Apple iPhone 16 Pro Max Silicone Case with MagSafe and Camera Control: Lightweight Phone Case, Wireless Charging Compatible, Smooth Matte Finish, Black

I’m a big fan of this case. I purchased it for my iPhone 16 Pro in ultramarine. It feels amazing in your hand. Super soft and comfortable with a good amount of grip. The case itself is gorgeous. Truly catches the eye and compliments the iPhone extremely well. I’ve seen some of the reviews about the lint and that is definitely true but it’s silicon and that is a well known fact about anything silicon. It will always attract dust and lint. If you can’t stand that, then get a different case. My primary reason for getting this case was because I could not stand the cutout in my former case around the camera control part of the phone. It was driving me absolutely nuts to have my hand constantly sliding into the cutout and feeling like there was a literal part of the phone missing. The majority of the time I’m using my phone with one hand and my dominant hand is my right, which is the side the cutout was on, thus, creating this irritating feeling of part of the phone missing constantly. This case has definitely solved that issue and the camera control area of the case works perfectly. Extremely responsive and working exactly as intended by Apple. For me, I’m not overly concerned about the durability of the case as I have heavy duty cases for instance where I know my phone may be at higher risk of taking a tumble but from prior experience with silicon cases on former phones, if you drop it then yes, it will create a noticeable mark but it’s a phone case. It’s intention is to protect your $1000 investment. Not to be indestructible and no silicone case is ever going to do that well if you drop it! I picked this case up for $40. It definitely is justified at that price as it’s more of a luxury case than a everyday use kind of case. $50 is maybe a bit much but if you can get it for $40 or less I’d definitely recommend going for it but be easy on the case. Don’t take it hiking or to a construction site. If it falls in a rugged environment like that, then yes, it absolutely will not hold up well. It’s not supposed to. I’d recommend this case mainly for lowkey daily activities like lounging around the house, taking a casual drive, even just sitting in the office at your desk. I would absolutely not recommend using it to take on the world. It’s lightweight, thin and is not designed for abuse. If you want that level of durability and protection, just get an otter box defender. Not this. I can definitely say that for $40 once this case has run its course, I’ll definitely purchase a new one as it’s perfect for my individual needs and will fill the intended role I bought it for.

I'm a fan of the apple silicone case, I like the touch/feel and the protection works fine for my everyday use. The built in magsafe connection works really well. I bought the same case with my new iphone 16 plus, and after a year of travel and regular use, the case started to show some wear and a few chips, so time to buy a replacement. I don't expect a case to last more than a year, so the product met my expectations.

This case feels premium, sturdy, and smooth — exactly what I expect from Apple’s silicone cases. The fit is perfect, the buttons are responsive, and the MagSafe connection is strong. Not thin or flimsy at all; it actually feels protective while still looking sleek. Very happy with it.

The case is good looking and is still in use on an iPhone 16pro that has had a few drops to ground over the last over many (5) months and the screen and phone are in tact. I took one star off because the case’s outer material has started to wear away almost like it’s degrading from molecular breakdown of the material and suggests to me that the case may only be good for a year or so. I still recommend the case despite the one star removal, but inner aware that this Apple product is not going to last the life of your Apple phone. 2025/08/11 update: 7 months in and the case’s outer material was just flaking off like mad around the corners and edges and the camera protector bezel had popped off the case itself, likely from going into and out of pockets all day long. I reached out to Apple for a warranty claim last week and they sent a replacement over promptly. I have not seen the degradation of a silicone case so quickly before.

I purchased SEVEN different cases before even getting my phone when it was first released, and needless to say my daily driver is the Apple case. The cut-outs are perfect, and it's not thick/chunky around the sizes, which shows off the bezel and extra screen size. Two things I've noticed (both are neutral): The camera control/slide area is finicky, but the implementation of the camera control without a case is the exact same. You can snap a photo no problem, but if you want to use the options Apple advertises, this won't make it better. I didn't want a case that had a cutout area, and I didn't plan on using the slide controls anyway. The second is the case loses its "smoothness" over time. When you take it out of the box it's a bit slick, then after two months (I've had it since release), it has more grip to it. This could be considered a good or bad thing depending on who you are, but I like it because I want to make sure it doesn't like around like a plastic/slick case. This is the only case I've purchased from Apple that I've kept using. The camera control is throwing manufacturers for a loop, but Apple got it right this time.

This is hands-down my favorite phone case. I love the soft, smooth feel in my hands — it never slips, even without a PopSocket or grip. I’ve tried other top brands like Speck, but I always come back to this one. Yes, it can break down a bit if dropped hard, but honestly, that’s part of the design — it absorbs the impact so your phone doesn’t take the hit. It’s sleek, reliable, lightweight, and just feels premium. Highly recommend! Who cares about color. I buy whichever fits (they are perfect) my current iPhone model and whichever color is the cheapest. Function is very important to me. Oh and yes you can use the mag charger with this.

Fits great and dropped a few times and durable for 13-year-old boy.

This case did not even last me a year—one drop from about 3 feet and the edge of the case had an unsightly chunk missing from the edge. Who knew silicone could “chip”?! (The phone appears undamaged, so I guess it “worked” in that sense.) I love the feel of the material and the color but durability is a D- grade at best which is why this received only 3-stars; I have had other cases that lasted several years and not shown that kind of wear and they cost less too. If not for the durability problem this would get 5-stars due to it being sufficiently grippy, easy to put on/take off/clean, the fit and buttons are perfect, and the covered camera control button does not diminish its functionality at all. Protection seems adequate although it could probably be slightly improved upon. At this price point though the product needs to be able to withstand a few bumps without the material disintegrating.
