The minute I decided Apple’s much-hated FineWoven iPhone case was a lamentable piece of crap was the minute that I popped one onto my brand-new iPhone 15 Pro back in 2023.

Apple had discontinued its leather iPhone cases and shoved the textile FineWoven case at us across the metaphorical table like a drunk shoving change across the bar for a lousy tip. “Here, take this. It’s good enough for ya.”

Only it wasn’t good. The FineWoven cases had all the durability of cardboard shoes. Birds sang, and heavenly rays shone down on the day Apple discontinued them. Now with the introduction of another iPhone, the iPhone 17, Apple is releasing another new case, the TechWoven case, and at least this time, it promises it’ll hold up to normal use.
