Which is the best iPhone 15 case overall?
Now that Apple’s iPhone 15 series has hit the shelves, a whole slew of cases are now available for these highly coveted models. We put many of the new cases or earlier versions for earlier iPhones, to the test. Labeling one case a clear winner is tough, but the new Otterbox Symmetry Series Soft Touch and Figura cases are true standouts. Also noteworthy are the Speck Presidio ClickLock cases, which feature a cutting edge design that fit with Speck’s proprietary ClickLock MagSafe accessories — which «lock» onto the back of your phone — and work well with other MagSafe accessories, as well.
A person’s preference for phone cases can vary, which is why I’ve compiled a large swath of selections, from value picks for folks looking to save money on a new iPhone case, to higher-end options. New picks, including more budget cases that come in under $20, will be added once I test more cases. Apple-branded iPhone cases are always solid options, but the brand’s new more eco-friendly FineWoven case has racked up a bunch of critical reviews.
The dimensions of the iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max are slightly different from their iPhone 14 counterparts. So while we aren’t making any guarantees, it seems that many iPhone 13 and 14 cases will fit the iPhone 15 (and many iPhone 14 Plus cases should fit the iPhone 15 Plus). That said, the new iPhone 15 Pro models have replaced the mute switch with a new programmable action button. Those models require cases specifically designed for them.
Some case companies have released cases for the iPhone 15 Pro and 15 Pro Max that have a small issue with the design of their cases. This issue may affect the use of that new action button. Those companies are correcting the problem, but there may be delays shipping the new versions. If you bought a case that has a design flaw, you should contact the company and it will likely agree to exchange the case for an updated one when it comes or give you a credit.
Speck has brought many of its iPhone 14 case designs to the iPhone 15, including such popular transparent models as the Presidio Perfect-Clear and Perfect-Clear Grips, and the Presidio2 Pro. But it’s also developed a new ClickLock case system that’s built on MagSafe: It’s compatible with any MagSafe accessory but has an interlocking system that secures Speck’s ClickLock accessories to your case. In addition to adhering to the case magnetically, the accessories — which range in price from $30 to $40 — click into a little slot. It’s not so different from Peak Design’s locking system, but Speck’s cases are superior and are more MagSafe accessory friendly.
For people who own the larger and heavier iPhone 15 Plus or 15 Pro Max, it can be hard to depend on your phone staying on a MagSafe car mount, especially if you hit a bump. That’s where Speck’s ClickLock car-vent mount helps. And the wallet accessory really stays on the back of your phone — you don’t have to worry about it slipping off when you put your phone in your pocket.
All the new Speck models have good drop protection (13 to 16 feet, depending on the model) as well as Speck’s Microban antimicrobial protection. No matter which model you choose, Speck often gives a discount for first-time buyers purchasing through its website.
Pros:
- ClickLock system enables secure fit for Speck accessories
- Good protection in an attractive design
- Antimicrobial protection
- Speck offers discounts for first-time buyers
Cons:
- Somewhat pricey
New Otterbox cases
Otterbox Symmetry Series Soft Touch
Otterbox has brought its expansive line of cases to the iPhone 15. That includes everything from the tough Defender Series XT to the colorful Figura to the Symmetry Series Clear and OtterGrip Symmetry Series.
Making its debut is the new Symmetry Series Soft Touch for MagSafe, which comes in yellow, pink and black at launch and has a nice, grippy soft-to-the-touch finish that’s similar to what you get with the highly likable Core Series cases Otterbox made for the iPhone 14. The Figura Series has a similar soft touch finish with a more artsy design.
Pros:
- Easy to grip and comfortable in hand
- MagSafe compatible
- Durable
- Made from 50% recycled material
Cons:
- Limited color options available
- A little pricey
Affordable case with built-in kickstand and MagSafe
ESR Silicone Kickstand case
The ESR Kickstand case isn’t your typical silicone case with an integrated kickstand. That’s because the kickstand doesn’t flip out of the backside of the case at the bottom. Instead, it serves as a protective ring around your camera lenses when it’s retracted and not in use. Note that you can also get the case in a clear version, and ESR also sells a variety of MagSafe accessories for decent prices.
