Apple replaced its leather cases with a new fabric option that's just as expensive. But how does it fare against the cheaper silicone cases?

FineWoven is a fabric material that has a unique feel, similar to a cross between nylon and velvet. It may take some getting used to, but it feels natural to the touch.
While silicone cases are known for their shock-absorbing properties, FineWoven cases are softer and more resistant to wear and tear, making them capable of handling the average fall.
FineWoven cases have fewer color options than silicone cases, but if you prefer a sophisticated and professional look, it's worth the extra $10 over silicone offerings. However, silicone may be more suitable if you prefer brighter colors and practicality.
