Silicone case turning yellow

Has anyone else found that the white silicone case starts to turn yellow? I’ve had mine since March and the back is so yellow it looks horrible and I don’t want to use it any more. For an expensive case from Apple it doesn’t seem right? Can they be defective?

iPhone X, iOS 12

Magsafe Silicon Case I have bought Magsafe Silicon case 2 months before from Authorised Apple Showroom. I was very satisfied with the colour and finishing of the case. After almost a month my case's colour started fading away and after that its small small parts started coming out. I'll upload the snaps here. Anyone faced the same issue?. I use almost all apple products. And the thing is this is the first time one apple product with with this much bad quality.

13 Pro max silicone case is peeling off My silicone case isn’t even 8 months old and its peeling off on the sides. I have silicone cases from my 8plus and xs max that still looks new after 4 years. Do I qualify then for a replacement because its definitely a factory defect?

That’s what happens to white plastic or silicone.

They yellow over time and exposure to UV and dirt.
