Beats has launched its first case for iPhone 16 phones. And to answer the common question regarding iPhone 16 series cases: will third-party cases have a cutout for the camera control feature – Beats cases come with a touch button to support the feature. This means you can use the camera control feature just like you do it on the iPhone 16s without the case; The case is smart enough to sense touch and pressure. Beats says the Touch button uses a sapphire crystal, which is bonded to a conductive layer that transmits finger gestures to the camera control system. The new Beats cases also support MagSafe charging, just like the official Apple cases.

“We’re pleased to introduce the first iPhone case designed by Beats,” said Oliver Schusser, Apple’s vice president of Apple Music and Beats. “Beats has always been synonymous with distinctive style and vibrant colors and our new cases are the perfect way to accessorize the new iPhone 16 lineup.”

Additionally, similar to official Apple covers, Beats cases are also made of soft microfiber material. These cases are available in some beautiful and pop colors like Midnight Black, Summit Stone, Riptide Blue, and Sunset Purple. These cases are available on the Apple India website and are priced at Rs 4,900. The price of the case is the same for all models – iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. These cases are available to order through the Apple website and their delivery time is about a week.

The new Beats Case is priced similar to the Apple Silicone Case, which are also available on the Apple website for Rs 4,900. The iPhone clear case also costs the same. But then, what’s the difference? The Beats affair is more lively, and if we say, “funky”. They sport a hard shell polycarbonate back, complemented by flexible sidewalls to optimize shock absorption while making the case thin, light, and easy to hold.

Additionally, as mentioned above, the Beats cases are also MagSafe compatible with built-in magnets to support wireless charging. Beats also says that the packaging of the Beats iPhone 16 case is completely fiber-based, with all wood fiber being either completely recycled or responsibly sourced.
