Case is good and durable
The case is good and durable, but the design of the case where the camera button is on the iphone 16 pro max is flawed and should be solid on both sides

Thank you for your feedback! The new and improved designed cases work seamlessly with Apple's new camera control button on the Apple iPhone 16 line of cases. Our engineering team not only found that the new notch does not diminish the drop protection of the case. Please reach out to our Customer Service team via chat and we are happy to help with any questions or concerns you may have on this!

Disappointed
I am highly disappointed that the case does not protect the edge of the phone where the weird button is located on the side.

Amazing Phone Case
Left the phone on the hood of the car. The phone flew off the car at 50 MPH and ended up on the side of the highway. The case absorbed the brunt of the impact, and the phone survived! Best case ever!

Disappointing Design.
The case is of quality, and I have used outter box before. This cover has a cutout for the photo button. It is really annoying. So annoying, I stopped using the cover and put my old one back on. I will not be using this cover. Terrible design!

Stains easily
Stains easily and using the recommended cleaning instructions doesn’t get it out. I am tired of wasting money on your products.

OtterBox the number one cases of all times
OtterBox is a really good brand and I would buy it before any other case is the best. They have good prices and you can catch them on sale. I’ll try other brands. They just don’t work that well OtterBox last like it says Auto shell skin whatever it is is very hard and doable so it’s OtterBox case cases.

Defender Otterbox is Stout!
Case is very stout and has the ability for wireless charging. Have had no issues with this and will buy other otterbox cases if I need to.

Have always used Otterbox cases for all my phones, from the iPhone 4 to my iPhone 16 pro max. Protected my phones just great.

iphone 16 pro max issue with camera button
Camera Button should also be covered like all the other buttons, I feel the exposed area of the edge of the phone is open to damage via dropping, why does the camera button not have coverage like the other buttons?
