Apple’s “premium” TechWoven case for iPhone 17 Pro isn’t enormously better than FineWoven, and still not a good replacement for leather.

With the iPhone 17 lineup, Apple introduced its largest case collection yet. Alongside the usual silicone and clear options, there are now bumper and super-slim cases for the iPhone Air and new TechWoven cases for the Pro models.

Apple is still in search of a higher-end phone case to complement its clear and silicone choices. The new TechWoven is an improvement over its last attempt, though I still have thoughts.
