Combining a leather wallet and a removable case into a vintage book, Twelve South’s BookBook iPhone case has returned for Apple’s iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro.
The BookBook is Twelve South’s line of leather protective cases for iPhones and MacBooks that resemble Harry Potter spell books. The latest BookBook for the iPhone 15 lineup retains all the trademarks that have made the original beloved.
For example, hardback covers and a rigid spine protect from scratches and dings, while a handy magnetic tab ensures the case won’t accidentally flip open.
Twelve South’s BookBook case for the iPhone 15 family
The BookBook uses premium sustainable leather that develops a fine patina over time. The built-in protective pocket will hold your ID, Apple Card or other cards.
A camera cutout on the back allows you to snap photos and videos while the case is closed, which is a big plus because you might otherwise miss a moment. You’ll also like how this case opens to an integrated viewing stand for conducting FaceTime calls, enjoying your favorite shows, watching YouTube, etc.
I’ve owned many cases throughout the years that look and feel great, but the BookBook is a brand I always return to for stylish leather smartphone protection.
This isn’t a minimalist case, so you’ll feel extra weight and bulk. But then again, the BookBook protects your iPhone completely when closed. It also looks great, and I like how it conceals my device in something that looks like a spell book.
Works with MagSafe and StandBy
If you’re looking for a MagSafe-compatible case to use with your iPhone while enjoying iOS 17’s StandBy feature, the BookBook has you covered.
The internal shell easily separates from the wallet. Built-in magnets let you use the BookBook shell with MagSafe chargers, car mounts and desktop stands.
The BookBook is available for the iPhone 12 models and later. It supports most Qi wireless chargers except for the Mophie Wireless Charging Stand and the iOttie iON.
