They are hoping to dump as many of their "Rush to market" cases as possible before introducing the correct case with the CC button.
Got a tip for us?

Ive replied to Lizzy asking that million dollar question. Is Paragon getting that CC button?
Yes.
20% and 15% off
Person who refers get 20% off and 15% off for whoever uses that referral.
Shame they do not stack plus no use to me as referral scheme is for US site only.
Fingers crossed you don't get the boiler-plate response that begins:
"As for the camera control button, we don't currently have any plans to update our iPhone 16 lineup."
We know about the Phone Rebel. Can you name any others or are they highly classified national security secrets?
Yeah it does, but the button will never not be in there so it shouldn’t be a problem, but I am just having a hard time paying 70 bucks AGAIN to get a proper version of a case I have already bought. They should do some sort of discount for people with 16 series Bite edition.
I bet there will be some who will order the new button edition from Amazon, pull the ol’ switcheroo, then return the old bite edition in the new box.
That sounds like a plan, glad I never purchased the bite edition. I'm not even sure if I'll purchase the button edition.
A good ~20% of the “new” cases I ordered from Amazon last year were obviously used or returned as defective. I suspect it’s a pretty widespread thing.

Tineeowl is weird. On their website all they show are iPad cases. Maybe another AliExpress rebrander?Brian showing the Tineeowl over on Tee's discord with the CC button

So we’ve been waiting 3 months for a bunch of cases retrofitted with the AliExpress $.99 button. 😆
I had to post screenshots of my own pictures because the file sizes were too big
This one arrived for me today, in blue. It's very similar to the Meifigno, however, it has the camera lens protectors around the lenses, comes in a bunch of other colors, and offers a slightly better grip around the sides (not the back... same typical frost backing). The sides have a slight bit of texture to them. We all know this is a cookie cutter design...but hey, its something. Hopefully 2025 shows us some better products.

Can you post some pics showing the button including the inside?
