I wonder if the edges on these will just blacken out like the BB or SB color, keep us updated!
We shall see. I believe it depends on how the owner treats the case and what it comes in contact with. Even with a case, I tend to treat my phone like I would if I was caseless.
 
Does anyone have a pic of the saddle brown 12 case just natural and unaltered after all these months? Want to see just how the sides ended up darkening
 
Saddlebrown and black. A good looking combo IMO. Yes I know the saddlebrown isn’t holding up like it used to, but there’s still something about apples cases. I also have the black loop band and case, thus the wallet being older and more patina’d than the new case.

Yes. The special/novelty of Apple cases is the price. 😁 I’m kidding; I have had several Apple cases and I do have one got my mini. That is a nice combo though, the saddle brown and black.

Don't think anyone has posted yet, so I will - bought Deep Violet via curbside pickup at our local store today! Pictured by my balcony door, looks more blue in the photos. Very reminiscent of aubergine.
Yeah I was thinking the same. It's more like a navy blue with a hue of purple. I think they kinda missed the mark. Debating returning mine.
 
Mod note
I have removed several posts as off topic as they were discussing non Apple cases. This thread is specifically for discussion of Apple leather cases. If you want to discuss third party cases please use a separate thread
As the thread starter, I'm cool with other cases being displayed to show their patina
 
Sure - 1 is on my phone (same lighting as before), 2 - front of the phone (same lighting as before), 3 and 4 - artificial lighting. I've been trying to find real-world reviews and photos and couldn't anywhere!!
Is your phone the silver or gold model? I'm trying to see how it grabs the gold...
 
That looks really nice especially with that natural lines that it has
Not sure I'm into it. My mother (who humors me about these things) said it looks more blueberry... now that's all I can see. Not sure I like it. I loved the aubergine. I think they missed the mark here
 
A thread for those who wants to share Non Apple Leather Case (Third Party Cases). Those using Nomad, Bullstrap, Decoded, Mujjo, etc may join and share:

I wish apple would bring back midnight blue

I’m a fan of the Baltic Blue, I prefer it over Midnight Blue. I’m tempted to try the Deep Violet but seeing some more posts here, it’s not as close to Aubergine as I originally thought 😔

Did the idea to make this thread exclusive to Apple leather cases get walked back? Now it does not say “Apple Leather Cases” as it did earlier.

I was never on board with the "Apple only" push that the moderator tailored it to. In fact, Apple brand or not, I have like every post that had pictures. I made it more inclusive to keep the mods at bay. Didn't know you made your own thread.

I didn’t make the other thread, but I also did not understand the forcing of the non-Apple case discussion out. I mean, it’s not like leather is a material that is exclusive to Apple products.

So I’m reading here and have heard elsewhere that the SB case has been updated. Any confirmation of that?
