Apple introduced its FineWoven range of iPhone cases and Apple Watch Bands in 2023, stating that their eco-friendly design was a superior alternative to the company’s outgoing leather accessories.
However, it now appears that Apple is ending its FineWoven line after receiving countless complaints about the durability of the material and the way the material feels compared to its former range of leather accessories. Fundamentally, People don’t like Apple’s FineWoven iPhone 15 cases.
The Verge called Apple’s FineWoven iPhone cases “categorically terrible” and shared how easy it is to scratch, scuff, or mark the new material Apple calls “luxurious and durable.”
Keynote USA also admitted that while the FineWoven cases feel good in the hand, long-term durability was a real concern. Scratch marks were easily created and the case seemed to collect lint and dirt that wasn’t always easy to clean.
Drain Kosutami (thanks, Keynote USA) claims that Apple has stopped production of FineWoven covers and is moving to “another material.” It won’t be leather, however, as Apple will want to opt for something eco-friendly.
We could see an announcement during Apple’s next iPhone event, which historically takes place in September. Expect to see New iPhone cases and watch bands released in the fall, if the report is accurate.
Apple will host its annual WWDC 2024 event on June 10, where it will reveal the future of iOS, MacOS, and iPadOS. It’s unlikely we’ll see any new hardware announced, like the rumored Airpods Lite.
