Just got this in the mail today and I really like how the case looks. I had bought a iBlasen armor box case but decided to go with something more appealing.
Is the camera ring sufficient for drop protection? Just got mine today for 16 pro max 😊 but im wondering if the camera ring will protect, its just slightly above the camera
thanks for the content, great video and I have this case on order now for my 16-pro max, I am currently using the Otter box defender pro Realtree color. I ordered the Black with matte back and ordered white and the blue buttons to mix n match
Nice review as always loving the black one with the matte back and the orange buttons looks class and as you said it won’t show up a lot of fingerprints. Thanks 😊
Thanks, Mary! They are very nice cases...good drop protection, lightweight, swappable camera ring and buttons, and I'm loving the enhanced grip and new matte back design option this year. Plus, the SnapGrip wallet is fun and functional! Have a great week, and thanks again for being such a loyal subscriber!! ❤️
I’m mainly interested in their matte screen protector. I always opt for Apple’s silicone case, especially now, since it's the only one that provides coverage for the new capacitive camera button.
Hi Mark!! FLOLAB was kind enough to send me a bunch of different screen protectors and I’ll be sure to review them soon. And I’ll also be getting the Apple silicone case…the special covered Camera Control button will be really interesting to check out.
Hi! Great to hear from you! I'm not sure if I'll get a chance to review the OtterBox Defender this fall...but you might want to check out the new Cyber Tough case from ESR. I've got a review that I'll be publishing later today and you can check it out there. Very Defender-esq...and a whole lot cheaper!
It feels very slightly larger, because the new phone itself is very slightly larger. Almost all the difference is in the height, however. It's a little bit taller.
Hi Val! It looks like exactly the same material as last year (other than the addition of a frosted version), so I'm guessing that scratching is going to be about the same. And yes...there was quite a bit of scratching with the 15 Pro model. I think it was especially noticeable with the black translucent version.
It's got a little grip on the sides, so I don't find it to be slippery to use. It's not a very grippy case, though. Depends on the level of grip you are looking for...

@@TheTechReviewer Actually, it really is. Just need a simple adjustment. Go into settings, accessibility, camera control and under light-press select lighter. 👍🏻 Apple needs to make this default since it makes it so much easier to use the camera button. You might find this works even better for you without the Apple camera button on the case.
dont order from these people gotta pay shipping wait a full week and find out they cant get your order right these guys will send you the right sized screen and the wrong sized case in the same order, they have worse accuracy than some fast food places fulfilling orders. then you gotta hope they can take care of their mistake for free without shipping charge again, according to most of the internet they will make you pay for their mistake.
I'm sorry to hear you had a negative experience with FLOLAB! I know they are a small company, and I suspect that they tend to be a bit overwhelmed at iPhone launch time because of the large volume of orders. As far as shipping is concerned, you can get free shipping, but you have to have a pretty large order to qualify. I totally get that you don't like to pay shipping, but I think that shipping cost has to be paid somehow, and those companies that offer free shipping have just added the cost of shipping to the product price. Thanks for watching! And I hope your next FLOLAB order (if there is one) works out better. 🤞
I hear you...but I think that the companies that offer free shipping are typically just adding in the shipping cost to the product price. No such thing as a free lunch!
@@TheTechReviewer I mean I’d rather have them just add it to the price of the item. That way I know off the bat if something is too expensive. I just hate when something is listed at $30 and then at check out my total now is $43 with taxes and shipping. I was looking to buy a case for my phone with 2 different button colors. My cart was $37 and then after putting in all my info my total is now $53🥴lol I just closed the tab and bought something from Amazon instead
Thank you for showing all the angles so well!

Awesome! Thanks for sharing!!
A great review as always. Really appreciate your work. 👌🏻
Thank you! So happy you found my review to be helpful. Are you upgrading to the iPhone 16 series?
@@TheTechReviewer Yes, preordered. Although i’m not that excited. There is literally no innovation in the new iPhones compared to Huawei Mate XT.
@iamdrhunk I hear you! The new Huawei trifold phone looks so cool! Apple really needs to try to be more innovative…

Nice idea to do two different colors of buttons! I bet that is going to look gorgeous. Enjoy!!

Lots of cool stuff to check out soon!!
Oké I have ordered the whole flolab pack for my new pro Max 16. Coming from a mouse case, I hope I made the right choise.
Exciting! Hope you love it!! Let me know!
Are you going to do a review of the OtterBox defender xt cases? 🎉
Hi! Great to hear from you! I'm not sure if I'll get a chance to review the OtterBox Defender this fall...but you might want to check out the new Cyber Tough case from ESR.

And here is that review (with the new ESR Cyber Tough Case that I think might interest you). 😊 ua-cam.com/video/DBNF9zsJGR4/v-deo.html
What is the material of the case buttons? Are they soft? Im worried about the phone buttons getting scratched if they are hard plastic. Thanks!
They are a relatively hard plastic. Not soft.
Does it feel a little bigger than the 15 pro? Could you compare them in the following video?
It feels very slightly larger, because the new phone itself is very slightly larger. Almost all the difference is in the height, however. It's a little bit taller.
Can you tell if the scratching issue is better than the previous generation?
Hi Val! It looks like exactly the same material as last year (other than the addition of a frosted version), so I'm guessing that scratching is going to be about the same. And yes...there was quite a bit of scratching with the 15 Pro model. I think it was especially noticeable with the black translucent version.
How about the grip of the case?
It's got a little grip on the sides, so I don't find it to be slippery to use. It's not a very grippy case, though. Depends on the level of grip you are looking for...

Hi Cliff! You are so nice…making my day with your kind comment!! And thanks for the sub! ❤️
The variety of textures in the kislux pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.
These cut out cases for the camera button have got to go. Apple is the only one doing it right.

@brenttitus2134 Thsnks, Brent! I will give that a try! I’d read about that fix, but hadn’t tried it.

I don’t buy anything from any online retailer that makes me pay for shipping.
