In today's review, we'll be looking at a pair of PanzerGlass cases for iPhone 16e. These are the ones that recently arrived at our editorial office, and since they take the usability of the iPhone 16e a step further, especially thanks to the integrated MagSafe, it's worth at least briefly introducing them. So let's get started.
panzerglass CARE Samba
panzerglass CARE Samba offers a combination of reliable protection and maximal practicality. It is made of durable TPU material, which ensures high flexibility and strength, effectively protecting the phone from drops, scratches and abrasions. Thanks to precise cutouts, full access to all controls andoneThe cover supports wireless charging including MagSafe technology, so there's no need to remove it when charging. Special design for extra miniminimizes the contact of the display with the surface, thereby reducing the risk of scratching it.
In terms of design and overall construction of the cover, while at first glance it seems quite minimalistically, upon closer inspection you will notice that this is a relatively robust cover with highlighted corners, which are "cut out" inside so that after placing the phone in the cover, air "pockets" are created in them, which absorb the impact in the event of a fall of the phone and the impact does not rest directly on the phone itself. On both sides of the cover there are grooves that improve its overall grip, which personally suits me quite a lot. But the button covers on the sides are also nice, they are not too hard and can be dented without any problems.
The only minor problem with this cover is that it is quite difficult to remove the phone from it. The cover has quite strong sides, and if the phone "fits" into them, it is not easy to pry it out. However, if you do not change covers every day, then I believe you will be satisfied. Otherwise, there is nothing to worry about. The black matte TPU is pleasant to hold, reliably protects against scratchesanci, it absorbs falls and thanks to the integrated magnet it also gives your iPhone 16e the missing MagSafe, so you can use it on the go magnetic chargers, stands, etc. The magnet itself is also very strong, so you don't have to worry about it falling off the device, for example, during major shocks.

panzerglass CARE Urban Combat and Star Lit
panzerglass CARE cover for Apple iPhone The 16e in Urban Combat combines high durability with a modern design. The transparent TPU and polycarbonate construction provides maximal protection against scratches, scuffs and impacts, while solid workmanship ensures long life. Precise cutouts maintain full access to all controls, so the phone remains fully functional even with the cover on. Support for wireless charging including MagSafe allows for convenient charging without having to remove the cover. Thanks to the specially designed construction, it is also miniThe contact of the display with the surface is minimized, which contributes to its protection. As for the Star Lit version, it actually differs from the Urban Combat only in that glitters are placed in the transparent body, making the cover more feminine.
If you like transparent glossy covers of a slightly more robust format, you'll find what you're looking for here. This is exactly what these two covers from PanzerGlass offer. Compared to the aforementioned Samba cover, this is a less robust cover, but there's no need to worry about significantly lower protection. Especially in combination with a protective glass, these covers will ensure perfect safety for your phone. And thanks to the fact that the sides of the cover are softer, it's not so laborious to remove the cover from the phone and replace it with another one. The only thing to consider is that the combination of black frames around the display with the transparent TPU side of the cover optically enlarges the phone. But if you don't mind that, you're in luck. This cover feels really great in your hand and, given its protective capabilities in combination with the MagSafe magnets on the back, it does exactly what it's supposed to do.

Summary
If you are looking quality mobile phone covers made of TPU, then the pieces from PanzerGlass are definitely a good choice. While Samba will provide you with uncompromising protection, especially when using a protective glass and a camera lens cover, Urban Combat or Star Lit will let the design of your iPhone 16e stand out to the fullest thanks to the transparent body, although of course at the cost of slightly lower protection compared to Samba. When I add to the super protection and attractive design the integrated MagSafe, which takes the usability of the iPhone 16e to a new level (although of course without support for faster wireless charging), I think there is not much to think about here. PanzerGlass has long been a safe bet and covers for iPhone 16e just proves it.
