Thanks, this is exactly the info I was looking for. Definitely don't want a case that just has a big cut out for the camera control.
Glad it was helpful!
Why? I’m not trying to troll. I’m genuinely curious why so many people are against the cutout.
@@codylutes9655 multiple reasons
The main reason for a phone case is to protect your phone. A cutout doesn’t protect your phone.
It’s also ugly and doesn’t feel good when holding. (I have one with a cutout and am planning to switch asap)
@@codylutes9655 I think my oppositions would be 1) Those case edges will start to peel up after a while, and 2) The edge of the device seems more exposed/prone to getting damaged which could actually crack the screen if hit right.
@@codylutes9655I’m not totally against a cutout at this point. It has to be done well. I have a lot more cases collected now and with some (like Mujjo leather) it can be pretty difficult to press the button.
Be careful when buying the Spiegen. They also offer a case with the cutout instead of button. Make sure it has the “T” in the name.
100%, especially since the Ultra Hybrid has like 8+ different variations 😊
yeah i got one without the button and it has the cut out. mad i did that. might return it since i got it on amazon
Will they yellow after few months? Seems that sides are silicone
@@FuturePortal911no spigen doesn’t yellow
Those gases are very nice and modern, but I would like to see a brown one.
True? I feel that it is a color that is becoming out of fashion and therefore out of the market.
I think I recently saw some that I think were the Vionentus Elite cases that have that color available.
There's already brown gas - farts
Not into gases.
Spigen never fails to make a good phone case, dont know how they do it, but their cases are just always good.
Omg thanks for making video less than 10 minutes, not money hungry unlike other RUclipsrs, and making it concise
I have the Unicorn Beetle Mag on my 16 Pro Max, in clear, and my goodness... it's exceptional. Their approach to the sapphire layer interaction is actually quite nice.
at least for the first month...
the silikon case from iphone changed, its literally perfect. its coated so it doesnt stick with the dirt, you can just to blow it away
Yeah but it doesn’t last over a year.
@@supreme5998 i rather pay every year for a case than apple pay or an ugly big case, transparent cases dont even last 6 months
The leather cases were way better.
@@supreme5998 u can replace them under warranty no?
@@ishan9661 not for wear and tear. The case durability is just not good
Nice to see there are options that have a capacitive button and a lanyard anchor. Hoping that more show up.
@@deanbaird the lanyard anchor on the unicorn beetle is on the left (volume side). Spigen’s is on the right. I may get the spigen one too just to test it, but I’m really happy with the unicorn beetle case. I use the lanyard anchor with a lanyard connected to a mag grip/stand, detachable from the string with a clip. This is the best solution I’ve found for having a grip and not losing it.
I have been searching for 2 hours trying to decided on a case for our new 16 pro / pro max and your video answered all of my questions. Thank you so much!
Glad this was helpful 😊
Did you buy the Spigen case? I'm unsure which one to choose between the Spigen and the Apple case, as I've seen in several reviews that Spigen cases tend to yellow after a few months. Could you share more about your experience with it?
Honestly I’ve been using a case with a cutout and it’s nowhere near as bad as I first expected. The cutout is where my thumb naturally rests so it adds less bulk when I’m using one hand
I’m using ESR’s clear case with a punch out for the camera control, and I’ve found it’s great for added grip when holding the phone one handed. Gives a nice groove for my thumb to rest
I’m on the opposite end. The cutout digs into my finger before it makes contact. I have to press obscenely hard or perfectly straight just to register a click.
I’m gonna shave the bevel and wait until the case manufacturers make one with a stand + camera button.
If you don’t mind the cutout cases I am using the clear MagSafe from caseology and the cutout and materials are perfect. On top of that the little bumps on the sides of it give it a good grip. I find a lot of cutout cases unless the my use slick materials like the clear case tend to be almost to sticky to use the button easily. Torras with replaceable buttons might be my second favourite.