Pros:
- Soft, grippy finish
- Comes with a built-in kickstand
- Kickstand doubles as lens protector
- Well-priced
Cons:
- Portrait mode with kickstand is not so vertical
Best cheap MagSafe case for iPhone 15
Spigen Ultra Hybrid MagFit
MagSafe cases can get pretty pricey, but if you’re looking for an inexpensive clear MagSafe case for your new iPhone 15 series phone, Spigen’s Ultra Hybrid MagFit is a good value at around $20.
Pros:
- MagSafe compatibility for less
- Multiple color options and styles
- Tactile, easy-to-press buttons
Cons:
- The clear option may yellow over time despite having UV protection
- Not super protective
Best variety of kickstand-style cases
Torras cases
Torras makes several cases with integrated kickstands, but they each have their own style of stand. They include the Lstand (pictured left) that has a retractable kickstand ring around the camera, the Pstand (pictured right) that has a flip-out kickstand on the bottom of the case, and the Ostand (not pictured) that has a retractable ring around the MagSafe ring.
Aside from the clear versions of the cases, which feature a hard plastic design, most of the other versions have a soft-touch finish that offers good grip. MagSafe accessories adhered securely to the cases and they also feature good drop protection.
Pros:
- 3 integrated kickstand styles to choose from
- Soft-touch finish (except for clear cases)
- MagSafe compatible
- Decent drop protection
Cons:
- Hard to choose which kickstand option is the best
Under $25 iPhone 15 MagSafe case with kickstand
Caseology Capella Mag Kick Stand
Caseology makes some decent budget cases, including the NanoPop, Parallax, Skyfall and Vault. Its new Capella Mag Kickstand is one of the cheaper transparent MagSafe cases we’ve seen — and it’s got a built-in kickstand that retracts into the case when not in use so you can attach MagSafe accessories.
Pros:
- Budget-friendly
- Slim design
- MagSafe compatible
- Built-in kickstand
Cons:
- Clear option may yellow over time (though it has UV protection)
- Not super protective
Neon cases with some real color pop
Cyrill UltraSheer Mag
Cyrill is a sister brand to Spigen, and its cases are arguably slightly more stylish, though they cost a few bucks more, too. I like the new UltraSheer Mag that comes in a few bright color options, including neon yellow, pink and blue.
Pros:
- More stylish than Spigen cases
- Eye-popping colors
- Reinforced curved bumpers
- MagSafe compatible
Cons:
- Cost a little more than Spigen cases
Slim, stylish, protective iPhone 15 case
Zagg cases
A few years back Zagg bought British case-maker Gear4 and continued selling Gear4 cases under the original brand name. With the introduction of the iPhone 15, Gear4 cases have officially become Zagg cases, but the quality hasn’t changed — they’re right up there with OtterBox and Speck, all of them featuring beveled edges to protect your phone and now infused with graphene for extra durability. I like the new Milan Snap in iridescent (pictured left top) and Santa Cruz Snap with built-in kickstand (pictured center top in black), both of which are MagSafe-equipped and rated for 13-foot drop protection. However, several other case styles are available, most of them with eye-catching designs.
Pros:
- Fairly slim yet highly protective
- Several styles available
- Very good drop protection
- MagSafe compatible
Cons:
- Somewhat pricey
Top tough iPhone 15 cases
Urban Armor Gear
Urban Armor Gear, known for its highly protective cases, offers a variety of options for the iPhone 15 models in several color options. The toughest and most expensive case is the Monarch Pro with Kevlar, but I still like the Plasma (pictured middle right) and clear Plyo with MagSafe, which probably has the slimmest design. All of UAG’s cases feature good corner protection and meet military drop-test standards. They start at $40 and go all the way up to $100, but most are in the $50 to $60 range.
