When not in use, it’s a lightweight and pocketable square that you can quickly expand to create a magnetic charging stand for iPhone and also reveal a Qi charging pad that’s perfect for AirPods.

49% off From $25

Okay, the (not so) FineWoven has not gone over well, but if you ask me, the official Apple Silicone Cases remain a solid option for folks with a penchant for first-party accessories. Over at Amazon today, we have spotted some price drops on a range of different colors options for iPhone 15, 15 Plus, and 15 Pro nearing 50% in savings in some cases. While some folks might already be set for iPhone 15 cases, with an eye on the upcoming 16 series handsets from Cupertino, some might rather stick with the current-gen and skip over to what could be the iPhone 17 Ultra  – the next iPhone X moment. If you fall in the latter category today’s price drops on the Apple Silicone iPhone 15 cases might just be the summer fresh you’re after. Head below for a closer look.

But over on its official Amazon storefront, you can secure one for $44.99 shipped after clipping on the on-page coupon. While it has been sitting at $50 for a couple months on Amazon, today’s deal is easily one of the best we have tracked outside of the limited early bird offers. Really the only thing we didn’t love about this one after going hands-on was the price, but that all changes with today’s deal. Head below for more.