Yaaaaas!!! I hate the cutout. A button no one asked for. I bought three cases trying to find something that feels right in my hands.
What did you end up loving the most?
I tried both types of cases including the apple official cases and the cutout is SO MUCH BETTER! You can find it easily with your hand without looking and its much smoother and responsive. I hated the beats case the most.
I have the OtterBox Lumen on my 16 Pro since Friday, no scratches so far. Looks great in black on white. I like it. 😊
I have it as well for my 16 PM with no issues. I got the green one so it has a sort of glow effect when light reflects off the magsafe, and I think the natural titanium goes perfect with it!
Same! I got the pink one which goes great with the white 16 Pro. I really like it so far, so I didn’t exactly agree with the review in this case 😅
Honestly, I think it’s actually the best one in this list, at least on paper.
- It has coloured borders which helps to reduce yellowing there
- It has the capacitive camera button
- It doesn’t have the bottom of the phone exposed like the official Apple case
- Edit: I did some research, and apparently what causes yellowing in clear cases is TPU materials. However, I filtered the cases on the Apple website by hard plastic, and the only one I found was the lumen, meaning that this case shouldn’t yellow (at least as fast) either
@@johnknoop42 Do you think it would go well with the teal colour on the non-pros? I think it would look really nice and unique, but I haven’t seen the case in person.
Also, what does the MagSafe strip look like outside in the light, and when it’s darker? Thank you.
I returned my otter box clear case. The camera bump was loose. Saw it on display cases too. So pretty bad quality. It would also squeak
I ordered my unicorn beetle case after I preordered my 16PM. Been a really great case so far. The capacitive touch works well and I’m glad that button is protected.
Great video, but I am still unsure as to what case to get for my iphone 16 pro. I’m mostly concerned with safety over looks. Something that will protect the screen from cracking when dropped. What is the sturdiest in your opinion
@@kimschade1656 Right now for outright protection I would say Phone Rebel Gen 6 or Mous Limitless. There should be an updated case with camera control coming from Phone Rebel over the next month or two, and I’ve seen rumours about an update to the Mous case floating around the internet so if those appeal to you it might be worth waiting for. Hope that helps!
Why doesnt spigen make the ultra hybrid t for the standard iPhone 16? So frustrating
Apple: *uses sapphire crystal so that your camera button won’t have a huge unsightly cutout*
Also Apple: *puts a huge unsightly cutout at the bottom of the case*
That bottom cutout on Apple and beats exposing the speaker and usb c is horrendous you’d think after 17 years they would change it 🫢
@@MoNeYMlKE420not to mention the mute switch in previous years.
I prefer cases with the cutout at the bottom because they make swiping up easier. Otherwise, you catch the lip of the case.
@@JanGoh-jb5ge I know what you mean, but honestly, you don’t really register it after a while, and it definitely beats any potential damage to the bottom of the phone.
@@KO_Manic Sure, I'm just arguing that the cutout isn't SO unsightly and that it actually serves a function. I prefer that case design myself, having used both.
Big thanks so far. You’re the first shown working phone in the supcase.❤
If the unicorn was opaque, they’d already have my money
Thanks for your video!
You’re welcome 😊
Came to see if I missed any cases in my searching on Amazon, but it look like I’ve seen them all this far. Thanks for the quick tests with each one though!
Had the Spigen been in stock in the UK I would have bought this for launch day but I ended up falling back to he ESR clear case with camera guard stand which features a cut out for the camera control. I am hoping ESR bring out a case like the spigen as I am finding the stand really handy.
So basically something like the Spigen “Tough Armor T AI (MagFit + Camera Control)”? It has both the button and a stand
That supcase is exactly what I’ve been looking for a unique design and nice buttons also love the textured camera control button.
@@Jorda5s glad this was helpful!
Same! They also have one that features a stand! Best bang for your buck case out there
I have the yellow silicone case since they’ve been made. I’ve never had a lint issue with it. It stays clean color stays and I love the way camera button works.
