I never thought I’d watch a phone case review for 11+ minutes. But here I am, your video is awesome. I got all the information I needed for this case. Thank you!
The Camera Control has turned the case market upside down. Prior to this year, if someone told me the Apple Silicone and Spigen Ultra Hybrid (T) were the top picks I’d be incredulous, but here we are. I bought the Silicone in both Black and Stone Gray and I’m pleasantly surprised; the case is definitely improved over years past. Hopefully the major third-party manufacturers get their stuff together and release updated cases with Camera Control buttons in place of cutouts to compete with Apple and Spigen.
I’ve sent my 16 pro back because of the camera button, the cases are absolutely awful, I can’t use silicone because I work in a carpentry shop and dust is a nightmare on the case, the hole cut out and n cases have ruined the phone for me, sounds silly but I’m sticking with my 15 pro
@@MVS_DJGillyGill I know it sounds silly but I hated the hole cut out lol, u can’t operate the button as well, most will be fine but my ocd wasn’t happy 😂
I’ve always used the yellow silicone case since they’ve came out each year. Had issues with them getting dirty or just color changing. Since 14 pro max case haven’t had this issue. For the 16 pro max it’s been great. Love the camera button instead of a cutout. Very happy with this case.
I just got this case in ultramarine blue and I absolutely love it. That camera button really makes it. No more wrestling getting my finger in there trying to maneuver the button. It also has a soft feel to it without being too grippy.
Exceptional review! Especially liked the caliper measurement for edge of case. That sold me on this case! I just bought the 16 Pro Max and was looking for a nice case. Keep up the great work!!
I’m using the black on black. It’s gorgeous this year. Even the build quality is far better than last year without a molding line on the sides. I also have the feeling it collects less lint as the cases did before. The price talks I still don’t understand. If you look for branded alternatives, the difference is maybe 10% on top. But for this Apple Tax you can be sure it fits and works perfectly. And 35 grams are a real number when it comes to cases - especially when you are using the 16 PM! BTW I’m using Apple silicone/leather/finewoven cases since the iPhone 6. None of my silicone cases peeled off at corners. None of them broke or got scratched.
Oh this is interesting how long do u change phones or basically how long u use silicone case cuz I've heard they last prob a year or so... If what u say is true I'm gonna buy it no questions asked
@@ishan9661 as a matter of course it isn’t lint free., it still collects some. But for me personally the best choice when it comes to design, weight & fit. I’m using the cases for one year and I never had issues with the cases.
@@ishan9661I’ve used them in the past and they’re really bad and look gross after way less than a year. If you never drop your phone the way it will still look gross is by looking very oily after like 3 months, then if you take it on and off a lot the corners start to wear and break and if you drop your phone they will scuff. I’m not even hating those are just the facts. They should be $20 at most.
I have this case, but hate when I get oils and grease from food on it. I wish they still made their leather case. I’m hoping a good leather case comes out with the camera control button.
I got this for my 16 Plus and it’s great. I usually go for 3rd-party cases, but seeing they have a cutout rather than a proper button was the reason I went with Apple’s case.
Black on black for me. Looks great. It’s easily the nicest silicone case I’ve had for any iPhone prior. It’s a different texture. Still grippy but definitely doesn’t pick up “shit” for the lack of a better term like most would. Animal hair has always been a problem for me there lol
I have the Lake Green case for the 16 Pro. It’s really more of a teal color and is pleasing. The fit, finish and button function is excellent. Lint and pet hair collection is only slight. Unfortunately the grippiness is not as good as the Apple leather cases I’ve always used in the past. I miss those and will be keeping my eye out for a good third party solution.
I have a question I’m considering buying this case but I just wanna make it does protect my phone just like every other case I’ve gotten like camera and dent protection etc.
This will be my first iPhone ever so I wanna ask iv heard apple silicon cases last a very short while before they start pealing off so can we claim warranty for that? Or they don't allow it
If the case starts peeling, Apple will usually replace it for the first 12 months, with no issue. I've had peeling issues before that came after I dropped the phone and they replaced it for me with a brand new one. They're pretty gracious with their return policy. I've gotten replacements for 2 or 3 cases over the years due to similar issues, they've got great Customer Service.
