The Apple Clear case seems to be improved this year. I’m impressed with the better grip, stronger scratch resistance, less sharp bottom lip. We’ll see how well it holds up with fingerprints, but it is now part of my three case rotation.

Are the buttons any better?

Looks like Phone Rebel still has that flip out camera ring in the works with their latest email?

Are the buttons any better (other than the Camera Control, which I have heard works very well)?

Edit: Sorry! Just noticed someone already asked! My bad.

Anyone that has Rebel Flex on their 16? Deciding to buy that one because i like the exposed edges and the fact that you get a vinyl cover for them too. Also, the tempered glass that it comes with, is it any good? Thanks!
 
Ali Express.



There is a lug either side sits under the case that are pushed against the case by the inserted phone.
There are stick on ones with no lugs but not keen on that idea, plus I've only seen those with gold trim so would stick put like a sore thumb.
You have a link for that camera button cover? I can’t seem to find it! Thank you.

Less sharp bottom?

You’ve got me interested
 
My first case for my 16 Pro is the Nomad Modern Leather. It’s very nice, but to be honest I really dislike the ribbed edges around the camera button. That makes it difficult to use that button. I have ordered a Nomad Traditional Leather case that has a cutout around the camera button. I should get it next week.

I also ordered a Spigen Tough Armor T AI case and just received it. Very nice case and the edges have a soft feel and that makes it easy to grip the phone. The button that covers the camera button works like a champ! It even makes it easier to activate the shutter. Spigen did us a solid with this case.

I will post more after I receive the Nomad Traditional Leather case next week.

Nope, but it sure looks interesting. Does it have Magsafe?
Webpage says yes. Also, I asked if the back is a skin or what. They replied “the print is molded into the case. It is an actual protective case, yes.” Of course when asked if they are going to use a button cover the canned reply came. “We tried dozens of covers but nothing satisfied our commitment to quality.”

That all being said, this is still a case I’d be interested in. I hope someone picks one up.

I just don’t have the means to order a bunch of cases even if I return them and keep one heh.
