The upcoming iPhone 17 line-up may be introduced together with first-party cases made by a new material developed in-house by Apple. According to leakster MajinBuOfficial, the material in question is dubbed TechWoven, a supposed successor to the iPhone maker’s FineWoven which is said to comprise of “technical fabric” that promises impact, scratches and daily wear protection, as well as providing an elegant, minimalist look.
Also included as part of the leak are renders and real-life photos featuring the iPhone 17 Pro Max version of the alleged TechWoven cases. Based on what’s shown, the new material appears to offer a, well, woven texture similar to its predecessor, available in four different colour options: Black, Brown, Blue, Green, and Purple.
MajinBuOfficial adds that the cases also come with two lanyard holes, non-slip texture for improved grip, and MagSafe compatibility. While only the Pro Max version is shown, it is safe to assume that the other models under the upcoming iPhone 17 series would also feature their own iterations of the accessory – provided that this leak is accurate, of course.
No pricing for the TechWoven cases have been revealed yet, but we won’t disregard the possibility of them being as pricey as their FineWoven predecessors. Given the poor critical reception of the latter, let’s just hope that Apple’s latest attempt fares much better.
