The grain on the 4 back corners looks a little less pronounced on the Togo cases. This is what has held me off from ordering one, I caved in and ordered yesterday.

I caved as well and received mine last week in lagoon. Upon opening the box I immediately noticed the pressed down corners. I’m wondering if they needed to do this to keep the leather tight throughout. Just unfortunate because the marketing material samples don’t show this at all.

I sent an email to support but they want me to send in the case before receiving a replacement. If they fix this issue I will go through with it, but every photo I’ve seen since release shows the same effect.

Did they say if this issue has been resolved with the new replacements?
 
Looks the same as the black torro leather case.

It is pretty much identical (have tested both). You can find identical on AliExpress with the same pattern on the leather too in more colour options.

the togo is the grippiest leather case I have ever used, and ive used a lot. best feeling too.
I'm not a fan of leather that has a pattern printed onto it, makes it feel cheap IMO.

Bye Bye, Cactus, hello TOGO o_O
Andar Togo in today and I like it. First thing it does have the washed out corners that are much more noticeable in pictures than in person. In person they are really not that bad looking. The case feels wonderful in the hand, buttons and fit are perfect. It does kind of have that China leather smell to it :oops: the Cactus is much thinner and lighter but overall this is a better case. Cactus is 36.2 grams, Togo is 39.7 grams for the 15PM. Here are some pictures of the two cases side by side. Keep in mind my Cactus has 30 plus days of wear on it and it still looks like new.

Very nice! I’m torn between these two. I’v tried the Torro leather case, but it’s too tight fit, so I’ll send it back.
which one do you recommend?

I forget…what other leather cases do you have for your phone?

I would say the Togo but I've only had it on my phone for like 1 hour. The only con I see on the Togo is the washed out looking corners and weak Magsafe.

I tried the Torro Leather Cases too. They are using cheap fake leather and they don`t really fit well.

It is true that the washed out corners aren`t that nice. But also as you said in real life they are not that noticable.
Also after more than 1 week of using it in my Car on my Magsafe Holder and using my Popsocket I haven`t noticed any magsafe ring.

I am still very happy with my togo and it is my favorite case for my 15PM so far and I tried a lot.

Both really nice looking cases. Ironically, at least to me, the vegan leather Cactus looks more like real leather than the real leather Togo. Of course, over time the Togo will develop a patina, while the Cactus, being mostly polyurethane, will not. I’m curious about both, but I’m currently stuck on rotating between the Synthesis and FW.