@@Mr_Dusty It's the peeling issue that bothers me. Silicone cases are supposed to be more "environmentally friendly" than the now discontinued leather cases, but it's hardly sustainable if you need to replace them every year. I've never had any issues with any leather cases. Went three years with an Apple leather case for the 12 pro max and no peeling. My wife just replaced her silicone case for her 13 mini after under 2 years of use because all the edges were peeling off. Luckily we found a like-new Apple leather case for it :)
The price is reasonable for the quality. Plus it's easy to find it cheaper. I returned two Nomad cases which were my previous favorites because the camera control button isn't good. I bought the stone gray for my natural titanium 16 Max.
I bought the third party clear case with capsules cut out but after six days later I went to Apple Store and get myself the silicon case, the camera control works like a charm on the Apple silicon cases, I get the green colour
I have a torras metal magsafe grip to go with my silicone case, highly recommend it so you can use camera control while holding the phone with one hand
I’ve been using the cellhelmet case for mine, I used it on the 13 pro max too. It has decent grip but has the best fit out of any case on the market, plus looks pretty clean too. Strong MagSafe too
hello, is the silicone's texture similar or close to the spigen thin fit? I'm on the fence on buying this as i want a thinner case. I do like the spigen thin fit and is po ket friendly. if this has more improvement then I'll buy one. thank you
Can’t say magnet strength compared to last year’s but they’re decent. I rock the Apple wallet with confidence. As for chipping I mean it’s silicone.. drops will show especially on concrete. But if you’re careful with your stuff this case will look cleann 🔥
This is the only case I trusted to fit all the buttons and openings. (Won’t be using the camera button, it’s fussy and unnecessary; I hear it will be convertible). Case works great. Never had silicone before so didn’t think the non-slip grip would be so useful. It is. My wife loves her Blue 16 so she got the clear case, likes it, but slides all over the place, right off the dash. Good thing hers is replaceable in a year.
Mine will be in tomorrow !!! Just got my 16 pro max natural in yesterday! Upgraded from the 14 pro. Max and I can. Definently tell a big difference in the screen size and processing speeds!
Have tested a lot of cases (Pitaka, Torras, Moft, Mous, ...) , but the Apple Silicone case is the winner. All other cases feels wrong with the cut out for the camera button.
I have the same colour on my 15PM, I really like everything about the case, except for one. It attracts so much lint. Is that still the case on this new one?
BTW I think it’s the first Apple silicone case with buttons in case color, which looks much cleaner. Years before the buttons had the Apple logo color.
I bought 2 different cases, didn’t feel right, didn’t end up liking them and it’s so weird cuz the cases were nice, a leather one and a soft shell, But the apple silicone official for my iPhone 16 pro max is the way to go, case feels the best, camera control with sapphire is fancy, and works better than cut outs or notches to me somehow, and idk for the price the fact there’s sapphire in the darn case is great for my copium 🤷♂️
One thing I can say about the 15PM. It doesn’t take chair level drops to concrete very well. Completely busted the case, I know that’s what it’s for. Just know it could be a one and done from anything above 3 feet depending on surface and drop type.
I was bike riding the other day and my phone fell out of my pocket, going really fast and my Apple Silicon case definitely saved my phone with only a minor chip off the case I got the aquamarine blue black and green this year
@@Pstmstr Good to hear as there don't seem to be any great alternatives in the meantime. Another reviewer said that after a couple weeks the silicone case was a lot more grippy and started being difficult to get in and out of pockets - have you had yours for a few weeks and it's still good? At this point I'm just thinking I'll get a silicone case when I get my iPhone mid-November and then wait until one of the leather case manufacturers come out with a case that had a capacitive button for the camera control.
How’s the dust collection for the case? Previously I used apple’s black silicone case for my 13 pro max and the dusts that sticked to the case is horrendous. So difficult to wipe it off too…
I got this same case from apple for my 16 pro max. the speaker holes don't line up? but the mic holes do. haha first apple case I've got already bad experience. the corner came with a small tare too. =/
I have this case on the same phone you do; the case slowly slides out of my hand, and I’m getting a Spigen Amour Case, I forget the model, it is best for protection, as it has something on the sides other than slippery silicone, not a good choice unless you put a death grip on the case then you can’t use it very well.
