The new iPhone 16 is here, and it features an A18 chip powerful enough to run Apple Intelligence features and a camera control button. You can pre-order these new devices starting Friday, September 13, and they'll officially launch later this month. But before your awesome smartphone arrives, you'll want to make sure you have a case. Because of the new camera control button, existing iPhone 15 cases won't fit the iPhone 16.


Luckily, there's no shortage of great cases to match your upcoming iPhone 16. We've already reviewed many cases from trusted and respected brands and were able to try one of them out for ourselves. Here are our top iPhone 16 case recommendations, which we'll continue to update as we test more cases.

  • Spigen Liquid Air iPhone 16

    The Editor's Choice

    Spigen Liquid Air Case for iPhone 16

    Spigen's Liquid Air is a versatile case that stays understated while adding structure and grip to your brand new iPhone 16. It has a grippy pattern on the back and protects the sides, display and camera of your smartphone. Of course, it has a cutout for the flagship button for camera control.

  • Mouse-Limitless-6-iPhone-16

    Premium selection

    Mous Limitless 6.0 Case for iPhone 16

    65$ 70$ Save $5

    If you're looking for a premium case, Mous has you covered with its Limitless 6.0 model. It comes in a variety of materials and finishes, including my favorites: aramid fiber and speckled fabric. It's thin yet protective, and offers excellent coverage of the side rails, display, and camera bump.

  • Supcase-UB-Grip-iPhone-16

    Promoted selection

    Supcase UB Grip Case for iPhone 16

    Supcase offers a rugged and feature-packed case with the UB Grip. It has the tough and rugged exterior the brand is known for, plus a MagSafe ring that doubles as a kickstand and finger grip. Additionally, it features a sleek one-piece construction and a stunning angular design.

  • ESR-Translucent-iPhone-16

    Best value for money

    ESR Translucent Matte Case for iPhone 16

    For those who value their phone above all else, it's hard to beat this case from ESR. It includes a MagSafe-compatible translucent case with ample protection for the screen and cameras. You also get a tempered glass screen protector in the box, all for under $20.

  • Casetify Ultra Bounce Case for iPhone 16

    Custom-made

    Casetify Ultra Bounce Case for iPhone 16

    Do you like custom designs and premium protection? That's the motto of the Casetify Ultra Bounce case. It's MagSafe compatible, has flexible rubber corners to protect against impacts, and holes for attachment points for straps and carabiners. It's not just designed as a case – it fits into a mobile carrying ecosystem.

  • Otterbox-Cactus-Leather-iPhone-16

    Cactus leather

    Otterbox Symmetry Series Case for iPhone 16

    If you're tired of the classic plastic and metals found on most phone cases, give your iPhone 16 some cactus leather with this Otterbox Symmetry Series case. It feels great in the hand and comes in four great colors, including Adobe Brown. There are also satisfying metal buttons and a cutout for the camera control button.

  • Incase-Slim-iPhone-16

    Colorful look

    Incase Slim Case for iPhone 16

    For those looking for a slim and simple case with some character, there's the Incase Slim. It's a simple, translucent plastic case that comes in four tinted colors and a clear option. This is a great way to match your new case to the color of your new iPhone 16.

  • Spigen Ultra Hybrid iPhone 16

    Clear case

    Spigen Ultra Hybrid Case for iPhone 16

    There's nothing better than a classic clear case, and Spigen makes the best with their Ultra Hybrid offering. It's flexible, durable, and offers MagSafe support. The cool thing about this case is that you can change the material of the MagSafe ring to carbon fiber if you want.

  • Mous-Super-Thin-iPhone-16

    Ultra-thin housing

    Mous Super Thin 2.0 Case for iPhone 16

    55$ 59$ Save $4

    Those who don't necessarily want to attach a case to their phone due to thickness will love the Mous Super Thin 2.0. It adds barely any extra bulk to your phone while providing an extra (albeit thin) layer of protection, making it one of the sleekest iPhone 16 cases on the market.

Our top picks for the best iPhone 16 cases in 2024

Although the iPhone 16 has only just been announced, there are already a number of cases you can buy to ensure your smartphone is protected from day one. I've already tried Casetify's Ultra Bounce case, albeit without an iPhone 16, and can vouch for the case's build quality and protective elements. Is it worth more than $100? That's up to you to decide, but it might be that you love the brand's unique design and emerging accessories ecosystem.

Another great option would be Otterbox's Symmetry Series case with cactus leather. While I haven't tried the iPhone 16 version yet, I spent a few months with the iPhone 15 Pro Max model and highly recommend it if you like leather. Spigen is rated as our best phone case brand overall, so you can't go wrong with the Liquid Air or Ultra Hybrid cases. So, which great iPhone 16 case will you choose?