The apple offical case just did it perfectly, ngl I never wanted to spend heaps on an official case but these new ones are just too good😊
Great video! Searched for "iPhone cases with camera button" and this was the first result!
@@beardfm Thank you, Stephen! 😊
Never heard of Supcase but those flat edges look so nice. I alway buy spigen but the Ultra Hybrid yellows after 3 months :(
i use supercase and its is good for camera button control
@@santokdoes it scratch the button?
@@timothylim6952 nop for now,its doing good,alot of variant u can choose that have camera control button from supcase
Crazy how companies wanna charge $50 for a piece of plastic that cost them $1 to make
It‘s a bit more than $1
@@KwaPaN3Reven if it cost them $5 to make the margins are absolutely insane. No case is worth $50
Screenor makes pretty nice cases you should test them out
Looking at cases, I had this question about the button!! I’m so glad you addressed it. Imo, you should add the word capacitive to the title. The only reason I clicked the video is because the AI summary mentioned it.
Great suggestion!
I hope Spigen puts the camera control button on their other cases!
likewise
Same, that would be a smart move on their part!
The case with camera buttons is going to scratch ur actual buttons like crazy!!!
I haven’t had any issues like that 🤷🏻♂️
I bought the SUPCASE for higher protection rating, I’m going from a regular 13 pro to 16 pro max and I have small hands so it was a must at $15 on sale.
Clear cases look and feel great, but the only downside is them turning yellow in no time. Not one brand has mastered a perfect clear case that doesn't yellow over time. Here's to hoping someone does. Regardless, great video, Jay!
Caudabe is the only phone clear case that doesn’t turn yellow over time
Honestly I just dislike how fingerprinty and oily they look over time. I have the suppose but it’s already coated it fingerprints
I’ve used a Rhinoshield clear case on my 13 Pro for about as long as it’s been out, and it hasn’t yellowed! Just dents and dings from some falls (depending on how bad they are🥴). 😅
I have a Speck clear case and mine has not yellowed. On a iPhone 12 Pro.
The apple clear cases don't yellow from my experience because they're made of polycarbonate, not TPU
Excellent audio for the cases being installed. Such a nice touch! Great review.
@@dayvan801 thank you 🙌
can you show some cases that are closes up any holes on the phone, for when you work at a job that has a lot of particles, and you wanna protect the iphone from it?
I’ll add it to my list of content to create!
@@jaydanielstech i appreciate it very much! Thank you 🙏🏽🙏🏽
The Spiegen Ultra Hybrid T is, in my opinion, the best 3rd party case with the camera control button cover. I have the frosted black and the cover is black.
An opinion I can get behind! I ended up with the same case (frosted black as well). Big fan of it!
Gotta be careful with these cases. For whatever reason i ordered the spigen ultra hybrid T and it has no camera control capacitive button there's jsut a giant cutout. I could return via amazon but i dont know if im going to get a cutout again or the capacitive button. Guess they made the change after i've already purchased it
Sounds like a mistake, I’d return and order again 😊👍
Amazon's fault. If you are at the hybrid T page and change color you get the non-T version.
The Apple clear case scratches easily on the raised edges. I swapped mine for the Apple black plastic one.
Also the otterbox is insanely slippery I’ve dropped my phone so much now. I got it and I’ve had to the sides and edges with a knife just to give it grip.
That case would drive me insane. Not because it's slippery, but the charging port hole.
Thanks, just wondering on the spigen case are the other buttons completely covered by the case or is part of them exposed ?
@@conorfitzharris6075 part of them is exposed
Any cases with a kickstand too for a Pro Max?
I was literally thinking of this exact kind of video today and this pops up I love this
Thanks nice vid exactly what I was looking for..I can’t find it for the pro max .. haven’t they made one?
@@samdeur which one?
