Today we are looking at the Silicone Case from Apple in Midnight for the new iPhone 13. For many this series of cases have become their go-to iPhone case. These cases have some neat features but are not cheap. The question is, are the silicone cases from Apple for the iPhone 13 worth it? In terms of the unboxing, included is the case itself and installation guide. Inside the case there is a microfibre interior. Will help prevent scratches on your phone. Applying the case to the iPhone activates the MagSafe animation, a nice touch! Got the Midnight colour color to match my Midnight iPhone 13. Normally I use the leather case from Apple, be sure to checkout my review if you haven’t yet. Also let me know if you would like to see a comparison between the leather case and silicone case. First impressions, feel good in the hand. Grippy yet soft at the same time. Lets look closer at the design and features. I really like the colour. Understated while still standing out from the usual plain black colour. The midnight colour is so versatile, will pair well with all iPhone 13 colours, best with midnight, starlight and product red. Have had Apple’s silicone cases in the past and this version feels more smooth and slightly less grippy. Will still smoothly slide in/out of pocket and won’t collect as much lint/dust. Not a thin case, but adds only minimal thickness to the phone. Finger prints, doesn’t show many and can just be rubbed away or can even use a damp cloth to clean it. Raised edges by screen and camera (protection) even with screen protector. Works with wireless charging and mag safe accessories. Buttons are made of the same silicone as the case. Slightly darker in colour to more easily find them. Pressing the buttons they are somewhat clicky but not as clicky as with the leather case which has aluminium buttons. Precise cut outs for the mic, speaker and lighting. Different compared to some of the previous silicone cases from Apple. Now closed bottom instead of open. Had the case on my iPhone 13 for almost 3 weeks, still look like new as I would expect! Longer-term durability is to be seen. But I would not be worried. The layer of silicone adds a thin layer of impact protection. Key to remember these cases are not meant to protect against high drops, more meant to protect from day-to-day scuffs and wear. Are there any downsides?There’s only one price. Coming in at $49, these cases are not cheap. What you get with the Silicone cases from Apple is a case that is well made, fits the phone perfectly, comes in a range of colours, has some nice features, MagSafe, microfibre interior and really is an easy option and easy recommendation.

I absolutely *adore* Apple's 'Midnight'-colored silicon *and* deluxe leather cases. I like the way the silicon case conveys the actual Apple phone's 'Midnight' color (blueish hue) while the deluxe leather case doesn't quite capture that bluish-hue as well, if at all. On the other hand, that deluxe leather case brings class and a nicer, higher quality feel in the hand. Excellent video, Dion!

Best review mate, u deserve much more subscribers, i recently bought Silicon Case for 13 Pro, and its simple amazing, thanks for clearing the function of microfiber inside the case. Love from India :)

[@chekseng80]

I have the leather casw. Would like to see a comparison between this and the leather case especially in term of thickness and weight. I have sweetly palm and i do exercise every alternate day. Tempting to try out the silicon case.

[@furiousmojo1]

What?? lol

[@Frogly7]

I like the silicone case is better for the first 2 months but it doesn’t really last. After that 2 months and 3 light drops later the silicone starts to peel away. The leather case on the other hand gets better over time with its patina. All in all i normally get both cases each year just because i like to switch cases over the year

[@DionMedia]

Hi Zander, many thanks for your comment and for sharing your experience! 😃

[@joanneazeez9938]

I have never had a silicone case that peels even after Dropping my phone a few times

[@pginarmy8620]

One tip. Dont drop your phone

[@NegativeOpposite]

@@pginarmy8620right? I feel like cases just ruin the feel of the phone, screen protectors distort the screen as well. Apple spends a lot of time perfecting the product only for the consumer to wrap it in garbage and mess up the feel of the phone.

[@techgeeksleek7072]

I would love to see a comparison and see which one is better

[@lukemiller7884]

I wish they made those cases cheaper, the price of the iPhone is already high enough, and now going to buy a really expensive case like that really seems too much.

Hey I just got an iPhone 13 so what do you think about the durability of the case you got

[@jejunamja]

@@colethomas8551 I ended up getting the iPhone 13 red and I got the black silicone case I’ve only had it a month but it’s held up pretty good. The case, it’s a pretty minimal case so if you’re hard on your phones and you drop your phone once in a while I don’t think this would be a very good case it doesn’t Add a lot of protection. If you work in an office it’s a really good case doesn’t it much bolt to the phone at all so and that aspect it’s a really good one.

[@jejunamja]

@@colethomas8551 Wow that's a lot! It's that Canada price? I can understand your tinkling v as it's much cheaper here in the States. The black iPhone with the red case would look great.

[@jejunamja]

@@colethomas8551 I have to say it does fit the phone perfectly, but that is quite pricey there

When I first bought mine I thought it was way too slippery, but after a couple of weeks it’s become less slippery….

Midnight case is turning yellow near the charging port area and back after one month of usage… i can clearly see the colour difference

[@nickpednekar5312]

The thing with apple’s silicone case is that it picks up a lot of dust which is just plain annoying.

[@sanchitvarma1282]

Yeah, it's pretty much unusable for me because of that.

Does the silicone case collect dust and lint like crazy? I had a silicone case for the XR but always thought it looked dirty...

Great review Dion! I’ve never used any silicon cases before tbh. This is the first time im getting one for my iphone 14 pro max. I wanted to ask you since this is my first experience. Does the case block sound? If no, then why does it sound a bit deeper when case is on? Thanks!

[@DionMedia]

Hi Ziyad, in my experience there is little difference, also because the silicon case has cut outs for the sounds. In general silicon is sound absorbing material, so that might explain the little difference you hear.

I bought the Blue jay silicon case for my iPhone 13 blue, it seems that Blue midnight would look great as well

How is the case grippiness overall? When sliding in and out of pockets is it easy or does it pull the insides out? Also is this a proper dust magnet?

[@nickpednekar5312]

Yes for both the questions. The case is overtly grippy which makes it difficult to slide it inside the pockets. Also it is a big dust magnate.

[@coolnik]

@@nickpednekar5312 great thanks for your input. I was considering buying this but I’ll just get the leather one now instead.
