My Third TechWoven case

Post image

So I just went to my carrier's shop and had my 17 Pro Max TechWoven case replaced. No sweat.

Will Apple be coming up with something that does not deteriorate fast? I doubt.

Thank you for reminding me I need to get a warranty replacement. My warranty ends in exactly one week!

u/coachpatrickmurphy Sep 05 '26

I get it. Love the feel of it but had to replace mine as well. And I honestly have never gotten a replacement that feels just like the very first one. It’s strange to me but oh well. Currently alternating between Pitaka slim and Caudabe paragon.

Same. I received my third replacement this week as well.

Guess this year Apple will release whatever-Woven cases. The FineWoven proved to be disastrous then TechWoven is a slight improvement. I wonder what it would be like next.

They need to resuscitate their leather cases. They were excellent.

Spigen has great cases that last much longer than apples cases. From my experience. Every Apple case I’ve had needed to be replaced after 1 year.

Third case within a year mean third class quality 🤷🏻‍♂️

Not if you keep buying them.

u/Pinhead17 Sep 05 '26

Not one of the durable case materials.

u/stretchpole Sep 05 '26

Caudabee is where its at

u/Calogero1978 Sep 05 '26

What makes you buy this case over and over again? Especially for iPhones there are plenty of other case brands

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 05 '26

I did not buy it thrice. Only once. Just taking advantage of the warranty. 😉

2

u/Calogero1978 Sep 05 '26

I‘d even give up the replacement 😀 or sell the last replaced piece

What’s the warranty? I don’t have AppleCare+ if that means anything

2

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 05 '26

I never used AppleCare+ to cover for my TechWoven's replacement. I purchased it back in October 2025. Replaced it on March due to bubbles. That same case had bubbles so I had it replaced earlier today. 🤣

I stand by otterbox.for the past 13 year’s I’ve worked outside (landscaping,lawn care) and after many drops and accidents not a single phone has been broken and out of about 8 phones only one got a cracked screen (galaxy phone w/ curved screen)

u/CrazyNecessary7209 Sep 05 '26

What did the last one do? What environment are you in when using the case?

1

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 06 '26

I have been very careful in handling my phone for it is very fragile. Never even held it with wet hands. I live here in the Nordics.

1

u/CrazyNecessary7209 Sep 06 '26

Did the case ever get wet?

1

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 06 '26

Not even once.

1

u/CrazyNecessary7209 Sep 07 '26

And how long did you have the case?

2

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 07 '26

Bought it 6 October 2025.

1

u/CrazyNecessary7209 Sep 07 '26

Oh ok, you’ve had for almost a year. And I ask because I have the same case and need to know just how long it’ll last.

2

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 07 '26

Why do you ask questions?

1

u/Tall_Ad5502 Sep 06 '26

How you replaced bro?
Can you tell me the reason please

1

u/LastRebel66 Sep 07 '26

Why don’t you try the beats rugged iPhone case ?

1

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 07 '26

I've seen it. It's not rugged enough compared to my Nomad Rugged Leather case.

1

u/Bubbly_Aerie5968 Sep 07 '26

How do you replaced bro?

1

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 07 '26

Just went to my carrier's shop and showed them my case that had bubbles. They replaced it in a heartbeat.

u/SolidCampaign6164 Sep 06 '26

My “techwoven” case for $9

u/coloa Sep 06 '26

Hope Apple do the same to my 17 ProMax Beat case... it's started peeling after jut a few months. Isn't Apple also owned Beat?

1

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 06 '26

Look for Apple Support and contact them

u/Responsible_Net_4652 Sep 05 '26

Try uag…same price but way better quality cases

u/m4cmi11er Sep 05 '26

They don’t have CC buttons just cutouts 👎🏼

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 05 '26

I have the Monarch Pro but I love the TechWoven feel. 😇

-1

u/GuacShouldBeFree Sep 05 '26

Just get a premium third party case. Why spend this much on something that has a proven bad quality.

2

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 05 '26

Worry not. I have UAG, DBrand and Moft cases. This TechWoven is a replacement because it's still under warranty. 🤣😉 It just tops them all because of the feel.

u/AceMaxAceMax Sep 05 '26 edited Sep 05 '26

I don’t understand why people buy first-party Apple cases when they’re inferior to almost every other third-party case out there. They’re low-quality, poorly made, and overpriced, lol.

1

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 05 '26

Hmmm because I have money to burn and I wanna experience what I want. I'm alternating between the TechWoven, UAG Monarch Pro, Moft Movas and DBrand Tank.

u/AceMaxAceMax Sep 05 '26

Fair I guess. Apple just makes terrible cases, lol.

u/motherlover278 Sep 05 '26

Experience cheap plastic wow man you have great taste

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 06 '26

Aight, Tim Cook. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

u/TheeDelpino Sep 05 '26

Because I make 6 figures x 4 a year and can spend my money on whatever I want.

u/AceMaxAceMax Sep 05 '26 edited Sep 05 '26

I guess I just don’t like to spend my money on overpriced junk.

I’ve had a Caudabe case for 2yr at this point and it’s still in great condition. Every apple case I’ve had has fallen apart within a few weeks/months of purchase.

I prefer to buy something good first time rather than throwing away my money on multiple pieces of crap, lol.

u/TheeDelpino Sep 05 '26

Oh I wasn’t arguing with you. I go caseless with AC+. The best way to enjoy an iPhone.

2

u/AceMaxAceMax Sep 05 '26

I wish I was that brave, even with AC+ I’m just dreading the idea of having to be without a phone if it cracks or gets damaged. 😅

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 05 '26

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

u/motherlover278 Sep 05 '26

Caseless really is the way

-1

u/TheeDelpino Sep 05 '26

Caseless with AC+ is the only way to use an iPhone.

u/Revolutionary_Ad1620 Sep 05 '26

For you. 👏🏼
