iPhone 16 Pro Max's screen protector keeps cracking

Because the cases don’t go along the side near the screen protector by the camera button, my screen protector keeps cracking every few days. Is there a case that actually will protect that side?

I put a tempered glass screen protector on my brand new Pro Max 16 and it cracked at the camera button spot within two days despite not dropping it. So I bought more screen protectors and after putting it on with the actual included black outline setting piece to keep the protector straight, I haven’t had a problem. It hasn’t cracked since. For reference, here is the case I’m currently using, and the protectors I bought. (Otterbox defender series; New’C screen protectors)
