The speaker holes are misaligned and covering the speaker grills… also the sub cutout is not aligned. This is an iPhone 16 pro max with the apple silicone case. Anyone else facing this?
I think they would swap this for you without issue. I dropped mine and dinged it, but the Apple Genius Bar guy immediately agreed to give me a new one.

Thank you. I am going there now.
I read somewhere that this happens a lot with the latest silicon cases. Strange.

Yes, mine have the same issue too.
Since the speaker grills are covered, this should be replaceable.

Imagine someone downvoted you… yes, thank you, they refunded me.
Mine are misaligned too but not that much. I think this is common with most cases this time. I’d try for another one and hope it’s better but it might not be perfect.

Got a refund because of this luck.
Never buy the apple silicon cases. I got one for my 13 and after a few months, the silicon started peeling off. This has happened to everyone I know who had one.

Someone posted before that when their case got ruined, they went to the apple store and got it replaced under warranty.

Oh wow, I didn’t know Apple had damage protection for accessories. I would’ve done that but it’s too late now.
No issues at all and they refunded me fully (bought it on launch day, 20 Sep).
I think you mean the case. I doubt it. I get my cases from cheap Chinese online stores. They’re not perfect but they didn’t cost me a lot.

They are refunding me as we speak.
I’m a bit confused about what item is defective. The case or the phone?

The case… the cutouts don’t align (I guess you don’t see it which is why you downvoted me).

Oh, I never downvoted you, bro lol.
@Payton
Sorry about that… my bad. It’s all good.

Yeah, I thought it might’ve been the drill outs for the speaker holes. Edit: I meant the drill outs on the actual phone.
