Loop Quality Fail

Been a loop case fan since they came out. These new ones missed the mark sadly. The loop doesn’t seem to have a magnet at all, the quality of the loop wore out within a week. Their older models lasted at least 6 months to a year. Which I was fine with, as I’m a heavy loop user. I love the case overall but I mainly buy this for the loop. I hope they improve this design going forward.
The material on the new colors just don’t seem the same even though they say they are between the green and black.
I started using this case with my iPhone 12 and have recently upgraded to the 16. The bones of the case have remained the same but they have made upgrades to the MagSafe magnet strength and have changed the buttons to a hard molded plastic which feel much nicer than the earlier cases. I also have the locking phone mount (Ram mount) and it is a great accessory to have if you want more security on top of the MagSafe. The case for my iPhone 12 was not compatible with screen protectors (or at least the screen protectors I was using at the time) this new case seems fully compatible with screen covers.
Avoid at all costs. Shattered phone after Replaced

Terrible case. Either I got a manufacturing defect twice (the loop broke after one month of use, got a replacement) or this round of cases is crap. I just dropped my phone from shoulder height on cars wood floor and it just cracked the back of my phone. It's completely shattered after a few months of use. Absolutely terrible. I may not ever buy one of these phone cases again. Please make a more durable case for iPhone 16 pro. These are not built for real everyday use let alone outdoor activities. My old iPhone 13 Pro make it 2+ years without a scratch on it with a peak design case on. Multiple drops on rocks and boulders etc and not a scratch. Fiancé also has a pixel case and has no problems. iPhone 16 pro? Avoid this case at all cost. There is not enough camera protection. Moving on until they fix these problems. Wish they could buy me a new phone as I feel like I was sold a load of crap. I'm a loyal peak design customer and have spent thousands on gear but this time my trust is lowered in this brand.
I have had this case for a few months now. Works well on my bike mount, but the case is wearing in certain spots and the loop is completely useless. The finger loop no longer sits flat when not in use, and now it’s actually falling apart. Disappointing for such an expensive item.
3 years ago I bought the Everyday Case for imy phone 13 and it's in honestly been my favourite mobile case I've ever had. So when I upgraded to the iphone 16, a new Everyday Case was a must buy! And honestly, I think they've improved the quality...the buttons have a more tactile feel to them and it seems to be more rugged then ever.
Case does nearly everything I want out of a case, and is a slight improvement over my previous case for an older phone.
If I could make one suggestion. The camera cutout area has ribbed edges. I feel like that would make it feasible to create some sort of rubber or plastic covering for the camera that would use the ribbed edges as a grasping point. Maybe something to think about in a future iteration as I think that would help justify the premium price.
I got this case for my iPhone 16 Pro Max and love it. Now acquiring the whole system of mounts and accessories. The quality - design and engineering is superior to anything on the market. If you want the best for your phone then go with Peak Design. Enjoy !!
