iPhone Cases
From personal experience I can recommend 2 case brands and one to avoid.
I use a Mous case on my iphone 16 pro max. It is a fantasic case with great buttons. Mine is around 1.5 years old and still in great condition. The only downsides is that it is a little big and bulky and the top edge is a little high, so when I swipe down I sometimes touch the top edge but it didn’t take me long to get used to it.
The other brand I can recommend is Tech21. My son has had Tech21 evo lite cases on a iPhone 13 pro, then a iPhone 14 Pro Max, and now a iPhone 15 Pro Max. They are light and not bulky and every protective and durable. They also have a grippy pattern that mades them very hard to drop.
The one brand that I dont recommend is Casetify. My daughter bought one for her iPhone 14 Pro Max and they are big and bulky and add a lot of weight. Within 6 months the case had warped and when she dropped her phone the back glass smashed. Casetify did replace the case under warrenty with another case. It could have been a once off issue as the second case was fine.
