Three at the moment - clear Spigen Ultra Hybrid, Apple silicone in plum and periwinkle. Sometimes I go caseless, and then I attach an Apple wallet to help the grip a little.
Got a tip for us?

It’s literally insane that Caudabe could not put one singular button in their cases for the past 6 months…. Never seen anything like it. They’re acting like being asked to add a CC button, is like asking them to find the cure to cancer. Just laziness at this point, Idc what anyone says lol. Brands get specs on a new phone and produce a case WAY faster than 6 months.
I tried this one. 1st I taught it was just what I wanted. Then i realized Magsafe charging speed is basically cut in half, because the magnets are not in the right place. They should be way higher than then they are on the JUESHITUO.
My iPhone 16 Pro Max will be here this afternoon. It will go into an Otterbox Defender case. I have used this case on all of my iPhones, starting with the 6+. I have purchased this style for the last 3 iPhones. The new Otterbox Defender case is MagSafe compatible.
I was looking at this case installed on my Nephews 16 Pro and noted the cut-out for the side button. Andy likes this cutout because it is a nice grip to hold the phone with. I am going with an ESR glass screen protector and camera lens covers. I also ordered a Stanley 1913 Maxi zippered case to put it in. This is the Stanley thermos bottle, Stanley. There is room in it for the iPhone and charging cable. I will see if my FiiO BTR17 and its earphones will fit. I already have the mini version of this case, and it is very well built, of supple faux leather, with a heavy-duty zipper, and cloth lined interior.

Gotta’ sell through that stale inventory before introducing a new version that will instantly make it worthless.
So what is the consensus best case for the 16 Pro Max in terms of grip and comfort in the hand? I still haven't managed to find a decent case.
Phone Rebel Folding Lens Rings are In!
I couldn't decide whether to buy Matte Black or Ultra Orange, so I bought both.
I originally went for the orange, but, on checkout, they offered me 10% off if I bought another, so I did.

The full component kit for the folding orange with flat buttons is now available on both Amazon and on Phone Rebel's site.
Edit:
Wonder if the reason it didn't go up the same time as the camera ring only and the full black kit was because they edited the image to now no longer have an orange surround accent on the camera control button.

There doesn’t seem to be a consensus. For me, among full coverage cases, it’s the Phone Rebel Ultra.
Orange Tough Ultra still not in stock! ArghFull kits ordered, black & orange

Their cutout is horrible. There’s no excuse for not having a fully functional camera control button at this point.
Yeah, I skipped Caudabe for 16 release due to no CC button. Been looking for another case now and can't believe they haven't updated yet. I'll be skipping them completely.
Preach. Caudabe cases are incomplete. They have 4 buttons and the iPhone has 5. Inexcusable by this time of year.
I think Caudabe are releasing new cases on Friday.
Currently they are doing 24 hour flash sale, maybe a last push to get rid of their old stock.

After 6 months, let’s hope you’re right, and let’s hope they get it right. Even so, not sure I will buy one.
I’m sure you will and a lot of people here who are saying they aren’t will too. You said the same about Phone Rebel 😉
