PLEASE READ:

Hi all,

Here is a Maker World exclusive, "lite" version of my company's iPhone 16 bumper case, for y'all to print at home. I believe in a future where consumer grade products can be more easily micro manufactured in the comfort of your own home so after about a year of designing, over-engineering, and testing, I started a phone case phone case manufacturing and retail business selling my bumper cases. The difference with this “lite” version is that it is designed for printing with TPU 95 AND 95 HF (also TPU for AMS but it's a bit stiff IMO), instead of the higher quality material I use, as well as, has narrower sides all around, shrunk from 3mm to 2.4mm for ease of printing. Other features have been removed, such as branding, the lanyard holes, complex fillets and chamfers, the textured external finish, and the ability to remove the buttons, which result in no way to swap button colors. Fortunately, the buttons are still clicky when printed with TPU 95A. This is a big feat, as many phone cases with integrated buttons are not clicky. The “lite” version also is less protective overall, it uses less material and doesn't have as large of, nor the same structure core as the original case. This may all sound like I want to upsell y'all (which would be great) but my intentions are to give y'all the best starting point with the best chances at printing consistently with minimal issues. I have included the STEP file for those that are savvy enough to come up with their own modifications or those who want to modify the design to fit other cases (I have designed cases for all iPhones from the 12 and up, but don't want to flood Maker World with designs for each one)… I suggest going to Apple's website and calculating the difference between the dimensions of the iPhone 16 and whatever iPhone you want to modify this to fit. If this post gets a lot of attention I will consider uploading “lite” versions of all case dimensions. Who knows? Maybe, in the near future 3d printing tech gets even more reliable and I can upload all my fully featured designs where they can be made, reliably and consistent in quality on even the most affordable printers.  

My bumper case designs help you show off the beautiful backs of your iPhone while still remaining ultra protective for day to day use (the fully featured ones have withheld multiple military grade drop and shock tests). These bumper cases have been designed to make the daily use of a MagSafe wallet more comfortable, as it recesses the wallet. They also give you access to the original mag safe components and can fit with many other accessories, such as many 5k mAh wireless portable chargers, like the Anker MagGo 5k. Bumper cases in general can also help with heat dissipation, which is especially useful for those that may do video or photography work, those that use their phone while flying drones, or even those that might just be cell phone gamers and Pokémon Go fans that deal with heat related degradation.

Let's bring back the bumper!
