2. Kitty Tough Case – extra drop protection

Why we like it:
• Double layers: soft, shock-absorbing inside + hard outside
• Better protection against drops from pocket height/table than thin single-layer shells
• Raised edge around the camera to protect the lenses
Recommended if you are the one who loses your phone (in the hallway, in the car, in the kitchen, you know 😅).

Which shell should you choose?

Slim Case – minimum bulk

Slim Case is made to feel “almost like a shell.” You get a full-coverage design, better grip, and protection around the edges—without making your iPhone 16 Pro Max feel bulky. Choose Slim if you care most about the feel in your hand and a sleek design.

Tough Case – most everyday protection

Tough Case has double layers (shockproof inside + hard outside). This is the case for those who know their phone will take a beating in their bag, in the car or on the kitchen counter. Choose Tough if you prioritize drop protection over thinness.

MagSafe Case – the smartest in everyday life

The MagSafe Case has built-in magnets that match Apple's MagSafe standard. This means your phone actually stays on the MagSafe charger, and you can use magnetic accessories like wallets, car mounts, and charging pads without holding and adjusting. Choose MagSafe if you're a daily wireless charger and like MagSafe accessories.

Does the case protect the camera on the iPhone 16 Pro Max?

Yes. Our cases have a raised edge around the camera module so that the lenses don't rest directly on the table. This is especially important on the iPhone 16 Pro Max, as the camera cluster sticks out quite a bit.

Do the cases work with wireless charging?

Yes. All of our cases work with wireless charging.
Our MagSafe cases also have a built-in magnetic ring that allows your phone to snap onto MagSafe chargers and MagSafe wallets, meaning stable charging without having to lie down and find the “sweet spot.”
