  • This may be the best look yet at the iPhone 15 color assortment

    They're probably trying to avoid a MAGA boycott by avoiding rainbow colors!

  • iPhone 15 cases may be synthetic leather, but these 'FineWoven' cases probably aren't it

    I don't beilieve Apple ever actually made leather anything. They pay someone else to make them.
    That said, I've never bought an Apple branded case for anything. There are plenty to choose from in the aftermarket, and they're all less expensive, have tons more options, and many are as high quality as Apple's branded offerings.

    Still don't think leather is the best material for iPhone cases. A grippy rubber or plastic case has the best functionality.

    Different strokes... I only use leather cases, usually Apple's. "Grippy" rubber or silcone cases do not easily slide into my pockets and generally look cheap and/or industrial. Don't need it to survive a fall from an airplane.
    Not sliding easily into a pocket is a feature, not a deficit. The harder it is to slip in, the harder it is to slip out! Think about it…

  • Apple is eliminating the social media support roles from Twitter and others

    That Elon Musk runs Twitter like captain Joseph Hazelwood ran the Exxon Valdez: aground!

    Can't imagine what's going on here. If this is accurate, those pastels are nasty! The black is OK, but all the others look like 1950's bathroom tiles. If Apple is targeting the consumer market, why don't they make brighter colors? If they're targeting the business market, then why not use the same color scheme as the Pro phones?
