What Apple leather case color did you get?

Finally broke down and drove to my nearest Apple Store ( 45 miles ) since local retailers weren't getting them in and got blue and black to go with my space grey
??? What difference does it make, Gold or Silver 5S in a black case basically looks identical...
Wow, the brown color really looks classy with any combo. Tempted to get one myself.

Seriously. The gold ring almost looks like silver anyway.

I plan on returning the blue one. I heard from many people who have their phones and seen one how lotion and oil from skin appearing on the case..I will keep the red and brown one.
perfect for you, here is a review of someone showing it up close. Excellent review.

I am convinced to trade in my red for black once it comes
I know! which is why i am having a change of heart with my red. As soon as it gets here i will be trading for the black. The red case and any other light colors does not stand a chance.
I haven't gotten one yet, but I LOVE the look of the red one. I have a gold 5s and love the contrast between the deep crimson red and the white.
I agree that the black looks good on all 3. Ive seen some pictures of the brown and it does look ok, I just wish the brown was a richer cognac color that way it would patina over time. Only time will tell.
Right now i have a mara hoffman case on mine and although i love the back of it i hate the way it looks in the front. I wish companies would stop making cases that don't wrap all the way around the phone :/

I don't use cases generally since I like the naked look, but there are times when I pop one on when I know a case would be useful/protective. Anyway, with that said - anyone with a GOLD 5S and a RED case? Pictures? Red is the only one I'd consider buying just because I like red. I almost bought one 2 weeks ago when I went in to the Apple Store for a genius bar appt.
here is a review, its with the silver but you cant tell the difference once its in the case from the video. Hope this helps

Ended up choosing black on black. I like the sleek look
I like the space grey edge around the phone, gives it a nice border when in the black leather case. I went with the same case.
Yeah it looks really nice. I just wish apple priced it around $30 instead of $40. But, most of the leather cases out there are similarly priced so..yeah.
You know, the whole idea of wrapping an electronic device in the skin of a dead animal is just macabre in 2013...soon 2014.
