The iPhone 16 Pro Defender case with MagSafe works and looks great. I am especially pleased that this version has the MagSafe option and also that the edging around the cameras really helps to protect them. I also like how compact the case is.
Not sure if I like that the new iPhone Defender case does not wrap around a button on the lower right side. Kind of cool looking design, and I imagine its because this button might be hard to press if completely surrounded by the plastic inner case and the rubber outer case. Still, I assume they've tested the new design's ability to still provide the outstanding protection it always has offered. No phone gets used for my family until it is protected by an Otterbox!
I always get a defender to protect my phone. I don’t like the design that the photo button is exposed. I am worried about it dropping there and cracking my phone.
I’m most please by the addition to the defender series case with the addition of the mag safe. I’ve had several defender cases throughout the years and the little cover piece for the charging port always seems to wear out first, often falling out and getting lost. With this new case, I don’t have that problem as I was able to transition to MagSafe charging. My only concern is the little notch where the new camera button is. I know I’m going to drop the phone and something will eventually break that button, but I know why it’s there, as the button is touch sensitive.
I love the case and it’s been great! My only issue with it is that the area around the camera control button is very awkward and feels like part of the case is missing. Would've loved if the case went around the button!
I have had every defender case since the iPhone 3 very sturdy case over the years they seem to get thinner I trust this brand and I’m very very hard on my phone
Can’t put it in the holster but one way, and to me it’s up side down. I have the 16 pro. Out of habit I’am always putting it in the holster upside and affair of lose the phone because of this
