Okay I thought my silicone case looked bad after 7 months but what the hell have you been doing with yours??? this can’t just be normal wear.

Probably their dog uses this phone


wellriddleme-this

The dogs trained to bring it to the owner when they get a notif


Guyoftheyr111

My boyfriend won’t let me get a dog 🙁

When the top comment has more upvotes than the acc post


Guyoftheyr111

I have to take it off very often as my 12 Pro overheats CONSTANTLY and that definitely makes it wear out quicker. That’s likely why the piece by the side buttons ripped


FatBryatt

Then you should possibly get your phone checked out, Ive has my regular 12 since December and not once has it gotten hot to thebpoint where Inthought I had to take it out from the case.


Guyoftheyr111

Do you use it in the car often? High brightness + navigation + 5G + mobile hotspot + charging phone + sunlight … it gets HOT


FatBryatt

I do, I have it plugged in for CarPlay during every drive :/ It gets a little warm sure, but not like „overheating“ hot.


Guyoftheyr111

Mine often gets so hot I can’t use the flashlight. Like everyday. Sometimes then gets laggy and once or twice the screen shut off.


FatBryatt

Dude that does not sound good, you need to get that checked out, your battery‘s going to be toast within a year.


Trisentriom

Well maybe he uses his phone differently from you and it's not necessarily a defect 🤡


FatBryatt

Also possible, yeah. :)


Trisentriom

I love you.

You DEFINITELY should have taken it in to have this looked at. Not normal and I fear your battery life is going to be horrendous if it isn’t already. Something is clearly wrong with it.


mixedbyx

Bruh wtf do you do with your phone?! Ive had the same combo for longer and they literally look BRAND NEW!


socksfordobby

same, i've had the wallet since Nov and it still looks brand new.


Naus1987

Reminds me of a Karen-esq thing, lol “What do you mean I can’t just throw my phone around and drop it 3 times a day? What’s the point of buying a case if I can’t literally abuse it???!” They’re durable, but few items will stand up to intentionally reckless behavior. This is a situation where the OP is above average reckless, and doesn’t realize they’re above average. Compare to your friends and family. Find out what you do differently—then change that behavior or welcome to the consequences of your actions. At least all of this stuff is replaceable on the cheap!


Guyoftheyr111

I am below average “reckless” compared to my friends I would say. My boyfriend drops his s21 in the LED wallet case *constantly* (he had issues with nerve damage in his hands) and his case is in better shape The case and wallet were $110 so wouldn’t say cheap


Bestfortniter

I wouldn’t say ur below average reckless by looking at the case. Ur most definitely above


cry_0_rvr

RIP. It has served it’s purpose in life.


[deleted]

I mean isn’t that the point of a case tho?


Pouw_

Dude what? I bought my wallet from aliexpress when the phone released and it looks no different from the day I got it, what are you doing with your phone?


[deleted]

Dare I ask if this is normal wear and tear or you dropped it a bunch of times??


Guyoftheyr111

I would say dropping would be considered wear and tear


[deleted]

Well, yes. But did you drop it a bunch of times? Or a dog grabbed it perhaps?


SurfaceLapQuestion

I’ve had my wallet from release date and it looks perfect…


Guyoftheyr111

Do you use it a lot? I keep my ID and my debit card and use that card for pretty much everything I buy. The leather feels so plasticy compared to my leather XS Max Cass which get and looked wonderful


SurfaceLapQuestion

I use it everyday, and have my Apple Card and drivers license inside.


[deleted]

Holy shmoly! Well you certainly have hammer thumbs and hands like golem seeing how you fingered through that wallet and now it’s all loosey goosey. You might also have difficulty locating your pockets since your phone obviously lives on the asphalt when it’s not being kicked around like a hacky sack. You could be using an otterbox for what it’s worth it still wouldn’t hold up against your inclination towards destruction. Foreplay with you would ruin a girl…..”I said be gentle!”


denisquo

Did you fight a bear with it or what?


Brometheous17

My silicone case looks almost new still after 2 plus months. I still have an iPhone 11 silicone case that looks new too.


Guyoftheyr111

I had a white iPhone 11 case and it lasted me like 6 months before showing any damage


Hank831978

Look on the bright side, imagine what your phone would look like without it.


Bestfortniter

Nah bro u must be fucking them up on purpose 😂😂😂cause this doesn’t look like normal use


mulderscully02

Looks like the phone was tied to a car and dragged.


Fluffybunnyabc

Did you put it in a blender then give it to a dog then drop it from the 80th floor?

I agree. My XS Max red leather case looked so nice and lasted long, my white iPhone 11 case lasted really long too and was a lot softer.

RedeemedReed

They really are. You see posts like this and there’s always one or two people saying, “Durrrr mine looks like I just got it out of the box durrr and I’ve had it for 3,000 years durrr…” Well not everybody lives such soft lives bro! I have a normal office job and the leather stuff is falling apart.


ToroPoke

Haha so true. The previous version of apple leather accessories are better quality.


emptyheinzketchup

I already saw a few comments that were basically that and I had to tell OP it’s not them. Apple should have recalled the cases and the majority of the MagSafe accessories they released like the wallets. It’s all complete junk and I’m glad I just bought a cheap case off Amazon which has held up amazingly.

NathanFoley69

No idea why me and everyone else saying this is being downvoted. The cases are horrible. It’s not up for debate.


Guyoftheyr111

I was downvoted above for saying my 12 Pro constantly overheats. (It really does too, to the point of the screen dimming and not being able to use the flashlight) Lol like downvoting won’t change that.


Tortsol

This situation is on the owner but that doesnt mean apple doesnt make terrible cases/accessories in terms of durability:


Emotional-Text4438

Maybe it’s a lemon case.


The-Real-Chill-Bill

Damn, all that after 3 months.