Pros:
- Highly protective with good corner protection
- Distinctive design
- Most styles are MagSafe compatible
Cons:
- Monarch models are very pricey
Lanyard-friendly sleek iPhone 15 case
Catalyst Influence case
Like Lifeproof, Catalyst made a name for itself with waterproof cases, but it now focuses on standard protective case options and currently offers one case for the iPhone 15: the Influence. It comes in MagSafe and non-MagSafe versions in a few color options. Rated for 10-foot drop protection, the Influence has perforations on the corners that allow you to attach various accessories (a lanyard is included, but Catalyst also sells other accessories).
Pros:
- Clean look
- Lanyard-friendly
- Good drop protection
- MagSafe compatible
Cons:
- Somewhat pricey
Swanky leather iPhone 15 cases
Nomad cases
Apple has said it won’t make leather cases for the iPhone 15, but others, including Nomad, still are. Nomad’s line of leather cases for the iPhone 15 once again come in two grades of leather: the standard variety and a higher-end Horween that costs $20 more ($70 rather than $50). At least the Horween version is designed to develop a «rugged» patina as the oils from your skin interact with the leather over time. The Modern Leather Case is available in black, brown, English tan and a lighter natural color that I like. They’re rated for 10-foot (3-meter) drop protection and equipped with MagSafe. Meanwhile, the Modern Leather Folio goes for $80 in black or brown (the one drawback to the Folio case is that it doesn’t convert into a kickstand like some wallet cases do).
There’s also a more affordable Sport version for $50 that’s equipped with MagSafe as well. It’s not a leather case, however, but does look pretty slick — it’s pictured on the right. Additionally, Nomad has a new Rugged Case with «fortified» bumpers and 15-foot drop protection that costs $60 with MagSafe.
Pros:
- Trusted brand for leather cases
- Cases available at multiple price points
Cons:
- MagSafe options are more expensive
- A leather patina look might not be for everyone
Best tough mounting case for iPhone 15
Rokform
Rokform’s been making tough iPhone cases for years, and aside from their durability, their key feature is the ability to use them with various mounts, including bike and motorcycle mounts, that are sold separately. The design of its new iPhone 15 cases — I personally prefer the Crystal series, but the Rugged case is slightly more, well, rugged — has been «refined and updated» (I like the updates) and the cases feature arguably the strongest magnets for MagSafe accessories (the accessories really stick to the case).
Rokform’s iPhone 15 cases have removable magnets, and they’re compatible with wireless charging if you remove the included center magnet. «With the lower magnet still intact, you can still wireless-charge while utilizing magnetic mounting and all of our mounts,» Rokform says.
Pros:
- Highly protective and durable
- Great for mounting
- Very strong MagSafe compatible magnets
Cons:
- Mounts sold separately
- Pricey
Well-designed iPhone 15 leather cases
Mujjo cases
Mujjo has been making attractive vegetable-tanned leather cases for the iPhone for a while and its cases for the iPhone 15 include its standard Leather Case with MagSafe, a Leather Wallet Case with MagSafe (pictured left) and its tougher Shield case with MagSafe (pictured right). They cost $50 to $60, though sometimes you can find them on sale for less on Amazon.
Note that the Leather Wallet Case with MagSafe is convenient because it has the slim wallet integrated into the case (it fits up to three credit cards) but also offers MagSafe compatibility. While I was able to charge wirelessly with MagSafe and attach a magnetic battery to the back of the case (with no credit cards in the wallet), I can’t say magnetic accessories will stick to it as securely as some MagSafe cases on this list. But it is one of the few cases with a built-in wallet to feature MagSafe compatibility. The Leather Wallet also comes in a version without MagSafe, so make sure you’re buying the one with MagSafe if that’s what you’re looking for.
Pros:
- Clean look
- Vegetable-tanned leather
- Slim but relatively protective with raised edges
- Wallet Case is MagSafe-compatible
Cons:
- MagSafe accessories don’t stick that securely to Wallet Case
Best assortment of iPhone 15 case options
Incipio cases
Much of Incipio’s case lineup for the iPhone 14 returns for the iPhone 15. These include old favorites like the Grip with MagSafe, sturdy Duo with MagSafe (12-foot drop protection) and AeroGrip with MagSafe.
