New Apple Leather Case

[Thekidtorres]

I doubt it. It's a shame, Apple makes a phone, a case and a dock and the three can't be used together. I'd suggest you look for 3rd party dock options. Apple is all about things "just working" but they really put out a sad excuse for a dock.

Yes that's something i will never understand.. Why they cant make a dock that works with cases...

 

[imjoee]

I definitely want the red one with one of th new docks, I think it looks gorgeous, I have some gift cards so it doesn't bother me that the case is $40

I have a 50$ itunes gift card, could i use that to buy it?

----------

It's sad but I think this case was the thing that interested me most from all the announcement's yesterday

exactly. same for me.

----------

Isn't released until the 20th, unfortunately.

ah, okay.

If it is simplicity, minimalism, and thinness you seek, there is nothing better than the Case-Mate Barely There, IMO.

I always get the clear version. With the white/silver iPhone, you can barely tell there is a case on it in most situations.

Dislikes about that particular case,
It's only 15$ less.
It doesn't have an apple sign on the back.

IMO

For me, its a case that covers all sides including top and bottom. Still cannot fathom why manufacturers can't make cases that protect ALL sides.

I also like the clear one the best. But one thing that bothers me is that huge opening for the camera and flash. As if they weren't sure how much space camera/flash would take before the 5 came out.

Power Support and Caze do.

I'm not sure if you're serious or just trolling.

Nice case!

Wouldn't most 5 cases fit the 5S?

Anyone know if the leather traps heat?

I'm torn between the red or black. Red looks nice but not as professional as black. Hmm

I feel your pain. I'm looking at red or black as well. The brown is starting to grow on me, too.

 

[Kisey]

I could see the lighter colors getting dirty easily.

 

[jfrancis04]

Think I'm gonna go with black on my black 5.

yep, just like the smart covers.

going black with black as well

Good find. I'm rather stuck between the light brown and the dark brown on the white/gold 5s, through the black case on the white 5s is sleek as well.

As far as the browns go, I'd like to see this compared to 12 South's BookBook. That will be the tale of the tape for me.

BL.

These look good but what drop protection are you getting? If so, I dont see point of wrapping it in leather. I think I'll wait for any new Tech 21 cases which are the best for drops, scratches, etc.

 

[vandoorn]

I think i'm gonna go with a black on black. I've been waiting since the beginning for Apple to make a case for the iPhone 5...

I find it funny that some posters bother to come in here to post about other manufacturer's cases. Go to the other case posts to post about those, we're interested in the Apple leather case in this particular thread...

Completely agree. Especially when they mention something that is totally different (i.e. Tech 21).

This could also be a test run for a leather Smart Case.

Oooh yeah I didn't think of that. Well it will probably be what, $80?

 

[TyPod]

I wonder what the beige is going to look like in person.

If it matches the white iPhone 5 I'll probably get that. If not, looks like I'm going to go with the red.

Black with red case.
