The iPhone 14 lineup has been available for some time now, but getting hold of a new device is still exciting. The iPhone 14’s 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR display is stunning to behold, with up to 512GB of storage and powered by the speedy A15 Bionic chip. To keep your device safe, it’s important to have a good case. There are many options available, but some cases are better than others. Here are some of our top picks for iPhone 14 cases that you can buy in 2024.
Smartish Wallet Slayer Case
The best wallet iPhone 14 case
- Handy card slot holds three cards plus cash
- Card compartment folds out as kickstand
- Air pocket corners for drop protection
- Choice of four designs
- Not compatible with MagSafe and wireless chargers
Want to leave your wallet at home, but don't want a traditional folding leather wallet case? The Wallet Slayer from Smartish has you covered. This sleek case comes in solid black (Black Tie) or a choice of three colorful designs. On the rear there's a handy card slot that stores up to three cards and cash — as a bonus, it folds out into a kickstand for hands-free viewing and video calls. Protective air pocket corners act like mini airbags for your phone, cushioning it from drops and bumps, and grippy sides keep your phone firmly in hand. True, it's not compatible with MagSafe or wireless chargers, but if that doesn't bother you, this case is an excellent choice.
Incipio Duo Case
The best dual-layer iPhone 14 case
- Up to 12 feet of drop protection
- Soft-touch, smudge-resistant finish
- Antimicrobial treatment
- Minimalist design might not be for everyone
Incipio's Duo Case is a must if you want serious drop protection for your iPhone 14. This two-piece case gives you maximum protection in a minimalist style. The soft-touch finish feels great in your hand while providing smudge resistance, and the slim design also means this case is compatible with wireless and MagSafe charging. Innovative Impact Struts technology provides up to 12 feet of drop protection, the case is scratch- and discoloration-resistant, and an antimicrobial treatment prevents 99.9% of surface bacteria. The icing on the cake is Incipio's lifetime warranty. You can pick this case up in clear or a choice of colors including black, Midnight Navy, Tradewinds Gray, or Scarlet Red.
Mujjo Full Leather Wallet Case
The best leather iPhone 14 case
- Eco-friendly, vegetable-tanned leather
- Super-slim, pocket-friendly profile
- Tonal metal side buttons
- Wallet pocket stores up to three cards
- Super-slim profile may not provide as much drop protection as other cases
Mujjo's Leather Wallet Case is a must if you want a stylish, practical, eco-friendly case. The wallet pocket stores up to three cards, and the case is made from vegetable-tanned, eco-friendly leather that's gold-rated for its low environmental impact. Each super-slim case is lined with Japanese microfiber for security and insulation and has a rich color and durable finish that will develop a gorgeous patina, becoming more beautiful with age. A 1mm raised leather bezel and raised camera bump protect your screen and camera from scratches, while redesigned side buttons in tonal metal are pleasingly clicky and responsive. This case also includes MagSafe for fast wireless charging. Grab it in your choice of three colors: tan, black, or Monaco Blue.
Totallee Ultra-Thin Case
The best minimalistic iPhone 14 case
- Slim, minimalist design
- Choice of four transparent colors or frosted clear
- Raised lip protects screen and camera
- Not the most rugged drop protection
The iPhone is a pretty sleek device, so why would you want to add extra bulk with a case? With Totallee's Super-Thin case, you don't need to. This case is just 0.33 inches thick and made from soft, grippy TPU that absorbs shock. Its slim, minimalist design is ideal for those who just want to protect their phone without branding or intricate designs, and it comes in a choice of four transparent colors or a frosted clear option. There's a raised lip around the screen and camera to keep them safe, and it'll protect from minor drops (from around waist height), though you'll want to pair it with a screen protector for the best protection.
SUPCASE Unicorn Beetle Pro Case
The best drop protection iPhone 14 case
- Includes a screen protector
- Offers a kickstand
- Also has a belt-clip
- Bulky design
If you're someone who is always on the go, then you know how important it is to have a reliable phone case that can withstand the wear and tear of everyday life. The Supcase Unicorn Beetle Pro Case is an excellent choice for anyone looking for a rugged case to protect their iPhone 14. This case is designed to provide full-body protection for your phone, so you can rest easy knowing that your device is safe from accidental drops, bumps, and scratches.
The case is made of a combination of shock-absorbing TPU and unbending polycarbonate, which work together to provide superior protection for your phone. Additionally, the case has a built-in screen protector that will keep your phone's display looking great, even after years of use.
Nomad Modern Leather Case
The best professional iPhone 14 case
- Made from genuine raw, vegetable-tanned Horween leather
- Up to 10 feet of drop protection
- MagSafe compatible
- Choice of two colors
- You'll need a separate screen protector
A leather case is a classic that will never go out of style. This one from Nomad offers up to 10 feet of drop protection packed into a sleek, ultra-thin yet rugged case. Made from genuine raw, vegetable-tanned Horween leather from one of America's oldest tanneries, it will develop a beautiful patina over time that's totally unique to each case. Raised edges provide additional screen protection, and this case is MagSafe compatible too. You'll definitely need to invest in a separate screen protector, though. Pick up this case in black or brown leather.
