21 Best iPhone 14 Cases and Accessories (2023): MagSafe-Tested, Chargers, and

We get a lot of cases sent our way. Some of them are perfectly fine but not remarkable in our eyes, but cases can be subjective. You might like them.

Carved MagSafe Cases for $59: Epoxy resin is having a bit of a moment. (My YouTube is filled with ways to convert a coffee table into a beautiful epoxy resin table.) These cases are beautiful, and there are so many fun designs to choose from. The buttons are excellent, the cutouts are all accurate, and the mute switch is easy to access. The sides are grippy, and you get a nice microfiber inner. No complaints here!

PopSockets Plant-Based Case for MagSafe for $50: Made from plant-based materials, the case itself is nice, with clicky buttons. I like that the PopSockets grip is not integrated. You can slide it off when you don’t need to use it, like when you want to take advantage of MagSafe charging. The grip doubles as a kickstand, but only in landscape orientation. If you already have a PopSockets case or grip, you can swap out the grip for the new plant-based one.

Caudabe Sheath MagSafe Case for $38: Caudabe’s Sheath was my absolute favorite case for the iPhone 13, and while I’m not as enamored with it now, it’s still excellent. The rear texture is the hallmark, featuring a canvas-like quality that feels nice to run your fingers over. The buttons work well, and the case’s edges are raised just enough to protect the screen and camera module. It’s quite thin and looks simple, which is great if you’re going for a minimalist aesthetic.

OtterBox Ottergrip Symmetry Series for MagSafe for $60: This case has a pretty smart grip system that sits flush with the back of your case and doesn’t interrupt MagSafe capabilities. Unlike many other grips, however, you can’t use it as a kickstand, which feels like a missed opportunity. You need two hands to pull the grip out of the back. I also found the mute switch a little hard to access.

OtterBox Aneu Series MagSafe Case for $50: These cases are perfectly fine, if a little dull. The material on the back feels as though it will show scuffs over time. It offers a good MagSafe connection, and the buttons are clicky.

Catalyst Influence MagSafe Case for $34: I tried several Catalyst cases and landed on this one as my favorite. It has the tried-and-true patented mute switch button, which lets you rotate a wheel to toggle silence on or off—much nicer than digging through a tiny hole in the case to flip the switch. The buttons are clicky, the MagSafe connection is solid, and there’s a nice texture on the back that doesn’t show smudges. You get a lanyard to tote the phone around your arm. Catalyst is known for its waterproof cases, and I also tested and liked its Total Protection Case ($90), which is good for up to 33 feet underwater. I did not see any droplets of water on my iPhone after I submerged it for some time. However, the buttons are a bit hard to press, and there’s no MagSafe.

Casetify The Push-In Case for $52: I thought I had seen it all with cases, but this one surprised me. It’s so smart! You can customize your case by adding tiny, cute pins to the pits. The Push-In Pin sets are really cute too. Unfortunately, the case attracts a lot of dust and lint, even if it is fabulously soft. It’s also really thick, and this whole thing will be heavy to carry around. There’s no MagSafe support. Not very practical.

Mous Limitless 5.0 MagSafe Walnut Case for $60: If you want a wood case, this one from Mous will satisfy you. The magnets are strong, it looks attractive, and the thick bumper feels rigid. There’s even a spot to hook up a lanyard. Not much to complain about here!

Moft Snap MagSafe Case for $40: I recommend snagging this in black or clear because the white color option shows the faint outline of the MagSafe ring and doesn’t look good. Otherwise, the buttons are easy to press, the mute switch is accessible, and Moft has strengthened the magnets here—I can attest that it’s certainly harder to pry some MagSafe accessories off of it. I just don’t find it all that fun to look at or pleasant to the touch.

Ampere Biodegradable MagSafe Case for $9: These cases are the definition of nondescript. They look boring and feel inoffensive (albeit slippery). I’m a little annoyed at how clearly the MagSafe ring bleeds through, which gives it a rather unfinished look. On the bright side, they’re fully compostable, and Ampere says they’ll break down completely in less than a year. The edges are raised well and the buttons are nice to press.

Smartish Gripzilla MagSafe Case for $35: Imagine you squeezed a case so hard you left your imprints on the sides. That’s pretty much what the Gripzilla case is like. The grooved edges help add some extra grip to the whole thing, as does the texture on the bumper. It’s great if you have butterfingers. The mute switch is easy to access, the buttons are clicky, the edges around the screen are raised well, and there’s MagSafe support. It checks off a lot of boxes for a pretty low price.
