This year, Apple launched the new iPhone 15 series at the autumn conference. It also completely canceled the leather iPhone protective case and Apple Watch strap and replaced them with a more environmentally friendly “fine texture” material. Although for environmental reasons, most people agree with Apple’s decision to abandon leather accessories this year. However, the iPhone 15 fine texture protective case has been rated by foreign media as one of the most failed products. There have been many consumer complaints since its release, causing Apple officials to explain to retail staff how to care for it.

Previously, iFixit took everyone to use a microscope to observe the details of Apple’s new “fine texture” protective case. However, many consumers have complained about the durability of this new material that replaces leather and the tendency to produce traces of use. Many foreign media outlets have also given this protective case a negative review. According to foreign media 9to5Mac, I spent some time actually using the fine textured protective case on the iPhone 15 Pro Max, and it was ultimately disappointing.

After less than two days (48 hours) of use out of the box, the protective case has shown the condition shown below, and it has already produced obvious traces of use under normal daily use, just like it has been used for several months. . They didn’t deliberately “care” for the phone case. They just put the phone in their backpack, took it in and out of their pockets, and put it on a wireless charger to charge, just like most people’s daily use situations.

In addition to some doubts about the durability of the material, there also seems to be problems with the design of the phone case, which is the last straw that breaks the camel’s back when foreign media think this product fails. The opening of the USB-C charging port is so narrow and imprecise that most USB-C charging cables cannot be successfully passed through for charging.

For example, they used Nomad’s USB-C charging cable to try to charge the phone, but the obvious opening was too small and the charging cable could not be connected.

So far, foreign media generally believe that Apple’s new “fine texture” protective case is like a failed product. However, Apple also sent a new memo to its sales staff, which provides guidance on how to solve problems raised by customers such as the durability and material structure of the “fine texture” phone case. In this note, Apple Keys employees clean “Fine Texture” accessories:

To clean or reduce scratches on your phone case, first remove your iPhone from the fine textured protective case, then follow these steps in sequence:
In a clean container, mix 1 teaspoon (5 ml) liquid laundry detergent into 1 cup (250 ml) water. Soak a lint-free cloth in the soapy water solution, roll it out slightly, then gently rub the cloth against the surface of the case for 1 minute. Wipe the box clean with a separate cloth slightly dampened with fresh water. Dry the case with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth, making sure to remove any excess moisture.
The material may look different and wear over time as the fibers are compressed during normal use. Some scratches may fade over time.
