Folks, don't fall for the tutti-frutti, phoney-baloney, plastic banana, good time, rock-n-roll Apple PR "leaks" to build hype. Apple's cases will be the same as they were in year's past, no matter what gimmicky material they make them out of: they will be substantially more expensive than nearly identical cases and will fall apart just as fast as nearly identical cases. The Apple PR "leaks" of a potential new name are designed to build hype and trick people into thinking something dramatic has changed. It hasn't.
 
Sketchy rumours? 🙏 this whole place was built on sketchy rumours!
Best comment of the year! Lmao!

Plus, they frequently criticize “Majin Bu”(somehow always written with quotation marks), emphasizing his mixed track record, while they consistently praise Marc Gurman (somehow always written without quotation marks), despite him being just as hit-or-miss as a leaker. LOL.
 
Sketchy Rumors? Are we going to start needing age verification to log onto this website/forum?

Why would they require that? There is no NSFW content on here.

My experience with Apple cases is that they fall apart twice or three times as fast as 3rd party. Apple cases are junk.

My Torras case on 13 Pro looked nearly perfect three years after I bought it. Same case on my 16 pro is perfect, as well, despite treating them like crap. Both cost >$20.
 
Ok, I get how they really want to lean into the whole liquid glass thing, but come on, another silicone case?

Why not just bring leather back??? (even if it is vegan leather/leatherette)

Also, who even buys cases first party anyways? They're grossly overpriced and you can get just as good (if not better quality sometimes) by going 3rd party at a fraction of the price.

BRING BACK THE LEATHER CASE! The microfiber case was a disaster. The silicone cases are too sticky and don't slide in/out of pocket well.

FWIW I was in Tokyo the last couple weeks and it seems like most iPhone users there have cases with Lanyards... it's a thing there. Not so much here in US.
 
Gonna throw liquid in front of everything this year I guess.

Sign me up for a Liquid case and I'll take a Liquid band for my Apple Watch Series 11 as well.
 
They seriously need cases which are made of solid plastic/silicone rather than the horrible silicone coated plastic things they have at the moment which peels off after a few months.
 
We can’t just do sustainable leather and make everyone happy? One L after the other lately
Vegans and PETA will never be happy if you are using anything from an animal, even if it is sustainable.

They could just bring leather back. That’s what people want. Even if it’s “vegan leather” or “leatherette.”
Leather cases were the nicest, since they discontinued I just buy my cases elsewhere now. My Tesla uses vegan leather for the seats and they feel really nice. Not sure how long and durable they are compared to real leather. I loved how the brown leather cases would age. They literally got nice as they got older.

It never seizes to confound me that Apple (and its competitors) spend untold hours and dollars designing phones that often cost upwards of $1000 but they're so slippery and fragile, you have to stick them in a case... but then you don't get to actually see or hold the actual design of the device
Never seizes? Impressive. What lube are you using?
iMiss Apple's leather cases so so much.
I would agree other than my last Apple leather case disintegrating. Their quality has taken a nosedive over the last few years.

No one cares what case or watch band you choose!
 
Alright... I'll just say it.

Who on their team is a fan of Dragon Ball Z? He's the leak!
