Huh. Weird. I prefer leather cases despite the higher upfront cost, simply because they generally last the life of the phone for me. Not to mention, the wear patina tends to be way nicer than plastic or silicone, which ends up looking gross and cancerous comparatively quickly.

Last leather case I bought from Apple looked awful after 8 months of light use. I wouldn't buy another

It’s pandering to vegans by substituting fake leather.

There will still be plenty of nice 3rd party leather cases.

I’m pretty sure Nomad is still one of the go-to minimalist leather case makers, so I’ll probably snag one of those

No need to wrap your super hi tec communication device in a dead animal anyway.
