I'm now on my 2nd Apple silicone case for my 12 Pro. The simplicity, overall comfort, feel of the case, and various colours is why it's popular. If you don't drop your phone regularly it's a good choice. My only issue is the durability and price point. I'm now about to be on my 2nd case because of the wear and tear. I'm not a person that drops my phone a lot but because of regular daily use, the silicone starts to chip and peel. All Apple cases come with a limited 1-year warranty. I went to Apple last week to file a claim and they ordered a new (free) one for me which arrived today. If anyone gets the silicone case definitely note the 1-year warranty on a calendar or something.

[@jlb4685]

In store?

[@Dynamics416]

@@jlb4685 Yes, as long as you have the original purchase receipt from an Apple Store you just go in and file a warranty claim.

Was your case damaged enough to qualify for replacement?

[@T4YT0R]

I wanna know where the red 15’s & 15 Accessories are?!

[@wolfordclay]

I got the same one ! I dropped it once, not even a foot from the ground, it wrecked the case and the corner of my phone popped out and now has scratches on it. It’s so disappointing bc I really liked the case.

[@RosamariaRodriguez-h4i]

That is what I feared so ordered a Mophie battery case from Best Buy open box for $75. They started $99 Phone slides so easily in. Afraid it’s not secure enough. Thanks. I found the Apple silicon case at a thrift store like $2.

[@87Michael]

I prefer the silicone on the Otterbox cases. This is my first Apple case & I’m finding it very slippery & not very grippy whereas the Otterbox cases seemed perfect to me.

[@hockeyshot999]

Fantastic review, super accurate and describes all of the feelings I have about it. I just “like” this case and would “LOVE” it without the durability flaw! But the feel and protection is great…just doesn’t sit right with me having a case with chunks taken out of it/imperfections due to dropping. I REALLY wish they made the silicone more durable!

[@Luban34]

I returned that case. Im not very like silicone. Now using fine woven with wallet its much better. I know material is not very good quality but feeling is super.

[@darylbalatibat4923]

Fine woven is a low quality leather

[@Oleg__]

darylbalatibat4923 That's bullshit. There's no leather involved at all.

[@jasonelston2707]

I hate the apple silicon cases, bc they’re too expensive and they ALWAYS wear out within weeks’ time. The “fake” $11 silicon cases are sturdier, and last much longer (and they come in so many dope colors).

[@wangzhanfengcchms8814]

does the microfibre cloth in the case prevent dust from entering and scratching the iphone

[@a.d.c7941]

Feels great in the hand, looks good, drop it and it’s junk. Period.

3:53 what is this for a color? The case Tonbraun?

[@itsdtxjd]

I used to always get the leather case since it was available, but this same one you reviewed is my very first silicone one from apple and omg I love it. It glides in and out of my pocket without issue, the grip is good and god it looks amazing. I haven’t had issues with lint or it cracking, but there is some wear on the bottom corner and the magsafe area where i stick my magsafe wallet after 5 months. I will definitely be replacing it with another of the same one when it gets too ugly lol and maybe not use a magsafe wallet to keep it looking nicer longer. I don’t think the price is high either because it’s such a good quality even from the inside with the microfiber. I’ve seen silicone cases from 3rd party up to 80 dollars! So it could be worse for apple cases. I hope though that they start selling a leather case again, even if it’s a fake leather one.

[@PeacefulFlamingos-cv3bg]

Should i see a notification when put it on? I dont see any of it when puting the silicone case on what do i do?

[@AndrewClare]

You should. Where did you buy it from

[@PeacefulFlamingos-cv3bg]

On apple store, i called them and they said just to restart myphone and now its showing the notification thing when i put it on 😅. Thank you!

[@MoonShine-o5n]

Had it for the 13 pro max and the silicone started peeling very easily.. Just got it for the 15 pro max and was hoping it would be different lol. I guess I’ll be returning it.

[@ashtonb_416]

I used the two different silicone cases for the 12 pro max and just sliding the phone face down on a smooth table caused the lip to tear. Had the same problem with the silicone battery cases way back with the Xs. For $50 its just not worth it I've found cheaper cases with stronger magnets so I don't see the justification for getting this case anymore which is sad cause I do like them.

[@AndrewClare]

Thanks for sharing

[@vickydonor2880]

Will this case protect from heavy drops?

[@jorgerivero3584]

Does the silicone case attracts more dust or no? 🤔 I have a fake one and every time I take my phone out of my pocket it’s cover in those small particles.

[@AndrewClare]

@@jorgerivero3584 yeah it attracts dust

[@DGCastell]

I like how good it fits and looks on the phone but, I live in tropical weather and I don't like how sticky it became after a couple of days of normal use.

[@MinimalisTech]

I've actually never used any of the apple silicone cases ever. Thinking I might try one out

[@AndrewClare]

It’s definitely worth trying at least once

[@kavin1814]

Do apple silicon case start sticking to cloth or jeans?

[@RosamariaRodriguez-h4i]

I found one for 15 pro max for a couple dollars at a thrift store. It was in a speck box. When I opened it up saw it was an Apple silicone case cypress color /mint green . With the money I save I included a zagg screen protector $59. The newest one. My concern is that the phone slides in so easily. I question if it secure enough . I’ve dropped it a few times from desk height. Didn’t pop out of case. But not risking it. So ordered the Mophie battery case. Always trusted Mophie products. Used them on iPhone before. Even otter box cases.

