Sensitive Buttons]

It had decent reviews and is less than half the cost of the Apple case so I figured it was worth a try.

I think it looks great. Fit and finish is great. The card slots on the back are a bonus even though I won’t use them. Wireless charging works fine. It has a slight raised edge around the screen even with my glass screen protector so laying the phone face down is no problem. The buttons all work great and have a nice feel. Maybe the mute switch cutout could have been slightly bigger.

I have had Apple leather cases on previous iPhones. Comparing quality per dollar spent, the Apple case doesn’t have anything on this one. I might pick up the black one too and have less money in 2 of these vs the Apple one.
