An image of a case for iPhone 16 has been posted. From the posted image, you can see the design around the iPhone 16’s rear camera and the notch for operating the capture button.
The design of the case is confirmed to match the leaked CAD data and mockups of the iPhone 16, and it seems that the design of the iPhone 16 is now finalized.
Design around the rear camera of iPhone 16
The CAD data has already been leaked, so there is nothing new, but the rear camera of iPhone 16 is significantly different from iPhone 15, the rear camera part has been changed from a square to a vertically long oval, and the LED flash is on the back panel instead of the rear camera part. It has been confirmed that it is installed on the same side as the
The microphone hole is thought to be placed between the wide-angle camera and ultra-wide-angle camera lenses in the rear camera section, and no such hole can be seen near the LED flash in the images of this case.
The capture button is expected to be flush with the housing.
As already confirmed in the rendered image, the capture button installed at the bottom of the right side of the iPhone 16 case will not be higher than the case like the power button, but will be embedded in the concave surface of the side of the case. It is expected that it will be installed.
Therefore, the button on the case is not separate, but instead has a cutout in the case so that you can directly operate the capture button.
This point was the same with the iPhone 16 Pro case posted by Sonny Dickson.
