This week on Cult of Mac’s podcast: A string of leaks from Majin Bu showcase a new line of “TechWoven” iPhone cases. This looks to be Apple’s replacement for the hated FineWoven cases, with a new material that will make the whole thing less sucky.

Also on The CultCast:

  • iPhone 17e might take a welcome trip to the Dynamic Island, and the Apple Watch might add Touch ID.
  • An eye-popping eight-display setup leaves us slightly amazed and full of questions.
  • Anker’s brand-new iPhone power bank is super-slim and super-cool.