I like the new Cru case in faux leather pictured left (it also comes in a canvass material but I prefer the faux leather). Another favorite: the Forme, which comes in some cool designs, two of which are pictured here (middle and right). Incipio cases start at $35 for a non-MagSafe case and $45, $50 or more for cases with MagSafe.
Pros:
- Fairly slim yet highly protective
- Several eye-catching styles available
- Very good drop protection
- MagSafe compatible
Cons:
- Somewhat pricey
Best case with crossbody strap
SwitchEasy Roam M + Strap
I haven’t tried SwitchEasy cases for a few generations of iPhones, but got a chance to test a few of its new cases for the iPhone 15 that come with a crossbody strap, including the Roam + Strap (pictured: 16-foot drop protection) and Odyssey Ultra M + Strap. Both feature feature excellent drop protection, but the Odyssey Ultra has even more elevated corner protection. They’re both available in a few color options.
Note that you don’t have to use the cases with the strap. The eyelets are removable. Just don’t lose them if you want to use the strap in future.
Pros:
- Crossbody strap included
- Eyelets for strap can be removed (don’t have to use strap)
- Very good drop protection
- MagSafe compatible
Cons:
- Somewhat pricey
Affordable iPhone 15 wallet case
Smartish cases
Smartish’s affordable, simple, slim cases and wallet cases return for the iPhone 15. The Wallet Slayer Vol. 2 case (pictured) comes in a few different designs beyond the basic black shown here. It holds three credit cards plus cash, and you can use one of your credit cards as a kickstand. However, its one downside is that it’s not compatible with wireless and MagSafe chargers.
Smartish also sells a MagSafe case called the Gripmunk. It’s one of the most affordable MagSafe cases (around $20) and is easy to grip, as its name implies.
Pros:
- Budget-friendly
- Innovative kickstand design
- Groovy colors
Cons:
- No MagSafe on The Wallet Slayer Vol. 1 or Vol. 2
- Faux-leather options look a little cheap
New tough iPhone 15 cases
Clckr cases
Clckr makes some nifty MagSafe accessories for iPhones, including the excellent Stand & Grip (shown in photo but must be purchased separately for $30). The company has partnered with G-Form, known for its protective sports gear, to make some new iPhone 15 cases with good drop protection. The Onyx (13-foot drop protection) has the most eye-catching design but the the Force case is the most protective, with 16-foot drop protection. Clckr MagSafe cases start at $50 for the clear Diamond case with MagSafe while the Onyx, Force and Carbon cost $60.
Pros:
- Protective and durable
- Good drop protection
- Multiple styles
Cons:
- Fairly pricey
- No built-in stand and grip like previous Clckr cases
Best slim aramid fiber case
Pitaka MagEZ Case 4
Pitaka cases are very thin yet offer a little more protection than some other very slim cases. That’s because they’re made from «selected 600D aramid fiber, which is widely used in aerospace and military applications,» according to Pitaka. And unlike carbon fiber, «this fine-weaved case will not interfere with the signal and it is non-conductive, offering long-lasting protection for your phone, and preventing color fading and daily scratches.» The Pro version of the case is slightly thicker.
If you’re looking for more serious protection from drops, this probably isn’t the right case for you, particularly because it’s rather expensive (between $60 and $70). But if you’re looking for a very slim, lightweight case, you should give it some consideration. It does come in a few different designs, some a little more eye-catching than others. All the cases are MagSafe-enabled using Pitaka’s MagSafe SlimBoard technology.
Pros:
- Very slim
- Constructed with aramid fiber
- Several designs to choose from
- MagSafe compatible
Cons:
- Pricey
- Don’t offer great drop protection
Best superthin case
Totallee cases
Some people prefer not to have a case on their phone or just want something that’s very thin that offers minimal protection. If you’re that type of person, a Totallee case may just be what you’re looking for.
There are a couple of models to choose from, with the Minimal case (pictured left) billed as the world’s thinnest iPhone case — it’s almost paper-thin. It comes in multiple color options.
The case costs $29, which seems like a lot considering how thin it is, but it is eco-friendly (it’s compostable) and does have a raised «lip» around the camera that prevents damage to the camera lens, Totallee says.
