That line would make me contact them for a replacement. How are you liking it aside from that? My sheath is getting delivered at some point today
It’s not too bad actually I like the texture a lot. The edges aren’t as raised the Flolab surtect but the trade off being it’s less intrusive when swiping etc.
 
Any more news if the 17 Pro Max cases will fit the 18 Pro Max?
Rumours suggest No (only the Pro model will be compatible ) but your guess is as good as mine.

But Casebelle who I among others tested their recent leather case suggested below:

“You’ll also be pleased to know that the case we sent you will be compatible with the upcoming iPhone 18 series.”

Also (not sure if this is the thread to post here) but, when is the best time to sell your 17's? And to who? Best price I've been quoted is £690 for my 256Gb Pro Max. I got £700 last year for my 16 Pro Max just before the 17 launch.

I sold mine to Meelie. 17 Pro 256GB for £715 on 8th Aug.

Apple needs to bring back leather but would be hard to backtrack. I'm sure they could put some spin on it like 'sourced from 100% waste product' or something. Unlikely I guess.
I‘d buy a new iPhone for an Apple leather case. 🥲 But it’s highly unlikely at this point. They might try something vegan first before they go back to leather. But never say never, I guess.

Decided to return the Icarer leather case I had (leather quality was just not that good) and also the Wiiuka I just received today. I’m just not a fan of Nubuk leather on a case. Although this one is supposed to patina like immediately. It’s otherwise a very nice case.

I went and had a look at the Samsung Fold today because I wanted to see if this form factor would appeal to me and honestly, it’s a very weird size. Like a biiiig passport? I don’t have small hands, but I need two hands to open and close this thing. And it will be humongous with a case on it. Hard to hold on to with just one hand. Honestly like the Fold Ultra form factor much better. But of course, people will line up to get this thing from Apple in September. Though I hear stock might be low and you have to be fast to get one on release day.
