Bought my otter max to protect my brand new iPhone 16 pro max for a two week European trip. I'm prone to dropping my phone and felt very protected with this case. No problems fitting it into my cross body purse and it wasn't slippery so didn't go sliding anywhere.
Case works well, but the back tends to look rainbow instead of clear in certain lights.

I really want to love this case for the IPhone 16 ProMax but I’m struggling. The pros: The floral pattern/color is beautiful. Also, the mag safe charging seems to work well with the case. The cons: The HUGE cutout notch for the camera button makes holding the phone feel very akward. It is hard to type without nearly dropping the phone. I’m sure it was drop-tested but having a huge exposed opening on my case makes me nervous and I question how much protection is really provided. I also don’t like the idea of the button itself not having protection from dust/damage. I have been a huge supporter of the Otterbox Defender series ever since I bought my 1st smartphone many, many years ago. This is the 1st time I’ve ever felt like the Otterbox case might fail me and might actually be the cause of damage to my phone because it is difficult to hold/grip. I hope I’m wrong. Also, when I ordered the case I selected the free clip option because I like to have those on hand. I was disappointed to open my package and see that I have to order that separately.
