Phone Case Buying Guide: How to Choose the Right Case

Step 1: Find your exact phone model

Check Settings > About (or the model number on the box) to confirm your exact phone - for example "iPhone 14 Pro" not just "iPhone 14", or "Galaxy S23" not just "Galaxy S". Case fit is model-specific, especially for camera cut-outs and button placement.

Step 2: Decide how much protection you need

• Everyday use: a clear case is slim and shows off your phone.
• Butterfingers or an active lifestyle: choose a rugged case with reinforced corners.
• You want your cards with you: a wallet case or leather case replaces your wallet.
• You use MagSafe accessories: pick a MagSafe case.
• You want something nobody else has: go personalised.

Step 3: Check wireless charging

Slim clear, silicone and MagSafe cases all work with wireless charging. Thick wallet cases with a metal card clip can block it.

Step 4: Add a screen protector

A case protects the back and sides - pair it with a tempered glass screen protector for full front protection.
