While the iPhone 15 is currently Apple's latest flagship, its predecessor is still a strong device. The previous model still receives all the latest operating system updates and the company even still sells some of them. When you buy an iPhone 14 Plus, you are investing in a durable device that should last you for many years thanks to active software support and modern hardware.
However, you can't expect that iPhone to serve you for that long if you don't properly care for and protect its exterior, which is why we recommend protecting your iPhone 14 Plus with one of the excellent protective cases listed below.

Our favorite cases for the iPhone 14 Plus
As you can see, there are a lot of great cases for the iPhone 14 Plus. Many of us at XDA personally use the Spigen Thin Fit and we appreciate it for its lightweight features. It's the perfect case for people who find the size of the iPhone 14 Plus a bit overwhelming and don't want to add any weight to it. The Rugged Armor variant, meanwhile, offers more protection without going overboard.
Overall, though, the Caseology case is our top pick. That's because it considers both form and functionality, and it's also compatible with MagSafe accessories. You get a stylish product that offers both protection and doesn't hinder your iPhone's charging functionality. Ultimately, all of the cases listed here are solid choices, so which one is best for you depends on what you're looking for.
