LONLIEdition | Italian Leather - for iPhone 16 Pro - Premium Italian Full Grain Leather Phone Case - Develop Unique Patina - Black Ink

Initial quality (new) is great. Looks and feels like the Apple leather cases of the past. Buttons are tactile and work seamlessly with the phone. Spruce color (appears more Forrest green in stock images but is more of an Olive drab) compliments the desert titanium phone very well.

The quality of leather is maybe a step or two under the top tier, which you can tell when you feel it and with how it patinas. It's pretty supple/soft/smooth, doesn't have that wrinkly elephant-skin look that some leathers do, but is clearly real leather. After 6 months, the patina (at least for me) seems to show up as just blackness on the edges. Doesn't look bad, but doesn't look incredible either.Buttons are very solid and match the color of the rings around the cameras on the Desert Tan iPhone 16 Pro

As a fashion designer, I’m very particular about color, materials, and how products feel in hand. This case exceeded my expectations in every way. The leather has a rich, premium feel, and the color is beautifully refined—nothing cheap or artificial-looking. It also doesn’t have that harsh chemical smell that some leather cases do, which I really appreciate.Beyond aesthetics, the quality and durability are impressive. I’ve accidentally dropped my phone a few times, and while the leather gets minor surface scratches, they blend in beautifully over time, giving it a natural patina. Most importantly, my phone has stayed completely protected. For the price, the craftsmanship and packaging feel like something much more expensive. I’ve owned many cases, but this one stands out. Highly recommend!

Overall, this case is pretty nice. It fits perfectly and looks great. My criticism is that the leather is very waxy feeling with actual wax residue that comes off on my fingers, especially in warm temps. I’m sure this is a coating for the leather to remain moisturized and protected from the elements, which is actually great. But I would prefer a coating that wasn’t so tacky and waxy feeling that performed the same result.In all of you don’t mind a waxy feeling the case is really nice.

The media could not be loaded. Feels like a quality case and the fit is nice, but if you’re looking for something that is in the green family I’d look elsewhere. It’s much more of a muddy griege color.

Ordered a black and a green Edition case. Unfortunately, the black one sent was the classic. BUT, I still think this Edition case is worthy of 5 stars. As a matter of fact the quality rivals (I actually think exceeds) that of far more expensive cases like the Bullstrap which after wear looks horrible. Difference between the Edition and Classic is the leather, smooth (prefer) for the Edition vs textured for the Classic. The camera ring on the Edition is leather, much like the Bullstrap, and metal for the Classic. I'd spend the extra money and go for the Edition and assure you it will be the best leather iphone case you've had. It's top notch. And for the price of one of the other, mostly hyped, brands that YouTube review visionaries recommend, you get 2 or 3 Edition cases. The green is stunning by the way. So if you're looking for a super high quality, beautiful leather case that has great button feel and looks elegant, grab one of these. And Amazon please send me the right version when I re order the black "Edition" case. Gracias.

This leather case is actually perfect. For the money, it puts Apple’s previous generation leather cases to shame. I love the way this one looks and feels. I have easy access to the camera button, and the case pops on and off like a breeze. I have dropped it a few times, but scuffs and small scratches disappear with time; durability is solid. The case doesn’t add a lot of thickness to the phone, and it still remains comfortable to hold. Functionally, it’s the perfect iPhone 16 Pro case. I might buy another!

The case fits perfectly. The leather has a nice feel and color. The bump around the camera area seems a bit high, but I guess that is necessary to protect the lenses. It fits like the old OEM leather cases from Apple, so I am impressed. The best part is that it costs less than the current crop of Apple OEM cases.
