After purchasing, some users have noticed that the silicone case has a little bit of a caveat.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apple designed two cases for iPhone Duo: a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/47luBAn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$79 silicone case<\/a>, and a <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/4Bj3bsD\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">$129 folio case<\/a>. This concern is about the former.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/47luBAn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">\u00a0silicone case<\/a> for iPhone Duo, you\u2019ll actually need to expose adhesive on the case for it to stick to your iPhone. Apple decided to opt for adhesives rather than using magnets. Presumably, the case would fall off if you don\u2019t use the adhesive. This isn\u2019t a new concept for foldable cases.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The unfortunate thing about this is that you likely can\u2019t swap cases or go caseless as easily, and even if you do, the adhesive wouldn\u2019t be as effective after you take it off.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This isn\u2019t a super major deal, but something to keep in mind if you\u2019re going to purchase <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/47luBAn\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Apple\u2019s official silicone case<\/a> for iPhone Duo.