I have the iPhone 16 Pro Max and I have a Samsung 45 W charger. Can I use the USB-C braided cable that came with the iPhone on a 45 W charger from Samsung to get them 45 W speeds or will I need a different USB-C cable
It's a pretty decent screen protector. I do like other ones more though. I'd rather use Flolab, Benks, or Spigen. Not a huge fan of the casetify logo on the corners.
Love the grip and overall coverage of this case. However, the bottom corner of the phone continues to pop out. I'm constantly making sure the bottom edges are securely in place. I understand there is no real snap when applying the case unfortunately. Anybody else having these issues? Any tips to resolve this issue? Occurs mainly when removing from my pocket. I just hate to be obsessed over checking the bottom corners every time I use my phone.
The 14 Pro Max version was a finger print smudge magnet so I hope that was addressed. Also they really can't handle any drop higher than 3 feet without breaking or even slipping off of the phone. For $50 it should be one of the best silicone cases out but it's not.
Of course, not. Calling this thing a dust magnet would be a huge understatement. Absolutely minimal drop protection. Will wear and tear at supersonic speeds.
Beautiful case ❤ Are you using a casetify glass protector? They put their branding even on glass protectors???? So you have to look at this every time you use your phone? Appalling. 😮
I have the same combo u showed natural titanium pm n stone grey silicone case. Main reason bought silicone as i usually buy Mujjo leather cases but they have open capture button as other leather case companies seem to. Hope that changes.
I have the same case, only in denim color it clicks in the lower right corner, just below the camera button. Does anyone else have this problem? Or is my case defective?
Wild. 2024, and we still have people going on a phone case video and talking trash for no reason because they have nothing better to do. Thanks for the engagement though 😂😂
@@Brians_tech Allright, i hope not. The only way to truly find out how it feels and looks (and smells maybe) is to buy it yourself. But the cases are a bit on the expensive side to try them all. I have the desert titanium iPhone 16 Pro Max, so it's also nice if it stays visible. I do like that blue color the most this year, but they didn't bring it to the Pro mode. So i most likely also order that silicon case as well.
@@geep8591 Yeah, i can confirm. As said above i received mine yesterday. The cut out at the bottom is a shame, and if your hands are moist / sweaty it's slippery. But on the positive side i can enjoy my Desert Titanium look. With a silicon case that's hidden. But ehh i will try it for a couple of days and see how it goes. Am going to order a silicon one as well anyways.
Thank you for this upload. Since my old iPhone 12, I’ve preferred and trusted the Apple clear silicone case. I'm using that type on my new and much-loved 16PM. Maybe I’ll have a backup silicone case🤔🤭. The quality seems much improved since the old 8 Plus days😒…hopefully.
This is my first time purchasing an Apple case, and I’m 100% satisfied. (Feels great in the hands.) Well worth the premium cost ($77 AU)! Stone grey looks amazing with natural titanium! Supcase Unicorn Beetle also makes a great inexpensive case with an enclosed camera button feature.
i swear 95% of the youtubers covering the 16 got the 16 pro max and not the regular 16. #makeiphonessmallagain 😢i held a iphone 5s the other day and was in awe i reslly miss those days heavily
now the iphones are so oversized cuz everyone was a mirrorless camera and a fuckin portable charger sized battery in they phone and the need the screen to be as big as the one in they living room 😂😂😂why not just get an LTE ipad at that point
It feels great but it’s not a great case. Try dropping your phone face down and watch your screen take the impact because the silicone lip slides right off and starts to peel after a month making the case look bad on top of adding no front protection.
The problem with this silicone case is that it isn’t durable. It chips off and the material almost definitely will peel off after 6 months of use. Even apple related subReddits complain about how surprisingly bad it is. It’s actually crazy apple is charging 50 dollars (actually more like 60,70 dollars in other countries) for a case that can’t take more than 2 drops.
I never thought I’d watch a phone case review for 11+ minutes. But here I am, your video is awesome. I got all the information I needed for this case. Thank you!

Stone gray
I prefer the Apple silicone over the beats case
@@Brians_tech thanks
I love this color so much I got the case before my phone came 😂 . The silicone feels more premium than ever ,it’s hard to explain
Same feeling on my side. Apple changed the silicone or added a coating. Less lint and no visible shiny grease came up after 6 days of use.
I only have one issue with silicone cases. Does this case collect dust?