@@jaydanielstech the spigen ultra hybrid T .. went to the spigen store front a amazon nl that’s the Netherlands. Also went on spigen Europe site seems to be in Poland but that was a bigger challenge there they mentioned the awesome case having a button but I couldn’t even find it only adds about it on their own site 🤪
Thanks for demonstrating Subcase's capture control is functioning
No worries!
Been waiting since Friday for this thank you so much. Glad I went with the supcase
thank you for mentioning the unicorn beetle. I was just looking at it on amazon and was worried that whilst they claim camera control functionality, how well it would really work is in doubt. but thank you!
What about drop protection on these??
where did u come up with that Spigen for $25? that hybrid T is $55 on their official website + $19 shipping to Europe.
So from your "$25" lands at $75. a huge difference. asking that much money for a cheap plastic shell is outrageous lol
@@jockerer9694 I’m using USD prices from Amazon (which is where I linked in the description). The price can sometimes change on Amazon, so it might change after the video was made.
I agree, $75 would be too much for a phone case.
i love my unicorn beetle for my 15 pro max, my only complaint is that they have the magsafe ring paint on the outside of the case which make it wear off and look like crap. Other cases like my Spigen have it panted on the inside so it doesnt wear off. Did they fix it on this new model?
I had a Spigen clear case and so did my wife. They both yellowed in a short space of time which was disappointing. Our Apple clear cases have lasted for about 2.5 years now and have stood the test of time very well. They’re almost nearly 100% clear still.
Lifesaver video. I like my silicone case fine but I know that they aren't very durable from experience. Excited to look into some of these other options.
@@sarahparrish7206 Glad this was helpful! I also posted an updated silicone case video, a “just shy of two weeks” update 😊
@@jaydanielstech Just took a watch! I agree with a lot of what you said. I upgraded from a 12PM with an old leather case and while I love the tech upgrade I sorely miss the hand feel from the leather. Was looking into some 3rd party leather cases and unfortunately none of them seem to have camera buttons, so I'm holding out for that i suppose.
Exactly the video I was hoping for
Thank you for this video. I didn’t know spigen or anyone outside of Apple for that matter, even had built in button case.
Glad it was helpful 👍
You didn't cover the SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Grip, which is what I went with. It's much heavier duty than the other SUPCASE case you showed. It also has a USB-C port cover and a kickstand.
Thanks for pointing that out, just seeing that case now. I’ll plan for an updated video after a few months once more companies pivot to add a camera control button 👍
The Spigen case is definitely in first place for what im looking to buy.
But my dream spec would be their case but have all the buttons in white matching the white camera control. Also the MagSafe array in white and then hell while we’re at it the camera bump, and the lanyard hole.
Maybe the non capacitive buttons could have nice inlays with a harder material.
It's interesting the UB case worked for you. A lot of the reviews are saying scrolling with the camera control button doesn't work.
That is interesting. It doesn’t work as well as the rest of the cases in the video, which I mentioned, but still definitely worked. Maybe that case could benefit from the user changing the sensitivity setting for the Camera Control to higher. 🤷🏻♂️
@@jaydanielstechu can change the sensitivity?
Thanks! I don’t understand why other reviewers didn’t focus on this…. I didn’t buy own yet since I want to know how a non apple case would work
The lack of cutout coverage is blown out of proportion. Most cut out cases have a good indentation that protects the button from scratches and you end up missing out on a lot of great cases over a mostly paranoid fear of scratching a button on a deep groove case.
Spigen also has one more case with the button, it looks to be more rugged and protective, and comes with a built in stand.
“Tough Armor T AI (MagFit + Camera Control)”
I hope all the other big brands come out with cases that have the button. Though that probably won’t be until the iPhone 17 or 18 releases, just like what happened when MagSafe was introduced with the 12’s.
Currently using the Supcase with the Spigen on the way early next month! I appreciate your review and confirming my choices!
@@BMDakota_ thank you!
How does the camera button function?
