There are frequent collaborations with other brands like Disney and Star Wars, so you can get exclusive designs that match your interests.

The Symmetry Series cases are also much slimmer than the Defenders but offer the same military-grade protection that OtterBox is known for.

Best cute iPhone 14 Pro case

Velvet Caviar has some of the best stylish cases around. The brand is always coming out with new designs on a regular basis, so if you don't see one you like right now, make sure to keep checking! Some designs are also limited, so if they run out of stock, they may not return — snag them while you can! Most of the designs do lean more feminine, though, so if that's not your thing, then you might want to keep looking. There are some solid colors too, however.

With a Velvet Caviar case, your iPhone 14 Pro will be safe and sound with 8-foot drop-tested protection. They also have a relatively slim profile so there's no bulk, and the tactile buttons feel nice to press. The case also has MagSafe compatibility for your favorite accessories.

Speck Presidio Grip 2 iPhone 14 Pro Case

Best grip iPhone 14 Pro case

Speck has been in the case game for a long time, and the Presidio Grip 2 is one of the best. A previous problem with the Grip cases was that the rubber would get worn out easily since it protruded from the case. Speck redesigned the grips, and they now go inward instead, so there is no rubber that will get worn out and peel. The unique concave grip actually does work — it's one of the grippiest cases I've used in the past, making it hard to drop.

The Presidio Grip 2 is also very protective overall, and it doesn't have a bulky profile. It's slim, lightweight, and comes in several fun colors to choose from. You also get precise cutouts, tactile clicky buttons, and MagSafe.

Casetify Bounce iPhone 14 Pro Case

Best drop protection iPhone 14 Pro case

Casetify is one of our favorite case makers, as it has several different styles for varying levels of protection. One of the most protective is the Bounce case, which has four rugged bumper corners that help mitigate impact from drops of up to 21 feet. The 6x military grade drop protection makes sure that nothing will happen with your iPhone 14 Pro, no matter the situation.

The Bounce case also comes in some bold and vivid hues, including this beautiful cotton candy color. But be warned — this incredible protection does not come cheap.
