Did they release anything for the 13 PM? No leather?
No new leather cases. Biggest disappointment in my opinion, the Silicone Case colours they had at launch were already good and didn’t really need improving (although Lemon Zest and Blue Fog look really good) - the leather cases colour options, if you have the Sierra Blue phone, are extremely lacklustre.

iPhone 12 had all the good colours for the leather case - why did they drop the ball so hard one year later?

Agree, 5 leather cases isn’t going to cut it.

Apart from the new green silicone case, the rest don’t look that great.



Won’t be purchasing any more cases, I’ll stick with the 4  cases that I have already.

I had the same minor gripe with my last phone, iPhone 11 Pro - the Spring event rolled around and Apple released no new leather cases like wtf. Then iPhone 12 came, I skipped cuz wanted to keep the 11 Pro, iPhone 12 got the gorgeous Deep Violet leather case at last years Spring event so I was really convinced we’d see at least one new colour at todays event…. Nup, disappointed.

I think both of these new Silicone cases look good on Sierra Blue (especially the blue one, it looks like a direct match), and really feel one of these should’ve been released as a leather case.

13 Pro is and will always be an amazing phone I want to keep for the time to come - but it’s just really a shame they dropped the ball with the leather cases which I’ve been using since they were around on the 5s.

I hope they aren’t considering phasing them out

Same here, I’ll be keeping my 13 pro max until apple release a 8” foldable iPhone.

Let’s hope not, still angry that they stopped making leather folio cases for the iPads.

The current marital they’re using looks shocking after a short period of time.

So lame as I normally just use the leather cases.

Anyone in the UK want a gen 3 13Pro phone rebel case? Notice this guy is selling one. May help someone?


I notice he also has some other interesting cases. And no, it’s not me selling them!

I’ve heard the lip around the screen is really small? Is that an issue?
It is with the Navy but I’ve seen both brown and black Andar cases that have a proper lip. With no screen protector there’s just barely a lip all the way around. I’ve been confident enough with my handling of phones lately that I’m rolling with it but if you’re accident prone I wouldn’t count on it doing much in the case of a serious drop.

Purchased the Caudabe Lucid Clear Graphite and it is amazingly thin and a beautiful piece, but it is as slippery as a bar of wet soap. I guess I am going to see about sending it back.
Anyone else have issues with Caudabe responding to emails or Twitter DM? They used to have great, responsive customer service but this interaction is lacking.
