Not Your Average Leather Phone Case!!

So I bought this case for my iPhone 6s Plus. Now I know this says it’s for the 7+ & 8+ but any cases for the 7+/8+ will fit the 6 Plus and 6s Plus, it will just have extra open space in the cutout next to the single camera (see my pictures to see what I mean) because the only difference between all 4 models is the 7/8+ have a dual camera. So yes, any 7 Plus or 8 Plus case WILL fit the 6 Plus and 6s Plus phones. The “extra space” in the camera cut out had NO effect on my decision to return and exchange this case. Please continue reading to see why I exchanged it for a different case.
Now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, I can review this case. I bought a new iPhone 6s Plus and it was being delivered that day, but I didn’t have it in my hands yet and bought this case before it was delivered. Since I didn’t have it on me, I couldn’t try it out on my phone. So once I did get my phone later that day and put the case on, I ended up not liking how it looked.
As for it’s fit and protection - the fit was perfect (for the 6s+) and it seemed like it offered a lot of protection for the phones corners and back. It had raised edges so the screen would not touch the ground if it fell screen down.
It felt super comfortable in my hands and the leather was extremely high quality. I really liked how from 1 foot away, or more, the case looked like it was a smooth plastic or TPU (rubber) but once you got a closer look, you could tell it was leather. Some might not like this, but this was the selling point for me that originally made me buy this case as I usually have zero interest or desire to buy a leather phone case.
Although I did end up returning it for the Tech21 6s Plus case that’s Blood Red + Smoked, this was a very nice case and I only returned it because of personal taste, NOT because of the cases protection or quality.
Overall I would definitely recommend this case to friends if they asked about minimal design leather iPhone cases.

This is a good looking apple case. It has the leather smell. Real leather! The look of the design is awesome. The phone looks great in the case (especial if you have a black iphone). The phone does not look bulky at all. The case has protected my phone BUT... the case does scuff/scratch when it falls on/rubs against hard surfaces(Ex-phone falling on concrete outside). With the case falling on hard surfaces it may likely case the leather to rise up/come off in certain spots. But you can always smooth these spots down with your fingers to make your case look decent. Overall the case is nice!

I always stayed away from the Apple cases. They're expensive and simple looking. For my last phone (iPhone 6s Plus) I went ahead and bought it after another case failed me and I figured I'd give it a try. That case ended up being one of my favorite cases I've ever had. So, when it came to purchasing a case for my iPhone 8 Plus, while I did still try other cases, I went with what I knew I liked. The screen protection isn't as good as an Otterbox or LifeProof case, but it's also much less bulky. For the old phone I did drop it a couple times. The old phone never broke nor did the screen shatter, and the leather on the case held up well. I'd definitely recommend considering this case.

This case is almost what I wanted. It’s slim, lightweight, and protective. It’s quite a bit expensive for a case but it’s high quality leather. Another bad thing is that it is prone to ripping from drops and markings from rubbing into objects

I planned on getting a cheaper brand case but saw that most cases were priced very similarly. So I decided to get the Apple brand since It’s made by Apple I knew it would fit perfectly. And it does. And I really just love everything about it. It’s thin and light weight so it doesn’t add any extra bulk to the plus size iphones. It looks good. I have the silver iPhone 8+ and got the black case. And it just feels good in the hand. The only cons I would say is that there is no grip, but that would take away from the looks, and the bottom of the phone is exposed, but that’s where the speaker is so I guess they can’t cover it. But despite those I love the case and will most likely buy the Apple brand cases in the future.

I bought this case highly recommended from the Best Buy Associate - definitely worth it! Smells & feels like genuine leather. Easy to scratch, however, but great protection for the back & sides of the phone.

Great IPhone 7Plus Case

This is a fantastic iPhone case. It’s very smooth feeling in the hand and not bulky feeling. Other cases that I’ve had in the past on other iPhones felt bulky in my hand but this one feels comfortable. Also, it’s been hard to use the side buttons on other cases that I’ve had on other iPhones because they’ve been so stiff feeling but this one allows for easy operation of the buttons. But one caveat to it is, sometimes I accidentally “turn off” the phone (not completely off, just sleep mode) while I’m doing something on my phone and have to wake it back up by turning it on, but that’s just a minor blip. I just have to remember to be careful where I put my fingers when I’m holding my phone! Also, I’ve dropped my phone a few times already and it has protected my phone very well so far. Plus, I love the color. I got the blue one and it’s a great color. If you’re on the fence about buying it, go ahead and buy it. You won’t regret it even though it’s a little pricey. Wait until BB has it on sale for a few dollars less if cost is a factor for you, but otherwise, go for it!

I love this case! It’s very soft to the touch and doesn’t make the phone look overly bulky. Only complaint is that it easily shows scratch marks, but that is to be expected with leather.

Love the leather, fits snuggly. Doesn’t add any bulk and adds to the appearance of the phone instead of taking away IMO

I bought this case about 9 months ago and have been very satisfied with it. At the price as well as it being Apple I expected it to be a quality and exceptional case, and it definitely is. It fits my iPhone 7 Plus perfectly and is easy to install/remove. The button extensions feel like they are a part of the phone itself. The leather is durable and wears as genuine leather should, and it has colored nicely. The leather provides a moderate grip when the phone is sitting on something but it is still easy to take in/out of my pocket. The color of the leather and buttons is very nice and sophisticated.

The leather feels good, it has a nice grip to it. It does scratch easily, but since its leather, you can always buff it out. The case fits perfectly, but If you have butterfingers I’d recommend something a bit more protective

It was delivered to me quickly, the case is easily installed, well fitted for my Iphone. The black color is always my favourite one for Iphone. The case touches soft but not slippery, I can hold my cell phone safely in hand now. I believe it can protect my phone well. The service of Bestbuy is good, I will use it frequently to buy anything I wanted later.

I ordered this case in the Product Red color because it was on sale at a nice savings price. I have never had an Apple Leather iPhone case until now, and I did not expect to like it as much as I do, but I am so glad I purchased it. It is so soft and fits my iPhone 8 Plus like a glove. It is also easy to put on and remove. I have been using it for about 10 days. So far no scratches or stains on the leather, which was my greatest concern. At this point, I can highly recommend it.

Previously went with a silicone case and this one is far superior. Stays much cleaner than the Apple silicone iPhone case and has a much better grip. It is certainly a personal preference but I feel that this is far better than the silicone case.

I didn't want a bulky case and I could find an inexpensive case that I thought I could trust. I wanted a Tech21 case like I had on my old iPhone 6s Plus but the Tech21 offering for the iPhone 8 Plus was loose fitting.
The Apple Leather case fits tight, is not bulky and looks good on the phone. The only caveat is that it is initially pretty slick. After about a weeks use, it has a little tack to the leather and I don't feel like it's going to slip out of my hand. I would certainly recommend the purchase.