Totallee also makes a very slim clear TPU case, the «clear soft» (pictured right) that offers a little more protection for the same price. I like that one better, but it is slightly thicker.
Pros:
- Sleek and thin
- Multiple color options
- MagSafe works because it’s so thin
Cons:
- Limited protection with thinnest case
- Expensive for what you get
MagSafe-compatible iPhone case with its own accessory ecosystem
Peak Design Everyday cases
Peak Design’s Everyday cases are MagSafe-compatible in that you can connect a MagSafe wireless charging puck and other magnetic MagSafe-compatible accessories to the case, including wireless charging batteries, wallets and more. But they have Peak Design’s own built-in magnetic locking system — the company calls it SlimLink — that connects to a wide assortment of Peak Design’s mobile mounts and accessories. That includes bike mounts, charging stands, tripods, car mounts and more.
Note: Peak Design has had an issue with its case design for the iPhone 15 Pro models where the cut-out for the new Action Button doesn’t allow you to easily access the button (we initially tried the case with the standard iPhone 15, which does not have the new Action Button). It now must redesign its Pro cases, with the updated versions expected to be released in November. If you have already bought a case for the iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max, contact Peak Design, which has promised to make things right for its customers.
Pros:
- Compatible with a variety of Peak Design accessories
- MagSafe compatible
- SlimLink locking system
Cons:
- Somewhat pricey
- Peak Design’s wallet accessory doesn’t lock on case
Factors to consider when buying an iPhone 15 case
MagSafe support — or not?
You can save about $8 to $10 by getting a case that doesn’t have MagSafe support (the metal ring built into the case). But I generally encourage people to spend the extra money for a MagSafe-enabled case because of the number of MagSafe accessories on the market, some of them quite useful.
Thin or thicker?
Some people like minimal cases that add little to no bulk to their iPhone, but the majority of people are looking for a case that offers good protection — or even maximum protection. I personally tell people to find a case that’s not too thick and maybe even pretty slim and that offers at least 6-foot drop protection (and good corner protection).
Do you want a clear case?
Clear cases are popular because they show off your phone (and its color). But clear cases, especially cheaper ones, can become less clear over time and slowly start to yellow. Many case makers now add UV protection to their clear cases to prevent yellowing.
How we test the best iPhone 15 case
Several of the cases on this list were previously available for the iPhone 14 models and we added them to the list based on our previous testing with the iPhone 14. Typically, we try to use the case on the phone for at least a day and make sure the buttons on the phone work properly with the case on. With some cases, we use them for several days or even weeks to see how they wear over time.
- Design: We evaluate the more superficial and cosmetic aspects of cases and consider how aesthetically pleasing they are, because people do buy cases solely for their colors and artwork.
- Durability: We look at how durable a case is, paying particular attention to corner and camera protection (raised corners on a case can help your phone survive face-down falls).
- Grip factor: We review the material the case is made of so we can talk about such factors as how grippy the phone feels in your hand and how protective the material is.
- Extra features: Some iPhone cases have extra features such as MagSafe, an integrated kickstand or grips, and, in the case of folio models, slots for storing credits cards and cash.
- Long-term testing: Though we don’t do long-term testing for most cases, we do use some of the most popular cases for longer periods to gauge how they wear over time and see how well our phone holds up during accidental drops with the case on it. That said, we don’t do formal drop tests.
- Waterproof cases: Only a few fully waterproof cases are available, but If the case is supposed to be fully waterproof, we test it by submerging it in water.
iPhone 15 case FAQ

Pope Francis’ Funeral: How to Stream Live or Watch the Replay
Here’s how to stream the pope’s funeral very early Saturday, and what you can expect to see during the service.
After a week of global mourning for Pope Francis, who died on Monday at age 88, the pope’s funeral will be celebrated on Saturday . Francis’ funeral will be held Saturday at 10 a.m. local time at St. Peter’s Square in Vatican City (which is very, very early if you’re tuning in from the US or Canada), and he will be laid to rest at the Papal Basilica of St. Mary Major in Rome.