@@ross8723 they both function in a similar way. The methods used to accomplish that is just different. I biggest difference in terms of holding the phone is the Supcase Camera Control stick out of the side of the case like the other buttons, whereas the Spigen case is more flush to the phone.
Got a sup case in clear glitter styling. Looks great and doesn’t cost a lot 😋
Thans for the video.. Spigen is the best of the bunch, had 3 or 4 of their Ultra Hybrid cases and it’s definitely best clear case out there.. but the YELLOWING man.. the material feels nice to the touch but it is always noticable after 2-3 months, yeah old case look disgusting
Putting off/on giving pressure on the phone, did it damage the skin or the screen of the 16?
Hi there, happy to answer. Are you asking if I damaged the phone screen or phone body finish by removing the cases? Let me know!
@@jaydanielstech thanks for replying. Yes both in fact. My phone case felt pretty tight but sturdy. However my attempt in removing and putting it on felt like I’m risking damaging the colour and the button.
Hey what screen protector did you use with your 16 pro?
@@williamvt1 just added the link to the description 👍
I got the Unicorn Beetle SupCase from Amazon for my 16 Pro Max. No complaints from me so far.
@@Jus_Bernard good to hear 👍
Hoco clear case is the best, it's so slim, light, and cheap. Currently, I use smoke clear case with ultramarine iPhone 16.
Cool, does it have a button or a cutout?
beats - cheap and fingerprint magnet. What were they thinking?
Always loved supcase! I got mine’s yesterday and it’s very cool, as always
Receive supcase but haven’t tried it with phone yet. Top or outside button smooth but the inside you can feel the pin . Any thoughts of it maybe scratching or leaving scuff mark on the actual button? Thanks
Inside the button that touches the phone is smooth, the outside where your finger touches has texture. Don’t think it’ll damage your phone. 👍
@@jaydanielstech I feel like the other way top is more smooth and the inside pin texture
Which one u recommend more spigen or supcase?
I have the Supcase. theoretically, it shouldn't scratch. the Camera Control button is sapphire crystal and the tiny rods on the case are copper. copper isn't very hard on the Mohs scale and the crystal is quite tough. but are you willing to take the chance? ;)
I bought the Spigen Ultra Hybrid T but I have a problem with my wireless charger - when I have the case on it does not charge properly. The charger is a 3in1 Anker MagGo. I previously had an iPhone 13 pro with a Spigen MagSafe case and it worked flawlessly with the charger, but the combination of this case and 16 pro does not work. So it leads me to the conclusion it's the case fault, because if I take it off it charges just fine. Did you try it with different wireless chargers?
I’ve tried with multiple and it works fine. I do have one wireless MagSafe charger from Anker that only works half the time, but I haven’t used it for a couple of years.
Disappointing the apple cases have huge bottom cutout. Cheap. And Otter box, usually known for high quality! I like Spigen do you know if the clear is non yellowing?
From what I’ve seen in the comments the Spigen may yellow, though Spigen claims it won’t now. So time will tell 🤷🏻♂️
I had the Spigen on my 14Pro and the sides yellowed. So this time I got the Otterbox for my 16. I like that the buttons aren’t cutout, esp the camera one. Also bottom is covered too, unlike the iPhone case. So far no scratches.
does the 16 pro really have a better battery life than 15 pro
doesnt flo lab have one too though...
Just with a cut out.
Hi! What is the screen protector you are using? I have purchased Ultra Hybrid in the past for other iPhones and they always do not fit with other brands of screen protector (push the edges and create white bubbles). Do you have any issues?
I almost always buy the Spigen 2 pack of screen protectors, haven’t had issues with cases
@@jaydanielstech yeah, it should not be any problem with the Spigen one, I got the problem with other screen protectors. Thank you anyways!
Supcase is good im using it
My top 3 are Spigen, Supcase and the original apple case. However, the spigen started to yellow within 2 weeks of use and the apple case is just a dust magnet.
