Hello! The new and improved design works seamlessly with Apple's new camera control button on the Apple iPhone 16 line of our cases. Our engineering team not only found that the new notch does not diminish the drop protection of the case, we also re-engineered these cases to be Drop+ 7x rated up from Drop+ 4x rated on previous versions.
Very durable but very exposed on the camera button

I was a professional nanny and not one of my 15 kids (over 5 years) could break my phone because of the OtterBox. It would fall from the top of the slide, pulled in a tug of war between 3 year olds, fly across the room and bounce off the wall. I dropped it all the time reaching for a little one trying to take off.
I am always dropping my phone. This time around when it was time to replace everyone’s devices, my one requirements was everyone get an Otterbox before they use it. Of the 4 devices we were upgrading, mine was the only one without defect. No cracks or broken glass. The other three, frankly, is why we had to upgrade. Theirs were two years old and all cracked up. Mine was 4 years old - good as new. Get an Otterbox.
