Apple Silicone Case - Cypress: Premium Price without Premium Quality

The Apple Silicone Case costs $49. I just had some thoughts I wanted to share on it + the future of apple accessories.

I've been a fan of their leather cases before the pandemic. After it I still sanitase my phone now and then. Leather doesn't love alcohol so that wasn't an option anymore. I tried their silicone cases last year and that was a dissapointment too. This price can't justify the cheap feel and look of the silicone. It's just not a premium material.
This year I've bought myself Pitaka case 5. It's on a completely different level of design and, most importantly, the feel. Probable it's less protective, but it feels amazing and looks great too.

Eco friendly but you have to replace 3 of them instead of 1 normal one

ive had an apple silicone case on my iphone 12 pro for 4 and a half months and after that amount of time it had 2 minor dents and a small chunk missing, ive now had my iphone 15 pro 3 weeks and since then my supposedly identical case has worse damage not even from drops just from being taken in and out of my pockets, i dont know what apple have been doing since the 12 series cases but none of my previous cases (11 pro max, 11 and 6/6s) ever had damage/ very minimal damage even after they were used for 1+ years

I ordered a 13 mini with silicone case directly from Apple and after one year the silicone case started to fall apart. It should last at least 2 years.

My issue with the Apple Silicone cases are:

- slippery
- not fingerprint/oil resistant
- little to no protection against drops as in no bumper.

All worried about eco friendly, but then they drop something like the Apple Vision Pro lol. The amount of carbon they produced to make those is laughable

I brought the clay one sure it looks great but it shows marks easily always having to clean it now it’s siting in the draw rotting 😂
