Why Cleaning Matters More Than You Think
The iPhone 16 Pro Max is one of Apple’s sleekest designs yet—but even the most premium case can lose its shine without proper care. Dust, fingerprints, makeup residue, and even UV exposure can make your phone case look dull or yellow over time.
Keeping your iPhone 16 Pro Max case clean isn’t just about looks—it also helps prevent bacteria buildup and extends your case’s lifespan.
Step-by-Step: How to Clean Your iPhone 16 Pro Max Case Safely
🧼 1. Remove the Case
Always start by removing your case from your iPhone 16 Pro Max. Cleaning with it on can let moisture get trapped, which can harm your phone.
💧 2. Prepare a Gentle Cleaning Solution
Mix a few drops of mild dish soap in warm water. Avoid harsh chemicals like bleach, alcohol, or acetone—they can weaken the case material or damage the coating.
🧽 3. Clean Using a Soft Cloth or Sponge
Dip a microfiber cloth or soft sponge in the solution, then gently wipe both the inside and outside of the case. Focus on edges and camera ring areas where dirt tends to build up.
🌊 4. Rinse and Dry
Rinse the case thoroughly with clean water to remove soap residue. Then pat dry with a lint-free towel and air-dry completely before reattaching it to your phone.
