4. Operating and Features
4.1. Material and Design
The case is woven from aramid fiber, a material known for its exceptional strength, lightness, and resistance to scratches, corrosion, and discoloration. This material is commonly used in aerospace and military applications. Unlike carbon fiber, aramid fiber does not interfere with cellular or Wi-Fi signals and is non-conductive.

With a thickness of approximately 0.03 inches and a weight of 0.63 ounces, the case maintains the iPhone 16 Pro's sleek profile, offering a near "caseless" feel while providing basic daily protection.

4.2. Protection Features
- Screen Protection: Features 0.3mm raised lips around the screen to prevent direct contact with surfaces when placed face down. This design also accommodates screen protectors (not included).
- Camera Protection: The case is designed with a 0.3mm higher rim around the camera module to protect the lenses from scratches.
- Edge Coverage: The top edge is covered to prevent scratches, while the bottom edge offers reduced exposure for added protection while maintaining a comfortable feel for swiping gestures.

5. Maintenance and Care
To maintain the appearance and functionality of your pitaka iPhone 16 Pro Case, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wipe the case regularly with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the aramid fiber.
- Handling: While the aramid fiber is durable, avoid excessive bending or twisting of the case, which could compromise its structural integrity.
- Fingerprint Smudging: Due to the nature of the material and finish, fingerprint visibility may occur depending on individual skin oils. This is a normal characteristic and not a defect. Regular cleaning can help minimize its appearance.
6. Troubleshooting
- Case does not fit: Ensure you have the correct model (iPhone 16 Pro, 6.3-inch). This case is not compatible with other iPhone models. Refer to Section 2 for compatibility details.
- MagSafe accessories not attaching securely: Verify that the MagSafe accessory is properly aligned with the magnetic ring on the case. Ensure there are no obstructions between the case and the accessory.
- Wireless charging issues: Confirm that your wireless charger is MagSafe compatible and functioning correctly. The case is designed not to impede wireless charging.
- Fingerprint marks visible: As noted in Section 5, some smudging may occur due to skin oils. This is normal. Clean the case regularly with a soft, damp cloth.
