Get a look at the official iPhone 16e case

Apple just announced the new iPhone 16e. This is the company’s newest affordable phone that’s not all that affordable. Well, if you’re looking to part with $600 for the phone, you’ll want to track down some accessories. Here is the official case for the iPhone 16e.

In case you want to know more about this phone, it’s the newest entry-level iPhone. Coming with an Apple A18 chip, a 6.1-inch display, Apple Intelligence, a 48MP camera, Apple’s first in-house modem, and iOS 18, this is a formidable phone. However, we’re just not sure that it justifies the $599 price tag. This is especially true since the more powerful iPhone 16 costs only $200 more. In any case, you will be able to put in your pre-order on Friday, February 21st. General sales will start on February 28th.

Here is the official case for the iPhone 16e

Undoubtedly, tons of third-party companies are going to offer their own accessories for this phone. However, you don’t want to forget that Apple also makes accessories for its devices. With the iPhone 16e out from behind the curtains, the company also took the wraps off its line of official case.

This is a silicone case, so they’ll have a soft rubbery feeling to them. The silicone is flexible enough to properly absorb the shock from a fall. This is key, as rigid cases can sometimes transfer the impact force directly to the phone, causing damage. The iPhone 16e is properly built, but any phone can use a case.

This case comes in five colors, and they all look nice. There’s Black, White, Winter Blue, Fuchsia, and Lake Green. They’re likely to add some color and aesthetic flair to your phone. Frustratingly enough, the iPhone 16e only comes in black and white. Those colors, while they look nice, are rather boring.

As for the material, this is Apple we’re talking about, so you can expect it to be high-quality. You know that you’ll be able to use it for years. So, if you drop your phone from an average height, the phone will survive. As an added bonus, Apple made this case out of 55% recycled materials.

Coming to $39.00, the price isn’t bad. While you’ll be able to find cheaper cases, you’ll have the assurance that Apple designed the case.

You can order a case today, but shipments won’t kick off until February 28th. There’s not much point in getting a case when you don’t have the phone.
