Word on the street
"Smartish has made quite a name for itself in the wallet phone cases business, and once again it makes one of the best options for the iPhone 16."

I’ve had several Smartish Slayer wallet cases for a couple of phones, and have loved them. So I figured this one would be just as high quality. Sadly, it’s not. The image is much lower quality and just looks like a sticker attached to a basic, solid color case. It also has a gross sticky feel to it that the Slayer cases don’t have. It’s honestly not worth returning since the shipping isn’t refundable, but I’ll either stick with the Slayer cases in the future or find a different brand.

I really love this case! It protects my phone well, as I’ve already dropped it several times and it hasn’t sustained any damage. The grippers on the side make it easy to hold and prevent me from dropping the phone. It was very easy to put the case on. It’s also simple to clean with a disinfectant or alcohol wipe. The color of the case is vibrant and hasn’t faded despite repeated cleanings. In short, this is a very high quality, beautiful, durable, protective and affordable phone case. I would definitely buy it again!

Great value. Slip proof sides, low profile design and honestly better than the Spigen and Speck cases for twice the money. Very happy with the purchase and I would purchase again. If your hands are sloppy and you like low profile, this is a must have!

Fits and works great

It is a this time a rare 16e case with solid colors. Construction and design hit all criteria. Very good grip on the sides with addition of slight ribs as an extra feature. Back is smooth for ins and outs of pockets. MagSafe ability finishes the menu

Sleek, simple, lightweight. Does what other big brands do for a reasonable price. Threw my phone across the room to test out the impact and it stayed on fine - no damage. Doesn’t get stuck in my pocket. I already prefer this over Otterbox (and I was a loyalist).

I usually buy Magbak phone cases but they didn’t have any colorful ones for the iPhone 16. So I went with this one and it is A+++ all around! So glad I bought it. Beautiful case. Quality is fire! And the jaded green is so pretty, I love it so much that I am actually on here writing a review. For the screen protector I recommend amFilm. And for the phone case, I def would recommend this one.

Kinda strange to make a Magsafe case for the iPhone 16e -- which doesn't have the Magsafe feature. Maybe the case magnets are strong enough to tether to a Magsafe holder, even if it won't charge? Curious.

A great fit for my new iPhone 16E. I selected it because I've had a Smartish cover on my prior 2nd generation SE and it has worked well keeping my iPhone safe for 5 years. Slides in and out of my pocket with ease.Some folks might object to the triangular shape lens cutout on the back side since many other brands use a rectangle or square shape. I actually think the triangle shape is more custom than the generic rectangle or square formats.

Ordered this case for my new iphone 16 and it fits perfectly. Nit has a nice, non-slippery feel to it without feeling sticky.

Been using the gripmunk since smartish was silk. Went with the clear back with the black sides this time and just as impressed. This is THE case to get for a one and done.
Nina
After looking around constantly for a nice hard sturdy case I finally found it here. I work in rough oily conditions and my phone would always slip out of my hands. But with this case it has a nice grip and isn?t as thick as other cases. It doesn?t slip out my hands and easy to clean love it!
Ken
Very easy to install on my new phone. Great protection and looks great too.
Michael
This phone case is made of soft plastic so it?s very easy to snap iPhone to the case. It fits perfectly with all buttons works even covered by the plastic except the camera button is through an open hole.The rim is finished with sand texture that helps to hold the phone easily. It also has curved rim at the lower side for fingers to hold the phone more solid.Only wish it has extra corner protection and lens protector included.
David
I love this case. It fits my iPhone 16 perfectly, is light weight and stylish. The cut-out for the camera control is amply sized and makes the button easy to use. Well, as *easy* as that button is, but that's for an iPhone review, not a case review :) The only thing I will note about the case is that this is essentially a black case with what appears to be a vinyl sticker on the back. It seems very sturdy and I have no indication it will be an issue, I was just a bit surprised when I got it. That said, it is exceptionally well made and I love this case. I have been using Smartish cases for the past few years and honestly, there is nothing as well made or light for the price. You really can't go wrong.

I hoped this case would feel a little nicer to hold I find the sides to add too much bulk overall. The colors of the striped model just seem off. Hoped for a more retro look but this didn?t hit the mark. I?d keep it if it felt better in my hands.

Fits iPhone 16 perfectly. Feels solid, not slippery. Sides are texted for grip. Purchased because of Wirecutter recommendation.

The Smartish iPhone 16 Magnetic Case has quickly become my favorite phone accessory. Right out of the box, I could tell this case was designed with both practicality and protection in mind. It offers a fantastic grip without being bulky, which is perfect for someone like me who?s always juggling their phone while on the move.What really sets it apart is its compatibility with MagSafe. The magnetic connection works flawlessly, whether I?m attaching it to my car mount, using a MagSafe charger, or adding a wallet. Everything clicks into place securely, and I don?t have to fumble around to get it aligned.The Gripmunk texture is exactly what I was looking for?it?s just grippy enough to prevent slips, but still smooth enough to slide easily in and out of my pocket. It doesn?t pick up lint or fingerprints either, which is a huge plus. The cutouts for buttons and ports are precise, and it doesn?t interfere with the functionality of the phone at all.In terms of protection, it provides solid coverage. The raised edges around the screen and camera give me peace of mind that my phone is safe from drops or scratches. I?ve dropped my phone a couple of times already, and this case has definitely done its job!Overall, the Smartish iPhone 16 Magnetic Case is a must-have for anyone with an iPhone 16 who values a balance of grip, protection, and MagSafe compatibility. Highly recommend it!
SF
The case has a nice, grippy texture on the sides and feels well-made. The case has a minor blemish and the company had zero hesitation in sending out a replacement (which is perfect). Will keep buying these Gripmunk cases as long as they make them.

Case fit perfectly on my new iPhone 16. Magsafe magnets had a secure hold while still allowing seamless wireless charging. Case finish was sleek and felt pleasant in the hand while also looking fantastic. Lastly the Usb C charging cutout was large enough as to handle a variety of chargers without issue. 10/10

This case seems like it would be good protection. I like the rough textured edges on it to get a firm grip. I also like the finger grooves on the gripmunk. It?s a nice case!
Sean
This is a thoughtfully designed and inexpensive case. I particularly like the texture around the sides and the subtle grooves where your fingers rest. It?s not sticky like the Apple Silicone Case, so there?s no issues with sliding in and out of pockets and it?s not a dust and grime magnet.My chief complaint is the giant cutout for the camera control button. I?d happily purchase a revised version with a solid button similar to Apple?s own cases.
