There’s a lot of hate outside when it comes to the FineWoven case, however, here are my points why it’s currently my absolute all-time favorite iPhone case:
- The lightness, button tactility, and precision fit is unlike any other third-party case I tried out so far. (I’ve tried the Torras Thin Fit and the LONLI Classic, while the Torras is okayish, the Classic just feels really really bulky and heavy and takes away a lot of usability of the iPhone 15 PM)
- The blue color is absolutely stunning and reflects totally different depending on the light conditions.
- The haptics of the case are really great and absolutely comparable to the old leather cases and make it feel like a good replacement, I really like the fine feel of the back and the more robust feel of the sides.
- The attention to detail in this case amazes me every day again, the flush camera alignment and the metal buttons really compliment the blue titanium iPhone.
- A lot of people have durability concerns, however, I have a really hard time to agree with a lot of folks on that, let me tell you why:
- The fine microtwill gives me a lot peace of mind compared to leather, since we handle fibers everyday when wearing clothes and we do not complain there too. When we put a iPhone in our jeans it is “fiber on fiber” and so far I’m really more relaxed about breaking/scratching the case when pocketing or using it. I actually feel way more relaxed with this case, instead of constantly worrying about it, which is an underrated „Plus“ for me.
- I actually really like how it looks aged. After all it’s a case to protect what’s inside, and not needing to baby my case gives me more peace of mind and teaches me, that life is not perfect after all, and worrying about a case shouldn’t be priority in life anyways. With leather I was always worrying not to damage it, because it expels „luxury“. I don’t really need that with my modern phone.
- It cleans up easier than leather cases while still looking better than silicone. When using a microfiber cloth with leather, I was worrying about scratching it because of particles scratching the leather. As it is fiber on fiber with a microfiber cloth, I lost that worrying. Just dampen it with water, good to go, looks fresh. Particles will either go inside the microfiber or the microtwill, but they won’t scratch the case, which even if it WOULD scratch, is: Fine for me.
- Scratches are expected and give this case actually some character (Yes! As the leather cases!). Not worrying about scratching this case is actually a plus for me, to me it is better than fighting with my inner „perfectionist“ all the time about keeping everything I own pristine, I now kinda endorse the scratches.
- As mentioned before by others, I feel like this case is a cool sweetspot between leather and silicone with combined additional benefits. Cheap feeling case? No, not at all for me. Feels superb in the hand.
- I scotchgarded it, worrying about staining isn‘t in my head anymore.
- All in all I like my technology modern, and the FineWoven-MicroTwill Mix feels much more high-tech than I expected and other cases cannot compete with the all around package I get with the FineWoven. I‘d go even further and would even go that far and say: To me this case actually feels premium in my hand, not cheap at all.
+ It perfectly matches my wonderful blue ocean band of my Apple Watch Ultra 2
The first reviews were all rushed and don’t give this fabulous case justice. I’m a fine fan.
As BasicAppleGuy has already said it: FineWoven is fine.
