Here’s a screen cap of the Apple Silicone with the capacitive button over the Camera Control. I won’t be buying any cases that have a cutout instead of a capacitive button (ordered this case in Stone Gray and Black).

Torn between Apple clear and Otterbox Lumen. All I know is I want a closed bottom and covered camera button. Do we know if those cases have those?

From the clear case description and similar to their silicon - they are putting a capactive layer / sapphire crystal for the camera button.

But Apple's clear cases have always and still will have an open bottom - like the beats case.

I think becuase Otterbox Lumen is only sold through Apple Stores and possibly Otterbox direct, they may have that button covered similarly. We'll all know by Thursday this week when they start delivering.

Which color is that one? Doesn't look like Ultramarine/Denim. And seems there isn't other blue color.

The new Beats cases, nonsensical branding aside, look quite appealing, although I miss more colors. I really want to hold one of them in my hand, see how an iPhone 16c would feel

Just ordered the White/Black Speck Candyshell Grip for my Black 16 Pro. Should be arriving on the 20th.

Thanks! Might have to go with the Lumen then. I think green would go best with desert titanium, and I love green, but I REALLY love that pink so I have a tough decision to make.

No one looking into the Peak Design cases? Seems like they all have the cut out. Given their 15 launch that went horribly with the action button I'm a bit worried about buying from them at launch.
