Haha... Sorry. I thought you were the original poster who didn't know why I wanted to see a pic other than the one on apple'a site.

As I re-look at the trail, I in fact messed up even more by replying to the wrong post. I was replying regarding seeing a particular screen protector on a display with a case on or something. Whoops! Sorry.
Sooo tempted to buy this case but as mentioned scared about not fitting the aux cable in properly
My GF just got the blue leather case yesterday and already there is a red mark on the back from her putting it in her pocket. These cases develop discoloration quick; it's not going to look pristine and new for long!
I tried to force a Amazon lightning cable and it did not work well. I would advise against modifying the holes, as it appears to me that the leather covers a thin plastic shell. Making the hole large may cause the leather to pull away from the shell/case. The current opening seams are sealed with a bead of matching colored plastic to help prevent separation.
Man that looks nice! I was thinking about getting a leather case and brown was not a choice. Now? It may be THE choice.
looks great! I'm considering the brown just wish it was slightly darker. Anyone with brown see any darkening of the leather yet?
I returned my red case after having it for a week. Turns out I'm not okay with how it ages. I wonder if the black case would be better.
I wonder if they're going to release more colors eventually? I really like the simplicity of it but am not the biggest fan of the colors. I would love one in a soft pink color, though but I would imagine with it being leather, that it would turn tan pretty quickly lol.
Are they ok with returning the cases when they've been used and the reason being "it's dirty/changed colour", even though states on back of packet that can change colour?
I bought my red in CPW and wonder how they will be?
It gets dirty looking. Why is this a surprise to anyone that this happens to the lighter colors?
Best buy has it online.
I have elite plus so I have free expedited shipping, I ordered it on Tuesday night at midnight and it got to my house thursday which was cool, although UPS did not leave it. Even though no signature is required? Not sure wtf that was about but I will have it today
That's how I ordered my black case. Being elite plus I got it in two days. But I wanted to see the other colors in person. I'm sure I can order and return if I'm not happy, but just trying to avoid returns. Not a big fan of returns. I know I'm weird.
Corners are definitely getting darker with wear. Kinda like a baseball glove.
I'd think eventually the whole case will look nicely patina'd!

Or like little kids' snowsuits. Sure, the pink one looks cute on the rack, but after a season of winter outdoor recess and sliding down hills, it just looks kinda pathetic.
