Victor H - "9.5/10 for this case but it 'COULD' be cheaper."

The fruit logo costs 38.5$

Or you can get a nice rugged case for that $39.

Because it’s made by apple, because it’s better, because it’s going to be available in their countries, because they receive a voucher. Do you want more reasons?

Good one.

Ouch! That's painful.

You forgot the wireless charger and Apple Care since you are naming absolutely unneeded upsales, since third party accessories don’t exist.

Only a rube would use a second rate 3rd party accessory on such a highly engineered sophisticated device. I mean how faux pas would it be to show up at the craft beer festival with a cheap Amazon case. There is no room for logic or economics when it comes to supporting mother Apple. Good day sir

You sound like a Starbucks and IPA drinking soy boy using words like “rube” and “faux pas”. Sure you didn’t misspell your name “Panzey”?

Who said that iPhone is everyone’s definition of an affordable phone? It’s not and it’s never been; everyone has learned by now that if one wants an iPhone, one has to cough up the money to do so.

This is true. This would need to be proven. I'll be interested in having someone test this out, since I don't have an Xr to do so lol.

Since Apple is NOT selling this case for 999$, surely this will go yellow for sure...

A greedy company, charging a ridiculous price, cause it knows people like you will justify giving your money away, like you're doing now.

I bought the 49€ Samsung case for 5€ on Black Friday. The retail price is 10€ higher than this one. Would I have paid 49€? No. Is it one of the best cases on the market? Definitely yes.

Samsung does. The Alcantra cover for S9 is 49€, the protective (the plastic one) is 39€ while the Hyperknit (a case made out from fabric, the same one as in underwear) is 34€.