Apple Silicone Case with MagSafe
The best official iPhone 14 case
- Silky-soft silicone case
- Wide choice of vibrant colors
- Soft microfiber lining
- Built-in MagSafe compatibility
- Not the cheapest option out there
Apple's Silicone Case is ideal if you're craving the complete Apple experience for your new iPhone 14. This silky-soft silicone case comes in a wide array of eight colors, but we like the Lilac option, a gorgeous match for the purple iPhone 14. A soft microfiber lining cushions your phone against scratches and scuffs, while built-in magnets mean you can use the case with your choice of MagSafe accessories. It's not the cheapest case around, but it's far from the most expensive, either.
Mous Limitless 5.0 MagSafe Compatible Case
The best unique iPhone 14 case
- Built-in magnets for MagSafe compatibility
- Choice of stylish backplates in wood, leather, pearl, or fabric finishes
- Ripple grip ribs reduce the risk of drops
- AiroShock technology for protection if you do drop your phone
- Not the most colorful designs
If you like your cases like your phones — sleek, stylish, and considered — then the Limitless 5.0 case from Mous will check all your boxes. This stylish case comes with a choice of refined backplates. We love the Walnut version, pictured, but it also comes in lighter bamboo wood, or you can choose between Aramid Fiber, black leather, Silver Pearl, or a speckled black and white fabric. Under the hood, there's some serious protection happening, with impact-absorbing AiroShock technology, ultra-rigid materials, a microfiber lining to shield against scratches, and a high-defense camera bump, plus a lip around the screen for added protection. The rippled grip ridges give serious grip, reducing the risk of you dropping your phone, and a ring of N45 neodymium magnets ensures this case is compatible with your choice of MagSafe accessories.
Speck Presidio2 Grip Case
The best grip iPhone 14 case
- Up to 13 feet of drop protection
- Microban antimicrobial protection
- Armor Cloud Technology acts like an airbag for your phone
- Nonslip inverted grips
- Not as grippy as some other Speck cases
The best way to protect against drops is to prevent them from happening. Speck's Presidio2 Grip Case aims to do just that, with nonslip inverted grips and a soft-touch finish to keep your phone firmly in hand. If you do happen to drop your phone, don't stress! This case protects against drops of up to 13 feet with Armor Cloud Technology. The perimeter of the case is lined with tiny air capsules that act like an airbag, compressing on impact to provide a cushion of air for your phone. There's in-built Microban antimicrobial protection, which provides up to a 99% reduction in stain- and odor-causing bacteria on the surface of your case, and a raised bezel around the screen prevents it from shattering or scratching if your phone lands face down. This case comes in a choice of five multi-tonal colors and offers a precise fit for your iPhone 14, with ultra-responsive buttons. Some reviews have mentioned that it's not as grippy as some other Speck cases, though.
Spigen Tough Armor MagFit Case
The best kickstand iPhone 14 case
- Tough multilayered protection
- MagSafe compatible
- Fold-out kickstand
- Colors aren't the most exciting
Tough on your phone? Then you'll want a case that withstands it all. Spigen's Tough Armor Case to the rescue! This case provides a multilayered defense against drops and dings thanks to its tough PC and TPU construction. There's a fold-out kickstand for hands-free calls or viewing, plus built-in MagSafe compatibility, and it comes in a choice of three colors. Buy it right now from Spigen and you'll even get a free screen protector thrown in (this promotion was active at the time of writing). If we had anything negative to say, it's that the colors on offer are a little basic, but that's no bad thing if you care more about rugged protection than a colorful case.
Otterbox Commuter Series Case
The best durable iPhone 14 case
- Dual-layer polycarbonate and synthetic rubber case
- MagSafe and Qi charging compatible
- Made with 35% recycled plastic
- Excellent drop protection
- May not work with wireless charging pads
No list of cases is complete without an entry from Otterbox, a brand we trust for its protective phone cases. Our pick of the bunch for your iPhone 14 is the Commuter Series Case, which comes in four imaginatively-named colors, including Trees Company, a deep green that's our pick of the bunch, Into the Fuchsia (pink), Don't be Blue, and black. Designed for life on the go, this case offers dual-layer defense with a PC shell and synthetic rubber slipcover for added grip. Port covers keep out dust and dirt while the slim, pocket-friendly profile makes it easy to slide your phone into a pocket. This case is compatible with both Qi charging and MagSafe charging (though there are no magnets) and protects against three times as many drops as the military standard. It's an eco-friendly choice, too, as it's made with 35% recycled plastic.
