Best iPhone 15 Pro cases in 2024

The iPhone Pro models have consistently been some of our favorites, providing great camera quality, intuitive upgrades like last year’s Dynamic Island, and increasingly gorgeous displays. And this year’s iPhone 15 Pro is no exception. It’s a capable handset powered by the new A17 chip along with, yes, the Dynamic Island and a new Action Button instead of the traditional mute toggle. That said, you’ll need a new case to protect your new phone. Unlike Pros before it, these upgrades do mean you’ll have to invest in a new case as iPhone 14 Pro cases won’t be a fit.

iPhone 15 Pro: Buy now or wait for the iPhone 16 Pro

There’s no time like the present to get a new phone, but waiting could mean missing out on great summer deals.

Still, there are plenty of budget-friendly iPhone 15 Pro cases for those of you not eager to spend even more cash on one. But honestly, it’s better to invest a few extra dollars in a case now than have to spend hundreds of dollars later to repair a broken screen from dropping your naked iPhone 15 Pro on the ground.

FAQ

Q: Will my iPhone 14 Pro case fit my iPhone 15 Pro?

No, your iPhone 14 Pro case will not fit on the iPhone 15 Pro and vice versa, mainly due to the slimmer Titanium design and addition of the Action Button. Therefore, you’ll have to get a new case.

Q: What’s the difference between the iPhone 14 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro?

While both offer “Pro” features, ultimately, the differences in the iPhone 14 and iPhone 15 Pro models come down to three things: The iPhone 15 Pro features an Action Button instead of the mute button toggle, USB-C charging rather than lightning charging, and the A17 chipset for faster performance.

Q: What factors should you look for when selecting an iPhone 15 Pro case?

Protection: Finding the right case depends on what you want to prioritize, but one of the most important should be that the case protects your phone. Every case listed here will do that. Keep in mind that most protective phone cases typically feature shock-absorbing materials like silicone or rubber, often combined with a hard exterior shell and raised edges — particularly around the screen and camera — to prevent these areas from making direct contact with surfaces when dropped.


MagSafe capabilities: Let’s talk about MagSafe. Like all new iPhones, the 15 Pro comes with MagSafe, which enables wireless charging with magnetic-based accessories. MagSafe can be blocked out by incompatible phone cases. We’ve included MagSafe versions of all the cases we’ve selected. If you don’t plan to use MagSafe charging, you can get standard versions of all of these cases as well. We would still recommend going with the MagSafe version, as there are pretty compelling MagSafe accessories like wallets and battery packs.

Style and personalization: Finding a good iPhone case is also about matching your style. For us, the sleek style of Apple’s new FineWoven cases has the most appeal. They are made of 68% recyclable material called microtwill, which is comparable to suede. Part of the sharp look you get with a FineWoven case is thanks to its snap-into-place design. The cases also come in five colors: Pacific blue, black, taupe, evergreen, and mulberry. If faux-suede isn’t your style, there are also clear cases from Spigen and DBrand, which allow you to actually see all the iPhone Pro 15 in its intended glory. On the opposite end of the spectrum is the Gripmunk case from Smartish, which offers a ton of customization. Just choose the personalized section and upload any print you’d like, or design your own.


Protection: Finally, if protection is top of mind, you have to go with the Otterbox Defender Series XT. Its polycarbonate shell might not be as eye-catching as some of the others on this list, but I have a two-year-old who loves to spike my phone as if scoring a touchdown, and my old Otterbox case still somehow has my iPhone 14 Pro looking like it did the day I bought it.
