I posted this comment on reddit, but this whole situation is fascinating. Not necessarily that Finewoven is garbage. Apple's leather cases have been bad since at least the iPhone 11 and their silicone cases have sucked for a while as well. As soon as Apple announced FineWoven I knew it wasn't going to be good as their leather cases.

What is fascinating are the issues with fit and finish. Cutouts not matching up is very weird for Apple. It makes me feel like some senior official at Apple left years ago and when Apple decided to switch away from leather they didn't have that senior person there to oversee the effort and make sure that it works and is high quality.
