Selecting the Right Cover for Your Apple iPhone 16e: Our Top Picks

The iPhone 16e is currently Apple's least costly mobile phone, yet it's not as budget friendly as its predecessor. Protect your investment with one of these cases.

Apple reserves its major iPhone reveals for the fall, but the company broke with custom by revealing the iPhone 16e in the middle of the year.

The most recent budget-friendly member of the iPhone 16 series supersedes the iPhone SE, boasting a layout that mixes components of both the Apple iPhone 16 and Apple iPhone 14. Therefore, if you have actually bought an Apple iPhone 16e, which begins at $599, you'll desire a brand-new case to protect your gadget.

The unexpected release of the iPhone 16e has actually apparently taken noticeable case makers by surprise. Significant brands such as Case-Mate, UAG, and OtterBox are currently offering "iPhone 16e cases" that include huge intermediaries on the back, created to fit the several camera lenses of the iPhone 14, rather than the single lens of the 16e. This layout oversight leaves a part of the phone prone to scratches. Consequently, we have excluded cases that were not especially created for the 16e from our factor to consider.

One more thing to note is that the this page iPhone 16e does not sustain MagSafe, so we have actually mainly left MagSafe chargers off the list. On our review device, we affixed an OtterBox Defender case that is marketed for the Apple iPhone 16e (and is the same case it sells for the iPhone 13, 14, and 15). The magnet in the case did not affix to the phone, yet we had the ability to connect a charger to the case and, with every little thing effectively aligned, the phone charged.

With that in mind, we recognized a couple of appropriate choices both your phone's needs and your individual requirements.
