CTOnews.com, September 21 (Xinhua)-- Apple has announced that it will stop selling leather accessories and claims that its latest "FineWoven" series of iPhone protective cases and accessories are more environmentally friendly. But now it seems that the early evaluation of Apple's new materials is negative.

Apple says the new fabric is made of durable ultra-fine twill fibers with a suede-like soft texture. Among them, the price of the fine woven twill iPhone case is as high as 479 yuan, the price of the AirTag fine woven twill key chain is 299 yuan, and the price of the Apple Watch watch band is 779 yuan.

But the quality of the iPhone's finely woven twill case seemed to infuriate some users, with several MacRumors forum members saying they had returned the case, with some posting: "after getting it in person, it feels more like a $10 shell on Amazon than Apple quality, especially at this price point." Another netizen said: "it has been received and returned." it feels cheap, like cardboard. "

Many netizens complained on Twitter, with one saying, "since iPhone 7, I have been using the Apple shell to protect my phone, but I have never returned it as quickly as the FineWoven shell I ordered last Friday. FineWoven looks like junk."

"just got it, it's basically like a polyester pillowcase in a plastic shell," said one Reddit user. I don't hate it, but $60 is a bit insulting. "me too," another Redditor replied. "this material looks and feels good. Although it doesn't look like leather or suede at all, it's definitely not worth $60."

CTOnews.com noted that perhaps the fiercest criticism came from The Verge editor Alison Johnson, who called the new iPhone shell "very bad" and described the new accessories as "categorically terrible" in general. According to Johnson, FineWoven accessories are easy to wear and stick to fluff, leaving permanent scratches on their nails.
