I really used to like Mujjo products. Their felt sleeves for iPads and MacBooks were fantastic, but unfortunately they were bought out and the quality just isn't the same. Not surprising though, they need to maximise their profits.
I think there is a perceived quality issue with leather cases across the board. I have seen comments about almost every leather case there is where people say the quality isn't as good as it used to be. In most cases I am not aware of a difference - Apple and Bellroy for example. I think some people expect a 100% leather product like a wallet and are disappointed to find their leather phone case is a polycarbonate shell with a leather skin - which is what they all are. I have never seen an older Mujjo case and am delighted with the current incarnation.

It is based on use and care too.
My missus dropped her Apple leather case like peanuts.
So there goes with scratches and edge chipping on the case and looks quite appalling.

I always keep mine safe and only could recall drops on the carpet.

Patina is quite amazing.

This care rule will apply to all full leather cases.

i opted for a clear case from Peel, someone mentioned this a while back and I ordered it Thursday night. Unfortunately it's being shipped from the US incurring $13USD shipping plus $7USD customs/tax minus 10% discount $4, total GBP is £46. No tracking yet, so I am assuming it will not arrive on time when I get my phone. So a cheap Amazon silicone case as a stop gap :). I would really want to go caseless but when I try it with my 13PM it just feels slippery :(

Any advice on the best value and reliability for selling iPhone/Apple Watch that isn’t Music Magpie?
 
I don’t see why any old usb cable from Amazon wouldn’t work with CarPlay, I’ve been using an Amazon one since I got the iPhone 13PM (now have 14PM) and it’s always been fine.

I agree and disagree.

I agree that some people think they are 100% leather but this isn't true at all. I used the Mujjo leather cases every year and until the iPhone 13 and switched to the Nomad modern leather case, which is built on the same concept, leather over the top of a shell. However the leather which Nomad uses is far superior and has a thicker layer over the top, wears so much better, last longer. Patina's over time.

Mujjo on the other hand, I believe uses a thiner layer of leather over the top, wears completely differently. This usually means cost cutting.

For all you Ford owners (myself included) with Sync 3.3 / 3.4 you can actually obtain a new USB A / C hub to replace your current one, be warned though on the fusion / Mondeo an adapter for fitting will be needed!

That would be good for my Focus ST, I did wonder if the current USB A connector can be easily replaced or not.

Can you post a picture? I apologize if this is off topic? I'm just looking at getting one for my Mondeo and as mentioned before it's an adapter frame before I can fit the smaller genuine ford one!
 
Anyone posted their devices to MM recently and got full pay out?

I still got one device to recycle.

Locked with MM £725 and UR £749.

UR 14 days expire on Wednesday after launch day.
 
I just ordered this ORNARTO case from Amazon, in Pine Green. I think Apple did a case in a similar colour called Eucalyptus which I loved and always wanted so was a little sad when they never brought it back this time.

Who is keeping their Fine Woven cases after watching Mobile Review video on YT?

Im in two minds now lol
To be fair, he doesn’t like apple cases in general and any case will rip apart if you try. The main concern for me is how marks on the case such as from fingernails wear over time. Do they remain a permanent mark or do they ‘heal’. We won’t know until people get using the case

I had no problems - and used MM precisely because I’d had no problems in the past. I posted to MM on the Monday and left the country for 3 weeks on Tuesday.

Anyway, got MM quote Mon am, posted Mon pm, they confirmed receipt Wed am, money in account (quoted amount) Wed pm.
 
Kickin myself for cancelling my original order with delivery on 22nd but it was so much hassle trying to actually pay for it!

My delivery is 17-24 October now. I know I'm wasting my time but I keep checking hoping to see it preparing for shipping or saying an earlier date lol. I've got another 5 weeks to wait :( The only good thing is that the configuration I went for (PM, Black, 512GB) is not the most popular.

I'll be checking availability for pick up in store. If it means getting a train to another city then I'll do it :D
