read a review, someone's apple red leather casing already stained within a few hours of use, something to do with the nature of leather

It's leather so it is subject to wear and tear.

That is the characteristics of genuine leather.

I will be worried if it remains sparkling clean after a week of usage

People who buy gold 5s -- would they really put a case on its back? :s22:
From the front view, the gold 5s looks exactly like the white 5s, so if you put a case on it, u might as well buy the white one, no difference... i doubt many people will get iPhone 5s cases if they buy gold 5s, unless it is a transparent case.

For me, i will be worried if it doesn't remain sparkling clean after a week of usage...

If get a dark color like black, minor dirt shd not be obvious. For me what matters most is the texture, the overall fit aesthetics. If apple can do a job in this i dont mind paying the 60 bucks for it

if dun want stain, black color is the only way to go

Thats the problem. Genuine leather aint cheap but its gonna show stains and marks more obvious. But i love such natural "damages" even more. Best if got stretch-marks etc, but im sure they only use the as perfect side as possible for this case as the area is small.

Iphone 5S cover is different from Iphone 5 ?
I thought the dimensions are the same.

From what i understand everything is the same with the exception of the camera dual led flash cutouts. Most cases are ok.
