Leaked iPhone 16 case video reveals new iPhone design from all angles

There have been a number of iPhone design leaks recently, including a case that seems to show off the look of the entire iPhone 16 lineup, but this latest case leak may give us a better idea of what the iPhone 16 will look like when it is released this fall. Plus, it's video, meaning we can see it from all angles.

The video in question comes from Ice Universe and while he doesn't specify which iPhone 16 device this is, it looks like an iPhone 16 Plus. The lack of a third camera suggests that it is not a Pro model, and it appears to be slightly larger than the iPhone 16.

Other details of this case include a vertically aligned camera module, which is rumored to have been modified to support spatial video on non-Pro iPhone 16s. Similarly, there are holes for flash and rings for MagSafe and wireless charging.

There is also an additional button on the side of the case, near the volume keys, presumably to accommodate the action button that is rumored to be included on non-Pro models this year. On the right side of the case, below the power button, there is also a cutout that appears to be a capture button.

Not much is currently known about this button, but it is rumored that the Capture button is a solid state button designed to open and control the camera app. The question is why the Capture button has a notch rather than a button built into the case. If I had to guess, I would say that the nature of the button does not work very well despite the material of the case, i.e., the button needs to make physical contact in order to function.

As for the phone itself, it appears that this year will see another similar straight-edge phone with rounded edges. We also hear that the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus will have slimmer bezels, although it is not clear from this case. Overall, there are not many surprises here, and it is good to know that the iPhone 16 design leaks we have heard so far seem to be true.

Of course, we will have to wait until Apple officially announces something at the September Apple event. Until then, check out our iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro hub for all the latest news and rumors.
