For iPhone 16 Pro Max

Cases and glass for the iPhone 16 Pro Max

The iPhone 16 Pro Max has a 6.9-inch screen in a titanium body. Apple measures it at 163mm by 77.6mm by 8.25mm and 227 grams, with a textured matt glass back. Over time a first case gets scuffed and a screen protector chips, and this page is where to find the replacements.

A case, screen protector, camera protector or set is listed on this page when its own model choices name the iPhone 16 Pro Max. Pick the iPhone 16 Pro Max in those choices when you order: the same product is often made in many sizes, and the choice decides which one is sent. Cables, chargers and holders are not listed by phone, because they fit every phone; they are linked further down.

Wireless charging on the 16 Pro Max

Apple rates the 16 Pro Max at up to 25W on MagSafe with a 30W adapter or higher, and lists other Qi chargers at up to 7.5W. So a plain charging pad works but is slow; a MagSafe-compatible magnetic charger is quicker and holds the phone in place. A thin or magnetic case keeps that speed; a thick or metal one costs some, as the guide to wireless charging explains. Wired, it charges by USB-C, with files at up to 10Gb/s on a USB 3 cable.

The cameras

Apple lists a 48MP Fusion camera, a 48MP Ultra Wide and a 12MP 5x Telephoto of tetraprism design, with a LiDAR Scanner, under sapphire crystal lens covers. That is a different set of lenses from the 17 Pro Max's, and the outside measurements differ too. Camera Control sits on the side and takes a click, a light press and a slide: check how each case meets it.

Questions people ask about iPhone 16 Pro Max cases

Will a 17 Pro Max case fit my 16 Pro Max?

No. The 17 Pro Max is a little bigger every way, by Apple's measurements, and has different lenses. Choose the 16 Pro Max in the model choices.

Does a clear case hide the matt back?

A clear case shows the colour but covers the texture. A frosted or matte case keeps a similar feel in the hand.

How often should I change the screen protector?

When it chips, cracks or lifts at the edge. A chipped protector can still have done its job, taking a knock the screen would have taken. See the guide to fitting a new one.