A bit, but it’s not terrible
Got this case in the ultramarine blue for my white titanium 16 pro max and it’s great! 🔥

Do fingerprints show on the back of the case?
not really
The camera button works well and will work better than others because is sapphire.
i kinds like the button cut out for the camera button it makes the phones feel thinner
Def gonna be the best year for OEM iPhone cases. Apple knew what they were doing 😂
Have tested a lot of cases (Pitaka, Torras, Moft, Mous, ...) , but the Apple Silicone case is the winner. All other cases feels wrong with the cut out for the camera button.

Is it still difficult to get the phone out of your pocket ? Normally the silicone cases get stuck to much in your pocket
Not really
Agreed! We want camera control covers!!!!!!!!!
Have the same combo. However I have noticed a ring around the Apple logo from using the MagSafe charger. It looks terrible. Is this normal?
After a long while of use, yes. It’s silicone so it’s a soft material.
@@Brians_tech I’ve only owned it since Friday. The ring appeared after day 1 of use. Lol
I bought 2 different cases, didn’t feel right, didn’t end up liking them and it’s so weird cuz the cases were nice, a leather one and a soft shell,
But the apple silicone official for my iPhone 16 pro max is the way to go, case feels the best, camera control with sapphire is fancy, and works better than cut outs or notches to me somehow, and idk for the price the fact there’s sapphire in the darn case is great for my copium 🤷♂️

Other than the camera control button, why do you think it's "much better"? Is the outer material different somehow?
It doesn't pull out all the lint from your pocket, fits on the phone better too.

While I agree it’s one of the best cases in terms of feel and quality, I think it would still be a heavy dust and lint magnet.
This year it’s actually not. I tried it out a lot in my pocket and other places and it didn’t really pull any lint out.
I have the iPhone 16 Pro Max and I have a Samsung 45 W charger. Can I use the USB-C braided cable that came with the iPhone on a 45 W charger from Samsung to get them 45 W speeds or will I need a different USB-C cable
that should be fine 👍
Nice combo what do you think of the casetify protector I see your rocking it 😊
It's a pretty decent screen protector. I do like other ones more though. I'd rather use Flolab, Benks, or Spigen. Not a huge fan of the casetify logo on the corners.
Love the grip and overall coverage of this case. However, the bottom corner of the phone continues to pop out. I'm constantly making sure the bottom edges are securely in place.

I just hate to be obsessed over checking the bottom corners every time I use my phone.
You might have a defective unit. That doesn't happen to me with this case.
I wish they made a case that matches the desert colour /:
The burgundy one looks good on my gfs desert titanium honestly.
The 14 Pro Max version was a finger print smudge magnet so I hope that was addressed. Also they really can't handle any drop higher than 3 feet without breaking or even slipping off of the phone. For $50 it should be one of the best silicone cases out but it's not.
Have you tried the iphone 16 version though? Everyone says it's much improved over the 14 etc.
It should have cameras cover, front cover plus stand to it too
This is expensive to have 50% only
A Sili for the win 🏆
Of course, not. Calling this thing a dust magnet would be a huge understatement. Absolutely minimal drop protection. Will wear and tear at supersonic speeds.
Beautiful case ❤
Are you using a casetify glass protector? They put their branding even on glass protectors???? So you have to look at this every time you use your phone? Appalling. 😮
Yeah in this video I was using it. They do put their branding on the screen protector. It's kind of distracting.
I have the same combo u showed natural titanium pm n stone grey silicone case. Main reason bought silicone as i usually buy Mujjo leather cases but they have open capture button as other leather case companies seem to. Hope that changes.
love the 24 fps
How’s the fit on the corners? Is it like the previous ones, where the corner slips out on the first face down fall?
It's pretty good.
Good evening my friend, how are you? I'm not sure which case to buy. Do you think buying this case is worth it? Thank you very much!
I give my thoughts at the end of the video.
Does Apple case offer as much protection for drops as an otterbox symmetry?
no, otterbox is more protective.
Since when is there a bottom on the apple cases? I like swiping on them didn't realize these havw bottoms now.
Silicone ones have had it for years
No problem swiping from bottom with mine on.
Got this color today for black titanium PM love the combo and feel way lot bulky.
I have the same case, only in denim color it clicks in the lower right corner, just below the camera button. Does anyone else have this problem? Or is my case defective?