[@blackphonecase]

The matte screen protector looks so sleek! Love that

[@MarcP5267]

Hands down the Apple silicone case is the best in the hand case out there. Its form factor is like you’re almost holding an iPhone naked.

[@martinpaniceres8352]

I don’t think so, need to try the Pitaka to feel that

[@MickGeorge-u6i]

I just picked up the bright yellow silicone case for the iPhone 16+ it is a bit slippery. It does seem to get a little bit, but the case looks really solid. I’m not a person who drops my phone. I don’t go around dropping my phone. I’ve never dropped an iPhone to be honest. But I think it’s a nice case pricey yes but everything at Apple is pricey. Just because it’s Apple. But we’ll see how it works. It feels nice covers all the necessary areas.

Hi Andrew, I have the iPhone 14 Pro and it has poor battery life, screen scrolling problems and some other bugs and random overheating. Should I trade in to the the 15 Pro Max or keep the 14 Pro and instead get a cheaper 13 Pro from eBay or parallel importer store, or wait for the 16 Pro?

[@AndrewClare]

Try taking it to Apple. You have Apple care right?

[@satxrnhimself]

@@AndrewClare In my country in Europe we don’t have Apple Care, but I have 1 year warranty. But the Apple Employer told me it’s a software issue, but even I tried reinstalling the iOS via iTunes and factory reset it, it still has all those bugs and issues. Btw, I really liked the 13 Pro series battery life, and I like the new Natural Titanium color and want the bigger and better battery life of the 15PM. So therefore, is the 15PM as good as the 13PM in terms of stability, bug-free software and best battery life possible?

If you can get the 15 pro max

Hi, I use winter blue silicone case for my 15pro max It looks pretty However since it’s lighter in colour, it gets yellow in the corners and since it’s MagSafe I don’t know the best and safe way to clean it. Would be great if anyone can share a solution if you’re facing the same. Thank you

[@nathanielmaduro8303]

Aren’t chips on the case covered under warranty? Did you try getting apple to replace the case for you?

[@AndrewClare]

Honestly not sure about that. Maybe

[@ktbeatty]

Appreciate everything covered in the video, but at the end of the day, any review can be boiled down to one simple thing: you buy the case every year and use it as your primary case. That’s a clear, and honest, recommendation for a product review.

[@Wiseguy1138]

Something I've noticed with Apple made silicone cases is the case pops off on the corners every time I take my phone out of the pocket. I find this with every case actually but it seems more pronounced and the case pops off even more when it's the Apple MagSafe silicone cases.

[@vivianjdcosta]

The best silicone case I used on an iPhone was iPhone 7 Plus black silicone case which with brutal usage going through PUBG a lot games lasted without a damage except for wear and only broke 3 years later . Imagine getting angry after a a loss and throwing your phone and it bounced and you took it back and saw if you damaged anything and all fine and play another game 😂. The best silicone cases was before the 12 series after that it’s business now.

When you drop your phone pretty much any case is going to get damaged. As long as it protects your phone. A silicone case is going to get damaged when you drop it. The issue with the Apple case is price. No way it’s worth $50. $35 maybe.

[@themariorr2174]

That’s the whole purpose of having a case on your smartphone. It’s there to protect phone from unexpected drops etc. If you smak your misses one, two , three times. Think she will not last long, so does the case.

[@raroshraj]

the only way to make this case worth it is to get the case switched out before the 1 yr warranty runs out by apple, especially when you get the chipping on the corners. apple will replace it no questions asked, so essentially youre paying $50 for 2 years worth

[@kilipaki87oritahiti]

I never use the cases from Apple themselves. Overpriced garbage that doesn’t hold up nor protect your phone. I’ve been using the same cheap TPU case from Aliexpress for the past 4 years on my Iphone 11 pro max, and it’s still good as new. Dropped it a ton, on asphalt, tile and concrete as well as regular flooring and no indents or cracking whatsoever🤷🏾‍♀️ When that happened to the Apple Leather case, huge indent on the side of the case that hit the floor. The silicone one is a magnet for debris like dust particles and hair, as well as oily fingers prints. Not impressed. Also slippery. And at least on my phone with the silicone case once the buttons are really hard to press for some weird reason. Hate it. And yes as you mentioned, hard to clean. Not an issue on my Auto Focus Faux Leather TPU case from China🤣🤣🤣🙏🏾

I wouldn’t have bought it if they didn’t have it on eBay for 15 bucks brand new. Am i crazy or does it change anyone else’s background?

No way that’s a coincidence right?

The amount of hypocrisy by this company is staggering. We'll remove everything from the box besides cable due to ✨environment ✨. We'll remove leather case that is much more durable and biodegradable and swap it with much more fragile silicon cases for the same price due to ✨environment ✨, but simultaneously we'll make your phone's battery unusable after 6-12 months and force you to purchase another one for the 1/4 price of the entire phone or you'll forever get non-genuine battery message if you buy it from "unauthorized" reseller. Also, we'll make your phone laggy and obsolete forcing you to replace it every year, but we really care for the ✨environment ✨. After 20+ years of using everything apple, it truly disgusts me what it has became.
