- ceejayoz 3y agoI did not expect half of the leather to peel off.
- epgui 3y agoThat is not the same thing as patina, which is a real but different thing.
- sonicanatidae 3y agoAre you sure? Apple failed to make any distinction between the two.
- bdcravens 3y agoI've owned several. (and am sad I'll never buy another) Aside from hard drops, I've never had that experience. My current one has worn down a bit where my finger usually rests on the back, but the leather is fully intact. Any chance you may have gotten ahold of a fake one? I've seen several online which have very convincing packaging, like this eBay listing: https://www.ebay.com/itm/355320108334 https://www.ebay.com/itm/355320108334
- ceejayoz 3y ago> Any chance you may have gotten ahold of a fake one? Not unless store.apple.com got MITMed. Someone else on the thread says they changed materials at some point; maybe you have one of the originals?
- bdcravens 3y agoMy current one is from the last year they made them, for the 14 Pro Max.
- SantalBlush 3y agoNone of this has anything to do with the Tesla Cybertruck.
- ceejayoz 3y agoI fully expect Tesla to similarly talk about how the Cybertruck will acquire a patina and that such a thing is entirely expected.
- randerson 3y agoNot all leather is equal. Sounds like Apple is using cheap split grain or bonded leather. https://www.popovleather.com/blogs/from-the-workshop/the-ultimate-guide-to-leather-grades https://www.popovleather.com/blogs/from-the-workshop/the-ult...