Ghostek Atomic Slim 4 Prismatic Aluminium MagSafe Case
The best heavy-duty iPhone 14 case
- Slim, lightweight, military-grade alloy frame
- Raised edges around the screen and camera
- Charging port cover keeps dust, dirt, and water out
- MagSafe compatible
- Only available in one colorway
What's slim and light yet offers surprisingly durable protection for your new iPhone? The Atomic Slim 4 Prismatic Aluminum MagSafe Case from Ghostek. This shock- and scratch-resistant case has a hybrid dual-layer construction, with a lightweight military-grade alloy frame, raised edges around the screen and camera to stop them from touching down, and a silicone charging port cover that keeps out dust, dirt, and water. The only negative? It's currently only available in one colorway, which may not be to all tastes.

The best clear iPhone 14 case
- Clear case with added sparkle

- Up to 12 feet of drop protection
- MagSafe compatible
- Not the easiest to remove
Want to show off your new iPhone but find clear cases a bit boring? This sparkle case from Tech21 has you covered. It boasts anti-yellowing technology and an exclusive sparkle effect that glitters and sparkles when it catches the light. It's more than just a pretty case, though, with up to 12 feet of drop protection and advanced antimicrobial protection built in. There's also a raised bezel around the camera to keep it safe from harm and superb scratch resistance so your case — and your phone — stay looking as good as new.
Case-Mate Blox The Square Case
The best unusual iPhone 14 case
- Unusual contemporary square case
- Up to 10 feet of drop protection
- Built-in magnets for MagSafe compatibility
- Wide range of colors to choose from
- Square corners might not be to all tastes
The iPhone 14 already stands out in a sea of competition, but if you want to stand out even more, this is the case for you. Unlike most rounded-edged cases, the Blox case is a square case that boasts a stylish, contemporary vibe. On offer is up to 10 feet of drop protection, with a raised edge around the camera and screen. There are flexible sides for added grip, and the materials used in the construction of this case are designed to resist scratches and prevent yellowing. There are also built-in magnets, so this case is compatible with all MagSafe chargers and accessories. It's crafted using standard certified recycled content, too, so it's a sustainable choice as well as a beautiful one. Pick it up in a range of cool colors, including black, clear, Matte Clay (a terracotta pink), Neon Lemon, Neon Watermelon, Rainbow Frosting (clear with iridescence), or — our pick — Gilded Age, a luscious gold.
OtterBox OtterGrip Symmetry Series Case
The best ergonomic iPhone 14 case
- Slim profile
- Integrated adjustable phone grip
- Grip folds flat for wireless charging compatibility
- Colorful designs
- MagSafe compatible
- Limited colors and designs
The OtterBox OtterGrip Symmetry Series is a unique case that has an integrated phone grip built right in. Like the other Symmetry Series cases, this one has a slim profile, so it's not too bulky, and it's easy to get on and off when needed. The buttons are clicky and tactile, and the cutouts are precise. But the real magic is with the phone grip, which is integrated directly on the back of the case and folds flat when not in use. When you pull it out, it has a full 360-degree range of motion so you can find the perfect angle for your fingers, and the stretchy material lets you adjust it to fit one or two fingers as necessary for a comfortable grip. And because the grip is flat when not in use, this case lets you charge wirelessly without taking the case off. It's also fully MagSafe compatible.
I used it with the iPhone 14 Pro, but it is available for all iPhone 14 models.
OtterBox Symmetry Series+ Disney Princess Case
The best Disney iPhone 14 case
- Slim profile
- Tactile buttons and precise cutouts
- Durable and tough protection
- Cute design with Disney princesses
- MagSafe compatible
- Not all Disney Princesses featured
OtterBox's Symmetry Series cases are some of its best. These feature a slim profile that is not too bulky but still offers that trusted OtterBox protection. The cutouts are precise, and the buttons are nice and clicky when pressed — giving users great tactile feedback.
This particular collection features five of Disney's most beloved princesses: Ariel, Belle, Cinderella, Jasmine, and Tiana. Each case has a decorative pattern on the back that is themed for the princess, along with an inspirational quote and a large image of the princess herself. The best part? These cases are all fully MagSafe compatible, which is rare with OtterBox's Disney cases.
PopSockets iPhone 14 Case with Phone Grip and MagSafe
The best PopSocket iPhone 14 case
- Comes with PopSockets Slide Phone Grip
- Beautiful colors
- Tough and durable protection
- MagSafe compatible
- Compatible with PopSockets accessories
- PopSockets branding around camera
Love PopSockets? Then you should check out the company's phone cases! The PopSockets phone case comes with a PopGrip Slide grip that you can easily reposition on the case by sliding it up and down. It also has a MagSafe ring, so you can use all of your MagSafe accessories with it, and it's compatible with the PopSocket ecosystem of accessories. And best of all is that the PopGrip that comes with it is swappable, so you can easily swap out the PopGrip with any other swappable PopTop (there are tons to choose from).
The case itself is tough and durable, with tactile clicky buttons and precise cutouts. The colors are also very pretty, and you can find more designs on the PopSocket website. The only negative is the little PopSockets branding tag near the camera cutout.

Another great brand of phone case is Sonix. There are a lot of designs to choose from, especially directly on its website, and there are even collaborations with brands like Sanrio. But its original designs are also bold and vibrant, which are sure to turn heads when you're out.