I think yours might be defective
Wild. 2024, and we still have ppl seeing success by making 11+ minute videos on a silicone phone case.
Wild. 2024, and we still have people going on a phone case video and talking trash for no reason because they have nothing better to do. Thanks for the engagement though 😂😂
@@Brians_tech you’re right, that definitely came off as hateful. Rough look for me tbh, sorry brodie!
I’m pretty happy with the black. I may get the stone.
The stone is very nice. I almost got black too
Does the black attract lots of fingerprints?
@ It’s not the worst.
I like the case but one thing about silicone they are dust magnets if you put it in your pocket.
This year's silicone case I've noticed is much better about it, actually.
6:41 thanks! Wanna see more reviewers testing this … portrait, and horizontal mode. One handed two handed etc….
I ordered the transparant one for now (will arrive tomorrow), but i am considering the blue and green silicon one as well.
I’m going to be reviewing the clear case as well. It was super slippery in the past so I want to see how it is this year.
@@Brians_tech Allright, i hope not. The only way to truly find out how it feels and looks (and smells maybe) is to buy it yourself. But the cases are a bit on the expensive side to try them all. I have the desert titanium iPhone 16 Pro Max, so it's also nice if it stays visible. I do like that blue color the most this year, but they didn't bring it to the Pro mode. So i most likely also order that silicon case as well.
The only thing with the transparent one is I believe the bottom is a cut out? I could be wrong ...
Apple clear case is very slippery on my 16 Pro. And yes it has a cut out on the bottom. It’s going back.
@@geep8591 Yeah, i can confirm. As said above i received mine yesterday. The cut out at the bottom is a shame, and if your hands are moist / sweaty it's slippery. But on the positive side i can enjoy my Desert Titanium look. With a silicon case that's hidden. But ehh i will try it for a couple of days and see how it goes. Am going to order a silicon one as well anyways.
Thank you for this upload.
Since my old iPhone 12, I’ve preferred and trusted the Apple clear silicone case. I'm using that type on my new and much-loved 16PM.
Maybe I’ll have a backup silicone case🤔🤭. The quality seems much improved since the old 8 Plus days😒…hopefully.
I don't think so!!! Why Li-ion battery enclosed by a steel case?
insanely good unboxing and review video man
What do you think about drop protection?
It’s a silicone case. Not really meant to be crazy protective. Be careful dropping it
@@Brians_tech Is there a drop protection case for 16 with the camera control button? All ive seen only have a hole there...
Eventually going to get the star fruit yellow case for my desert titanium phone.
I like that yellow. It's just a little too bright for me 😂
This is my first time purchasing an Apple case, and I’m 100% satisfied. (Feels great in the hands.)
Well worth the premium cost ($77 AU)! Stone grey looks amazing with natural titanium!
Supcase Unicorn Beetle also makes a great inexpensive case with an enclosed camera button feature.
Have the same combo❤
i swear 95% of the youtubers covering the 16 got the 16 pro max and not the regular 16. #makeiphonessmallagain 😢i held a iphone 5s the other day and was in awe i reslly miss those days heavily
now the iphones are so oversized cuz everyone was a mirrorless camera and a fuckin portable charger sized battery in they phone and the need the screen to be as big as the one in they living room 😂😂😂why not just get an LTE ipad at that point
These are 38 dollars on Amazon now
No more apple silicon cases overpriced and get ruined to easily
Nice to know about the new cases. I loved my same case for the 15pm on sale. I just picked up my black Apple silicon case today. 🔥
It feels great but it’s not a great case. Try dropping your phone face down and watch your screen take the impact because the silicone lip slides right off and starts to peel after a month making the case look bad on top of adding no front protection.

It’s a dust magnet
This year it's much better about dust.
Does it look oily after a few weeks?
It hasn’t been out for a few weeks, as the phone just came out. But so far, no, not oily.
Spigen Enzo Aramid more more best And price just
The problem with this silicone case is that it isn’t durable. It chips off and the material almost definitely will peel off after 6 months of use. Even apple related subReddits complain about how surprisingly bad it is. It’s actually crazy apple is charging 50 dollars (actually more like 60,70 dollars in other countries) for a case that can’t take more than 2 drops.
It’s a hair magnet. It’s annoying. I hope Nomad adds the camera control cover to their rugged case.