Great video I hate those cut out cases for the camera button.
Short and informative, great video.
I’ve been wondering why no one’s made this video. And there you did finally. Sub’d!
@@AbdulBaiss 😊
I bought an official apple clear case for my 14 pro max and I’ll never get that one again. It was INCREDIBLY slippery. I dropped my phone because of that case every single day. I’m using a Raptic on my 16 pro max and it’s the best one I’ve used so far
Hello! Nice video! I would love your opinion on Torras Diamond-Mag - Transparent case.
Is the Spigen T one a pinky destroyer?
My pinky has not yet been destroyed 😊
Got the Summit Stone beats case, it’s solid. Didn’t think I would like it but it feels good in the hand, and really feels like the apple clear case from my 13 pro.
Thanks for your review! Really helpful.
the apple clear case has too stiff of buttons to be liked. the apple silicon case has a major flaw with the lip pealing off after months and when you drop your phone face down the lip doesn't take the damage, instead your phone screen does because the lip gets pushed back because the case slides off the phone easily. beats looks like the better case of the two but only time can tell.
I think you get other Spigen cases in your country, because in mine every Ultra Hybrid has a cut-out for the camera control 😢
Only Ultra Hybrid T has a button. Non T version has cut out.
@@Daniel-688 and amazon makes it hard to choose a color and keep the 'T'
Loved this video but why didn’t you include a stand case
@@JGoh762 at the time this video was made there was no case with a stand that also has a camera control button. I’ll be doing another video like this in the future when I’ve found another 5+ cases with the button. 👍
You would go for the most slippery case after all of that?
The Beats case is the most slippery of all in this video. The back of the Spigen is slippery, but the edges of the case are more rubbery feeling and have decent grip.
I’ve used the 16 pro max for a week with apple silicon case and the button of the case scratched the “sapphire” button of the phone
Wowwww…
Great video. I ended up going with the Spigen as well
Could I get case that covers the button entirely I don't use that button and disabled it.
@@25mL 😅 your best bet is a case with the button so it doesn’t feel weird to hold.
great video - excatly what I wanted to see
Is any case not compatible with a screen protector?
All of these work with a screen protector. I have a Spigen one installed.
So helpful! Great video dude
@@davey_gravy Thank you 🙏
also with the beats case -- its SUPER slippery and gets so greasy so quick. I never feel like I have a good grip on my phone and I'm ready to return it after 6 days
@@brenben10 Can confirm, that’s very accurate. I have that issue with any sort of hard plastic back case.
I use my iPhone with a Dbrand skin and no case. In my opinion, modern iPhones are strong enough to withstand most drops. Hell, it’s even been dropped 3 feet onto concrete and been fine. No back glass or display damage.
I bought the clear MagSafe case and I would like to add some review to it here. Overall I think it's a good case, but if you're planning on getting it, do know that the buttons are fairly spongey and theres no lip on the bottom on the phone, so the bottom edge of the screen is exposed. Personally these aren't issues, but if you're a little clumsier then that protection might be needed.
@@alecstronach Very accurate. The buttons are very surprising to me, especially since Apple has better buttons on every other case they’ve made.
W video. Definetly considering the supcase.
Superb! Really thankful for the video 😀
_Only if Spigen sold that case in my region 🤣_
My 16 Pro arrives soon and I need something fast, so I guess I'm out of luck for now 🥲
What's even weird is that, the case I have ordered before watching this video is actually a Spigen Ultra Hybrid Magfit.
I was so excited as if I've made the right choice _unknowingly_ lmao, only to see it's the *non-"T" version,* and yep, there's a "cutout" instead of a capacitive button on the side...
I guess we'll have to wait it out for more and better-suited accessories in the future, like MagSafe combo chargers and so on, along with a new case 🙂
Is the Spigen only for Pro models?
Yes. Hopefully they bring this to non-pro cases in the future.
