Mixed Reactions to the Fine Woven Case

The Fine Woven case for the new iPhones has received mixed reviews. While some initial hands-on impressions were not overly critical, more users are expressing disappointment with the case. Many are dissatisfied with the feel and texture, which some describe as plasticky. The edges of the case are also a point of criticism, appearing cheaply made and lacking a seamless connection.