The Vatican will be livestreaming the papal funeral and procession, though not the burial, on its YouTube channel as it happens. The funeral will also be televised live on CBS, NBC, ABC and Fox, as well as on streaming services like Disney Plus, Hulu, Peacock and Paramount Plus. Due to the time difference, it seems likely that many interested North American viewers will catch it when it’s replayed later on Saturday. Numerous networks will rebroadcast the service later that day.
If you choose to stay up, or get up early, here’s when the live broadcast of the pope’s funeral will air in your time zone in the continental US on April 26:
- ET: 4 a.m.
- CT: 3 a.m.
- MT: 2 a.m.
- PT: 1 a.m.
The papacy of Pope Francis was notable for the progressive reforms he brought to the Roman Catholic Church. He appointed more than half of the current College of Cardinals and attempted to foster more positive attitudes toward members of the LGBT community and migrants worldwide.
What to expect from the funeral
The funeral will follow many rituals, though not all traditional protocols will be followed. Most popes are buried in St. Peter’s Basilica or its grottoes, but the AP reports Francis chose the St. Mary Major Basilica to reflect his veneration of an icon of the Virgin Mary that is located there, the Salus Populi Romani (Salvation of the People of Rome).
His funeral will be less elaborate than those of other popes per his own wishes. Francis simplified papal funeral rites last year, permitting his burial outside the Vatican, and emphasizing his role as a bishop rather than as pope (the pope is also the Bishop of Rome).
Previous popes were buried in three coffins: one of cypress, one of lead and one of oak. Francis requested to be buried in a single wooden, zinc-lined coffin and not to be placed in an elevated bier as other popes were.
The coffin will be taken from St Peter’s Basilica and placed on a dais in St Peter’s Square, where Cardinal Giovanni Battista Re will lead the service. After the service, the coffin will return to St Peter’s Basilica before it is carried across the River Tiber and to the Papal Basilica of Saint Mary Major for burial. The ceremony is estimated to end around 2 p.m. local time, or four hours after it begins.
Pope Francis’ funeral Mass will be the first of nine Masses held daily at St. Peter’s until May 4. This is an ancient tradition of the Catholic Church that observes nine days of consecutive mourning. According to Vatican News, a different group of mourners will participate each day, though the Eucharistic celebrations are open to everyone.
Who will attend Pope Francis’ funeral?
Hundreds of people, including world leaders and royals, are expected to attend Pope Francis’ funeral.
US president Donald Trump confirmed on his Truth Social Platform that he and first lady Melania Trump will be at the funeral. This will be Trump’s first foreign trip in his second term. He is expected to have a seat in the third row, though the Vatican has yet to release an official seating chart. It is tradition for the first row of seats to go to Catholic royalty, and the second row to non-Catholic royals.
Prince William, who is attending on behalf of King Charles, will sit in the second row, which is reserved for non-Catholic royals. Former president Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden, devout Catholics, will also attend the funeral.
Conclave: What happens next to choose the new pope
After Pope Francis’ funeral, the cardinals of the Roman Catholic Church will vote on his successor in an assembly of cardinals known as a conclave.
There are many matters for the cardinals to settle before the conclave begins, but once it does, it can take days or even weeks to conclude. Two-thirds of the cardinals’ votes are required to elect the next pope. The conclave occurs behind closed doors and the vote tally is never made public.
Read more: Where to Watch Conclave, the Vatican Thriller About Electing a New Pope
Look for the white smoke
The ballots are burned after each round, and chemicals are added to the flames to produce black smoke if there’s no majority. When a new pope has been selected, the chemicals will be added to the flames so they produce white smoke. Crowds gather in St. Peter’s Square to watch for the results.
If you’re fascinated by the process, you can watch a dramatized version of the events in 2024 film Conclave.
In the movie, Ralph Fiennes stars as Cardinal Thomas Lawrence, who spearheads the election of the next pope while investigating rumors about potential candidates. The film is based on the 2016 novel by Robert Harris and is completely fictional — though it does represent some of the events of how actual papal conclaves take place. In March, the film won the Academy Award for best adapted screenplay.
You can stream Conclave on Amazon Prime Video, or rent it for $6 on Apple TV, Fandango at Home, YouTube or Google Play Movies.
