Apple is on the verge of revealing the iPhone 17 series. While we wait for the big day (likely September 9), leaks are filling in more and more of the picture. The latest wave of leaks isn’t just about the phones themselves but also about the accessories Apple plans to launch alongside them.

We already shared a look at the rumored TechWoven case colors, and now even more images have surfaced, giving us a clearer view.

Reportedly, these new cases will debut alongside the iPhone 17 lineup as the direct successor to FineWoven. The concept is still fabric-based, but this time Apple is going for stronger durability and better everyday usability.

As we already shared with you yesterday, the rumored case colors include:

  • Black
  • Brown
  • Blue
  • Green
  • Purple
  • Orange

The surface features a dense, slightly textured weave designed to improve grip and cut down on wear. Apple is apparently aiming to reduce glossing, keeping the case looking consistent even after weeks of use.

The buttons are said to be metallic with improved tactile feedback, and the cases themselves should be fully compatible with accessories. There are even two openings at the bottom edge meant for shoulder straps or add-ons.

Are you planning to get one of the new TechWoven cases for the iPhone 17?



Looking at the leaked images, the colors appear more muted than flashy, but they do pair well with the rumored finishes of the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max. What remains unclear for now is how the cases will look for the regular iPhone 17 or the brand-new iPhone 17 Air, but naturally, Apple will likely make sure they line up with the phones’ color options, too.

Speaking of color options, we’ve put together a full breakdown of all the shades the iPhone 17 Pro models might arrive in this year, so check out our article for the complete list:


As for the phones, September 9 is shaping up to be the big reveal – a date Apple basically confirmed by accident in a recent slip-up. And the iPhone 17 lineup is expected to deliver some serious changes, particularly with the Pro models.

Yep, the Pro models are rumored to feature the biggest redesign in years and a new 48 MP telephoto camera, which could be the reason for the redesign itself.


Meanwhile, the iPhone 17 Air is shaping up to be the thinnest iPhone Apple has ever made, with a rumored thickness of just 5.4mm. To make that possible, it might come with a single rear camera and a smaller battery compared to the rest of the lineup.


The regular iPhone 17, on the other hand, isn’t expected to get the same level of upgrades, but leaks still point to a better front-facing camera, more RAM, and finally, a display with a refresh rate above 60Hz


If all the leaks and rumors hold true, we will have all the answers soon enough when Apple takes the stage to officially show off the iPhone 17 series.
