How MagSafe Works in iPhone 16 Cases
The iPhone 16 uses an array of magnets arranged in a ring beneath the rear glass. A MagSafe-compatible case includes a ferrite ring in the same position, which guides MagSafe accessories to snap into perfect alignment automatically. Without a ferrite ring, or with a mispositioned ring, accessories align poorly, and MagSafe chargers cannot achieve full 15 W speed. Gorilla Cases iPhone 16 MagSafe cases include a precision-positioned ferrite ring matched to Apple's MagSafe coil geometry for secure snap and full charging speed.
MagSafe vs Qi2 on the iPhone 16
The iPhone 16 supports both MagSafe (Apple 15 W) and Qi2 (open standard 15 W). Gorilla Cases iPhone 16 MagSafe cases support both through the same ferrite ring, giving access to Apple's MagSafe ecosystem and the growing range of third-party Qi2 accessories. This future-proofs your case investment as Qi2 adoption expands throughout 2026 and beyond.
Action Button and Camera Control Cutouts
The iPhone 16 introduced two new hardware controls — the programmable Action Button on the left edge and the capacitive Camera Control button on the right edge. Both require precise cutouts in any iPhone 16 case. Gorilla Cases engineers dedicated cutouts for both controls in the correct positions for the iPhone 16 form factor, maintaining full access to the Action Button for custom shortcuts and the Camera Control for direct photo and video capture without unlocking.
