LONLI Edition | Italian Leather - for iPhone 16 Pro - Premium Italian Full Grain Leather Phone Case - Develop Unique Patina - Saddle

As a fashion designer, I’m very particular about color, materials, and how products feel in hand. This case exceeded my expectations in every way. The leather has a rich, premium feel, and the color is beautifully refined—nothing cheap or artificial-looking. It also doesn’t have that harsh chemical smell that some leather cases do, which I really appreciate.Beyond aesthetics, the quality and durability are impressive. I’ve accidentally dropped my phone a few times, and while the leather gets minor surface scratches, they blend in beautifully over time, giving it a natural patina. Most importantly, my phone has stayed completely protected. For the price, the craftsmanship and packaging feel like something much more expensive. I’ve owned many cases, but this one stands out. Highly recommend!

Initial quality (new) is great. Looks and feels like the Apple leather cases of the past. Buttons are tactile and work seamlessly with the phone. Spruce color (appears more Forrest green in stock images but is more of an Olive drab) compliments the desert titanium phone very well.

Initial impressions: It feels really nice in hand and it’s definitely made out of leather as you can smell it right out of the box. If you used the original Apple leather cases for your older iPhones, this is a great alternative that won’t cost you $70. The buttons on the case do not rattle like on some other “high end” cases, and they feel very nice when pressing.Something to note; if you don’t like the camera button to be exposed and open, you should look into the Classic and Urban instead of the Edition version. Me personally, I like the camera cut out as it’s a lot easier to access, but it does leave that part exposed if you were to ding your phone there.My only complaint would be the color of the case, and in this case the Spruce. In the pictures it’s a lot more green but in reality it’s a little brownish/muddy green. Not worth to remove a star in my opinion, because at $40 I believe this is a very good leather case (if not the best for the price) when compared to others that are charging up to $90.Something worth mentioning in my opinion is their customer service. I don’t know if I’ve had a brand reach out, before I even received the product, with a welcome message and reassuring me that if I come across any issues to not hesitate and reach out to them. They didn’t ask for a review either, so I thought it’s worth a mention.I’ll update the review after a month or 2 of use, but I have no doubt this case will last and age well.

Overall, this case is pretty nice. It fits perfectly and looks great. My criticism is that the leather is very waxy feeling with actual wax residue that comes off on my fingers, especially in warm temps. I’m sure this is a coating for the leather to remain moisturized and protected from the elements, which is actually great. But I would prefer a coating that wasn’t so tacky and waxy feeling that performed the same result.In all of you don’t mind a waxy feeling the case is really nice.

The media could not be loaded. Feels like a quality case and the fit is nice, but if you’re looking for something that is in the green family I’d look elsewhere. It’s much more of a muddy griege color.

The quality of leather is maybe a step or two under the top tier, which you can tell when you feel it and with how it patinas. It's pretty supple/soft/smooth, doesn't have that wrinkly elephant-skin look that some leathers do, but is clearly real leather. After 6 months, the patina (at least for me) seems to show up as just blackness on the edges. Doesn't look bad, but doesn't look incredible either.Buttons are very solid and match the color of the rings around the cameras on the Desert Tan iPhone 16 Pro

Ordered a black and a green Edition case. Unfortunately, the black one sent was the classic. BUT, I still think this Edition case is worthy of 5 stars. As a matter of fact the quality rivals (I actually think exceeds) that of far more expensive cases like the Bullstrap which after wear looks horrible. Difference between the Edition and Classic is the leather, smooth (prefer) for the Edition vs textured for the Classic. The camera ring on the Edition is leather, much like the Bullstrap, and metal for the Classic. I'd spend the extra money and go for the Edition and assure you it will be the best leather iphone case you've had. It's top notch. And for the price of one of the other, mostly hyped, brands that YouTube review visionaries recommend, you get 2 or 3 Edition cases. The green is stunning by the way. So if you're looking for a super high quality, beautiful leather case that has great button feel and looks elegant, grab one of these. And Amazon please send me the right version when I re order the black "Edition" case. Gracias.

This leather case is actually perfect. For the money, it puts Apple’s previous generation leather cases to shame. I love the way this one looks and feels. I have easy access to the camera button, and the case pops on and off like a breeze. I have dropped it a few times, but scuffs and small scratches disappear with time; durability is solid. The case doesn’t add a lot of thickness to the phone, and it still remains comfortable to hold. Functionally, it’s the perfect iPhone 16 Pro case. I might buy another!
