Just received mine, certainly looks to be genuine, with the tear off seal on the box
Has a slight blemish in the leather (indentation) I take it this is this normal with it being real leather?

Mine had a slight indentation on the very edge of the case.

Anyone who's bought one please advise, how does the case fit with a glass screen protector? Does the case lip sit on the actual glass or falls short of it? Leaving a dust trap round the edge
Cheers

It's the (product) red edition case which I didn't realise.

Pleased to report mine arrived today and I'm as sure as I can be it's the real deal. Packaging had the security peel off tabs, it has a serial number and the case is perfect inside and out. I will be buying the blue one as well. I have the SE and its fits like a glove. :smiley:

I'd like to think it's a real one just that they're becoming EOL with the new phones just round the corner hence the price drop. The Apple cases are really nice, just not worth the £50 or whatever stupid price they try and charge for them.

very good price if it's real. I bought a "genuine apple" leather case from amazon for my 6S about a year ago, it was only when I went into an apple store they told me it wasn't real. Visually it looked identical but when I got handed a real one it just felt different and the finish inside was just that bit better. Remember amazon got busted not long ago for selling apple stuff as genuine when it was fake.
incidentally, my "fake" genuine apple product red leather case is still going strong today albeit well-worn lol.

I went into an Apple Store with a dodgy lightning cable got from a high street retailer (second hand). Didn't feel right & iTunes told me it was a fake when I plugged my phone in using said cable.

Also found the same in light blue from another seller for £8.05

Apple Store said it was genuine.
