Apple has unveiled a deeper look at its new [iPhone 16s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iphone-16s-concept) and [Spigen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leather-iphone-case1) responds with more protective cases with a spotlight on the Classic C1. Many of their products are compatible with MagFit ecosystems and keep the phones secure and charging to boast various functions at once.

The Classic C1 leads the range as it is designed with a retro aesthetic inspired by the iconic [iMac G3](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/c1-magfit). It is priced at $59.99 and nods to one of the most captivating computers in history. Similar to the original design, the cases reflect the candy-like color palette. It comes in four color options starting with tangerine, followed by Bondi blue, graphite, and ruby. All of these are made from two-piece PC and TPU.
