I apologise if this is in the wrong place, but after a break of a couple of years I've finally returned to Apple's leather case for my 14 Plus, out of the box if felt fine in the hand but after a few days it's become, for lack of a better word, tacky. I don't know if it's a different sealant or something. For those who have experienced this (I'm aware I could have bought a lemon although it was direct from Apple) does this slight stickiness go ? I've had it for perhaps 10 days, if it remains like this I'm not sure I can continue using it.

There’s so much subjectivity here, in addition to quantitative differences like humidity, the moisture and oil of your hands, etc. With that big disclaimer out of the way, for me—and I think this is a fairly common experience—the leather cases will get tackier/stickier over time. You can clean the case in a way to mitigate this process, but it’s just the nature of the material.

Yea, aramid fiber is a major grease/fingerprint/smudge magnet. The Gen 4 is much better than the Pitaka MagEZ Pro 3 which is one of the worst grease pits I've ever seen 🤢🤢

I see. I'm a big fan of the dbrand Grip cases + skin and would've went with that if their Magsafe wasn't so weak. Hopefully they improve it next year but the Rebel Gen 4 will have to do for now.

Looking at getting this for my wife but I noticed two reviews on Amazon that cause me some concern. I understand it’s only a few reviews but since you have the case, can you let us know how it holds after a week or two?

Tried one on my 14PM at Best Buy. Sides were lose.
 
I’m looking for a quality clear case with black frame, something similiar to Spigen Ultra Hybrid Matte black but also with magsafe. Any recommendations? So far I’ve seen ESR Classic Hybrid And Benks Mist case, also this Xundd case below in Aliexpress.

I'm tempted to try the red Sheath but think the color would get old fast 😕

I’m was thinking the same thing but afraid that the same MagSafe charger imprint will show up like my black Sheath. On the other hand I’m thinking another color Synthesis because my black one is still fresh with no marking

Slowly selling my collection. Will only have Caudabe cases soon once the last phone rebel has gone. Despite my love for this case, the quality just isn’t there compared to the sheath. Hopefully that improves in the future. Still got 2x Cretan Bill cases to sell in UK, black and blue leather for 14 pro.
