Leaked iPhone 16 Case Reveals Potential New Design Features
A video posted by reliable leaker Ice Universe on June 22, 2024, may offer a first look at the design of Apple’s upcoming iPhone 16. The footage depicts an alleged iPhone 16 case, showing possible details about the device’s button layout and camera lens arrangement. The case appears to be for the iPhone 16 Plus, suggested by its large size and dual-lens cutout, indicating a non-Pro model.
