just opened the fine woven and I know what you mean about that scratch vinyl look!

will see how it feels on the phone and decide...

I get the feeling I might be indecisive on finishes again this year! :D
I bought one of the new FineWoven wallets and it's put be off the phone case so have gone with silicone instead :/

Ok, so got a weird problem.

My partner had Barclays finance for her iPhone 14, which she paid off a couple days ago. Yesterday when she was going through her pre-pre, again with Barclays finance, with a trade in, the app stated that the trade in value will be applied to her old loan (which was paid off), not the new one. Neither Barclays or Apple seem to understand the problem. Has anyone encountered this?

I stupidly didn’t think about the store going down as I was about have a proper to look at cases. I think I’ll get a cheap clear one from Amazon and then give it some thought.

I was going to look at the silicone colours again but the store is down 😂

went for fine woven as I don't recall seeing a good match in the silicone range for the Natural Titanium

even if it is, When Barclays receive the money, they will just return it back to you (or the wife in this case).

Its similar with AC purchased with Barclays... they get the money back first and then Barclays give back to the account holder.

My FineWoven has arrived. OK, for sure the quality is not the same as traditional leather. The woven material is suede-like but with a harder vinyl feel. I can't work out if the sides are the same material or covered plastic. Should be grippy and comfortable to hold. Expensive for what it is.

Question mark on long-term durability but easy return or exchange with Apple if it is hot garbage!

I'm going to wait then hunt down a third-party leather case.

Been looking at the official silicone cases and deciding whether to go for FineWoven or not. Do you think they missed out on the opportunity to advertise these cases as being "powered by the latest in Apple Silicone technology"?

Ahh I see, so Barclays will just send the money straight back to my partner then. Bit annoying as that will probably screw up the repayment plan!
