Adventure-proof
The Temdan Waterproof iPhone 14 Pro Max Case is IP68 waterproof certified, meaning it can be submerged up to six and a half feet for 30 minutes and stay completely dry. This makes this case perfect for outdoor water adventures. It features a tempered glass screen protector, shockproof design, and anti-collision corners for drop protection. Plus, it supports wireless charging.
iPhone Armor
The Spigen Tough Armor (MagFit) Case features a magnetic clear PC back that’s compatible with MagSafe wireless charging, full shock absorption, responsive button covers, and air cushion technology to fully protect your iPhone 14 Pro Max — as if it was wearing armor. It comes in five different colors so you can pick the one that suits your style best.
Coolest designs
This eye-catching case by i-Blason will definitely turn heads. It comes in seven awesome designs to choose from and features a sensitive to touch screen protector, a hard shell exterior made out of flexible, impact-resistant TPU, and raised camera and screen bezels for added protection.
Clear selection
We've reviewed a number of ESR cases over the years, and love their protective functionality and reasonable price points. This clear case lets that gorgeous iPhone Pro Max shine through. Reinforced corners give you extra protection.
Endless possibilities
Looking for something a bit more unique? The CASETiFY Impact Case comes in loads of patterns so you'll be sure to find one that suits you. Plus, as noted in our review of a previous model, this case offers 8.2 feet of drop protection.
Luxury wallet case
Cover your iPhone 14 Pro Max in luxurious vegetable-tanned Ecco leather that develops a gorgeous patina over time. Slip in up to three cards so you can leave your wallet at home.
Totally thin
There's thin, thinner, and then there's totallee Thin. As we noted in our review of an earlier model, this is the absolute bare minimum case for people who hate cases. It certainly provides scratch protection, but it's not for people prone to dropping their phones.
Cute and nicely priced
Doll up your iPhone with this cute floral design. But it's more than cute, it's military-grade protective. This case has reinforced corners and the included screen and camera module protectors. We reviewed a similar model GVIEWIN case and thought it a great buy.
Cool protection
We love Urban Armor Gear cases; in our reviews of other models we noticed that the cases are feather-light and yet ultra-protective, due to the sophisticated design. Not to mention that these cases look unique and cool. This one offers 12-foot drop protection as well as MagSafe compatibility.
Apple's pick
No list of the best cases would be complete without an entry from Apple. Designed by a team of Apple engineers, this soft silicone case hugs the iPhone's every curve and looks good doing it. Don't wait on your favorite color, though, as they do sometimes change with the seasons.
Nicely priced
We've reviewed quite a lot of Case-Mate cases over the years, and we appreciate the 10-foot drop protection, appealing designs, and reasonable price points. This one is clearly MagSafe-compatible, lets your iPhone color shine through, and adds some personality.
Luxurious leather
Wrap your iPhone 14 Pro Max in this high-end leather folio and leave your wallet at home. We reviewed a similar Pad & Quill Case for iPhone and loved the whole aesthetic and the way it develops a warm patina over time. This case is MagSafe compatible.
Tough but cute
Who says protection can't be cute? Velvet Caviar proves it can, and our review of an earlier model raves about the brand. The double-layered case has a soft microfiber lining and MagSafe compatibility. There are loads of trendy designs, plus you can get all kinds of matching accessories.
Something extra
It's a clear case with the MagSafe ring, but it has a bit of sparkle around the edges. Plus, for one low price you get two screen protectors included in the package. Keep that big, gorgeous screen pristine.
Simple but tough
While this looks like just a basic case, it has all of the features you need to protect your iPhone 14 Pro Max. That bumper is thick, with a raised lip around the screen and camera module. The case is relatively slim and also offers MagSafe compatibility and has antimicrobial properties. It's made from 50% recycled plastic and comes in several colors. The OtterBox Symmetry Series has it all, as we noted in our review of a previous model.

Does the iPhone 14 Pro Max need a case?
