I've gone for the plum for my obligatory official Apple case, have one in the cupboard from the 12 PM and it's a nice colour.
It’s a good color. I’m just not used to a darker color on my phone. It is pretty tho. I wanted it for my 12 pro max back in the day but never got around to it.

I wonder if they’ll ever release more pastel colors in the future. Part of me doesn’t wanna get the phone if they don’t. I have a 14 pro max with a sky case and a light pink case.

It looks like Apple is only offering silicone and clear cases for the 16.

Caudabe is my first choice, but I wish they would show the capture button in these photos. Hopefully it's not as big of a cutout as the Mous cases. I'd try Apple's case, but the silicone cases are terrible quality. And I don't honestly think I mind a cutout at all.

Yeah, will be interesting to see what they've come up with.

Seeing as the Capture button is sapphire glass, at least it'll be hard wearing if choosing a cut out case.

Why? The camera lenses are sapphire glass and I've never worried about durability.

That's what I mean, the sapphire Capture button will be very durable so won't have to worry too much it being exposed on cases with cut outs. Still would look better with a button though.

I’ve used the Spigen Liquid Air case on every iPhone I’ve had since 2017 and will continue to do so this on the 16 Pro I order on Friday.

not ordering one but haven’t seen yet in this thread. beats has some nice looking new cases. maybe @Brooke795 might find a color she likes. open bottom.

I saw those and was excited for a second. The open bottom is a deal breaker in my house though. Andar might be a deal breaker for my husband with that ugly cutout. I always go back to apple because it’s the best protection I’ve found that doesn’t scratch the phone because it’s lined with microfiber.

I just hope apple brings out some of these lighter colors that they brought to the watch bands. Those colors was what I was hoping for ultimately

The official case colours are awful this year. I also hate silicone as it picks up pocket fluff. I think I still might just go with the Stone Gray, hope for the best, and use colourful wallpapers.
