is the finewoven case more durable than silicone?

My Silicone case has started peeling after less than a year of use and Apple say it’s normal wear and tear. Is the fine woven case more durable?

iPhone 15 Pro, iOS 17

How can I prevent wear and tear on my Apple Silicone case? Thought I'd gauge the communities thoughts on this. 5-month old Apple silicone case for iPhone 15 breaks through normal use ? 15-year old says the case edge broke and the silicone ripped as he picked it up from the side. Both the vendor and Apple have declined offering a replacement claiming its user wear and tear. Really ? We've bought a few of these over the years and never had this issue with Apple cases before. To me it looks as though the plastic edge has failed and the silicone has ripped where there's no internal lining. These things aren't cheap and you expect them last a little longer than 5 months. What do you think, should I pursue it ? Thanks, A [Re-Titled By Moderator]

iPhone MagSafe silicone case peeling off. My daughter’s case has the peeling off issue. She takes care of her phone and has never dropped it, scraped it, etc. The case is supposed to have a 1yr warranty. So is the peeling off under this warranty? She specifically wanted to buy this Apple product which I think is too expensive but I agreed because I had hig expectations that the craftsmanship will be worth the price. So now I am very disappointed and will be even more disappointed with the company if they can not do something with this issue.

Its worst, its a woven, so any scratch its not removable with a cleaning, the fabric tears up easily.

I got mine for my 15 pro max, 2 weeks now. magsafe accesories are leaving a mark, silicone case is way better.
